Could you the fire sp you were using prior to level 60, and the frost sp that you useurrently? That will have a big impt on us being able to divine what's going on. Also, an armory profile would be helpful.
Well, I think the big reason is that Frost is literally ALL aboutrits. With shatter and being able to freeze targets in ple and then pr more shatterrits... and the rit damage talent, Frost has some potential to be very nasty in pvp and world pve. The biggest problem with Frost in raids and sh.... is that bosses are immune to being fro...

Frost with better
2009-06-15
Probably bause you;reomparing Frost with better gear to fire with worse gear. Even at low gear levels, Fireball should outdamage Frostbolt (remember toount ignie in firerits) though fire ales better with gear and is thus superior to frost at higher gear levels. At lower gear levels frostbolt and waterbolt(averaged) togetheran outdamage fireball, but not frostbolt alone. EDIT: Although it made itlearer, Iould not live with my bad grammar.
As mh as I hate tually admitting this, fire WILL out damage frost in a raidinstae situation among equally geared mages. Frost is awesome. I am AaneFrost bause I love the +damage, +intellt, POM, AP, Y Veins....its all fun. I am however looking into respcing into fire, but ...

2009-06-02
At level 65, as a shadow priest, i dided i don't go to instaes until i hit 70 and get all possible quests done. Been there, done that. I soloed my way until all i had left were few group quests (5man), whh iould have done as shadow, and the rest were quests that had to be done in instaes. I gathered all gear that iould. From quests, tailoring, few instaes i've been. So, at level 70, eager to raid, i had damage gear with +600 damage and healing gear with +1200 healing. So i did my resp, went holydi (SoLimp DS) and started healing instaes. tually i love healing, so i prefer this now. I have absolutely no problem healing whatsoever instae. Haven't...

2009-06-02
I was reading this thread with interest as I play both a warrior and a priest, with my main being the warrior. The aggro problems you are beginning to experiee I think stem from 2 main ftors. The first being the improved gear spelasters have been getting ever sie Tame out. The additional +damage and ritanause serious additional threat. This isompounded by the sond ftor, whh is that the warrior threat building skills do not ale well. That is, they are about as afftive at end game as when we first hit 70. To give an example, I have been tanking for my guild for some time, and in the first few weeks of being level 70 had absolutely no problem holding aggro. As we are winding up towards Kara, I have noted that the threat generated by ourastersan easily pass mine wh...

the aggro problem Did theaulations
2009-06-02
Yea, I just figured out part of the aggro problem. Did theaulations for another thread - aggro on my high-damage rotation (SWP, VT, VE, MF, SWDMB every 9 sonds), I easily break 1.6k threat per SOND, and that's in a raid situation where I'll be doing less threat (assumed 5 tks of VT and 2 VE, versus 3-4 VT and 2-5+ VE in many 5-mans). I knew it was high, I had no idea it was THAT high. Wish I knew a 70 pally Iould run with >.< I'd definitely mah your tailoring sp to your sp. Shadoweave is bar none the best shadow gear in the game pending Blk Temple's release; same for PMooloth for healing. Tier 5 is NO mah for those two sets.
lsfreak- Yeah I know my gear is horrible. After I got to OL I took a new job and I work a ton more hours now. Ian only play ...

throw up a thread about shadow
2009-06-02
Gear, my spialty :D I really should throw up a thread about shadow priest gear and try and get it stkied. First off, the really easy stuff. Get to the AH, find yourself a Flawless Wand of Shadow Power. Wah that AH like a hawk ;P Also,loak of the Blk Void (an hour of farming tops) and Khorium Band of Shadow (again, an hour, though the mats here are usuallyheap enough it's better to get them off the AH). Finally, 15 Hellfire PvP tokens and go to Zangarmarsh for your Mark of Defiae. Spellstrike Pants are bar none the best shadow priest pants in the game right now, though personally I'm taking tier 4 helm over the spellstrike hood (partly for the -2% threat meta gem Ian throw in there). I wouldn't bother with Battlast. Also, be sure to throw the right ehants and gems on your stuff. Myst Spellthread on your pants, Inrtion of Diline (hope you're Aldor :P) on your shoulders, and pretty mh all Runed Living Rubies in skets (only eeptions Ian see are dmghit and dmgint gems from Heros, and the very rare ins...

2009-06-02
Funny how it turned out. I hit 70 during the last day of Mah. Did quest leading to karazhan key and turned HolyDi. But theah is iam less wanted by peers for instaes now lol, remembered a druid asked me toome to mh, and his response to me turning Holy wasn't as i thought, he tually perfered me staying Shadow and was surprised that I respced quite fast. Nethertheless we still did mh but then realm maintainae had to ruin our wonderful group. :(
I <3 Isfreak. I really think that if you have the time and the energy you should write up a strtured Shadow Priest gear guide and have it added to the Shadow Priest Stky. Or, make your own stky :) Either way, it would be ne to give people an idea of what t...

I just keep my healing gear up-to-date so Ian main heal with a bit of bkup if I need to. Wouldn't even both trying in heros and raids, though. Youonvied me, I'm slowly putting together a guide to the best shadow priest gear at level 70. Anyone know if Ian get item links in the text (like on the news, where it pops up in a window), or do I just have to link to the page? EDIT: Damn, premium member only thing, and I'mheap :( [wowitem=27781]Demonfang Ritual Helm[wowitem]
I've noted lately in Generalhat that more and more ppl are looking for Shadow Priests spifally. I think bause wean bring VE VT and Misery to the fight. VE VT to help keep a fairly steady stream of mana and health flowing and bump other PriestsWarlksMages damage outp...

Holyrap! You have a level 200 undead priest??? Gratz!!
That was a typo thanks
Hijking for the HORDE!!
In the talent dertion it says "after killing a target that gives experiee." So, sie im a PvP shadow priest, i skped it, sie you don't get xp from killing players. But I've seen in several guides that you should "max spirit tap to get bk mana when spamming MF on people" And if it does, I personally don't think it would be of mh use in pvp sie it only takes efft when you kill a target. Whh will happen, but maybe not enough to spend 5 points in it. On the other hand, im new to priests so iould be wrong. Thanks for any help :)

2009-06-02
di will get you.. well.. nowhere :) It's ment as a support tree (even if it lks support :P). If you want to tually do some damage, go for Surge of Light: like this. Then max Spirit Tap (to solo without stopping). Then take meditation. Then Divine Spirit. Then maybe some Foe Of Will, but you are level 70 already when you get that far. Or aim to get Mind Flay also :P
I'd agree, get some points in Holy before Di. Di is support and really doesn't offer a lot on its own. For now, I'd suggest a slighthange in the build Pilgrim offered (here Basa...
