The last lap on World of Warcraft<\/strong> Hotfixes bring some PvP adjustments and, above all, the shadow priest is doctored around.<\/p>\n

World of Warcraft - Changes to the Shadow Priest<\/h2>\n

The "Void eruption"<\/strong> no longer scales with the number of "Shadow word: pain"<\/strong> or "Vampire Touch"<\/strong> on every target. With the change, damage is now dealt once if at least one of the two spells is active on the target.<\/p>\n

Instead, the damage of the void eruption has been increased enormously, namely by 700%.<\/p>\n

At the Shadow floor<\/strong> the cooldown time was reduced from 30s to 20s, but Blizzard increased the madness generation from 15 to 20 and the projectiles now fly 60% faster.<\/p>\n

To compensate for the intensification of the void eruption "Heart of the Void" the damage of only 75% instead of 300% and heals 15% less (25% instead of 40%).<\/p>\n

With "Shadow Word: Pain" and "Vampire Touch" the damage is reduced by 4% to compensate for the amplification of the void eruption in long battles.<\/p>\n
