so I heard that dev's wanted feedback on inner fire in 1.10.. http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.a...mp=1#post581288

so what about:

-same armour bonus
-decrease physical damage taken by 15% (doesen't stack with shadow form)

got all excited about my own suggestion but can't post on the us forums so there it is.
one of many abilities that doesen't scale with gear for us and this would reflect how the game has changed since release. hunter ranged damage would have to be counted as physical damage aswell if it's gonna solve most of our problems.

The prevailing logic is that they'll have a damage mitigation portion (probably in the form of the armor bonus) as well as the damage bonus (50/50 between wand damage and spell damage).

Ideally an X% damage reduction with spell damage would be my preference, but I'm willing to let others with more experience hash out the particulars.

well I thought the semi "clever" part of it was to keep the armour part and give non-shadowform priests the exact same physical dmg taken reduction buff as a shadow priest which everyone recognize (instead of +x armour equivelant of 15% reduction for nonshadow priests). for soloing few priests prefer melee instead of a wand.

In that case then an idea like Lurch's would be best, since the % reduction would be nice regardless of level, and the plus damage would go to either spell damage or wanding, not melee (that's just silly).

yup that would make sense if you tried duplicating the original purpose of it but make it more usefull. what I liked about my suggestion was that it would be a much needed buff to the survivability of a non-shadowform priest while staying the same for shadowform priests. the other buffs you are suggesting would buff shadowform priests aswell which isn't really needed and would piss most people off. mine on the other hand would suport something most people can agree on is very needed.

edit: it's was never meant as a raiding ability and there's not much broken about our pve abilities, especially if 1sec shorter gheal goes through.

I hope they improve the spell to a strong, scaling spell for PvP use and ignore it's PvE usage, rather than make it a mediocre spell for both.

Making the armor bonus simply be a % increase over base armor (preferrably balanced relative to the value it had at release), would be a quick easy fix that really shouldn't upset anyone. +100% armor / 150% armor (when specced) is roughly what it was at release.

Replace +AP with +wand damage and I'm a happy camper.

haha once in a while

How about I don't care what it does so long as they make it so I don't have to recast the damn thing every 3 minutes to even make use of it?

It's not a ToEP or something for goodness sakes. It should either work like one of those to justify the retarded duration, or be on a 15-30 minute long timer instead. I have to cast enough spells during an instance or raid without having to piddle with that stupid crap every 2.5 minutes.

I'm guessing you don't have a shaman, Slug :)

Respec to Holy already. Cause you know, we need that extra healing for AQ, not the BWL that we have on farm status so we can have one Shadow Priest out of 14-16 Priests.
