Can shadow priest plz get some damage back?

I can perform miles ahead better on my MM, than I do on my SP, on equal M+ key levels - that being around the +10 - though, from what I’ve heard, MM struggles at higher keys because of its limited AoE buff

true and true yeah xD i’m mostly salty that we cant AoE more then 6 targets

so does priest

That doesn’t tell anyone anything, and yes. I think the point here is that it’s much easier to play badly on other specs and still do ok. If you play poorly on an SP then it literally just sucks.

People don’t take SPs not necessarily because they can’t do well, it’s more because even an average of kinda bad DH will do good enough, whereas sp kinda needs to be good to do anything.

Most m+ players also have had at least 1 bad experience with an underperforming sp, while a DH who is technically underperforming to what they’re capable of is still doing good enough.

Still leveling mine though.

A bit off-topic but:
You know, when I initially leveled my MM on BFA, I didn’t enjoy it at all. Especially because the azerite stuff was brand new, and I was using that azerite that increases Aimed Shot damage with each Steady Shot, so it was painfully boring so I dropped it pretty early on.
Then, three months ago or so I did a M+ on my priest, and there was a MM doing good damage, so it inspired me to pick mine again. And now I find it pretty enjoyable for PvE. I love them huge aimed shot crits - though, it’s still terrible to do arena with

It’s hard to give comprehensive advice in a forum discussion typing from my phone in bed with flu like symptoms, but I hope I’ve been able to help clear this up enough. Fact is shadow can do fine, it just takes a lot of setup and effort, and while the numbers in raiding are actually starting to show, the damage delivery makes them sub par when every relevant part of the last two mythic bosses is a 10 second burst DPS check. Something shadow is woefully bad at.

I love PvE with mine, ive mostly ever played MM since i started xD and everything with 6> less target is like cutting through them like butter. And yeah PvP is rough around the edges xD

I dont play this game anymore, just do 15 weekly. With corruptions shadow is not able to shine anymore. On tyrranical week big packs die before you dot them, on forti they dont last long enough to profit from crit. As season 3 was well balanced, now free corruption damage on 2 melee + tank make things vanish in no time.

I was like lol what noxxic is still going? That site is a huge meme, it’s trash and has always been.

The bosses in your keys don’t even have any hp. Of course you won’t do any damage if you don’t have time to ramp up because they melt like butter.

How do they not have hp in 20 keys exactly, when compared to an 8? You have more than enough time to ramp up in a 20 on tyrannical.

This is absolutely hilarious to read considering you’re playing a DEMON HUNTER.

Shadow Priest is busted and utter garbage. The work they have to put in is double most other specs. Talking more bs as usual.

I thought only corruption matters now.

Though you assume he’s implying that shadow does comparable or good damage in mythic plus, everything he said is still true.

The character in question, set up as it is on his armory, should have almost no expectations to perform going into mythic plus.

Even corruptions must be simmed, to make certain the amount of side effects you will get are worth the increase in dps.

TD will be better on aoe than not having it. No need for sims.

that would give them pleasure also not only dps. while the rest of us do chores-aka pressing buttons and grinding stuff thats useless in a few months
