I usually pull around 4.3K-4.7K on Northrend Boss fights and my gearscore is a little above 2600. So, depends on what rotation you use and your gear and stuff.
The reason is why they have lower dps in a 5man instance, that the key of the shadowpriests' dps are their DoTs, which needs time to maximize its damage output. In a 5man, the mobs dying too fast for the dots, so the shadowpriest can't do their best dps. I usually DoT all the mobs in the pack, this way a shadowpriest can do relative good damage at the quick-dying mobs, too.
@andyroo37 Shadow priests are like most feral druids, the class is fine and the player is a failure. Don't shy away from something because other people fail at it =)
SW: death doesn't increase your dps in pve tbh. It's not worth a global cooldown. A single Mind Flay would do twice as much damage as a shadow word: death. Also it's made for pvp when your target is at 3.4k hp.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
first of all my priest is lvl 70 WTF are you diong wasting 5 points in mana regen at lvl 80 when you have dispersion and replenishment... Retard... also plz i need to stop every1 using the basic UI its so filthy and untidy get a neat UI plz
what a stupid cast sequence. i see u many time making that noob 'click spam' on spells cuz your cast sequence dont repect spells cd ... omg go read few foruns plz.... i bet u make like 4k dps -.-
you can find a ton of specs for leveling priests by searching on google. just look around for a little bit. the best advice i can give that you wont really find anywhere is that you should always have the most updated wand that u can find. this is extremely helpful, especially for your earlier levels.
I disagree with the comments made about how easy shadow priests can be, let me tel you they aren't. Shadow priests have no real rotation and each priest does things a little differently. Shadow priests follow a priority system, unlike a strict rotation of that of an Arcane mage.
Well in my guild 10 and 25 man ulduar we got a spriest dealing ~5k dps on everyboss topping the charts...
Yeh you can go on and say "oh your guild is shit then since top dps is 5k" well people have a life :-)
Nice vid thanks for it helped me since im making a Spriest could never work out a cycle. Currently i've got a 80 rogue which deals ~4k dps in ulduar :) c'u around.
spriest and disc is closer in gear. spriests is stacking sp,crit, haste and spirit while disc is stacking sp, crit and int basically. the three specs are very different in playstyle, and none of them are boring imho. also to OP, get quartz naabcaex =)
When this was filmed, I was an enchanter/tailor. I dropped tailoring and picked up Jewelcrafting, that I powerleveled, and it was [in my opinion] totally worth it.
Hi I´m also playing a night elf priest. Im doing a dps about 3k with full t7. I think when you would use Shadoword: Death more often it woult boost your dps at about 3,2k. Just think about it ;)
When I first started out, my gear wasn't the one that was necessary at all, and when I took this video, SW:D would have, indeed, greatly increased my DPS. Currently, I'm at 300 haste and 2300 SP w/ Inner Fire.... 300 haste is the ideal place to be, and once you get there, SW:D actually limits your DPS. You want to be able to get 2 MFs in before the MB CD is up. Hope this helped out.
generally youll get better benefit from haste if you have low latencies, it just nullifies as you get higher up but crit is overall better since regen procs of crits and we get extra damage on dots from % of crit
If u played wow, then u would defo know that DP is a base spell to all priests atm. I have been playing this for 4 years now and trust me when i say that what i said its what the majority of wow population thinks too. Am not flaming but its absolutely rediculous to level a night elf priest, or a draenei mage, or human priest. human rogue or even a draenei paladin or hunter... Its for laugh both looks and base gestures.. Ask arround whats best UNDEAD priest ? or Night elf?..
lmao kickzfnatic you fail. in the same paragraph you say it cost 25% of base mana ( which is wrong to begin with ) then you say if you have 15k mana it will cost you 3.75k mana to cast it. that would be 25% of total mana. not only undead get devouring plague all priest do. undead are a good race , WOTF is still pretty handy even after nerf and i personaly like the extra underwater breathe. plus they have the highest base mana of all the horde races. bones showing through armor is annoying :(
the only reason you would pick undead is because of devouring plague. which cost you 25 % base of your mana. not to mention that devouring plague can be dispelled or cured by any class. which cost you less than 5% of there mana, honestly think kid before you talk just because they have another dot doesn't mean its beneficial in the long run. if the undead priest has 15k mana devouring plague would take 3.75k manas to be casted. Not worth it.
you try to look like you've got the upperhand, and that you're a world of warcraft god, but your grammar sucks, and your knowledge of priests is even worse. all priests have devouring plague now. -_-
shadow priest is just awesome because it gives mana to party members and does good dps, but disci priest is also great to combine with DK's at battles (:

"I'm normally deep disc as a healer, in all 25 man gear except for my boots. Only shadow gear I have is two pieces of t7.5 and a pair of legs."
Only new to PvE and im almost 80 as my priest.. Whats the difference between Spriest Gear and Disc/Holy Priest gear and whats better for both areas?..
Please Reply! Thank You ^^
