Some more info today:
Looks like they’re fixing the Devouring Plague roll over.

Yup that was what that video posted a couple posts ago was about. They discovered it rolled over but the devs are just now mentioning it so at least now we know it’s not a bug and actually an intended change.
Fae Guardians just seems like a lost cause if you have to invest a conduit to make it work without clunkiness.

also some changes not noted: dissonant echos buffed significantly, meaning it has much more synergy with HV now

I’m wondering what the replacement talent for Legacy of the Void will be like. They didn’t elaborate on it at all other than saying it’ll be single target oriented.

Appears to currently be this…
Hungering Void
- Your second Void Bolt cast on the same target will deal 1% more damage, cause the target to receive 1% more damage from you for until cancelled, and extend the duration of your Void Form by 1 sec. If your Void Bolt critically hits, your Void Form is extended by 1 sec.

Makes this age well lol.

Shadow Priests reclaiming their class from Voidform after being told again and again to “accept it”.

I have played spriest since wrath, fell in love with the spec, mained it and thought I’d never look back. That was destroyed when they introduced voidform and I stopped playing it. Picked up my spriest again recently after hearing the changes and I’m so happy and excited to main it again in SLs.
Would give anything for shadow orbs/raven priests back, that was a fun freaking time.

As cringey and dated as that movie was, man do I love Skeletor. Hits all the right notes for a villain.

IMHO Frank Langella carried the movie.

I’m excited to dust my priest off and try it again.
Also remember being 6 when I saw that movie, and thinking it was legit.

He was absolutely amazing as Skeletor, hands down. Dude went all in HARD with that role. Absolute beast mode performance.
what do you mean we can also polymorph people?
Just want to say all of these tuning changes are confusing… Saw the spec aura change for shadow (and disc/holy) that went live on PTR already and they are separately tuning SW:P and a few other abilities? Or maybe it’s just a typo. Assuming most of these nerfs to the ability tooltips are offset by aura changes.
There’s a new spellsteal mechanic, where you temporarily steal a player’s ability to cast a certain spell for 20 sec or something…including things like fear and poly.

So weirdly enough, I felt like I do MORE damage now with these changes lol.
Has anyone played Spriest since the 25% nerf to all damage? Is it still good because 25% seems like a lot.
Sigh.
They nerfed the individual spell numbers.
And then they buffed the shadow priest spell aura by an equal amount.
It’s a total wash in terms of damage. Nothing was nerfed.
If anything, covenants affected by the aura received a net buff as a result of the changes.
Early days but it feels like Spriest teams will be a nightmare to fight for a lot of classes but particularly Mage.
Stealing Poly for 20 seconds completely ruins their set ups.
Shadow Word Death can break Polys.
Have Mass Dispel and offensive dispels.

Maybe they’ll finally put rmp in their place
I support this
Imagine the qq when not only does the mage or rogue get sheeped by a priest, but they can’t use sheep for the 20 seconds it’s stolen
Going to be great
