    Worth getting Imp Inner Fire for shadow?

    So with the changes made to inner fire (it buffs spell power also) is it worth going that far into disc to get it?

    It increase inner fire by 30%, so 120 spell power would turn in 36 extra spell power, so 156 spell power from the buff.

    Going from the standard build 14/0/57 to 18/0/53
    Personally I had to drop imp VE and improved range, not a huge loss.

    Unsure though if its worth it, guess we'll see

    Unfortunately, it only affects healing, so it's not really worth it to get it if you're going shadow...

    you should just go for the first 14 points in Disc and dump the rest in shadow.

    Patch notes state that inner fire will be change to affect spell power also instead of just healin spell power...

    Yes, inner fire the spell will be spellpower - but the talent will only affect the healing part.

    well i personally like to spec into imp ve, simply because our tanks are great, and i have enough hit to max out imp MB and imp VE. Its a personal choice, and i even beat healers sometimes (our crappy ones)

    I'm really confused at why you didnt take Pain and Suffering. That talent alone increases your overall dps by a lot. Never having to refresh SW:P increases your dps and saves you a lot of mana.

    Do you play a shadowpriest? or are you just skeptical about how great that talent is.

    Here's a (slightly) better way:
    http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?prie...10305150501251
    You don't need that point in mental agility, and can (hopefully) get away with 3/5 shadow weaving. 2 points in pain + suffering > mental agility.
    It's luck-based if this spec pays off though, your pain + suffering and shadow weaving could "resist" a few times too often and you'll lose your debuff. You could give up shadow reach if you needed the guarantee that shadow weaving and SW:P stick though.

    That point in silent resolve is worthless. It would have more worth in Absolution, seeing as you'll use dispel magic, or mass dispel more often. You shouldn't have to worry about your dots being dispelled, or your holy/disc threat...

    This is probably the spec I will be looking at. Personally, I think pvp is just as boring and scripted as pve...but people tend to like to gank me, hence the points into imp fear and shadowform.

    Re: Worth getting Imp Inner Fire for shadow?

    this is the spec i'm going to use (for pve):

    http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?prie...10305152501351


    pain and suffer is to important to drop it, improved shadow form could help in differnt situations. About improved inner fire, well this talent will work just with healing so it'a useless for spriest, and even it should work with spell power i think + 36 spell dmg can't be that goos as other shadow talents are. plus u should spend some useless points in disc tree to get imp inner fire.

    Re: Worth getting Imp Inner Fire for shadow?

    it will work as spell dmg in future saw blue post about that, still its a lot of talents to sacrifice for mere 60 spell dmg upgrade hard to say is it really worth it.

    Re: Worth getting Imp Inner Fire for shadow?

    When I do out some shadow specs, I lose exactly 2 points in Imp. Mind Blast, and 2 points in Imp. Shadow Form, in order to get to Inner Fire. I'm still not positive it's worth it, but I do know that dumping those talents isn't as huge a deal as you're saying, I suppose it depends on the direction Blizz goes with raids at 80.

    If for example they decide to make most fights have some form of AoE, that 70% resist to spell interruption could be quite useful, however if it's mostly tank and spank, I'd more than likely go with Imp. Inner Fire, unless there's something I'm missing.

    apart from MB being basicly still the highest dmg move we got?

    My spec for sure. Putting more talents in disc is a waste in my eyes. and every priest should have pain and suffering. I just took the imp fear to horror points to make it slightly more interesting in pvp.

    This is what I'll be using most likely.

    And pray that the new shadoworm (-30% treath) will be enough with only 2 talents in shadow affinity.

    The way I see it Inner Fire increases healing spell power, so damage spell power isn't increased. Improved Inner Fire increases that amount, again not affecting damage spell power. Sgadowpriests have no use for this at all.
    Statix will suffice.
