I levelled as Shadow in BfA beta and it was worse, much worse than Legion Shadow levelling.
How's Disc in that regard?

I haven't played BFA beta, but I normally always play the spec I'm going to main the entire leveling experience. So because I'm going to main Disc I will be leveling as disc, to help me get comfortable with my spec by the time I hit max level. Also Disc is finally getting back Holy Nova which will help a lot of aoe pulls with Purge the Wicked. I would assume it will be okay, especially with Atonement healing since we will get healed from both Purge and Holy nova. Seems like it would be pretty smooth.
with a modicum of gear: shadow; from 118+ maybe disc
I would 100% recommend disc, I leveled up to about 118 or so as shadow, pulling 3-4 mobs made me have to use mind bomb/dark ascension to clear them and id have about 30-40% hp after the pull, couldnt solo the 3 player elite quests at all either. Switch to disc, could start pulling 5+ mobs or any elite quest mob and finish with full hp. Its not even close how much stronger disc is for soloing.
I recommend DISC too. It's solid for killing mobs, and the survivability is through the roof.
Warmode makes Disc viable
You can now take Dark Archangel (15% damage for 8 sec, 1 min cd), Searing Light (15% extra smite damage, Penance CD reduced by 1 sec every time you smite) and Trinity (atonement from PW:S lasts 30 sec and you heal for 80% of your damage)
