[PAID] Nightmare - Richie's Shadow Priest PvP Combat Routine [Pro Edition]

only real nerf was void shift which we cant use anymore. you can still mass dispell if you glyph for it its just a longer cast and from what iv played i seem to do more dmg now. so its not as bad as people say.

 

Once the EU servers are up and running (and I get home) I'll test the SP changes and upload the version that won't try to use MD on bubble/ice block if you don't have the glyph and only uses void shift in random battlegrounds.

The changes are already implemented, I just have to test them, then upload to SVN.

 

Since it seems that there's no stable HonorBuddy version today, I won't be able to test my changes.

It means that there's no update for the CR today. Maybe tomorrow.

 

any chance you can add the use of Angelic Feather. should be pretty easy to just drop one at your feet every 6-10 seconds for perma 60% movement speed. I have been using it since 5.3 and its so much better then phantasm vs all the melee cleaves that are plaguing arena now. can also use it in rbgs/bgs for stupid fast flag carrying.

 

Can do. The code should be pretty straightforward. I'll add it when I get home.

Is it really that good in arenas? I thought that snare removal is more essential there.

 

yeah in 3s its way better then snare removal you can kite all day with it and melee can not touch u and with the new arena its alot easier to run into los it has saved me a few times already. alot of the high spriests are using it now. Also since u pretty much have this 100% from what i can tell you should start a afflic lock cr it wouldn't be to much different from this.

 

Leveling my lock right now. The Disc CR is almost done and I plan to make a warrior CR while leveling the lock.

 

Aslong as u keep them pvp only and nice and simple like spriest CR it will rock. I love how it just does what its ment to and nothing to special.

 

That's what I wanted. To do what it have to without the unneeded extras(or at least have the ability to turn them off).

I want it to be fast and deadly.

 

is it possible to make intelligent use of fear ward? For example, if a warlock 40 yards and casts fear, or if the enemy warrior / priest / psy fiend are within 25 yards, use protection from fear itself. Thank you!

 

it uses fear ward on cd so i don't really see the point in this since it should already be up when its needed.

 

true, but I'm talking about the protection from dispel fear ward for the lazy man)

 

Zer was right, a good priest will spam dispel your Fear Ward before fearing. Better use it when he get in range or he drop Psyfiend.

 

already explained why zer was wrong to you on skype but just so everyone knows in arena you shouldn't be fearwarding yourself in 3s it should be on your healer. So unless richie wants to add fearwarding healers its good just to keep it the way it is.

 

Almost everything is possible. The question is that 'is it really needed?'

To have this functionality properly working we'd have to scan for casting psyfiends/warlocks(In arenas I think most of them are using focus fear or arenatarget1-3 fear macros so you can't know who should be fearwarded. Don't think that HB is able to tell who's the target of the spell because most of the time fearwarding the lock's target is useless). The bot should also do a range check for warriors/priests for all of your arena partners and fearward someone who's in range for a warrior/priest.

Problem is that someone will ALWAYS be in range for a warrior. If a warrior wants to fear the healer it'll charge and fear. Even the bot won't be fast enough to fearward your healer when the warrior charges it to fear. It would be a bit easier if the fearward would be off GCD. Since it's not then you most of the time would just miss that fear. Not even counting latency here.

The above logic COULD BE added, but I don't think that it SHOULD BE added.

I'd prefer to keep myself or my healer constantly fearwarded. If I fearward myself then I can instantly Mass Dispel the fear from the healer.

I'm open for discussion about the topic. If you can prove me that adding this feature is justified then I'll add it.

I could change the fearward logic to cast it on you or the closest healer in your team.

 

Richie,

Hows the damage in RBGs with this CC?

My priest isn't really in much tyran gear lol

 

Sorry, my bad ) I often play a healer, I forgot that this Shadow priest cr lol I really believe that this kind of logic is needed to protect the healer, given that Mass Dispel cast shadow priest for 1.3 seconds now. I agree about the warrior fear, it can be removed

 

Should just be an option to heal FC
or just focus target only

 

its not using mind flay at all now. but everything else seems to be working 100%

 

Is HB working again? Will check the mind flay.

The current logic is that it won't cast mind flay until the targets around you are fully dotted. MF is the lowest priority spell right now.
