the login music brings back so many memories of failed relationships, failed classes, and being a failure to my parents. What a ride!
And now we have the opportunity to do it all over again! THANKS, BLIZZARD!
Think smite priest is missing? Well I have a little follow up video for that... very soon!
Considering that they can out DPS shadow priests (top parses) and some hunters / lower DPS, absolutely! I'm searing light spec this week to speed up our trash time / Loatheb / Grob / Noth kills with DMF.
@@ozo012 exactly. i hope he does a review of night elf smite priest because star shards is instant and 83% spell scaling. solid dps.
@@epjones366 With it's half uptime it kind of suffers overall for dps. You're not really gaining a lot casting it over smite. Where it shines though is casting it when you have to move.
so close to 100k!
@Chris Osoniak The reason smite priests are not brought to raids in Classic and TBC is they give no buffs or utility, other than Power Infusion which is up 1/12 of the fight.
40m group with 5 locks, your shadow-weaving alone is like having 3/4s of a Warlock added to Spriest's damage(over 1/2 of Warlock's damage).
Long fights within warlock party, you can heal them for a minute while Vamp Embrace allows them to life tap allowing them to not go OOM if shit hits the fan and half the melee dies(happens a lot). Neither are meta in Classic, but a spriest holds their own if you have 4+ locks in the group. Meta is 1-2 locks for health and +20 warriors.
In TBC, not only do you give 10% shadow damage to whole raid, but you give 5% spell damage and around 200-350MP5 to the party and triple-quintruple that in HP5.
I once met a true holy priest while questing in Zangarmarsh.
I asked why weren't they casting Shadow Word: Pain or Mind Blast? They responded "I'm a holy priest, I never trained any shadow spells."
Strong RP
May the light be with him
Heroic.
Respect to people actually PLAYING RP and not just typing erotica everywhere.
Hope they were RP walking everywhere for consistency
Prayer of mending is the coolest most fun heal spell ever, that alone makes it a yes for me.
The only spell I like more than Prayer of Mending is Penance, and I'm a Warlock main :P
Are you saying Prayer of Mending is better than Holy Word: Salvation?
@@Hoibz Penance is amazing.
Been waiting for this video. TBC, we rise as one shadow priests ⚪
You sure do!
Looking forward to my first 5 shadow preist premade in pvp.

@0:42 Make the shadows use Multiply or Darken blending mode, instead of normal and transparent :) Great content mate, keep up the good work
Tailoring gear for priest is nice to get started too.
I've been waiting for this, played a priest all through TBC and will be doing so again in TBC Classic
Priest has so many great spells than any other classes IMO. Always my all time favor class.
Shadow priest is a good mana battery for raids. It's always good to bring at least one shadow priest.
party-wide not raid wide
No one said it was raid wide
I dont play wow anymore, but i'll give it a like because you're a nice person
Thanks! And for coming to the streams too!
I loved Imp Div Spirit healing on p server and I can't wait to get back into it in TBCC.
Was hoping you’d talk about and compare shadoweave and spellstrike gear!
Don't need to compare cos you'll be using both sets.
Thanks for the fantastic and informative content as usual @WillE
FYI I'm looking for a skilled priest for 2s on Faerlina once TBC hits. I'll be going S1 glad, maybe 2, 3 depending on how fast it goes
let's gooooo this is the one I've been waiting for
Woohoo! Love seeing these videos on my notifications
Been waiting for this for a while now
Waiting patiently for the lock and hunter video :D
This is an amazing series man!
Ohh i was praying it was the warlock one🙏🏽
*dispels your hope*
Jeez, i really don't know what class I want to play. Every time i see those IIABN series, I think that all classes are so much fun and so interesting... I dont know if I even will play TBC, becouse it's too much to choose and to low time to play all :(
I'm on the same boat!
Great video 👍
Great healer to level up and gear in TBC as an alt in preparation for WOTLK too, since Disc and Holy are both insane, along with shadow!
I’m just waiting for priest in WOTLK. So good
Yessss more WillE
Found the gnome
Guys let get him to 100k, share his channel share it everywhere, he deserves more than this!!!!
Lol dude
@@markxv2267 lol xD
Maining healing priest throughout Classic I've been so eagerly awaiting this one from you, but never wanted to be the guy to pester you with "pwease do pwiest!" comments. So thank you for following through!
Leveling a priest now! Thanks Willie!
0:25 i see gnome
Every tier set is good... its so rare
It's amazing that this just occurred to me, but another intro idea that exists would be "I'm here to ask and answer one simple question: Is your class any better now?" :P
Hey! Alliance Andy ! You forgot Devouring Plague on Undead. Its really good.
all priest "im so hyped for healing"
me the one shadow priest "should i go healing i dont really want to but ik its better" tho tbh in classic spriest are the best pvp class we counter mostly everything in 1v1's but in bc mages and locks are both buffed in pvp
You will no longer be oneshot by a shaman. So that`s an improvement
I'd like to say to my fellow priest healers: do NOT underestimate the 2-piece bonus from tier 5.
It's worth losing a little bit of overall stats from other pieces of gear to keep that two-piece bonus for a long time. A lot of time it's very efficient to be downranking greater heal all the way to rank *2* and if you get clever and follow rank 7 with a rank 2 to top off high HP tanks like Druids you can keep your mana up through very long fights.
Also! Primal Mooncloth! If you've any inclination toward tailoring at all I can't recommend the Primal Mooncloth set enough. It really is comparable to t4 and you can get all the way through Kara on the +healing from Mooncloth and dungeon prebis.
As an additional bonus, you can pass on t4 tokens in favor of your guild's warriors and druids, which makes you a lot of friends.
11/10. My new main.
All classes exept warriors are better now, but okay let's see the video xD
i have no idea how to play a priest. looking forward to learning something new again in classic!
is alchemy stone trinket thats gives 40% more mana from mana potions going to be avail at launch?
Can't wait for the hunter/warlock!
Thinking of taking a break from retail until 9.1 and using the boost on a shadow priest. Wanna see if I can get into tbc raiding.
This is what i've been waiting for :)
I dont wanna be a well accuuuly andy but specing deep holy for pvp is pretty good early on before you get resilliencr. The talent Blessed Resillience is pretty good and i usually run it til i get some gear.
I’ve been kinda up n down with priest its a really cool class but during wrath n even some raids in BC it starts becoming a lot of pressure on you for other peoples mistakes. In the end though I think I’m not gonna regret playing priest I can enjoy being like a medic in tf2 support classes can be fun they r if not just as important as the tank. It may feel like a weak class but survivability by cranking out n focusing on HP and good team work with a tank can actually lead you to being able to nearly solo content with just 2 good teammates. There’s always been a mixed feeling of shadow priest u main warlock so u know they are knock off warlocks n I already do play balance Druid so another knock off warlock or adding another scuffed support class/dps character class is just something but I was getting behind how wands feel how it can feel to switch between specs n that being such a valuable person in PVP in such a stacked server u can really never have enough healers I feel especially on the horde. So being a priest ends up sticking you to this roll that isn’t ever gonna top charts in dps but can do some fun stuff in solo content and PvP with shadow and disc/holy can just make for some really great teammates so when u got a friend to play the game with u can enjoy the class, purely online idk but with a best friend yah can be one of the most rewarding classes that a lot of people skip because they think it’s stuck to healing but you’ll never be able to reach the skies and get away with stuff without having a really good priest which makes it one of the best classes and more then just a heal bot, it really can grant u status in a guild which means faster gear and all that faster groups u name it
wille all of your youtube stream vods have disappeared, I was enjoying watching them. where can I find them now?
I mained a healing Disc Priest in classic. Ive played a priest for years but now I cant decide wether to do disc again or shadow :(((
4:32 Levelingwise priests were already extremely strong in Classic due to their wand.
Think you'll find there will be a massive increase in resto druids, tree form takes poly out of the equation, innervate, shape shifting great tbc heals
can get banished in treeform..
Finally a Priest!!! My main class
waiting for this one :)
so now with the Blue cows is a option which is the best Pve class for preist?
Oh priests in classic WoW (vanilla classic or TBC) are so much more interesting... Even Mind Flay visual effect are much better than in retail. Just look at this, it's looks like Sith Lightning
priests are my second favorite class in wow. in classic it's right behind paladins and in retail they are right behind demon hunters. priests absolutely got better in BC and then again in wrath.
Binding Heal is great, and underrated by the way
I gonna play for priest. That's the only class I had never level up.
I know it's subjective but...imo, the priest tier sets in TBC are THE BEST looking collection of tier gear for any class in any expansion. Blizz art team were really on top of their game here.
I agree and personally think TBC had overall some of the best tier pieces in the game for every class.
i also think that for 20y now. Its gone downhill immediately after and never was good after again
this is when wow starts to get realllll good
I need your huntard in TBC video, need to know if i have to re-roll.
hunters are cosnidering S tier in TBC,,, nothing to worry about 4 u
Been counting the days till I have debuff slots on boss fights, classic was pretty brutal to raid as shadow after bwl when debuffs and other specs became more viable.
play priest
watch video
informative gnome man say priest good
feel good
TBC was my favorite, and least favorite time. My guild never completed BT; but it was a great time to be a shadow priest. Except threat..............
I can't decide what to main in TBC, everything seems cool. Current main is mage.
Yes yes finally! TY
Binding heal is pretty nice in arena
What character are you going to level first in TBC?
Death knight
Im leaning towards necromancer but templar is also interesting
You sure about the symbol of hope? I kind of remember it being a channeled ability.
Pretty sure what you're talking about here is prayer of hope, that's wotlk thing tho and priests get it baseline.
it's not channeled. instant cast, with 15 second duration. hymn of hope is likely what you are thinking of from wotlk+.
@@Maxvla oh right, it's hymn of hope not prayer, damn it's been a while😅
This is why you will have. 100k followers 👌
Most important change: Shadowguard gets its cool shadow orb effect.
I FOUND THAT GOD DAMNIT GNOME
RMP here we go baby
I remember Shadow Priests worked well with Warlocks in 2's...
And rogues
Always flirting with the idea of getting back into this
I dunno how it is in beta but holy priests were godly to me in BC and Wrath lol. BC is where I started holy priest.
Can you mind control lvl 70s in tbc?
I stand in complete and utter confounded awe at the sheer uselessness of the Blood Elf priest racial. (8-O
Should i pick Warlock or Priest?? help !!
Exactly the same choice for me and I decided to go SP just because warlock will be play by sooo much players
finally priest :DDDDDD
i thought tbc is when dots started critting am i remembering wotlk then?
OK in tbc even with VT still have mana issues dot damage ok at best. MB and Swd good combo tho.
The improved divine spirit is more to buff the priest is self, because it stack with spiritual guidance you have 35% of your spirit as extra healing and with more spirit come greater mana regen.
Does chastise break on dmg in tbc?
Hidden gnome 0:25
I can't decide between mage or priest.. I played a druid back in the day. Love arena and heroics/kara. Someone help =)
Muqq in TBC always topped the meters...
wheres the warlock in tbc video?
I was hoping we'd get the version of Circle of Healing that isn't limited to the target's party from when they buffed it before the Sunwell patch. I remember CoH being just okay before then.
You're talking about wotlk prepatch coh.
no mention of shadowplay in arena?
I was warlock going into classic, now a Hpriest preparing for TBC!!
Such a hard choice, shammy, Rdruid, and I played both those already in wrath.
Priest time, all raids, I will do all tbc raids, I can't wait fellas!
Can't wait for Hunters will be hunted.
good song by Heaven shall burn btw.
I can’t decide, I have 3 60s mage priest and warlock what should I main? I want to dps
Or just boost a Hunter? 🤔
warlock and hunter are gonna be as over represented in raids as warriors are in classic. im not saying you shouldn't roll either of them but just know that there will be a billion locks/hunters looking for the same raid spots as you will be.
Mage
@@Cynsham Well you need as much warlock as you can have in a raid, so you will never struggle to find a group. You need a single mage/spriest per raid however
@@Everall-z Not necessarily. While it's true that you're going to want to bring more warlocks/hunters than other dps in an "ideal" raid comp, just like Warrior in classic there will quite literally be tens of thousands of them on every single server trying to get into an even more limited amount of raid spots than in Classic.
It's 10 negatives from allies, 10 positives from enemies
Shadow priest and lock is nasty in 2s
So is shadow priest finally useful? LOVED it in classic but it was such a meme :(((
ALways liked the idea of shadowpriests, unfortunately its current iteration in retail is just not fun at all, the baseline DoTs are weak as hell, including mind flay and most of the damage comes from mind blasts and void bolts, it just doesn't really fit the fantasy when the damage is suppose to come predominantly from DoTs.
IDK if were playing a different retail but shadow pumps with dots
do you even play retail? mindblast hits like a wet nudle without talbadars and void bolt does pretty low damage without the conduit. Top damage on any single target encounter is devouring plague which is a dot..
@@mvpeteb1044 Get a legendary and do up to 20k mindblasts, the hell are you talking about. DoTs are laughable, aside from DP, have you even seen VT and SWP dmg? non-existent, the 2 iconic spells of a shadowpriest. then look at classic, tbc, wrath, where those spells actually do damage.
Why are you talking about retail on a TBC oriented video. No one asked for your opinion on retail on a classic tbc video dude.
@@Kristers_K Even with that legendary (talbadars) DP still does more damage. imo shadow is in the best spot its been in for a long time.
Anyone know what the priest discord is?
BC is probably better for the level 70, but much worse for the dude leveling from 1-70. Speaking from personal experience. Everyone is old and doesn't have the time to group up and do dungeons any more I suppose, so it's all about getting boosted if you didn't transfer from classic. The dude that comes in alone and just wants to group up and do a low level dungeon without getting boosted is kind of screwed. LFG channel is spammed with level 70 content, the voice saying "lfg bfd" is lost in the wind.
I played Holy back in original TBC. It was a blast and highly recommended.
I will however be maining something different this time. Probably resto druid.
I still dont buy this idea that shadow priests only leveling ability was wand. I stacked +spirit gear and I was able to use all my abilities (Mind blast and mind flay) on every mob doing max damage and i still never had to drink
So hard to find this vid holy hell. Algorithm doesn't like priests
Imp DS is one of those talents that sounds great, but really isn't. It'll benefit a Balance Druid by about 42-ish Spell Power in T4 and Mages/Shadow Priests by about 20...and that's about it. Warlocks, Prot Warriors and Ele Shaman (who also use Spell Power) will have very low Spirit, meaning it kind of sucks for them. The overall benefit to the raid is practically nothing, especially since you sacrifice throughput to get it.
That Draenei racial spell though :O
