Mind Sear Hitting 30k Per Tick on PTR

Anyone else watch Anboni’s new video the other day? With Mind Sear traits and in Void Form, Mind Sear is critting 30k per tick, 15k normal ticks wearing 340 ilvl trait gear. So let’s say you somehow crit every time, which wouldn’t happen, but you’d be doing 120k AoE damage. Even non crit he was saying would be 60k by just AoE alone.

Bow to your Shadow overlords. Hope this gets fixed though, that’s just stupid.

Wat? Azerite traits causing massive game imabalances? I am so surprised this has never happened before.

I remember this one time on Cata PTR, cloak of shadows was removing all debuffs, not just magical. Could cloak off a Disarm.

Obviously, this didn’t make it live. But I just hope this is a similar thing.

AOE - ID Drain Life Ticks levels with stacking traits for shadow priests.
Doesn’t shock me that blizzard would miss something like this.
maybe I can queue with a SP and have some shadow play. dots sear and then ID drain.

i went and tested on ptr. I did it a bit diff with added burst trinkets i use with my live toon. and void elf racial with some slightly better traits. i can consistently hit 80k+ burst cycles with it. AND normal flays without the proc can hit 15-20k no proc

They’re so stupid in PvP. I wish they would just disable them already. It seems to proc a lot too from VT so it could potentially be used back to back. You’d kill the whole team if they were stacked.

Does it have some sort of internal restriction or does it proc more the more VTs you have up?

Trying it with 4 horde buddies now. It procs ALOT with how many u have up. so no internal restrictions it seems
https ://imgur.com/a/OnB9NhP heres one on just dummies. Its hitting rediculously hard. testing on people now.

Dang, I’m on mobile and it won’t let me zoom in without destroying the quality.

considering this OP trait came into the limelight so soon, it’ll hopefully be nerfed before 8.1 and avoid problems

hopefully…

Yeah, I want Shadow to be good, but this is just silly and should be displayed so it gets known and fixed.

On the brightside. If it gets nerfed i can still run double spiteful apparitions and 1 death throes. Because 2 for whatever reason makes u hit 10k each ghosty. Mini shadow word deaths for everyoneeee

Efx spoiling the surprise
