Hi All,
I am trying to decide on a legendary for my shadow priest for world questing /Korthia etc. For dungeons /raids i holy so not to worry there as i have Flash concentration. I cannot decide between Shadowflame or Talbadar for quality of life improvement. I am Kyrian Cov if that matters. Thoughts? One is very single target and the other is more AOE i guess.
Appreciate some feedback

I typically quest with Talbadar.
Part of that is I like Void Torrent as it gives me a good insanity generator if I happen to miss on Death and Madness (usually because I crit with a MB cast). I found that combination means my biggest challenge when solo is burning all the insanity. While not technically AoE, being able to basically spam SW:D, get Insanity, get procs on MB, and Void Torrent, I can spread out DOTs and focus so quickly it burns stuff down way faster.
Also to me, its just more fun to run with, having a talent that I can use every 30s vice every 60s.
I haven’t compared DPS of the two, but from a feel standpoint, I just like Talbadar more for solo world stuff.
Talbs is better single target for kyrian also. Personally I quest with talbs if I’m thinking about it, because of void torrent and generally less cooldown reliant damage.
Sfp isn’t necessarily just for AoE btw, other covenants use it on single target, it’s just hard to put all that power down when mobs live 10 seconds. You just end up ‘spinning your wheels’ so to speak.
