Comentário de Shadowb

Shadow word: death is an amazing spell!! it currently receives 100% of +damage and healing gear and it is instant cast, which is HUGE, especially for pvp since it has only a 6 second cooldown it is somewhat spamable. the "you take damage if the target doesn't die" is sometimes an issue, but not really considering the health that you will have at 62-70. this spell really adds to a priest's dps!

Comentário de 11480

This spell can really put out some high crits. As far as I know, you're able to negate the damage done to yourself if you shield and/or take a shadow protection pot. Really nice way to get some instant damage and finish someone off.

Comentário de tousdan

As a part Holy/Disc DPS'er in some instances where we can afford two healers, I must say that this spell adds a whole lot to a priest's dps output if you have lightwell as one of your talents.

Just let your Main healer know that you will take care of healing yourself and just use the lightwell every 2-3 PW:Deaths.

Oh and yeah, it's a great way to NOT give honor or marks in pvp. :)

Comentário de Limiter

I looked at the rank 1 comments, and there's a post saying this gets 100% of dmg, even though it is instant. Can anyone confirm this?

Comentário de 39423

Are you able to neutralize the damage if you have Shadow Protection or Prayer of Shadow Protection up?

Comentário de 10844

if i have reflective shield and i use shadow word death wil i then throw 50% extra dmg back in his face??

Comentário de 22744

DO NOT!!!
I REPEAT DO NOT use this skill on the Curator during his evocate phase (w/o a shadow prot pot and/or PW:shield, if you have less then 8k~9k health) or else if it crits you could 1 shot youself.
I am the kind of person who values spell damage and spell hit ABOVE everything else, (namely stam) and i have around 7100 health full raid buffs in dps gear (some "...Of shadow wrath" greens, which have no stats besides +shadow damage).
P.S. I learned this the hard way....

Aside from that...... this can be a lifesaving (lol irony) spell in pvp encounters, as if you time it very carefully you can rid yourself of sheep/ice trap. here are the steps:
1. Full health mage targets you for sheep and begins casting it you auto-target him back....
2. you wait until there is LESS THEN .3 seconds left of his sheep cast and spam click this spell
3. your spell hits the mage, and doesnt kill him, the damage you deal hits you and takes you out of sheep
4.GG /laugh (if it happens again within 12 seconds, hopefully you had your insignia on...)
or for hunter:
1. Hunter scatter shots you, and runs over to you.....
2. spam click this spell asap b4 you get traped..... (notice this is much harder to execute them Sheep as ice trap will imoblize you as soon as you are not affected by Scatter)

I encourage that you practice this with a mage or hunter buddy so you will be able to laugh at your CCer next time.
P.P.S. this might also be viable against fear (as it has a finite chance to break on damage).

Comentário de 22744

Prayer of Mending is very useful if ya plan on useing this spell when ever its up.
BUT whats more useful is if ya got a Druid Healer in you raid, just ask if they can throw ya a Life bloom at the beginning of a pull and you can safely and planned SW:D your target.
AND if your druid is a very coordinated healer just ask them to always throw up another LB on ya after one expires.

Comentário de savagy

Can someone tell me what happens if this spell is resisted? Do you still get damaged?

Comentário de Furby

Just an absolute killer in PvP.
And is even extremely useful as a PvE spell.
As a level 64 (ATM =) ) Shadow Priest, all i have to do is VT, x2. By then the mob should be down to about 40%, otherwise i just wand until the mob is. Then i just do one Mind Blast and SW:D and the mob's dead. If NOT, then ofc i will loose a lot of my hp. BUT, on the next mob, i just add Vampiric Embrace. And poof, my hp is full again.

Comentário de Phate01

Lol, the name of the avatar is for some reason 'Spell_Shadow_DemonicFortitude' instead of say..
'Spell_Shadow_ShadowWordDeath'

Comentário de Stiverton

If death is caused by the damage taken from SWD then you will not suffer durability damage. A nice way to save some money.

Comentário de calophi

This spell is great when you're grinding in an area where the mobs run away in fear from low health. It's a great way to take out the runners before they can go aggro another mob to help them. Plus, if they're running you know that the spell is likely to take them out instead of rebounding back at you.

Comentário de 24269

If this spell gets reflected when you cast it, you receive damage x 2.

Comentário de 13635

If you shadow word death someone, and it crits but doesnt kill them, does it also count as a crit on you? and if so, can that proc blessed recovery?

Comentário de 94757

I know a priest that used this on Curator on evocate, and Prince during enfeeble on the same run.

God that was a fun day :D

Comentário de 136306

nice way to put it queggy :)

Comentário de 139226

Let's say i cast this spell on a mage, and he doesn't die, can i reflect the shadow damage i would have taken with the Ultra-Flash Shadow Reflector?

Comentário de Geri00

Can I cast this while enemy is behind me?

Comentário de 124322

so.... if you use this spell on a warrior and he spell reflects, and the dmg doesnt kill you, does the warrior still take the damage?

Comentário de lalilol

Just wanna add how nice this is to combine with reflective shield (disc. talent).

At lvl 62 my SWD hits for about 700. Those 700 hit my reflective shield and gets absorbed. My reflective shield then every now and then (quite often) crits the mob back for about 700. Or my SWD crits for about 1000 and the shield hits for about 500. Either way about 1400 - 1500 instant dmg.

It has yet to happen, but theoretically my SWD could crit for about 1100 which is also about the maximum of my PWS which then could crit for another 900 or so giving a total maximum of about 2000 instant dmg.

Comentário de 166046

For any pvpers out there, you can use this to break sheep,fear and even blind if you cast it at the last moment. from server lag or something

Comentário de Artea

As a holy priest, I usually only use this for sending my Prayer of Mending back to more useful locations. A useful experience a fellow priest learned recently during a naxx 25man run: Don't use this to kill zombie chow on Gluth. She had not been topped up after decimate, managed to one shot herself.

Comentário de Psynergy

This spell can also help yourself avoid getting CC'd by means of Sap, Polymorph, Repentance and the like if timed right

Comentário de 152455

It's not from server lag, it's because the damage is applied as a one-tick DoT, so it's not instant. by Okiesmikie

hum. One tick DoT? damage OVER TIME implies always multiple ticks. Thats sort of the point of it...

Yes, the first poster IS right. If a perfect (imposible) situation existed, either you would cast SW:D first and the recoil damage would happen exactly then (which is to say, polymorph would be cast after that split-second), or you would get a "you can't do that while polymorphed" error message. If both casts were exactly at the same time (You cast SW:D EXACTLY when polymorph ends), it'd be a kinda strange thing - most likely you'd leave Poly then, but it would imply you cast ecaxtly after the spell begun, factoring all haste effects on the mage... If you're that fast, you have my respect.

Comentário de Toldry

This spell seems to give you a hiden buff/debuff called "Shadow Word: Death" when you cast it, for a split second, probably to function as the thing that does damage to you when you cast SW:D.

I tried to make a macro that cancels that buff in order to avoid the damage;

/cast Shadow Word: Death
/cancelaura Shadow Word: Death

But it doesn't seem to work.

Comentário de 268034

Being a healer Disc Priest lvling up I find this ability usefull in two ways. To begin with my rotation is PW:S > Penance > HF > Smite and many times target get to be ~500-800HP after the end of this rotation so SW:D really finishes th target at a low manacost instantily, second use is since i got 100% PW:S Uptime and i could use some mana from rapture using SW:D while its on if the target manages to break the shield i get a free SW:D.

Comentário de 254321

see a mage casting polymorph at you? use shadow word: death

Comentário de 297218

Can caster resist damage even if it damages target?

Comentário de 334003

Note - do not use on Hodir =]

I have seen a video where one Spriest crits with this with the 400%-odd crit damage buff and the +50% magic damage taken buff on. He hit Hodir for 40k. 1-shotted himself from full hp. XD

Comentário de Stormwaker

My mage friend comically likes to call it Shadow Word: Ninja. In battlegrounds or arena, he mocks how I'll pop out of nowhere and smack the button and "steal a kill". He even has a youtube video where out of no where I come up and ninja his kill...gave me a good laugh when I saw it :3

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tw_3ZSXYa5M

Compression and quality are sorta crappy, but between :50-1:12 I pop in and steal it, happened a few days before the account got hacked and banned for a solid year, before Blizzard gave it back, right after the Olympic theme and 2008 vintage pet and tabard (and Holiday, and 4th anniversary) :(

Comentário de 521698

What about Rogue talent "Cheat Death"? Will priest still receive backfire damage?

Comentário de estroBiologist

EDIT: Figured out my issue. Talents + Shadowform.

So to answer future questions: It is very unlikely that your Shadow Priest will take the full recoil damage.

Comentário de 318094

For those of you playing a priest after playing a mage, do note that Shadow Word: Death, unlike, say... Fire Blast, can be cast even when your back is turned to your target, which is useful for kiting and expeditious retreats. Just throwing that out there. :)

Comentário de ranky26

On targets over 25% health, it does almost exactly 1/3 of the damage on the tooltip. At or below 25% it will do the tooltip damage.

Comentário de 521208

Well, compared to Execute, it hits hard at below 25%. Plus the 40 yards range... love this spell now.

Comentário de Psyklone

SW:D totally went thru my pally bubble just now :(

Comentário de 770512

Probably a dumb question, but I thought I remembered a guide saying a while ago that using SW:D gave you some mana back. Does it? I havent seen anything on it. I'm guessing no, but idk.

Comentário de 319936

Palavra Sombria: Morte can NOT be cast above 20% health and will NOT damage Sacerdote himself in MoP.

enter Inner Will reduce mana cost of Palavra Sombria: Morte by 15%.

cause Palavra Sombria: Morte:

can be cast at all times
do 25% of normal damage to Sacerdote himself at all times (above 20% health or not)
do 25% of normal damage to target above 20% health (but can NOT provide additional Shadow Orbs)

the self damage of can break control abilities those will (not "may") break immediately by any damage, including:

Mage: Polymorph
Warlock (Succubus (Shivarra)): Seduction (Mesmerize)
Druid: Disorienting Roar
Monk: Paralysis
Rogue: Gouge, Blind, Sap
Hunter: Scatter Shot, Wyvern Sting, Freezing Trap
Paladin: Repentance
Engineering: Frag Belt

for Shadow Sacerdote, enter increase Palavra Sombria: Morte's damage by 25%.

Shadow Orbs is the new resources for Shadow Sacerdote, one can have 3 Shadow Orbs max.
it generate by:

Mind Blast (+1; Divine Insight give Shadow Word: Pain a 5% chance per tick to reset its CD, and make it instant and free)
Palavra Sombria: Morte (+1; only usable on target less than 20% health; CD is reset if target does not die, but this additional cast does NOT grant Shadow Orbs, 6 sec internal CD.)

when and only when Sacerdote have at least 1 Shadow Orbs, these spells can be cast to consume all Shadow Orbs:

Devouring Plague (Damage and healing increased based on the number of Shadow Orbs consumed)
Psychic Horror (Horrify duration increased based on the number of Shadow Orbs consumed, Disarm duration unaffected)

for Holy Sacerdote, enter Chakra: Chastise increase Palavra Sombria: Morte's damage by 50%.

Comentário de 363646

When you have a fully Heirloom priest in my case, casting Shadow Word Death can be really nasty to execute. Mostly i have like one nano second to react before my mob got killed on me and mostly i react too late, which pisses me off. So i only get my Shadow orbs from mind blast.

Comentário de 1063480

This spell is the bane of my exsistance as a shadow priest. It has succeeded in p*ssing me off to the point of posting a forum about it.

This spell needs to be more reactive. It needs to be - if not more - than equally reactive to Touch of Death (monk 20% spell((Basically))), or execute(warrior 20% spell). It isn't just a priest's finishing move, Blizzard. It's a direct link to our dps. Make it so, when glyphed, we do gain a shadow orb. Or make it so we can gain a shadow orb by casting this spell at 30% enemy health or 40%.

Even if you decide not to change it, at LEAST make it more reactive. I'm solo questing in Pandaria, and Shadow Word: Death isn't reactive enough to allow me to cast before my dots eat up the target. That's... some major bs. Come on now. You can do it! I know u can. Fix Shadow Word: Death. You KNOW you wanna. I'm going to find more relevant places to post this. I'm a priest on a mission. Taste my bibliographic fury.

Comentário de Mormolyce

SW:D, or as it's known on forums with autocorrect, Shadow Word Smiley Face.

Comentário de Saispai

Regarding the Legion and Battle for Azeroth version of Shadow Word: Death:
You don't need to deal the killing blow to gain the additional insanity, but you must have damaged the target with Shadow Word: Death less than two seconds before it dies.

Comentário de Olioster

It looks like the new version in Shadowlands can't do more than half of your health in damage to yourself.

Comentário de DashFury

Careful with this inside Torghast when you have two well-stacked Palavrório Apavorantes, two Incensário da Crueldades, and a Cilício de Denathrius picked up on the first flour. Just... just trust me on this.

Comentário de themeii

In Hellfire Citadel when used rotationally I took every now and then 11k hits back (the spell tooltip says damage 1027) and actually killed myself once before I noticed it.

For me it seems the damage back portion is also increased when you fail to kill your target. At least sometimes.
