We are currently on Northrend Beasts 25 man Hardmode and i hit what i think to be a respectable 4.5k dps. Are they right to think i should hit +5k dps or am I at a disavantage Class wise as well as gear wise.
This is a pretty accurate example of what is going on, though it should be stressed that making up the "gear gap" won't make up the "DPS gap" that is currently happening with SPriests. As far as breaking 5k DPS, that is a pretty good benchmark to shoot for, especially if you are aggressive with multidotting. It should be noted that single target burning the snobolds is how the fight should play out, but as a Shadow Priest your placement on Recount will take a hit if you do this. Multidotting is a great way to cheese the meter and get people off your backs.

Saying that it is 20-30% lower than a pure DPS class is misleading, because at this point in the patch cycle, even hybrid melee (druids, Dks) are pulling 20-30% more DPS than shadow priests. Even boomkins are pulling substantially more damage than us in most burn fights. There are a number of threads both on shadowpriest.com as well as the US WoW Forums (Damage Dealing) that have in depth reviews of our current issues. As much as it frustrates me, I am going to keep my complaining off of the EJ forums - everyone here already knows there is an issue.

I think most veteran spriests has known this for sometime. We've been asking for scaling since before 3.1 was released. In Ulduar, most QQ was averted by having mobs to multidot / aoe.

For the record, if you are at the 232 gear level, you should be doing more than 5k damage. I would expect somewhere in the 5k to 5.5k range. But yes, your damage will be significantly lower than other classes on most fights.

Here's a log of our last week's kill of Northrend Beasts (I was disc this week): World of Logs - Real Time Raid Analysis

Admittedly my gear is better than yours, but anyway you should be able to push ~5500 with your gear. Please also note that my gear was worse last week than it currently is. Yes, I *do* multidot snobolds and both worms if possible, but remember you're a shadow priest and that's how we work. Even though some people say it's all meter whoring, in the end it helps killing things faster. All snobolds have to die anyway so dotting all of them is a good idea in this fight, while you maintain your single target dps on the focussed snobold.

On a side note, your gear can be improved. Your meta gem is inferior and also your boot enchant is - 8% runspeed is really nice on Beasts. You could also spec into -2min cooldown on your shadowfiend to further increase your dps.

Thanks for the tips. Ill change up my spec,meta and boot enchant for tonight. I generally dot up one snobold between MB's on gormack. As my guild concentrates all dps to burn them fast there is rarely a time when there are 2 up. Im new to SP and once again thank you all for the imput.

Question on Glyphs

First of all, thank you for providing this information - it's been extremely helpful in raising my dps. One question I have is regarding glyphs: Why increase the range of mind flay (with Mind Flay glyph) rather than increasing the aoe radius of mind sear?

99% of AOE situations end up with the mobs stacked up on each other on a single tank, or on an offtank who pulls them next to the primary target. Mind Flay range is always useful.

Increasing the range on Mind Flay falls along the same lines of putting run speed on your boots, more or less. It lets you set up further away from the boss, and gets you in range quicker on any fights where adds are tanked in different spots. It's a huge benefit for Yogg-Saron, for example.

For Mind Sear, *usually* adds are all tanked together, so the benefit there is non-existent in those cases.

Does Vampiric Touch have the highest priority only because it provides replenishment? I see that Devouring Plague deals the most damage per cast, expecting that it should be the top priority spell.

You're not taking Misery - Spell - World of Warcraft into account.

You are not taking durations into account. Vampiric Touch lasts 15 seconds, whereas Devouring Plague lasts 24.
The important part of a DoT is how much it ticks for, not its overall damage, and on the log you linked VT is ticking for almost 900 more damage.

What has the change to Twisted Faith done to the scale value for Spirit listed in the OP? It wouldn't be doubled, as there was also an increase in Improved Spirit Tap's up time.

Spirit went from being just under 20% to just under 30% as a dps stat.

therefore, spirit on gear is about 50% better then it was prebuff.

With the changes to IST and Twisted Faith I believe most raid buffed and T8+ geared priests (40% crit, 700+ spirit) will see the best performance out of this build:

13/0/55+3

The addition of Mind Flay to IST means much better uptime and the changes to Twisted Faith increase the bonus spellpower received from the spirit increase. I prefer to put the 3 remaining points in Improve VE and Inner Focus for utility, but you can put them wherever you like based on your preference and raid need.

(Thanks to Frewe for proposing this build to me)

I haven't had Focused Mind for quite some while now, and with the changes to IST mana will be even more plentiful for us. I am going to slowly start dropping points in Meditation to get more utility talents instead. We'll see how mana holds up in raid practice.

Regarding this change
* Racial Attribute Bonuses: These bonuses have been recalibrated to even out the amount of starting health on the various races. All races start with a standardized level of stamina, except for orcs, dwarves, and tauren who now start with 1 extra point of stamina. For each class, bonuses and penalties to all attributes have been adjusted so that each race has an equal attribute total.
On the PTR it appears that our base Spirit was changed to 63, Int is 48 and stam is base 105. The stats appear to fluctuate a little, but not the crit.

Base crit was changed to 1.53 from 1.23. Or is that just 1.23 + the lower int? That's giving 1.52. Perhaps it's the rounding.

In my gear with the cookie cutter spec and glyphs, this resulted in a loss of 25 spellpower and .74% crit, or 200~ theoretical dps.

Edit: Apparently this has been discovered already, removing pics.

Hello, i've been reading these forums for an while now, and they've helped me quite much.

The reason why i am posting now is i want to know out of curiosity what people think about my gear/gems and priorization, altough this isnt probably the best place to post this, i hope you wont be too hard on me.

My question is, is it worth getting 4 set bonus of t9.25, or is t8.5 (2) & t9.25 (2) better, if you think it in terms of dps? I know this question has been probably answered indirectly somewhere, but can't be arsed to find it.

Also would be cool, if somebody could like maybe private message me or just reply here, if i have fucked up on gear/spec or smth.

Thanks for your time.

Napkin math on PvE haste shadowpriest damage increase:


World of Logs - Real Time Raid Analysis

SW: P is about 12% of a shadowpriest's damage, so roughly 650 dps. Assuming haste makes dots faster linearly, for a well geared shadowpriest that is likely to be around a 30% increase in sw: p dps, working out to be a ~200 DPS buff.

If they buff every single shadowpriest dot by 30%, even ignoring reapplication time, you are looking at buffing 40% of a shadowpriest's damage by 30%, which works out to be around a ~800 DPS buff. The net buff would be smaller because of having to reapply dot faster, but this works out ok as a back of envelope calculation.

tl;dr version:

buffing sw: pain alone is insignificant, buffing all of them together would increase all shadowpriest damage by 800 dps or so, putting them roughly where they should be.

i am sure althor would have far more accurate numbers later on

need help with my rotation/priority list - I pretty much keep all my dots up and cast mind blast whenever its up. I cast mind fly in between mind blasts unless i have to reapply a dot. I also utilized SWD if i have 1 second before mind blast is ready. However, i've been noticing that right after i finish a mind flay i often have about half a second before mind blast is ready. What do you guys do about this. I've been just casting another mind flay if no dots need refreshing. Is there a way to avoid this? is my haste rating contributing to this problem ( i currently use 2 pieces of T8 and 2 pieces of T9)?

I think it's most likely to assume that haste will apply with the 1 / (1+N) formula rather than (1-N), like all other haste does. This prevents weird supra-linear behavior. It's still 30% more ticks for 30% more haste though. However, it's worth noting that the haste of Shadow Word: Pain probably gets "locked in" on casts the same way crit and other damage increase buffs do. If that's the case, casting your pain during a Bloodlust could be lucrative. You'll get a permanent 60% haste on the spell rather than 30%. Or maybe they'll just fix that annoying bug in 3.3 as well-- I'd be just as happy not to have to deal with it.

At any rate, I'm sure everyone here agrees that shadow priests need a DPS increase of around 15%, but I don't think Blizzard thinks the problem is that bad. From the kind of buffs they've been giving us, I suspect they think it's around 5% too low. In which case a 300 DPS increase would be fine. Blizzard is also very conservative with buffs, as people get extremely pissy when they need to get nerfed. Honestly, even if Blizzard thought Shadow Priests were behind by 1000 DPS, I'm sure they wouldn't just give us 1000 DPS all in one patch.

This is a bigger buff than the increased spirit returns from Twisted Faith though, so it seems like they're ramping up potential changes. I guess that's encouraging.

I've updated SimCraft with all the latest 3.3.0 changes except for DKs (I haven't updated T10 set bonuses yet nor have I adjusted pet choices, action lists or talent choices for those classes where it might be appropriate).

For Shadow Priest I've also added the ability to directly set whether or not each of our DoTs can be effected by Haste. (hasted_shadow_word_pain=1 hasted_devouring_plague=1 hasted_vampiric_touch=1)

Comparing (in full BiS T9) the DPS with no Haste scaling to with all 3 DoTs scaling:

Before: 8602 DPS.
After: 9424 DPS.

Which is around the same as a Moonkin.

Mind you, implementing this change on all 3 DoTs would boost our multi-dotting DPS by a fair bit...
Probably by too much compared to the other caster hybrids.

Just for fun I decided to implement the 4pc (and 2pc) Shadow Priest T10 set bonus as data-mined (as well as testing some other combinations).

Priest_T9_13_00_58_258 is the default current 3.2.2 profile and model.
Priest_T9_13_00_58_258_swp is the same but with hasted SW: P fixed on.
Priest_T9_13_00_58_258_swp_dp_vt has all 3 DoTs ticking faster with haste.
Priest_T9_13_00_58_258_mf1 has SW: P ticking faster but also has the T10 2pc+4pc bonuses instead of T9 and using the standard rotation.
Priest_T9_13_00_58_258_mf2 has SW: P ticking faster but also has the T10 2pc+4pc bonuses instead of T9 and it doesn't cast Devouring Plague, Vampiric Touch or Mind Blast.
Priest_T9_13_00_58_258_mf3 has SW: P ticking faster but also has the T10 2pc+4pc bonuses instead of T9 and it doesn't cast Mind Blast
and
Priest_T9_13_00_58_258_mf4 has all 3 DoTs ticking faster, has T10 2pc+4pc instead of T9 and doesn't cast Mind Blast.

So making all 3 DoTs tick faster with Haste and with that (obviously broken) T10 4pc Shadow Priests would gain a modest 3807 DPS. ;P
