Final boss fight, he's oom after the first 30 seconds running on fumes the rest of the fight. Cannot kill final boss due to lack of sustainable dps. After he leaves in frustration after 2 wipes, we bring in a mage and 1-shot the final boss without deaths. Efficient indeed. I suppose if ur aim is to kill 1 solo-content mob at a time and then drink between each kill shadow priest is the way to go. But in grinding side by side with a shadow priest, with a 21/XX/5 Spec (5 shadow for spirit tap to start then 21 disc for divine spirit, then the rest in holy till finishing 21/25/5 and respeccing to drop spirit tap at 60) I tend to outsustain them at least 3 to 2 over the long haul while not consuming water at all.

Efficient indeed.


Shadow leveling is efficient, shadow PvE at low levels is not. If you're incapable of seeing the difference between those two then I hope you don't keep your clorox wipes by your toilet paper.

Leveling shadow with 5 points in wand atm. Level 32 and only have to buy water when I'm healing a dungeon. Don't use it while questing at all.

Mindblast ->SW:P->Wand->Mindblast->Wand->Repeat on every mob. After 2nd mind blast, the target is usually dead.
