Shadow Priest needs more defensive abilities plain and simple. Bliz, please bring back Void Tendrils or something to root attacking mobs. Since I am in the requesting mood, maybe a blink so I could kite faster or “Shadow” where I go into stealth.
I know, I could just play my mage, druid, or rogue but SPriest play style with Void form is so unique. Shooting-out my purple death beam with Mind Sear is so fun to use.
Nazjatar is an amazingly beautiful zone; however, I have died about 10 times just trying to get around to do 7 quests. The mobs are highly concentrated, move quickly about, and respawn super fast . SPriest ramp-up time for sufficient DPS takes too long.
I use Shout and I draw more mobs just trying to get out of jam. Psychic Horror has a 45 second cool down. I cannot fire any DPS while moving. My Body and Soul shield doesn’t help for much protection. My Shadowfiend doesn’t last long enough or do enough damage or live long enough with some many mobs.
I don’t have a pet or can kit like on my mage. No stealth or rooting like on my Druid. Kidney shot, blind, and vanish are absent as well. I cannot health regent like on my warrior.
Spriest needs some love Bliz. I did end up switching to my rogue and leveling in Nazjatar is now enjoyable and I can stay alive without any problems. It feels great to finally get some quests done and experience the new zone. It looks awesome!
Please don’t respond to this thread with “Don’t suck” or something that isn’t constructive. I am not that good of a player, but I sure enjoy the game. I started playing WOW when I was 43 years old and I am now 52, so my response time isn’t what it was when I was younger.
More love from Bliz with more defensive abilities or instant DPS would be awesome. I sure would appreciate any suggestions for improving as well. Thanks in advance.
