yes. and check this week and Shadow is Much higher.

Heres that sites disclaimer
We say perspective, as there are inherent biases in looking at the data this way.
Specs considered underpowered are generally played less and tend to appear weaker than they are.
This happens as many performance-oriented players tend to play the strongest spec or class, increasing the gap between top and bottom specs even further.
even the evidence u take such from… in the first sentences explains why the logs their presenting arent actually accurate.
also.
Comparing a Class in its first month of Creation.
to one which has had 2 years of development on it.
Simply isnt justifying.
Season 4, released no new raid, which means everyone entered with full tier sets, Fully geared and BiS rewards already claimed. which means everyone walked in fully powered.
Shadow’s multi dotting is weaker than it has been in previous expansions, making spread cleave less of an important niche.
Shadow’s damage outside of cooldowns, and especially whilst cleaving, requires you to stand still to be most effective.
Shadow lacks powerful mobility choices and the ability to kite.
Heavy reliance on specific talent builds that are tailored to specific content.
compared to shadowlands shadow you could use soulshape blink it was way more fun and unlimited dotting with mind sear spam able was way more fun also living shadow did loads of damage and was fun this is just not there.
I beg to differ all they did was add back stress form to the mix but with a cd.
But blizzard gave they don’t care anymore face for the class imagination 0 out of 0 as usual just add back boring things since we can’t brain storm fun playstyles in to the mix.
Thats why mind sear is dead and a spender and our wave clear is gone and everything hits for nill and is skill shots
not fun at all i dont like that i go oom after one mass dispell flash heal or mind games all they did was trade something that worked and made you less mobile and with less cleave P: and now you goo oom too they should remove mana from shadow priest mass dispell and mind games and halo it does not make sense to have that.
If they want us to have utility which we don’t i think they should fix our mana problem.
Like i still dont understand why shadow still has mana cost on [Power Word: Shield][Renew] why shouldnt we be able to help our healer by applying [Power Word: Shield][Renew] and heals on our self’s while moving.
dont care about the aoe its boring and will probably stick until the rework next expack.
The mana issues are very boring today in jade temple i go oom just because when i applied [Power Word: Shield][Renew] Halo Mind games I don’t have enough mana to dispell i dont get why mass dispell should cost mana either its not as if ret paladins bubble cost any mana these days.
Still miss soulshape the blink mobility with covenants s4 shadowlands was the best state shadow has been.
Soulshape was good yea. In m+ state, i would say shadow was in the worst state ever been. It was complete trash, you literally had no interactions between all of your skills and it was even bad to use some core skills. It was almost just spamming SN which was braindead and the worst design ever have been implemented.
You still do not get anything whats this spec is about. Thats why you are just a bad player and think its boring. Its not. It has so much going on and every button you press now is worth to dish out amazing damage.
With 10.0.5 we get one of the best QoL stuffs ever. All in all SP now is one of the best m+ specs now. Would even call it the best ranged spec.
wonder how it be on Wednesday tho.
