Welcome to Wowhead's DPS Shadow Priest Talents Classic Guide, updated for WoW Classic! In this guide, we will cover every Shadow Priest Talent in their talent tree, how useful it is in both PvE and PvP situations, as well as covering the best Shadow Priest talent builds and best Shadow Priest specs in both PvE and PvP environments.
In WoW Classic, Shadow Priests must visit a
Shadow Priest Trainer
in order to change their talent tree selections. This process has a cost attached to it, which starts as a small fee but increases every time you perform it, up to a cap of . This cost is reduced by per month, to a minimum of .

WoW Classic PvE Talent Builds for Shadow Priests
Shadow PvE Dungeons 20/0/31 Priest Talent Build
This is essentially the Leveling Build,
魔杖专精
and
精神分流
are a
牧师
's key components to staying useful even with little to no Mana. After a Trash Pull, Spirit Tap will kick in, regenerating a significant amount of Mana for 15 seconds. Early on, when doing Dungeons and before a Priest starts Raiding, there won't be a lot of Spell Damage on Gear available, meaning
射击
Wand is still a useful tool when low on Mana.
Because this Shadow
牧师
is still doing Dungeons and not ready to Raid, it's essential to have useful Utility Talents such as
强化真言术:盾
and
精神敏锐
, allowing the Shadow
牧师
to support the Group with Shields, as well as slip out of
暗影形态
for the occasional
恢复
.
Since this Shadow
牧师
is likely working with a very low Mana Pool, they will probably not be able to keep up with multiple
心灵震爆
throughout a Dungeon Boss encounter, without getting close to going OOM. For this reason, it is entirely okay to skip on
强化心灵震爆
for the time being. And as previously mentioned, it isn't worth getting
强化吸血鬼的拥抱
for the high Threat it causes.
Shadow PvE Raiding 16/0/35 Priest Talent Build
Transitioning into a Raiding Spec, the Shadow
牧师
should be nearly BiS for their first Raid. This means they will likely have enough Mana to support a much more aggressive rotation, as well as taking the time to farm out necessary consumables for their first Raid. With these two things taken into consideration,
精神敏锐
is the first thing to go, especially considering the Shadow Priest won't be expected to drop out of
暗影形态
for any reason, and the Priest will not need to cast
真言术:盾
, ever.
Instead, the Raiding Shadow
牧师
can take advantage of 4 points in
强化心灵震爆
, enabling a perfect cooldown for double
精神鞭笞
, followed by
心灵震爆
. Because the Priest will also have enough Spell Damage on Gear, it is a good idea to drop
魔杖专精
for
坚定意志
, for the small chance, the Priest can resist a Boss mechanic here and there.
Shadow Weaver Priest Talent Build
Some Raids will want to put
暗影之波
debuff on Raid Bosses, but don't want to fully commit to bringing a Shadow Priest (
Boo! Shadow Priests Rock!
) and will instead ask a Priest to swap over to a Shadow Weaving / Power Infusion talent build. This Build sacrifices both Healing talents and good damage talents, becoming a worse healer and a worse damage dealer, being a full utility player who can toss PI on a Fire Mage or Warlock, while also keeping up Shadow Weaving on the Raid Boss.
Typically, your rotation with this build will be getting 5 stacks of Shadow Weaving as quickly as possible, this is best done by spamming Rank 1
暗言术:痛
for the first 5 global cooldowns, instantly getting to 5 stacks. Once that is done, the "Shadow Weaver" can focus on Healing as you normally would as a Healer, while occasionally tossing out a Rank 1
心灵震爆
to keep up the Shadow Weaving debuff.
WoW Classic PvP Talent Builds for Shadow Priests
Shadow PvP (13/0/38) Priest Talent Build
While it isn't necessary to take a full 5 points in
暗影集中
, since a
牧师
only needs 3% Spell Hit to reach the "Cap," it is recommended the Shadow Priest takes all 5 points. The reason being, a lot of popular pieces of Gear in PvP will carry Shadow Resistance, increasing the wearer's chance to Resist Shadow Spells even more than the flat rate.
Smite and Holy Fire 32/19/0 Priest Talent Build
This Build focuses on Spell Damage and Spell Crit, which requires an entirely different Gearing process than Shadow
牧师
. In general, a lot of Holy Gear can work for this Build, only subbing out a couple of pieces that only have "Spell Healing" on them, other than the preferred "Spell Damage and Spell healing."
A Smite
牧师
shines when they can hide behind a Tree or Obstacle in a large scale engagement in PvP, pumping off
惩击
and
神圣之火
entirely out of sight of the enemy team! It is mostly a joke Build, picked up when a Healing Priest gets bored and wants to do some damage in PvP!
WoW Classic Overview of Talents for Shadow Priests
Discipline Tree Talents
坚定意志
Unbreakable Will is an absolute monster PvP Talent. All 3 of these Crowd Control Debuffs are extremely impactful during the heat of battle. A 15% chance to Resist (20% for Stuns, since everyone has a base 5% Chance to Resist) these Debuffs can really make a difference. Unfortunately, the
牧师
can't control it and sometimes you won't even notice it -- but you can bet your enemies do!
魔杖专精
Wand Specialization is an extremely powerful leveling Talent, and one of the first Talents you should pick up while Leveling a Priest (along with
精神分流
). Because of Wand Specialization,
牧师
are actually extremely efficient levelers, requiring very little downtime in between pulls. Eventually, with enough Spell Damage on gear, a Rank 1
精神鞭笞
will out perform this Talent, allowing the Priest to pickup
坚定意志
instead.
无声消退
Silent Resolve is a very important talent for a Shadow
牧师
during end game content. Because a Critical Strike with
心灵震爆
causes such an absurdly high amount of Threat, any Threat reduction is valuable. While Silent Resolve isn't quite as potent as
暗影亲和
, Silent Resolve does apply to Healing Spells, allowing the
牧师
to slip out of
暗影形态
and off Heal in a dire situation, without pulling a ton of Threat!
强化真言术:韧
Improved Power Word: Fortitude is just a must have talent for all
牧师
, regardless of Healing or Damage. A Shadow
牧师
who intends to only log in on Raid nights can forego these 2 talent points for something else, because there will be other Priests in the raid with it, but I don't recommend it for most Priests. Just take these 2 points, it's worth it.
强化真言术:盾
Improved Power Word: Shield is another leveling talent, when out doing solo content, a Shadow
牧师
will often be using Shield on themselves, to mitigate incoming damage. An important thing to remember, this can be cast while in
暗影形态
, so it is a powerful tool for survival. This is a great talent to use on Priest's journey to 60, but when it comes time to start raiding, Priests won't be using it that often.
殉难
Martyrdom is a great PvP talent, where Critical Strikes happen fairly frequently. Once this triggers, a Shadow
牧师
can freely cast
心灵震爆
without having to worry about Melee knock-back on the Casting bar! Or in a dire situation, the Shadow Priest can pop out of
暗影形态
for a quick Heal!
心灵专注
Inner Focus is the longest cooldown for a Shadow
牧师
(tied with
噬灵瘟疫
for Undead). Most of the time, it is used prior to a
心灵震爆
in a Priest's PvE rotation. One valuable bonus of Inner Focus is the 0 Mana cost on the following Spell, so for some low Mana Pool Shadow Priests, it might be a better idea to get off a free Max Rank
暗言术:痛
!
冥想
Meditation only applies to Spirit on the Priest, having no effect on "MP5" from Gear. This is an important distinction to understand, because there are many Shadow
牧师
out there that stack only MP5 and take the Meditation Talent, seeing little to no benefit. In a Raid environment, a Shadow Priest will be casting nearly the entire time, either
心灵震爆
or
精神鞭笞
, meaning a Priest will always have Meditation up!
强化心灵之火
Improved Inner Fire is fairly deep in the Discipline tree for most Shadow
牧师
Builds. It is however a great asset when building to prioritize surviving through Melee PvP encounters, particularly against
战士
.
潜行者
will likely use
破甲
, negating Inner Fire almost completely.
精神敏锐
Mental Agility really only applies to a few Spells in the Shadow
牧师
toolkit. Most notably
暗言术:痛
,
真言术:盾
,
驱散魔法
, and
真言术:韧
. These are some of the most commonly used Instant cast Spells, as well as some of the most Mana intensive. Mental Agility is a great Talent to have early on for a Shadow Priest, before they have enough Intellect from gear to support a healthy Mana pool!
强化法力燃烧
Improved Mana Burn, similar to
强化心灵之火
, is mostly only picked up for a Build that wants to specialize versus a specific matchup. In Improved Mana Burn's case, a
牧师
would pick this up when they are trying to counter other Spellcasters, reducing the cast time of
法力燃烧
down to 2.5 seconds. This is great in hectic fights in the middle of Warsong Gulch or at Blacksmith in Arathi Basin.
心灵之力
神圣之灵
意志之力
能量灌注
Mental Strength, Divine Spirit, Force of Will, and Power Infusion are all talents too deep in the Discipline tree for a Shadow
牧师
to pick up. There is a fairly fun build based around Power Infusion,
神圣延伸
,
神圣之怒
, and
灼热之光
. But it is only viable in large PvP engagements, such as Alterac Valley or World PvP. And it is kind of a joke Build.
Holy Tree Talents
治疗专注
Healing Focus, like most talents in the Holy tree, will likely not be picked up by a Shadow
牧师
, pretty much ever. It is possible to pick these up and be Shadow, technically, but it is not recommended. Instead, I'll be analyzing these Talents for the
惩击
and
神圣之火
PvP Build. Healing Focus unfortunately is not picked up for this Build.
强化恢复
Improved Renew, like Healing Focus, is not picked up for the Smite
牧师
PvP Build. Improved Renew can be picked up if a Smite
牧师
is looking to be a Support Hybrid for their team, tossing
恢复
up on their allies.
神圣专精
Holy Specialization is a must have Talent for the Smite
牧师
. Smite Priests are all about Critical Strike chance for massive
惩击
and
神圣之火
damage! This does also apply to any Heals, in case the Smite Priest is support Healing, as well.
法术屏障
Spell Warding is a great Talent to have because in many mass World PvP engagements, enemy
术士
will be tab-DoTing all targets in sight, and
法师
s will be jumping in to pop off
冰锥术
and
魔爆术
, dealing as much damage as they can. Spell Warding can be very powerful in these situations.
神圣之怒
Divine Fury is a key Talent for the Smite
牧师
, reducing the cast time of two of your primary Spells,
惩击
and
神圣之火
, while also being a pre-requisite for
灼热之光
, another key Talent. In a mass World PvP engagement, every microsecond reduction in Cast time is extremely valuable and this Talent goes a long way for a Smite Priest!
神圣新星
Holy Nova is a fantastic Spell for World PvP engagements, allowing a Smite
牧师
to effectively act like a
法师
, running in and spamming Holy Nova to both Heal allies and Damage enemies! With
神圣延伸
, Holy Nova's radius is extremely wide, making it very easy for a Smite
牧师
to catch any nearby
潜行者
!
神恩回复
Blessed Recovery is something to consider for Smite
牧师
who is interested in Support Healing as well. As a Support Healer, you will likely be targeted more often if the enemy team is aware you are Healing. Since you are already seeking unorthodox positioning as a Smite
牧师
, it is likely you will be jumped on by a
潜行者
who is sneaking around the engagement.
灵感
Inspiration is for a Support Healing role as the Smite
牧师
. Because the Smite Priest should be stacking Critical Strike chance on Spells, Inspiration will trigger fairly often, boosting the Healed ally Armor by a significant amount. This can come in handy when Healing a
战士
at the front lines of battle!
神圣延伸
Holy Reach, as previously mentioned, is a key component to a Smite
牧师
build. With the increased range from Holy Reach, both of a Smite Priest's primary Spells,
惩击
and
神圣之火
, can be comfortably cast far from the back of a Priest's group during a large engagement.
强化治疗术
Improved Healing is a great way for a Support Healer Smite
牧师
to help control their Mana issues, in conjunction with
神圣之灵
and
冥想
, a Smite Priest will have a much easier time not going "OOM" when trying to Support Heal.
灼热之光
Searing Light is the final must have Talent for the Smite
牧师
Build. Boosting
惩击
and
神圣之火
damage by a whopping 10% can go a long way, especially when most of the time they will be landing a Critical Strike!
强化治疗祷言
救赎之魂
精神指引
精神治疗
光明之泉
Improved Prayer of Healing, Spirit of Redemption, Spiritual Guidance, Spiritual Healing, and Lightwell are all too deep in the Holy Tree for any type of
牧师
Damage based Build to take advantage of them.
Shadow Tree Talents
精神分流
Spirit Tap is the most powerful leveling Talent in the entire game. Pretty much reducing any down time, a leveling
牧师
will almost never have to sit down for a drink, if using a proper rotation.
暗言术:痛
and
射击
Wand, that's it!
昏阙
Blackout is an extremely nasty PvP Talent, allowing each Shadow Spell cast a 10% chance to Stun! It is important to understand that
暗言术:痛
does not have a chance to Stun on each Tick of Damage, only when the Spell applies the DoT to the target. Same thing applies to
精神鞭笞
, only at the start of the Spell can it trigger Blackout.
暗影亲和
Shadow Affinity is a must have Talent for a PvE Shadow
牧师
. Reducing all Shadow Spell Threat by 25%, means it is much less likely a Critical Strike
心灵震爆
will pull Threat, meaning a Priest can reliably use
心灵专注
for the Crit chance, and not worry about messing up a pull.
强化暗言术:痛
Improved Shadow Word: Pain is one of the worst explained Talents in the game. Essentially, this Talent will add two extra Ticks of Damage to
暗言术:痛
, while dealing the exact same damage per Tick as it did without the Talent. This applies to Spell Coefficient in the same way, as well as how Spell Damage is calculated per Tick.
暗影集中
Shadow Focus is a very powerful and useful Talent, making a
牧师
's life much easier. In PvE, all 5 points are must have. In Classic, it is impossible to reach 100% chance to Not Resist a Spell on the Target, which means for a
牧师
to reach 99% Chance to Hit, they will need 16% Spell Hit. Shadow Focus will give you 10% of that, meaning a Priest only needs 6% from Gear, which is pretty easy to get.
强化心灵尖啸
Improved Psychic Scream should only be picked up for a
牧师
interested in PvP. Since a Priest won't be casting
心灵尖啸
during a PvE encounter most of the time, there really isn't any reason to take this talent. In PvP however, this can be extremely powerful when trying to disrupt the Enemy team in a Warsong Gulch or Arathi Basin.
强化心灵震爆
Improved Mind Blast is a must have talent for a PvE Raiding Shadow
牧师
. Reducing the Cooldown on
心灵震爆
to 5.5 Seconds means a Priest can cast it after every 2 casts of
精神鞭笞
. While a Priest technically only needs 4 points in Improved Mind Blast (reducing the cooldown to 6 seconds), it is recommended you take all 5 points for PvP.
精神鞭笞
Mind Flay is one of the main Spells in a Shadow
牧师
rotation and a must have Talent, period. As previously mentioned, a Rank 1
精神鞭笞
, with enough Spell Damage on Gear, can out perform any Wand's damage in the game, even with 5 points in
魔杖专精
! Furthermore, a Rank 1 Mind Flay costs barely any Mana
(45)
!
强化渐隐术
Improved Fade is something not worth picking up. As mentioned in another Guide,
渐隐术
is not that great of a Spell, because once the Fade ends, any Threat the
牧师
had before will be gained
back
! As I'm sure most Priests are aware, that makes this Talent pretty terrible.
暗影延伸
Shadow Reach is a great Talent for both PvE and PvP. In PvE, it allows the Shadow
牧师
to have more distance from the Boss, allowing for easier positioning and more room to work with to avoid mechanics. In PvP, this enables a Priest a further distance when dealing with Melee enemies. Almost always pick this Talent up!
暗影之波
Shadow Weaving is not optional for a PvE Shadow
牧师
, it is the only reason you are brought to a Raid. Full stacks of Shadow Weaving will increase all the
术士
damage in the raid by a whopping 15%! With enough
术士
s in the Raid, Shadow Weaving will make a significant impact on the Raid's total damage output!
沉默
Silence is a must have Talent for the PvP Shadow
牧师
. It goes without saying, but this Talent enables a Shadow Priest to pretty much solo all other Spellcasters, with ease, in a one versus one scenario. Silence into a full
心灵尖啸
, followed up with an
铁皮手雷
is pretty much death for anybody!
吸血鬼的拥抱
Vampiric Embrace is kind of strange, it is a must have Talent, because it is a pre-requisite for
暗影形态
, but it is not something you'll be using a lot in PvE. While Raiding, you should rarely cast Vampiric Embrace, because it gives extraordinary amounts of Threat. In PvP however, it is extremely powerful, allowing the Shadow
牧师
to self Heal a massive amount, even while Stunned!
强化吸血鬼的拥抱
Improved Vampiric Embrace, as explained with
吸血鬼的拥抱
, is something not worth picking up. Because of the Threat
吸血鬼的拥抱
already generates, adding 10% more healing to it isn't worth taking Talent for the PvE Shadow
牧师
out there.
黑暗
Darkness is very simple, a flat 10% Damage increase for the Shadow
牧师
. I think it goes without saying that this is a must have Talent for the Shadow Priest and should always be maxed out at 5 points.
暗影形态
Shadowform is a big part of why this Build works, a flat 15% increase to all Shadow Damage. Combined with
黑暗
, that is 25% increase to all Shadow Damage, which is fairly significant. All of this combined with stacking a lot of Spell Damage on gear, a Shadow Priest can be much more than just a
暗影之波
robot in a Raid!
Leveling WoW Classic Priest Talent Builds
For leveling as a Priest, the only thing that is "mandatory" is 5 points in
精神分流
and 5 points in
魔杖专精
. This is your primary foundation for leveling. After that's taken, it is completely okay to level up in the Discipline or Holy Tree, taking defensive Talents such as
强化真言术:盾
, or even
精神治疗
, to boost Healing output.
Shadow:
The talents that you'll find in the Shadow tree are very complimentary to one another; by the time you get 31 points in Shadow you will have a lot of synergy between talents that increase your damage, and as a result, your overall leveling efficiency will increase.
魔杖专精
: As
射击
is going to be one of your most consistent sources of damage, many players choose to spec 5 points into
魔杖专精
before moving into the Shadow tree, at level 40 you should respec in order to get
暗影形态
.

As previously mentioned, a Rank 1
精神鞭笞
, with enough Spell Damage on Gear, can out perform any Wand's damage in the game, even with 5 points in Wand Specialization! Furthermore, a Rank 1
精神鞭笞
costs barely any Mana (45)!
I'm sorry, but I don't understand this logic.
Okay, Rank 1
精神鞭笞
does the same or more damage than Wand for nearly no mana. But, using MF will kick you off the 5 seconds rule and you'll lose 85% of mana regen from Spirit. Let's say decently geared SP have 150 spirit total (literally minimal value taking into account that naked '60 will have ~130 of it). So, overall losses would be about (13 + 150/4)*0.85*2.5 =
80.75 MP5
!
Eighty. Damn. MP5. For dps that higher for a minimal insignificant value. It's not looking like any kind of a deal for me...

I have a couple of problems with the shadow builds. It's very easy as a shadow priest to optimize for both pvp and pve.
Spirit Tap only works at level 60 if you land the killing blow on a target. Fine for doing quests, but this is easier said than done in dungeons when you can have a warrior using execute, rogue using eviscerate, warlock using shadowburn, etc. And it's completely useless in raids. Swap those 5 points into Blackout. That stun can proc off of any shadow damage you do, including dots. As an UD priest especially you have 7 damaging spells that the stun can proc off of, that gives you a 70% to get at least one stun during a fight. One stun is all you need sometimes to win you a duel or survive world pvp.
2 points in Improved Shadow Word Pain is not necessary at all for a pve/raiding focused build. In solo play, dungeons and world pvp, your target will likely die before SWP finishes it's regular 18 second duration. And in raids you likely won't be able to use any of your dots because they take up debuff slots. Shadow priest already needs 2 slots. 6 extra seconds is alright in pvp but not absolutely necessary. If you really want 2/2 Imp SWP you can take 2 points out of Imp Mind blast and put them there, or you can take the 2 points and put them into Martyrdom, which boosts your pvp survivability by a lot again.
If you have a tank that requires you to put 3 points in Shadow Affinity AND 5 points in Silent Resolve in order to maintain threat, that is a terrible tank. 3 points in SA is enough (especially since each 1 point in SA is worth double than what 1 point in SR is worth), I would take those points in SR and put them into Improved Psychic Scream and then Silence. For me this is a no-brainer: the benefit of Silence in dungeons is huge, you can force a caster mob into the group that is too close to another pack for the tank to pick it up, and you can prevent some really nasty spells from going off. The combination of Imp PS and Silence is also huge in pvp, every 45 seconds you basically get to delete another caster from existence, and the reduced CD of PS helps if some melee are chasing you.
One of the great things about Shadow Priest is that it's a tree that was meant for pvp but still has decent damage capability in pve, I think with those changes to the raiding/pve builds you have a build that a good shadow priest can do any dungeon, raid, BG and world pvp with.
