Shadow priest need BIG CHANGES AGAIN

Blizzard is only worth a couple of dollars after all.

As of October 20, 2024, it has come to my attention that within the Priest Shadow Talent Point system, there is a duplication of the “Shadow Crash” talent. This redundancy is causing functionality issues, as both instances of “Shadow Crash” do not work. It would be beneficial if the developers at Blizzard could address this error to prevent confusion and ensure the talent point system operates correctly.

They are slightly different.

One you pick the area on the ground to cast. This does not require a target so you can Precast it if targets will soon spawn for example.

The other requires a target to cast and it will follow that target if it moves but it will just disappear outright if the target does before the Shadow Crash lands.

It’s embarrassing too because it’s literally out of your control. Unsettling that there wasn’t an emergency hotfix.

Also, PSYCHIC LINK IS ALREADY CAPPED. Why is shadow crash capped again? It’s not like we have affliction dots, VT & SWP do no damage.

Need 2 talent points to have a 30sec interrupt.

No shadow related mobility

Only defensive CD as a squishy spriest is 2min Dispersion. MD nerfed since DF. Overall damage is great if you’re good at parsing, but it feels like they had a mechanically great class and had to go out of their way kneecapping it so that it wasn’t too strong in PVP?

SPriest light personal defensive is also like 3 globals to cast, which is insane. It means you have to big brain every encounter more than anyone else, to get like 20% DR
I’m talking about flash heal+fade.
It’s not satisfying to be so planted in a season that requires so much mobility.

I’m prob going to make some ppl mad for saying this but whoever at Blizzard is in charge of SP…they need to put them on another class or project cause they dont know what theyre doing. Sp has always been my favorite class and when I try to play it now it just feels clunky and like a pile of garbage. Shadowcrash is trash, apparitions feel like a tickle against mobs, we have no CC hardly, and no mobility. But hey, ppl at blizzard who are destroying the class know more than everyone else that actually plays the class.
