AoE - Shadow is frustrating at best

They should just make it a target one guy dot cleave :confused: target lock then it deals damage over time and spread VT to all targets near the target.

Bake Halo in to SC

ITs kind of boring hope paladin rework is better than this xD

I think this is worst design since void form the man who made this happend needs to end his wow life.

its about how left out priest is in general :stuck_out_tongue:

Gone in to the void of never coming back since blizzard dev team took a covid break. :stuck_out_tongue: hereā€™s hoping next expack is better.

Shadow feels like a claustrophobic experience to play. Their aoe is like so complex and also ST compared to other expacks. What the heck is blizzard team doing xD

This version is weird. Why is Mind sear a spender?

This is definitely better than before when we had literally the same thing but worse searing nightmare which we had to spam, most boring rotation we could possibly have, I cannot understand people wanting searing nightmare back. For mind sear when it was not a spender, it was a boring filler which was basically mindflay but additional button that dinā€™t even do damage. I recommend watching some quides on our rotation its simple once you get the hang of it.

why are players only happy, if theres litterally 0 risk of failure, almost seems like a allergy to anything remotely difficult.

Shadow crash is Pretty damn easy to land, and extremely effective. it requires a small amount of brain power, to skill shot the ability sure. but i dont rly understand why this is such a issue.

Shadow priests only fall atm is its builds basically ā€œLets take every active in the entire talent treeā€ which can make the class feel extremely bloated.

Ill agree on hills in no Hunk Dungeon it doesnā€™t hit the targets.

Good design by blizzard.

While this is all true I think itā€™s a valid concern to have that a spec requires a 30s cooldown spell to be available to be able to do any AoE damage on a given pull. Having mastery, screams, nzoth, and psychic link rely on all the mobs youā€™re in combat with be dotted to do relevant damage is kinda overkill.

It just sucks it feels frustrating to play with when you didnā€™t have to in Shadowlands. Its like a forced play treatment one disliked by many. Blizzard ainā€™t doing anything in 10.7 to make it better its like a we donā€™t see a problem we ignore it treatment.

Granted its CD isnt ideal, i dont think the spell needs deleting

Blizzard has done alot shadow. Its now a meta dps specc lol. Granted some chsnges are weird given they bloated the m+ rotation in the process. But its defintly performing alot better

Making a 30 sec a mandatory thing saying its better when its just frustration on top of a toilet with constipation. Then saying its something good then force feeding you that smelly thing in to your mouth when you could choose not to take it in Shadowlands and be happier and actually deal damage is like what it sounds like and plays like.

not arguing over dps its the playstyle that Sucks.

The devs does not show any interest in the class.-

Issue is, thats a very opinonated argument, i think SLs variant sucked and one season managed to bandaid it enougu to be playable.

It was fun compared to this crap fiesta you could stack living shadow to 2min deal top dps then spam macro mind sear with seraing nightmare

Unlimited dot spreadā€¦ with searing nightmare 100% hit chance.

then this crap ability forced down your throat shadow crash

8 targets ā€¦ 8 targets what about the other 40+ adds

(blizzards HQ)

lets not forget mind sear cost spending now so screw you paladin gets to spam hammers what do shadow get nutting beta treatment. Not even a 10.7 notes in making us not so crap. We relies on a Physic link ability padding talents.

might as well go prot paladin they deal more dps

Ye. No anything is more fun then SLs garbage.

SL was fun better than this crap I could top dps meters then and it was fun.-

Didnt have to play shadow crash garbage.

ever since legion the devs just thinks skill shots should be in the game just to make frustration when something is fun they just remove it instead of improving that.

Paladin is getting love priest aint.

I played a few more M+ with my SP. What a messed up design.

On packs you need VT which means you need Shadow Crash. Without it your AoE is worth nothing.

But there are obstacles, Shadow Crash is thematically and visually great, but almost useless unless the pack is almost stationary, and on a 30 sec CD, so awkward to use.

Without VT on every mob you have no Psychic Link, no damage, no insanity, no Mind Sear.

I cannot understand how professional Blizzard developers cannot make wonderful classes. The devs should leave the office every day, proud they have made fantastic classes, but instead we see this shambles of designs.

I disagree massively.

SL shadow sucked 1 tier set managing to carry it doesnt make its design good.

Is the current shadow perfect? No. But its 10x better then anything we hVe had since legion

Its frustration on top of 5 abilityā€™s why canā€™t they make 2 different specs for shadow that works one for people that donā€™t want to play void form legion wanna be rework and one for people that want to play mindbender.

So almost every class gets a change or buff. But spriest gets nothing. Spriest dps rotation is still horrible. So when you DP because of free procs but have every other skills up and your mind flay proc is yelling at you. ā€œPRESS MEā€ yet it does no dmg. After your burst phase you are stuck doing a weak rotation with clunky spell procs. Spriest aoe is RNG while other classes aoe = 2 button and doesnā€™t required a big cd. "again my 390 BM hunter does the same amount of dmg as my 410 spriest. 99% update BM hunter even with mechanic.

Just saying its not only me.
