PvE Rotation
As a Shadow
牧师
, the entire reason you are brought to a Raid is for your Debuff,
暗影之波
. Shadow Weaving is a huge Debuff, giving a massive boost in Damage to the
术士
s in the Raid, increasing their total Damage dealt by 15%. In fact,
术士
and Shadow
牧师
are best friends in a Raid. Warlocks apply a few Debuffs of their own,
强化暗影箭
and
暗影诅咒
, which both can help the Shadow Priest!
A Shadow Priests main priority regarding their Rotation is the following: Keep up
暗影之波
, don't run out of Mana, and do as much Damage as you possibly can (which won't be that much, but more is always better). If you are poorly geared and have a poorly equipped Tank that has threat issues, you can even consider spamming Rank 1
暗言术:痛
to build up 4 Stacks of
暗影之波
quickly, and then start your actual rotation with a Max Rank
暗言术:痛
.
When it comes to Racials such as
噬灵瘟疫
or
星辰碎片
proper usage can be tricky.
噬灵瘟疫
costs a massive amount of Mana and because of this should almost always be paired with
心灵专注
to make sure you don't run out of Mana too early.
星辰碎片
is likely not worth using in raids, as it is not Shadow damage, so it won't scale with all your boosts to Shadow damage such as
暗影之波
and
暗影形态
. Luckily in Season of Mastery the debuff limit has been removed and you no longer have to worry about pushing off more important debuffs. While Devouring Plague is extremely powerful, it does cause a high amount of Threat from the healing effect and could cause Threat issues if your Tank isn't careful. And lastly, it is also recommended you use
吸血鬼的拥抱
cautiously in a Raid environment, as it causes an insane amount of Threat.
Activate any Spell Damage trinkets, such as
短暂能量护符
or
赞达拉英雄护符
Max Rank
暗言术:痛
心灵专注
, followed by
心灵震爆
精神鞭笞
and
精神鞭笞
心灵震爆
(Or skip this if you have a low Mana Pool)
精神鞭笞
and
精神鞭笞
Look out for
强化暗影箭
on the Boss to boost your
心灵震爆
If you are running low on Mana, consider
恶魔符文
,
黑暗符文
, or
特效法力药水
Getting really low on Mana, consider Rank 1
精神鞭笞
Completely out of Mana, consider
射击
Wand and Rank 1
暗言术:痛
Keep up 5 Stacks of
暗影之波
at all times.
Learning Shadow Priest Spells and Shadow Priest Spell Ranks
Instead of having abilities passively grow in power as your character levels up, in Classic WoW each ability is split out into many ranks. That means that most Shadow Priest abilities will require you to visit a Shadow Priest Trainer in order to learn higher ranks as you level up. Some abilities even have special ranks, only learnable via special tomes found around the world.
As you level to 60 in Classic WoW, new abilities will unlock every two levels. In order to train them, you must visit a
Shadow Priest Class Trainer
, usually located in a major city. In this rotation guide, when talking about abilities, it is usually implied that we’re talking about the max rank unless stated otherwise.
However, in our Classic WoW Spell database, you can browse all available ranks for Shadow Priest abilities, seeing what level you can train each rank at, as well as how much damage each one does.

Spells
Shadow
暗影形态
(Talent in Shadow)
Shadowform is the primary Spell for a Shadow
牧师
. You can't be a "Shadow" Priest if you aren't using Shadowform, so of course this has to be mentioned first. Most importantly, while in Shadowform, a Priest deals 15% increased Shadow Damage and can not cast Holy Spells. Thankfully, we aren't healing and won't need to cast Holy Spells anyway!
暗言术:痛
Shadow Word: Pain is one of the most powerful Damage Over Time Spells in all of Classic. As Mentioned in the Overview page of this guide, Shadow Word: Pain has 100% Spell Coefficient, meaning it takes full advantage of the Spell Damage on the Gear of the Shadow
牧师
! With
强化暗言术:痛
, this Spell will have 2 extra ticks of damage, meaning less applications of the DoT during a Raid Boss!
心灵震爆
Mind Blast is an extremely powerful Damage Spell, but it has two primary drawbacks. First, it has a cooldown, which can be lowered with
强化心灵震爆
, and secondly, it causes a large amount of Threat. Being the only Spell a Shadow
牧师
can Critically Strike with, it causes even more threat when it Crits! Thankfully the cast time is exactly the Global Cooldown Length, and the Priest can immediately begin casting another spell after completing this Cast.
精神鞭笞
(Talent in Shadow)
Mind Flay is one of the most Mana Efficient Spells in the Shadow
牧师
toolkit. With enough Spell Damage, a Rank 1
精神鞭笞
can actually out perform the best Wand in the game, even with
魔杖专精
, and with enough MP5, is essentially a free Cast. For this reason, once a Shadow Priest is geared up enough, it is recommended to completely drop
魔杖专精
.
吸血鬼的拥抱
(Talent in Shadow)
Vampiric Embrace should be used cautiously in Raids. It generates a very large amount of Threat and the healing it provides is not incredibly high. It can help take a lot of weight off your healers though if a fight is longer and Threat isn't an issue.
噬灵瘟疫
(Undead Racial)
Devouring Plague, like
吸血鬼的拥抱
, causes a massive amount of Threat because of the Self Healing. It also costs a significant chunk of Mana so it can be nearly impossible to use effectively unless combined with
心灵专注
.
法力燃烧
Mana Burn is useful against some PvE Raid Bosses, such as
莫阿姆
in Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj. A couple notes on Mana Burn, it is not effected by Spell Damage, because it burns Mana and deals damage based on that, which means it also has 0% Spell Coefficient. Mana Burn is also pretty useful in PvP scenarios, mostly in Battlegrounds, where a Shadow
牧师
is not the primary Kill Target for the enemy team.
Holy
恢复
Renew is one of the most common Heals a Shadow
牧师
will use. Because you can slip out of
暗影形态
, Cast Renew, and then slip right back in. For the most part, during a PvE Raid encounter, a Shadow Priest will never need to leave Shadowform, unless something really bad is happening, in which case it is most likely a wipe.
次级治疗术
治疗术
快速治疗
强效治疗术
治疗祷言
As mentioned for Renew, it is not typical that a Shadow
牧师
will leave
暗影形态
in a Raid environment. In 5-Man Dungeons however, a Shadow Priest is typically the backup Healer in case the Healer runs out of Mana. In those instances, the Shadow Priest is expected to drop Shadowform and start casting Heals.
惩击
神圣之火
Smite and Holy Fire are both Holy Spell Damage abilities, meaning they will almost never be used. There is a couple of really fun Holy Fire Builds for a Discipline Priest however, but it is extremely situational and really only good in Alterac Valley.
神圣新星
(Talent in Holy)
Holy Nova requires the Shadow
牧师
to drop
暗影形态
, which means we'll almost never use it. It is a pretty good spell in general however, for finding a
潜行者
hiding in Stealth nearby!
光明之泉
(Talent in Holy)
Lightwell is pretty much a joke throughout all of World of Warcraft's history. I will say I think it was an innovative and creative mechanic that the Vanilla Team created, unfortunately it isn't viable at all. It is the absolute worst Heal in the game, a Healing over Time that
cancels
when attacked? Yikes.
绝望祷言
(Dwarf and Human Racial)
Desperate Prayer is unique to Dwarf and Human
牧师
, as it is their Class Racial. This is a powerful Instant cast self heal, but it does require the Shadow
牧师
to drop
暗影形态
. In a dire situation, the Priest will likely cast this, follow up with
恢复
, and then slip back into Shadowform, resulting in a ton of self healing.
Offensive
能量灌注
(Talent in Discipline)
Power Infusion is the final Talent in the Discipline Tree, which means it is unreachable for a Shadow
牧师
. Which is pretty unfortunate, because Power Infusion is an insanely cool Spell.
心灵专注
(Talent in Discipline)
Inner Focus is a must have Talent for a Shadow
牧师
. A 0 Mana
噬灵瘟疫
? No Undead Priest can turn that down! In PvE however, it is mostly used on the opening
心灵震爆
in the rotation, for the extra Crit chance. This is only recommended if you have a really good Tank that can build enough Threat quickly at the start of a fight.
Defensive
心灵之火
Inner Fire is an extremely powerful Buff the Shadow
牧师
uses on themselves. In PvP, this is one of the most important things to get accustomed to, constantly refreshing Inner Fire. In some situations, when a Shadow Priest really wants to specialize in countering Melee, they will sometimes pick up
强化心灵之火
, taking even less damage from Melee.
真言术:盾
Power Word: Shield is the absolute king of anti-Melee. First of all,
战士
will get 0 Rage when attacking into a Shield. Which means whoever a Warrior goes after, the
牧师
should be throwing a Shield on that target! And when the Shadow Priest is the target, Shield should be self cast every chance it can!
心灵尖啸
Psychic Scream is an extremely powerful Area of Effect Crowd Control Spell, which the Shadow
牧师
can use to get multiple targets off of them. In PvP, this should be used on as many Enemy targets as possible, often times requires the Shadow Priest to move out of position, and into the enemy ranks, allowing for a big "fear bomb".
渐隐术
Fade is almost entirely worthless. Unfortunately, the reduction in Threat only applies during the Fade time of 10 seconds, and when the Buff falls off, all previous Threat is gained
back
. In general, this should only be used at the beginning of a Raid fight, after a
心灵震爆
Crits, giving 10 more seconds for the Tank to gain enough Threat.
虚弱之触
(Undead Racial)
Touch of Weakness is another anti-Melee Buff for Undead
牧师
. One important note is the damage dealt from the application of Touch of Weakness
can
proc
昏阙
, which is absolutely devastating when a Shadow Priest is opened on by a
潜行者
!
暗影守卫
(Troll Racial)
Shadowguard, just like
虚弱之触
, can proc
昏阙
. This Spell is unique to Trolls, acting exactly like a
萨满祭司
's
闪电之盾
. Even with only 3 Charges, that is a lot of opportunity for a Troll
牧师
to apply Blackout on an attacking Melee character.
虚弱妖术
(Troll Racial)
Hex of Weakness is the second Troll Class Racial. Unfortunately, it is a strictly weaker
虚弱之触
, doing the exact same thing, but costing more Mana, and doing 0 Damage on application. The reduction in Healing is a pretty spectacular bonus, but often times in PvP, the person attack the Shadow
牧师
in the backlines is a
潜行者
and not the target of Heals.
回馈
(Human Racial)
Feedback is a pretty strange Spell, being unique to Human
牧师
, which are very uncommon. In PvE, this has absolutely no effect at all, and in PvP it isn't that powerful. Shadow Priest already do really well versus most Spellcaster classes, as well as naturally having
法力燃烧
, a powerful Mana sucking Spell. Feedback does have a chance to proc
昏阙
, which can be really nice in a pinch.
艾露恩的赐福
(Night Elf Racial)
Elune's Grace, the Racial Spell for Night Elf
牧师
, is unfortunately not very good. With an extremely long cooldown of 5 minutes, don't expect it to be up more than once during a PvP encounter. And even if it is off cooldown, a 10% increase to dodge chance doesn't do much, putting a level 60 Priest at around 15% Dodge chance, since Priest gear doesn't have any Agility on it. In PvE, it's entirely useless.
防护恐惧结界
(Dwarf Racial)
Fear Ward, the Holy Grail of Alliance Racials, is a Holy Spell, meaning you can not cast it while in
暗影形态
. So to keep this up during a long encounter, you'll have to drop Shadowform frequently to keep this on a Tank or Healer. While already having Mana issues, this can put quite a strain on the
牧师
, so be careful to avoid popping in and out of Shadowform too much.
Utility
沉默
(Talent in Shadow)
Silence is an extremely powerful PvP Spell, allowing a Shadow
牧师
to completely shut down a Spellcaster for 5 whole seconds. This can certainly change the tide during a brawl in the center of Warsong Gulch, when applied to the enemy team's Healer, allowing your team to down the enemy
战士
.
驱散魔法
Dispel Magic is one of the most unique things about a
牧师
when it comes to PvP. Priests and Paladins are the only classes that can remove
变形术
from their allies in a Warsong Gulch. Most pre-made teams will bring 2
法师
, just to spam Polymorph on as many targets as possible.
祛病术
驱除疾病
Cure Disease and Abolish Disease are both Holy Spells, meaning they can't be cast while in
暗影形态
. Furthermore, there isn't actually that many Diseases in the game, other than a few encounters in Dungeons and Raids. In PvP, it has almost no effect, unless of course there is an Undead
牧师
tossing up a
噬灵瘟疫
!
复活术
Resurrection is also a Holy Spell, but a great tool after a wipe after a Boss, or in PvP, casted behind a tree, outside of the enemy's sight. Not much can be said for this Spell, other than it being a huge asset during the leveling process, while doing low level dungeons with random strangers, wipes happen often! Just another reason why Warlocks are a
牧师
best friend! (
灵魂石
)
漂浮术
Levitate is an awesome Utility Spell, allowing the
牧师
to walk on water! In PvP, this is great in Arathi Basin, allowing a Priest to rotate to Blacksmith without much of an issue, as well as jumping down from Lumber Mill taking 0 fall damage.
心灵视界
Mind Vision is one of the premier scouting Spells in the game. Thankfully in Warsong Gulch, the draw distance for enemy players is much wider, allowing you to type "/target X" Where X is the enemy flag carrier, allowing you to see the exact location of the flag. You can also daisy chain this ability, hopping from player to player until you find your target. This is a powerful tool when your Offense has lost the flag and need fast communication on the location.
安抚心灵
Mind Soothe is valuable during the leveling process when a
牧师
wants to get to a chest or gathering node as quickly as possible because they might be competing with other members of their faction. A Priest can use Mind Soothe on the nearby enemy monsters, allowing them to slip by and pick up the node. Mind Soothe is also very helpful when a Priest needs to get into position for a
精神控制
before a pull in a PvE encounter.
精神控制
Mind Control is one of the most fun Spells in the
牧师
toolkit. Mind Controlling enemies off of the Lumber Mill, leaping them down to their death in Arathi Basin. Same thing for Alliance Priest, heading over to Thunder Bluff, Mind Controlling Horde off of the elevators. In PvE, there is even one encounter that Mind Control is an absolute necessity (
教官拉苏维奥斯
), as well as many other encounters that are a breeze with Mind Control!
束缚亡灵
Shackle Undead has very limited uses, but it can come in handy during the Undead Dungeons and Raids, allowing the Priest to utilize a powerful Crowd Control Spell. This is especially useful in Dungeons such as Scholomance and Stratholme, which are Dungeons filled with Undead.
星辰碎片
(Night Elf Racial)
Starshards is included in the "Utility" section because, realistically, it has only a single purpose for a Shadow
牧师
. In almost every instance you would consider Casting Starshards, Mind Flay is the better option. But on the rare occasion, your target is going to be able to run out of line of sight with very little health remaining. It is a better option to cast Starshards, because it can still hit the target, even out of line of sight.
Buffs
真言术:韧
坚韧祷言
Power Word: Fortitude is one of the best Buffs in the game, giving a flat bonus to Stamina, increasing the target's Health by a significant amount. It is generally recommended all
牧师
take
强化真言术:韧
, just because they will be expected to buff their Group with Fortitude.
防护暗影
暗影防护祷言
Shadow Protection is particularly useful in multiple PvE Raids, notably Blackwing Lair, Ahn'Qiraj, and Naxxramas. Each of these Raids will pummel the Raid with Shadow Damage, often times completely unavoidable damage. With enough Shadow Resistance gear, Buffs, and Consumables, this can all be mitigated to a much more manageable amount of damage.
神圣之灵
精神祷言
(Talent in Discipline)
Divine Spirit is unfortunately fairly deep in the Discipline tree, meaning you can't be a Shadow
牧师
and take Divine Spirit. It is a powerful Buff for Healers however, and in a Raid setting, there will most certainly be a Holy/Discipline Priest that can put this buff on the Shadow Priest, giving you some extra Spirit for Mana Regeneration, in tandem with
冥想
!
Debuffs in Classic WoW
Be mindful when using Shadow Priest spells that apply debuffs on enemies that they may only have 16 debuffs on them at a time, including raid bosses. With this limitation, usually large raid groups will assign specific players to apply certain debuffs, while others refrain from using them. Learn more about Debuff management in Classic and what are the sought-after debuffs for a raid in our

This is dumb.
Remove the shadow priest from your raid, they are a waste of a raid slot.
Spec this.
https://classic.cuckhead.com/talent-calc/priest/501230130505051--50005041005
Gear as a healer.
Cast Rank 1 MB/SWP to keep up shadow weaving.
Oh and instructing your priests to use SWP in a raid, absolutely stupid.

Having 1 Shadow priest can buff ALL the warlocks and can actually do considerable dmg if given 2 things: 1) A paladin judging wisdom on the boss and 2) a debuff slot for SW:Pain. Mathematically, SWP will be a larger dps gain than warlock's corruption, and with 16 debuffs there's arguably room for SWP and Judge. of Wisdom. Lastly... the suggested rotation here is all wrong and clips/delays SWP, which will be your best dmg output. Try: SWP, MB, MF,MF,MF MB, MF, MF, MF Repeat. With Pots, Runes, and Judgement of Wis. a spellpower maxed S.Priest can do top tier damage in 2 min fights. For fights over 2 mins swap to only SWP, 1 MB and 6x MF then repeat.
We know from history / experience that the S.Priest of vanilla went OOM too quickly because they blew their mana on too many Mind Blasts. Prioritize nothing but Spell Power and you will be happy with your dps numbers.
