    * Shadow Priests will most likely get a nuke without cooldown in Cataclysm.


    I can die happy.

    Don't we already have a spammable nuke? Isn't it called Mind Flay?


    I'm not exactly sure I like this change.

    I'm sure they'll work in a synergy with mindflay to make the playstyle more interesting. I think the big reason is to allow Spriests more ability for burst... esp for PvP.

    And to increase single target damage, specifically in the direct damage portion so Shadow doesn't flop later on in progression?

    Yeah... though I don't know how that will work for the scaling issues. If NewSpell>Mindflay... then your just going to sub in NewSpell in-between your DoT refreshing and MB CD. Perhaps Hitting MF to refresh SW:P. Of course, its all speculation as the talent trees are going to be drastically changed.

    The interesting thing is, with the coefficient from INT->SP, we might see Spriests specing into Mental Strength, assuming the talent will still exist and is reachable with 5 more talent points.

    Honestly... I think they should use the HFDoT/Smite glyph synergy for shadow. Incorporate a short duration DoT into MB that increases the damage of NEWSPELLHERE by X% while its up on the target.
