Make sure to navigate to other pages of the guide to find more in-depth information, as each works as a knowledge hub for their subject.
Class Overview for Shadow Priest in Wrath of the Lich King
Shadow Priest loses its main aspect from TBC, going from primarily support to primarily DPS. Shadow Priest's are now competitive DPS throughout the entire expansion but don't bring any unique support. The most unique aspect of Shadow Priest in Wrath of the Lich King is
消散
, a 2-minute cooldown that reduces all damage taken by 90% and makes you immune to stuns, fears, silences, snares and movement impairs. Because this isn't an immunity, you can use it to soak mechanics that Paladin bubbles couldn't.
Shadow Priest still has an involved rotation that primarily focuses on juggling cooldowns, DoT uptime and effective use of fillers.
If you are the type of person who likes to choose your class based on its power in the current raid, we have prepared a Tier List that goes over the best DPS specs in the current raid tier and an explanation on why from our Class Writers.

Class Changes for Shadow Priest in Wrath of the Lich King
Changes to Priest Racials
绝望祷言
is now baseline
噬灵疫病
is now baseline
希望圣歌
, formerly Symbol of Hope is now baseline
All other Priest Racials such as Starshards and Shadowguard are removed.
Changes to existing abilities & talents
暗影交织
no longer stacks on your target, instead stacking on the Shadow Priest. This changes
暗影交织
into a personal buff instead of a raid-wide debuff.
暗影形态
now gives
暗言术:痛
,
噬灵疫病
and
吸血鬼之触
the ability to crit, and
噬灵疫病
and
吸血鬼之触
the ability to benefit from haste. Notably,
暗言术:痛
can crit but does not benefit from haste. You can also cast
驱除疾病
and
祛病术
without breaking
暗影形态
.
吸血鬼的拥抱
is now a 30-minute self buff, giving it 100% uptime. The healing has been significantly reduced for everyone but the player, making it more akin to passive health regeneration for your party as opposed to supplementing healers.
吸血鬼之触
now procs
恢复
instead of its own unique mana regeneration. Additionally, if
吸血鬼之触
is dispelled it will deal a chunk of damage.
精神鞭笞
is now 30-yard range, matching the rest of your spells.
悲惨
is now 3% spell hit, a shared debuff with Balance Druids. The talent also increases the Spell Power gained by
心灵震爆
,
精神鞭笞
and
精神灼烧
.
强化心灵震爆
also reduces the healing done to the target for 10 seconds.
精神分流
is no longer a 5-point talent and instead is split into the 3-point Talent
精神分流
and the 2-point talent
强化精神分流
.
精神分流
is mostly the same, but
强化精神分流
gives you the ability to proc
强化精神分流
during fights effectively.
强化暗言术:痛
no longer increases duration, instead increasing damage.
强化真言术:韧
now also grants 4% Stamina to the Priest.
神圣之灵
and
精神祷言
are now baseline.
坚韧祷言
,
精神祷言
and
暗影防护祷言
are now raid-wide.
噬灵疫病
no longer has a cooldown.
暗影能量
now increases critical damage bonus instead of critical chance.
Most of these changes help bring Shadow in line with the general Wrath of the Lich King balance philosophy of bring the player not the class. Our unique support aspects are replaced with shared buffs and debuffs. A few of these talents also help even out the jank that Shadow has suffered since the release of Classic, like
精神鞭笞
being a mid range spell making positioning odd at times. The rest just serve to make Shadow a generally more coherent spec.
New abilities & talents
神圣赞美诗
is a channeled smart heal, filling the same role as
宁静
.
精神灼烧
is the first ever Shadow Priest AoE! Finally you can actually contribute during big trash packs instead of going on a snack break. This spell works effectively the same as
精神鞭笞
, but dealing AoE damage instead of single target. This spell does not deal damage to its primary target, only everything else close by.
希望圣歌
is an altered version of Symbol of Hope, previously a Draenei Priest racial. This spell is a channeled smart mana restore for your raid.
遮蔽之影
reduces the cooldown of
渐隐术
and
暗影魔
.
心灵熔化
increases the critical chance of
心灵震爆
,
精神鞭笞
,
精神灼烧
,
吸血鬼之触
,
噬灵疫病
and
暗言术:痛
.
强化噬灵疫病
increases the damage
噬灵疫病
deals as well as giving it an upfront damage component.
强化暗影形态
gives your
渐隐术
a chance to remove all movement impairs, as well as pushback protection while in
暗影形态
.
心灵惊骇
is a 2-minute cooldown Horrify and Dismantle. Horrify is a Fear that makes the target stand in place instead of run away, and Dismantle is a Disarm that also effects ranged weapons.
饱受折磨
makes your
精神鞭笞
refresh
暗言术:痛
on its target, as well as reduces the backlash damage from
暗言术:灭
. This talent effectively means you never have to recast
暗言术:痛
during a fight.
扭曲信仰
gives you 20% of your Spirit as Spell Power, as well as increasing the damage of
精神鞭笞
and
心灵震爆
on targets with
暗言术:痛
up.
消散
is a 2-minute cooldown that reduces all damage taken by 90% and regenerates mana every second for 6-seconds but makes you unable to cast during that time. This spell also breaks almost all CC on cast and makes you immune to them for the duration.
双生戒律
replaces Wand specialization in the Discipline tree, increasing the damage and healing of your instant spells.
There are a ton of additions here, and most of them are fantastic.
饱受折磨
makes your rotation a lot smoother,
扭曲信仰
makes your gearing a lot easier. Overall none of these drastically change the way you play, but they all contribute to a smoother and more enjoyable Shadow Priest experience.
Class Viability for Shadow Priest in Wrath of the Lich King
Shadow Priest is perfectly fine and should have no issues finding a raid spot. The trend of a more involved rotation for similar results to other classes continues here though, so typically you will be putting in more effort to do the same DPS as some other, simpler classes.
Shadow Priest brings a few of the necessary buffs and debuffs for a raid.
恢复
is a must-have, and while it is covered by a few classes, more is rarely a bad thing.
神圣之灵
,
真言术:韧
and
暗影防护
are covered by any priest, but they are all must-haves in every raid.
悲惨
gives spell hit, which every raid will want to bring and only Shadow Priest and Balance Druid bring this particular debuff.
Class Mechanics for Shadow Priest in Wrath of the Lich King
Shadow Priest doesn't have any unique resources or mechanics the way some classes do, but they have a mostly unique gameplay style. Shadow Priests want to juggle their 3 DoTs,
吸血鬼之触
,
暗言术:痛
and
噬灵疫病
while also keeping
心灵震爆
on cooldown as much as possible. Between these casts you will typically fill the space with
精神鞭笞
as much as you can.
Shadow Priest's also lack cooldowns the way many other classes do. You won't have a big button you press during
嗜血
to deal massive damage, but you do have
暗影魔
, a small temporary pet that mostly just slaps things for its duration.

Best Races for Shadow Priest in Wrath of the Lich King
Race
死亡骑士
德鲁伊
猎人
法师
圣骑士
牧师
潜行者
萨满祭司
术士
战士
人类
矮人
暗夜精灵
侏儒
德莱尼
兽人
亡灵
牛头人
巨魔
血精灵
Alliance
Human offers a 3% boost to Spirit with
人类精魂
, giving us some Spell Power when combined with
扭曲信仰
.
生存意志
is also one of the strongest PvP racials in the game and has a decent amount of niche use in raids too, working identically to a PvP trinket without needing to equip one.
外交
is a nice little cherry on top of everything else, giving you 10% more reputation gained, making exalted with the many factions a bit faster.
Draenei gives
英雄灵气
to your party, a 1% hit chance increase. This is fantastic and you will always want this, but you only need one Draenei per party and it doesn't have to be you.
Horde
For Horde the choice is a lot easier. Trolls are by far the best race choice for DPS Priests in Wrath of the Lich King.
狂暴
is now a flat 20% cast speed cooldown instead of scaled based on health, making it an incredible cooldown for a class that is drastically lacking in cooldowns. On top of that you also get
野兽杀手
, giving you 5% increased damage versus beasts, and while there aren't many beasts in Wrath of the Lich King raids, this is a freebie anyway.
Undead get an honorable mention here for their PvP-focused ability
被遗忘者的意志
. This spell is only useful in a handful of PvE encounters that involve a fear, charm, or sleep effect. In most PvE situations, Undead will perform worse than the other Horde race options for a Shadow Priest.
Best Professions for Shadow Priest in Wrath of the Lich King
For almost every class in Wrath of the Lich King you will want to be an Engineer. Theres no getting around it, the benefits are massive and you don't want to be left behind when everyone else rocket boots into the fray.
工程学
Engineering adds a ton of gadgets, toys and enchants. Most of these are just for fun, but a lot of them are fantastic for both PvE and PvP content.
硝化甘油推进器
is the rocket boots of previous expansions, now in enchant form. Never worry about if you forgot to unequip your rocket boots, or wait for the cooldown from swapping. With this you will always be able to zoom off into the sunset. As the cherry on-top, this also gives 24 Crit Rating.
弹带
, reusable, infinite grenades whenever you want.
超级加速器
is one of the primary reasons Shadow Priest wants
工程学
. This is a 1-minute cooldown on-demand Haste buff. This helps fill out the lack of cooldowns and can have around 20% uptime even.
手部火箭发射器
isn't that great, but I do want to mention just how fun it is to shoot a wrist rocket every 45 seconds. Sadly this does not stack with
超级加速器
so you are unlikely to use it regularly.
弹力蛛丝
not the best for Priests, because we have
漂浮术
, but the 27 Spell Power is better than the usual enchant so why not bring a parachute.
虫洞生成器:诺森德
is an honorable mention, a free portal to a few zones in Northrend. This just makes travel that much more convienent.
基维斯
is a reusable Repair Bot, as well as a bank for any Engineers. Very much worth having a few in a raid team.
裁缝
亮纹刺绣
is a fantastic Cloak enchant, giving 295 Spell Power for 15-seconds on proc. This is incredibly strong if the proc lines up with other procs and on-use abilities, but does have a fairly long cooldown, so its value depends heavily on luck.
神圣魔线
is just
辉煌魔线
but significantly cheaper, so you save a decent amount of Gold enchanting your pants.
珠宝加工
符文龙眼石
are
珠宝加工
exclusive gems. In total you can put 3 of these in your gear, giving a total of 117 Spell Power, which is 48 Spell Power more than 3
符文赤玉石
would be.
雕像 - 暮光蛇
isn't fantastic, but it is a solid leveling and pre-raid item. Consider grabbing one if you are
珠宝加工
already, but it isn't worth swapping professions over.
附魔
附魔戒指 - 强效法术能量
, the famed Ring Enchants are still around in Wrath of the Lich King, this time giving 23 Spell Power each, for a total of 46 Spell Power as a perk of being an Enchanter. Remember, if you drop Enchanting, these Ring Enchants will stop working!
