Shadow priest!

Post#1 » 28 Sep 2012, 11:43

just a quick FYI for fellow shadow priest.

the enchant "Windsong" for weapons does not proc from dot dmg, only direct dmg and since we have very very few none dot dmg power torrent is actually better till you can get your hands on "jade spirit".

which i am working on very hard to obtain as fast as possible, then i will be willing to pass them out to whoever needs it, even non shadow priest!

Do you know if that applies to HoT's as well? If so, it would suck for a couple of healer classes (notably Druids) too.

im not sure actually, tried looking it up and didnt see anyone who has confirmed on wither it is same deal for HoTs, but i would assume it is the same deal as dots.

i sat on a dummy earlier for 5 minutes and windsong procd i think 4 times which is horrible.

it has a 15% proc chance and no internal CD

so if a druid or another HoT class wants i can supply enchant for free and we can test it out and see how often it procs.

edit: i did find a blue post that said this - Windsong: 1PPM on melee damage, or non-periodic spell damage/healing, with a 1-second cooldown.

so it does have a very short CD but looks like it wont proc from HoTs either...

Didn't really feel like making a new thread for this but....

Dead and I were chatting and watching our own logs today, but we noticed Twist of Fate talent significantly increased our personal dps. Before both of us had been using Divine Insight from T5 choices - but I think any encounter with adds Twist of Fate will work out much more nicely.

So just looking at bosses, keeping T1/2/3/4/6 still the same standard I think we can edge out more dps like this...

Stone Guards - Divine Insight
Feng - Divine Insight
Garajal - Twist of Fate (several adds inside that would provide the buff)
Spirit Kings - Divine Insight (there are those couple adds to burn, but I don't think it would justify taking Twist of Fate)
Elegon - Twist of Fate (sparks and adds between phases would provide good up-time on Twist of Fate, and for P3 getting that down faster is always better)
Emperor - Twist of Fate (tons of adds, obviously)

Previous weeks I had been using only Divine Insight, until the last few pulls on Emperor today. I think this is the set up I'll go with between my 2 specs from now on.

Power Infusion is nice for a Spine like fight, but I just don't think we've come across anything that requires that real quick burst in a short time yet. Elegon would be the closest imo, but I think Twist of Fate would still beat it out overall.

with Garajal, twist would only be better imo if you were going in for the add phases.

so id say if your not assigned to go in i probably wouldnt pick it up.

but yea, getting the buff for killing an add then with twist on top of it. if timed right you could jump out and unload on the boss!

True, totally not worth it if your not going in - then it's pretty much a single target fight other than the totem.
