You get to play a new spec every single xpac

Sometimes multiple times per xpac

Shadow aoe feels great because it allows you to have a diverse rotation at all target counts as opposed to devolving into button mashing as resource economy and target count increase.

Wish I could. Insanity and it’s obnoxious spenders are such a put off.

(Even though I do love me some Shadow Priest).

There is a cool down that gives you tentacles.

2000, 2000, priest here. 2000
Do I hear 2500? 2500. 25 for the priest. Any takers on 2500?

Generally speaking when someone says “sell me on it” it does mean “convince me that I need it or would like it” so I’m not sure how he read it wrong.

“Convince me” != “I don’t understand why you’d ever do this”

30

I wouldn’t go that far but it’s more “I don’t understand why I would ever do this, so tell me why.”

If you need to be sold on something you obviously don’t have a current interest in it, right?

31

Ok

32

Idk seems pointless to even argue about but his first point is obviously correct. But hey, that’s the GD M.O.

Sell me on it = convince me to like it. Meaning you’re starting from a point of disinterest or dislike at the least.

33

I mostly like to heal, but Shadow is pretty fun. I made this priest specifically to be shadow, and wont allow myself to change her to a healy spec. I enjoy leveling her, and dabbling in low content

34

This is correct

That is a personal interpretation / assumption.

My assumption is the OP wouldn’t have created a thread if this was their baseline.

The OP has also largely affirmed this, considering:

35

If you need to be convinced to like it then you do not currently like it or have interest in it. Hope this helps bro.

Then he never needed to make the thread or be sold on it.

There’s a zone between not liking and not hating things and we call that the neutral or disinterested zone.

Or you’re not familiar with a topic, are interested in that topic, and would like discussion around the topic, like the OP has already said, effectively verbatim.

So anyways. I would sell you on shadow priest by saying you can be a dark and edgy bad boi that melts faces with laser beams. IMO the spec has some of the best animations in the game and when played well has incredible damage.

Idk what there is to not like about it.
