Talents after 40

Post by Machar

After getting to 41, I put my last talent point into Shadow Weaving to top it off. My build now looks like this: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=bZZxMxdMxoht

Where should I put my next 9 points on my way to VT? And where should I go after that? Currently, my plan is to be a shadow raider with http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=bxMh0hZZxGxdMxRhtEo

As I see it you have a few choices depending on how you will be leveling.

If your going to be running more 5mans in shadow then go:
3/3 Shadow Affinity (25% Threat reduction)
5/5 Misery (5% Additional Spell Damage for entire party)

If you will be mainly grinding/questing then you can forgo Shadow Affinity for a while and grab.
5/5 Shadow Power (15% Mind Blast Crit)
3/5 Misery (3% Additional Spell Damage)

This will get you to level 50 and the talent Vampiric Touch. The #1 reason Shadow Priests get group invites!

On a side note. Your raid spec looks pretty straight forward. Only difference I would make would be to take 1 point from Shadow Power and put it into Inner Focus. A free Mind Blast every 3 minutes. With VT up a 1800 MB will return 90 mana! a 2700 crit... 135 free mana! I also find it helpful when self buffing. Using Inner Focus to cast Fortitude is sweet. But this is a discussion for another thread.
