Re: Shadow priest agony
I know the feeling. Been there at times with various classes and encounters. Still feel that way at times. Don't get discouraged.
Some great tips above.
Bottom line for me is this. (1) Know your opponent and (2) practice. You've got to get to a point where you know what your opponents strategies will be, can predict when they will use them, and can counter or defeat as a reflex.
If you can, do some duels and talk with a local priest in your faction. When I used to run in a pvp guild (BGs only, way before arenas), we would always practice against each other. Still trying to find that now on my current server.
Priest ability is called Psychic Scream, it's an AoE with 8yrd range. Can use racial or trinket to break. If you see a priest running at you, that is why. And they can pop it every 30 seconds. Someone else has already mentioned fear ward. Since it is tough to see if this is on, I think the advice to double fear above is great.
One thought for discussion … I've never used felguard, but wouldn't felhunter be better? Reason I say that is Shadow Word Pain used to be a hard hitter. If felhunter eats that up, you'll be better off. Plus you can spell lock. Do you have points in Master Summoner?
