| worldofwarcraft.tgn.tv — DPS rundown series, episode 20 of 22 Shadow Priest! We look at the spec and rotation for a Shadow Priest, and analyze the testing results via Recount. All testing is done against a raid boss dummy with no buffs besides basic class abilities. Gear is level 333 premade junk. Shadow is a fun spec based around dots, Mind Blast, and, oddly, moving as much as possible. Thanks to a recent change in Shadow Orbs, you no longer need to concern yourself with stacking orbs and timing your dot refreshes. Instead, you can spend the orbs as often as you want, and you will permanently maintain the buff to your periodic shadow damage through a brand new buff called Empowered Shadow. Although this spec is quite similar to Affliction in a lot of ways, the constant motion thanks to the Shadowy Apparition talent does give it a unique spin compared to every other dps spec in the game. The addon used to track cooldowns and debuffs is DoTimer. Setup tutorial here: www.youtube.com |
