Yeah Rapture is a tool I need to get better at using. I'm not really sure when a good time to use it is, though. Ursoc enrage perhaps?

I'm unsure if this would work, but you could try this macro /cast Penance /cast Smite and replace your normal smite cast with it. This assumes you'll always want to use Penance of course, but that seems to be what you're trying to do anyway.

Hello. So far, this expansion has been a lot of fun =) I'm making an attempt to do this expansion on Disc again, even though it's so different than the shield generator builds I've loved in the past (RIP spirit shell.) I'm not quite happy with my performance however. I provide roughly 2/3 of the healing my allies put out, and 1/3 the damage that my DPS allies put out. That's enough to make me squarely average, and I want to do better. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/pZVdNB6jha7Kz4D8 https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/N3MwyCrmQZqD4KFR I'm Zetajezu in these logs.

Sorry, no idea what I was thinking when I wrote that. CoP is generally best for questing, is what I should have said.. You should be flipping between CoP and AS depending on which boss you're fighting.

I'll give you surge of darkness for mobility, though I'd hardly call hanz and franz movement intensive =/ Shuffling back and forth half a foot whenever a poptart or a press comes down. AS has to be a massive dps loss. most of the time you only have one target. Even if you had two, I think AS is still a dps loss. CoP gives you a lot of mobility by making MB instant cast and on a short cooldown. If you have to move again, you can shield yourself, Halo, or just accept that you'll lose half a global =)

Darmak's Unstable Talisman -_- I'm so sorry. Obviously, get rid of that PoS as soon as you can (but re-equip it when you're using Auspicious Spirits.) You should be using 2 potions a fight: 1 on prepull, and the second during lust or execution. Just looking at Kologarn Kromog I see you understand your dotweave well. Looking at the rankings, you didn't do badly (at least on the fights you survived). You seemed to generally know what you're doing so I'm surprised you didn't do better. Looking at hanz+franz. Why are you casting mind spike / pain / vt during execution? Execut

Do not use void entrophy. It's too weak in comparison to the other two, and is 100% useless while leveling. While leveling, I strongly recommend clarity of power. CoP is advantageous against raid bosses where there is 1-2 targets, and provides superior manuverability. Auspicious Spirits (AS) is better when there are more targets who will live long enough for SW:Pain to expire. But definatlely CoP while leveling. How many mobs do you fight while leveling that don't die in under a minute? Even while dungeoning, most dungeon boss encounters have a single target, so VEnt is going to

You should be going AS for some fights and CoP for others. Go crit when you can. You'll want to ditch spirit gear, so good luck on your rolls. Haste enchants aren't bad, but the haste weapon enchant is definitely bad. Haste is a good stat for spriests in general but haste procs are of almost zero use for CoP shadow priests, due to the nature of their rotation. If you can switch to crit weapon enchant you'd be better off when shadowing.

Thanks for the in depth! You're right, I should be casting Halo more. I never really thought about that, but I'll make it a point to do that this weekend. I love Auspicious Spirits =) I'll give it a shot on flamebender . I'm surprised the dogs stay alive long enough to, apparently, make ti worth while.

Hello everyone, https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/jdJP81AqtTmcyxQN#view=rankings&fight=30 For grull and flamebender, I'm dissatisfied with my rankings. I average 80th percentile, but for these fights I'm only in 50th. I suspect my single target dps is weak. If anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears =) http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/maelstrom/Brutalpriest/advanced

Indeed next time just mail it instead of necroing it lol.

First things first, macro your trinket to Mind Blast, so you use the trinket first, then mind blast second. Just looking at Gruul, Heroic, Kill When starting your dotweave, make it Pain, MB(5th orb), VT. In this way, both dots will end at the same time and you won't have to Mind Spike weakened when you restart your spiking. For some reason you're dotweaving during execution...????????? Just use PW:Death, MB, DP, Insanity.

Hey all. It's me again, talking about Auspicious Spirits again. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/m97LpgvwKxjDrC14#type=summary&source=11 (we did kill Gruul, but our recorder was offline that attempt) I was able to make good use of AS in my fight against H.Beastmaster tonight. Auspicious Spirits + Shadowy Insight + (mindbender) + Glyph of Mind Harvest. MB doesn't really matter, I just needed something that wasn't Insanity. But the rest came together to net me an absurd amount of shadow orbs, 287 over 8:39 (0.553 shadow orbs per second) and ending the fight at 34,579 dps.

I cannot find any fights you participated in from the link you posted.
