Skyshroud Leggings provide an impressive amount of Spell Damage, as well as some raw stats but are highly contested by other casters. Leggings of Torment being available in Phase 1 means Shadow Priests do not need to contest with (most) other casters for high Spell Power legs.

Waist for Shadow Priest DPS in Season of Mastery Phase 1īan'thok Sash provides hit which is invaluable as a Shadow Priest and can potentially last you for a very long time. Virtuous Gloves is another underwhelming piece of Tier 0.5, but they do bring with them an impressive amount of sustain stats. Hands of Power are a great, but highly contested option and are also completely overshadowed by Felcloth Gloves, which is significantly easier to obtain.

Hands for Shadow Priest DPS in Season of Mastery Phase 1 Recommended Bracer Enchant: Superior Versatility You can also look to Shadowy Bracers as an easy to obtain option that also provides some sustain. With Dire Maul comes Sublime Wristguards - A fantastic item that covers both sustain and damage better than almost any pre-raid option in the slot. Wrist for Shadow Priest DPS in Season of Mastery Phase 1įlameweave Cuffs is another very rare item that is unlikely to be farmed, but will last until at least Blackwing Lair. Virtuous Robe is another high sustain, but generally underwhelming Tier 0.5 item. Robe of Winter Night is unparalelled in the slot and will easily last you multiple phases while still being easy to acquire. You can use Spritecaster Cape or Amplifying Cloak as a great filler piece until you can replace it with Archivist Cape or future raid loot.Ĭhest for Shadow Priest DPS in Season of Mastery Phase 1 While Chromatic Mantle of the Dawn is the best enchant for your shoulders, it requires a lot to get, and will provide very little benefit in the long term.īack for Shadow Priest DPS in Season of Mastery Phase 1Īrchivist Cape is fantastic and you will be hard-pressed to find a better option for a few phases, but it is also incredibly rare. Virtuous Mantle offers significantly more sustain than any other option in the slot, but is otherwise underwhelming.īiS Shoulder Enchant: Chromatic Mantle of the Dawn, requires Exalted reputation with Argent Dawn and 25 Argent Dawn Valor Token.

Shoulders for Shadow Priest DPS in Season of Mastery Phase 1įor shoulders Felcloth Shoulders will be your best choice, while also being very easy to obtain. High Councillor's Circlet of Shadow Wrath Recommended Helm Enchant: Arcanum of Focus If you happen to do the quests required, it can be a suitable sustain option, but nothing I would actively seek out. Virtuous Crown has a massive amount of sustain stats, but very little in the way of damage for a Shadow Priest. Dreamweave Circlet can serve as an easy to acquire jumping off point without breaking the bank but is worse than the Dungeon drop options. Crimson Felt Hat is a decent alternative, providing a lot of sustain, but is significantly worse than Spellweaver's Turban. With Spellweaver's Turban available in Phase 1 you will be unlikely to find a replacement head item for a long time. Head for Shadow Priest DPS in Season of Mastery Phase 1 This set also manages to come impressively close to being Hit capped for Raid Bosses.īody Armor for Shadow Priest DPS in Season of Mastery Phase 1 What was previously the Phase 5 Loot Overhaul will be implemented immediately, as well as Dire Maul giving access to a lot of fantastic gear for Shadow Priestsīelow is an example set of gear that attempts to balance sustain and damage without making any drastic sacrifices. Luckily, Season of Mastery will be shuffling a lot of the Phase rewards. This means gearing for more regen and less flat Spell Damage, as well as downranking efficiently. Without world buffs and with increased boss health, mana sustain will be a real issue that needs to be actively mitigated and considered. In Season of Mastery you will be unable to play Shadow Priest the same way you did in Classic.
