Can anyone explain how a SP esp a HORDE SP can have two fears ? Is this a horde talent , Azerite Trait or ??? Just dont get how they have two fears ?

Describe / provide evidence of the situation, but from what you’ve said they can’t. No.

Was in a BG against Russians and a SP feared me - then everyman for himself released me and then he feared me for the second time. I know it was only him cause we were on a one on one combat with no other players around. Its not the first time its happened in a RBG - often come across a single SP fearing twice. - I will log a report as I cannot name the player on here. But its as much as I thought.

Are you sure you are not confusing the Psychic Scream with the Horror? Both are visually the same with the “fear” animation. Just that the horror is a stun on a seperate cooldown.

NO I am sure. As is you cannot have psychic horror and I am assuming you mean Mind Bomb at the same time. SP dont have scream unless I am missing it on my spell list.

Shadow priests have Psychic Scream baseline.
Mind Bomb is a modification talent for Psychic Scream and replaces it.

If you pick Psychic Horror you instead get the extra skill “Psychic Horror” and can thus use Psychic Scream(AoE fear) and Psychic Horror(ST stun) at the same time.

again either way YOU CANNOT HAVE TWO

You can have psychic scream and psychic horror yes. First is an aoe fear, second is a single-target stun. Horror does not replace scream.

You can have both Psychic Horror and Psychic Scream at the same time.

The Talent Row allows you to either;
Reduce the cooldown on your silence.
Change your Psychic Scream into Mind Bomb.
Or
Give you access to the Extra Skill Psychic Horror.

By picking Psychic Horror you will then have Psychic Scream and Psychic Horror aviable to you at the same time. This allows you to; Fear a Enemy, they use trinket and then you can if needed follow it up with a Stun.

Just look around your own skills as a shadow priest and you will find it out on your own.

Ok but then that answers the original question. So you can have two fears. As i said we were in single combat so he obv used Horror, then Scream which gives the impression of two fears.

Horror isnt a fear, its a stun, but it just visually looks like a fear. But yes shadow is capable of having that, and psychic scream at once.

U cannot use human racial for fear. Well technicaly u can…but it wont do anything. Its stun only, that should be a hint.

Dispels against SP could cause backlash. Short fear like debuff. Any chance you pressed MD/dispel?

Thanks all its been resolved and I must say using both Fear and Horror in BG is fun :):rofl:
