"99% of you should not even consider this spec" Me in normal mode gear: Im considering this spec

Thanks for the vid Pants!

Great video Pants!

this was great, thanks for taking the time

ty sir, shadow priest mains love it!

Oh yay, you got it out!

Hi Pants. What I'm doing after the 4 tier piece is a 16/0/55. 1 in Impr. PW:S (hwhen I'm in a tight spot, and the DiscP is busy, my shield helps) and 1 in Mental Agi for the mana savings while moving and casting SW:D and DP. On Sadow tree, no Imp MBlast. Instead, 2 in Imp Vamp Embrace and 3 in Focused Mind. Hope that helps ;) Keep up the fine vids! Cheers!

Yeah I think that’s a good spec too. You can even drop imp ve and put all 3 points into mental agility

and i thought i'm weird for having dots tracked by a weakaura, dots on a target unitframe and plater dots. good to see i'm not alone 😂

Could you tell me approx how much haste you had on this run and how much I should aim for as an spriest? thanks!

Great video as always, thanks for all these tips! What do you think of a spec with only 2/5 improved MB to get 2/2 improved VE and 3/3 focused mind?

Hey Pants, what is the WA/addon showing the dilay on mindflay/mind sear?

U are a gift to all wow players, past and future

VT on all 3 valks even with no t9? i always do it aswell, just feels somewhat bad in the groups im in, the valks die too slow i guess?. thanks for the insight on every fight.

Is it still better to double haste pot on fights like DBS/Fester/BQL? If I know I can keep the juiced SW:P up I've still been using Wild Magic pre-pot. Depends on fight length maybe? Also - I have been using the "dont cast mindflay" weakaura and it seems like MB is still an integral part of my rotation outside of lust/gloves (4pc, 6111 GS, 847 haste unbuffed). Maybe with DFO/more static haste it makes sense to remove MB?

What is that weakaura that shows red ring around vile spirits?

which weakaura is it where is shows a red circles aorund vile spirits on LK?

Hey Pants, great guide! Recently got my 4piece and just wondering if mind blast is still part of the rotation? I've just respecced after watching this video and took the points out of imp. mind blast and decided on the 2 extra to be in disc tree for 1/3 mental agility + the PW:shield 5%. Is it better in rotation to just spam mind flays now?

Watch my video called “do shadow priests want to cast mind blast” for an answer to that question. TLDR yes you still cast it

Does SWP still snap shot ? any nerfs on it?

hey I had a question: I notice on ur Castbar the last bit of your channel is coloured red so as to indicate when you should press your spells to not clip and maximize dps. What addon/weakaura is this?

For Sindy, I've been experimenting with continuing to spam DP or SWD when the first aoe happens, so that your stacks don't drop, giving you just a bit more time to move away from the group and then dispersion. My only concern at the moment is i'm not 100% how the debuff goes away... does it only go away when u let it drop (and u no longer have unchained magic targeted at you) or is there a point where regardless of what you cast, you no longer get stacks so it inevitably falls off? If it's the latter, then there is still a risk with my approach to the aoe pull, if not, then holding off dispersion and continuing to cast during the aoe pull si definitely a nice approach

The main debuff unchained magic lasts 30 seconds. Every time you cast you get a new stacking debuff that lasts 6 seconds. It refreshes every time you cast and when that second debuff times out you explode. After you explode you continue getting stacks if you cast (and continue exploding) until unchained magic disappears

@@Pants_Gaming Gotchaaa, ok so making sure it doesn't drop during that pull might be the move. On normal it's chill, on Heroic, i'm still a little scared to do that and wipe the raid

Isn’t it 12yards spread in blood council?

i noticed a few times in this video where you didnt have concentration aura up which caused some -0.2 pushback hits on mind flay. does getting pushback on mind flay cause us to lose out on an entire tick of damage? or does it actually help make it complete faster?

you just lose the last tick.

I'm having this issue too, where I just totally lose the last tick but waste a lot of time before getting to the new channelling. I have been rechanelling MF after the second tick in fights where there is constant push back. Unsure what else I can do.

@Lories7

8 ай бұрын

mind flay basically just deals damage on 1/3, 2/3s and 3/3s of the uninterrupted cast time, so your clip timing doesnt change if you clip - but if you notice being interrupted once then you can clip after the 2nd tick for no dps loss yes@@Scottysaweet

What is the name of this WA from Shadow Priest?

If we drop improved mind blast, do we still cast mind blast? I am thinking of leaving 2 points in improved mind blast if we still cast it.

You need to cast it on a VT to get your replen.

Hey Pants! How skilled are you at creating WA's? I made an attempt to creating one to alert when Pungent Blight on fester begins to cast but it failed. Trying to not tunnel so hard on Fester and make the fight even more mind numbingly easy. Lol

I am not good with Weakauras but someone in the shadow priest discord could probably help you out

Re Gunship gunnery build up your heat before "fight start", and then just spam heat dump. some mathy boios (source, i can't remember where) found out the 2 damage increase from heat is linear, so you do the exact same dps by spamming 2 as you do building it up.

So you're always using speed potion right ?

@gjoeyjoe6591

8 ай бұрын

in-combat potion will always be speed potion. pre-pot will depend on fight conditions (how long can you maintain your snapshot SWP, mostly). So fights like festergut where you can keep up your original SWP the whole time makes Wild Magic better than usual, but Putricide it's less likely you'll personally keep it up. Best bet is to sim the situation you're interested in seeing which pot is better.
