Best Raiding and M+ Potency Conduits for Discipline Priest

Since Spirit Shell is the primary playstyle Exaltation synergizes along nicely making it the ideal pick for a potency conduit. Swift Penitence is a solid increase, predominantly for Mythic+, where every potential damage increase can make the runs go more smoothly but Shining Radiance is more helpful when dealing with Prideful for the extra bonus healing it provides. Raiding with both conduit slots Exaltation/Shining Radiance, mythic+ with both Shining Radiance/Swift Penitence.

Best Endurance Conduits for Discipline Priest

Conduit	Description	Raid verdict	Mythic+ Verdict
Charitable Soul	Casts a small shield on yourself when you Shield an ally. Due to how nerfed Power Word: Shield has been, these shields aren't much.	Minor HPS gain	Minor HPS gain
Light's Inspiration	Provides a HoT effect on top of the Desperate Prayer defensive.	Minor HPS gain	Minor HPS gain
Translucent Image	Causes your Fade to provide damage reduction on demand. Priests defensives are limited so having any sort of damage reduction is very helpful.	Best

Endurance conduits are much better and more universal than Finesse conduits. Between raids and Mythic+, you'll often want to run the same conduits.

Best Finesse Conduits for Discipline Priest

Conduit	Description	Raid verdict	Mythic+ Verdict
Clear Mind	Situational use on encounters with frequent dispels.	Niche	Dungeon specific
Mental Recovery	There's plenty of other slows in the game. This is either for PvP or World quests	Useless
Power Unto Others	Grants slight cooldown reduction to Power Infusion when you utilize it on an ally. Okay for Mythic+	Weak	Niche
Move with Grace	Now reduces the cooldown on Leap of Faith. Rarely do you ever need to use grip on cooldown.	Useless

Most of the Finesse conduits are very niche or situational in their uses. Often you'll be best off grabbing double Endurance conduits to improve your survivability.
