Shadow Priest got this nerf and yes it was nerf 2 phases ago because I guess pvp tears. I am not asking for any nerfs of other classes because there is enough of those but this rune change should of never happened. You forced Shadow Priests to choose between our best dot or only good defensive.
So please restore Void Plague to Chest or another rune spot other than boots.
The devs hate us and want us to suffer.
Shadow priest now have 3 dots. If you were also able to go immune to damage well 3 dots melt your face off. I think that will cross the line of making shadow the strongest PVP class in the game by a mile. It’s a fine line that I don’t think they can cross. Without breaking shadow in PVP.
Shadow will go to being oppressive again like it was in phase 3 if they change it back.
Druids have more dots and better dots than shadow priest at this point. I guess the class will just be relegated to the trash can because hypothetical Andys like you think it “might be oppressive” in the most oppressive pvp environment WoW has ever seen.
That means druids need a nerf, not that shadow priests need a buff
Shadow priest dots tick as hard as Druid dots. They also last longer per cast. You have fear/silence if you add in a 2 min cd that negates anyone’s stun or CC chain on you and also allows you to go immune to damage well your 3 dots melt ppl… You basically just want to be overpowered again. There is a reason why it was nerfed.
Agreed, they need to un-nerf shadow priests. Dots tick for not even 200 dmg and without dispersion we just get obliterated. Practically free kills, especially vs melee lol get into melee and die in seconds. VP definitely needs to be on the chest rune slot again.
C’mom, VT ticks for like 130/3sec? SW:P for maybe 200/3sec. VP for what 300/3sec?
You melted in p2 maybe…in p5 you’re barely sweating and you know it
Spriest kinda suck in SoD tbh. VP should be on chest. Instead it will show as faded rune if you did not replace it and it auto switched over to feet.
VP used to be a lot more powerful. Blizz just couldn’t stand to have a Spriest possibly out performing a shaman or a druid which it would have if VP had scaled up properly and stayed on chest to stack with feet rune, not outright replace it.
This is not p2. dots do crap damage, people have 10k+ hp and VE healing was made worthless in pvp. Shadow is basically a free kill. Not to mention how badly itemized the shadow pvp set is. low SP and mp5 really!?..
put void plague on legs actually, putting it on chest would be a dps loss since we’d be losing twisted faith. shadow priests are in a fair spot on the charts rn and should stay that way. giving homunc up for vp is probably a better outcome anyways.
A viable leg rune that did not result in DHKs would be nice.
Pallies can global people while bubbled, I guess only that class is allowed to be powerful. Kind of strange too because you can dispel shadow priest dots…but no such counter exists for pallies, especially now that you can’t even run from them anymore.
Holy cow level.
They do, but not that they should. Nerf boomkins
this right here. if pallies can global people while bubbled, spriests should be able to dot people while dispersed. The right thing to do would be to just nerf all damage from their dots while dispersion is active, and of course nerf pallies bubble as well.
Ehh no, VP should not return to chest. Twisted Faith is far more important than you think. IMO VP should be on the leg slot so you can choose either Mind Sear, or Shared Pain. In P2 Shadow Priests nuked people for about 2 weeks. Yes we have 3 dots but they don’t tick for very much anymore. There are people in BG’s with 10k health. VP does about 2k damage over 30 seconds lol. We can’t kite for 30 seconds when we only have 1 fear. We are sitting ducks for literally any melee. They have moved quite far down the list of most oppressive in PVP next to mages
