Any news on the mastery: shadowy recall "fix" that is destroying spriest dps?

Should i understand the cause for a bad dps regardless the shadow priests is "shadowy recall" who doesn`t work?
Maybe someone take a look at this?
Kind regard,
Kiay

Sa inteleg ca de la shadowy recall este dps-ul la shadow priest sub nivelul marii? Se poate face ceva cu asta? Multumesc, kiay

Yeah, from the last "fix"(don't get it wrong, it was *** ovepowered) things got pretty nasty in terms of sustained dps. I stopped playing 2-3 weeks after that fix and just got back again, so i didn't have time to test things very much. I managed to discover something about mind flay damage, but i'm not really sure about it. I'm gonna test things when i get the time, but i ask the other fellow shadow priests out there to try and gather some information about this as well.




Fixed!

Well, the shadow priest is mostly decent in a raid environment, that's how blizzard decided that the spriest should behave. It is constantly getting nerfed. The only thing that could improve its dps is the insanity dot clipping, which has been confirmed since allmost 1 year ago, but no update whatsoever.

Hi, i played shadow priest from WOTLK but i think on this content is most dependent about gear. I wonder is only viable with 2 or 4 set from TOT plus trinket from Lei shen. What you suggest for second trinket? Dark animus, Megaera? You go for haste cap 10128 for extra VT tick?

30% haste for vt tick(with shadowform)
