Blizzard Address Shadow Priest In the near future

Pain of death build

This is why blizzard should add VT application on to mind blast and make mind bender a permanent pet this build is 20 times funnier to dps as than void clunk rng boring build.

Each time you hit a cleave with mind bender it feels like damage also it lets you move while doing damage they should Improve on this and remove void form garbage.

Eeeh no mind blast shouldnt be adding DoTs thats legit just deleting one of our DoTs as a ability.

Not to mention what problem does it rly fix.

Its seems more alike you just want the class to be easier to play with such a change. And no. No permanant pets. Aff locks around the corner for that.

We dont need be anymore alike aff lock realistically.

Overall damage is poor, the build is bad. Its not even comparable.

A permanent pet would be terrible. Thats the part i dislike most with playing warlock.

make it a option for those who don’t want to be stuck waiting for void form RNG luck base game and be at bottom d tier list dps.

Or you could learn how to play Shadowpriest and not be the worst dps.

I know how to. Just dont like how blizzard makes it like legion every time people complaints they can’t do VT.

You, a full 100% do not know how to play.

Yet i got 2k rateing all by my self and will go for 2500 rateing all by my self as well.

Doesnt change the fact that you are a bad player. You are literally calling it all the time by yourself.

It would fix the down time on Mindbender play also they should add so you get 2 mind blast recharges on Dark Ascension then this gameplay would be fun.

Having some sort of dot application on to our main ability like druids would had helpt shadow a bit like druid their dot application is nice they applied dots on their dots to 4 different targets which they can spam no cd.

I think having VT applicated on Mind blast and Shadow word pain applied on SWD would had been fun then they could get rid of those dots clogging up your spell bar make them applied to 4 targets. Think going forward blizzard should just bake them in to our ability’s that they do it passively then even the mind spike proc spec would make sense then.

They need to walk away from void form stationary play and make shadow priest mobile we are still in the 2010 state of gameplay stationary play which is just very dull and boring.

I think blizzard personally can make the class better than what this fiesta is now.

Then revert mind sear and add shadow crash to a spender then they are rid of this RNG luck

Personally i think having shadow crash as a spender and devouring as a spender would make shadow more mobile also having Mindblast applied 4 VT on targets and Shadow word death apply instant SWP on to four targets would had been fun

No it wouldnt because mindbender would have to be nerfed in exchange, also torment would need removing.

You cant just have a permanant pulse, every other class has to deal with its maximum dps being locked behind CDs we arent different to that rule.

Ur argument to make a DoT tied to mindblast is to remove stationary play. And then want a reversion to a ability thats a built channel?

You reliese old mind seer and current mind flay are the 2 largest culprits for its stationsry gameplay right?

You call the specc a fiesta, yet it seems you dont actually know what u want. The removal of mind sears old function has made its aoe rotation more mobile then it was prior.

Again incorrect. This would set the class up for severe ST nerfs, as its AoE balancing would be done through its ST abilities.

As both these abilities woule require balancing due to becoming multi functional. Removing GCDs leads to nerfs to each ability to balance us out.

This would likely result in us being nerfed in ST to compensate the additions.

Why not

Just condense void torrent into dark ascension, just change its aoe animation to a bunch of ravens.

Then buff devouring plague and mindblast to aid our ST.

Add shadow word pain spread to first tick of mind sear.

I cah agree i dont like the idols. Feel like half the time he spawns when we dont need em so maybe those would be a good point to rework into proper passives.

This would remove some bulk from the raid Build as more passives would be taken, itd asd us back to atleast 1 DpT spread avaliable. And would help our ST rotation.

Just rejuggle the tree abit and rework a few passives and this build could fit very well. And hopefully instead of continous reworks we actually see blizzard actually develope the class

That they did but backwards.- No aoe on demand no instant cast CDs unless pvp everything undertuned and loads of buggs and tanks sometimes dealing more dps than us in m+ on some pulls.

WE go oom after 1 shield and one mass dispell which we didnt in Season 4 shadowlands.

Welp thats life guess devs are sleeping.

I can agree Searing night mare was unfun but still did more dps than this rng crap.

We traded Unlimited dot cleave to a 30sec sloppy joe (shadow crash) 50-50 chance hitting targets with 8 dots.

The devs has no idea what they want anymore xD

If you think this is a though after rework you got to be joking. Its just a fan service to people who want to play legion priest again but a even worse reworked one blizzard need to go away from this crap and make 1 version for people who don’t want to deal with this crap just want to play priest without Mind sear costing recourses and having some dot cleave with fun mechanic stacking up.

S4 shadow priest beats this crap anyway logs proves that. The dev team will have to rework this crap anyhow in the next expack since logs shows it only works for pvp.

80 quid for a legion rework thanks.

We asked for some decent spender like Cascade to come back or something else not for mind sear to get nerfed it was good to have an aoe for small adds spawns in raid to push a aoe thing down and kill them its just a constipated clostro*** rework.

If they buffed our dots to 10k more dps it still deal next to nothing because we have no aoe now neither a dot cleave on demand I see streamers who still by reflexes press Mind sear now when you can only press it once. Good rework blizzard :stuck_out_tongue:

not

Do you play SP because you enjoy it or because you enjoy whining all the time?

Lol. Sure after it got major passive buffs to make it work.

I swear u didnt play legion… lol, how can u honestly think todays priest is remotely close to legions?

Is still a thing and you now need to deal 25 insanity to keep it up and its mandatory again because people can’t go away from the dull and boring design.

It gives blizzard less creativity and now the specc has to suffer for it.

Showing in our plummet from rank 4th on dps down to 21st

Also that void form has to be a thing at all after 7 years of people hating it mind blows me.

They could make 2 shadow specs one with void form for people who are selfish who dont want to help your raid killing adds and one for people who want to play the funnier side of helping you raid killing adds and not being locked killing the boss and 1 add that survives for 1min and ignore the other adds since we don’t have mind sear to help anymore.

Because we need to do that on high health adds because blizzard listen to wow andy crew.

Shadowlands shadow design in season4 was the most fun the specc was to getting back to the roots again then blizzard had to listen to asmondballd. Make void form in to the game again.

This is what happens when you listen to people who don’t play the class.

I play it because I like it. But i talk about what i dislike because my opinion of what’s fun is different from what’s shown in game. I think a spec should help your raid not be locked hitting one add with high health and not dot adds because they die to fast. and right now mind sear as a spender don’t work because it does not help your raid crew killing small adds.

Which is shown at raid logs.

Im’ not worried tho because blizzard will have to rework this coming out from Dragonflight.

The existance of 1 ability doesnt make it legion by default.

Void eruption today doesnt mechsnically work alike it did. Now its a simple AoE ability which has a ST counterpart to it.

The base gameplay of legion is nothing like today.

Its just a CD at this point, lol its nothing more realisticslly.

Its like saying SP needs to go away from Classis, because SW:Pain is still a DoT we need to apply.

No, it was the same trash it has been all the Shadowlands Expansion with just higher numbers. 99,9% would agree.

No, you do not talk. Its 100% no problem to discuss about deficites, but you are not able to do so. You do not response to counters and quote only words that suits you. And whats most important, you do not accept proven statistics.

Voidform’s resemblance to the mechanics of shadow in legion and bfa remains in name alone. Being so hung up on the fact the button exists despite the fact it is literally just a cooldown really confuses me. It’s just icy veins that for some reason has a cast time and adds and extra button.

I feel like the development team doesnt have a clear vision of what they want shadowpriest to be. Dont think the player base does either. One half loves the tentacle form and the other wants vanilla priest back.
I would rather have it resemble more vanilla but it would need some heavy game play modernisation cause vanilla priest was boring as heck. I do like insanity and the idea of teetering between sane and mad is an interesting idea but atm it doesnt work.
They probably also dont want to be doing a huge rework because it takes time and money hence all the “new” talents are actually old talents with old graphics.

Exactly this. At this point I don’t really care what Shadow Priest is or becomes, I just want something that knows what it is from the ground up.

We need a Peter Jackson figure.
