We at Method hope you've been enjoying this spree of content for you all to watch, if you have make sure to leave a LIKE! See you next video :)

[@Kaspare]

If they did, its not in the hotfix notes. Havent checked ingame though.

[@WhiteMoon87]

A mage and warlock video would really be nice to see also :) , but all other legion/class videos are nice.

[@TheUnone]

I didn't, where is PVP :

[@silencia08]

+Method what addon do u use to keep track of ur dots when you multi-dot?

[@Mageikman]

What is the ad on you have for the the mobs that's on the left side of screen

[@Ves189]

Clear cut, clear predictions. Not so much uncertain rambling about possiblities here and there. Loving it, more!

[@MyntenEU]

I really love this videos, I hope we'll see more tips and guides before Emerald Nightmare hits!

[@Methodgg]

You can count on it! Thanks for supporting the channel :)

[@FriendsWBenefitsEU]

amazing guide suraran!

[@SirSurarn]

Thanks Paulihinia

[@2Alexmae5]

This is great to watch as a main shadow priest, really like the new play style. Cheers for the video ^^

[@DavidBMolbek]

Would really love a look at Fire Mages from you guys.

[@godlike69r]

Same here :)

[@wesell]

What addon is showing all enemies healthbars in mid left of the screen? Looks super useful for applying dots!

[@SirSurarn]

Enemy Grid, yepp i fell in love with that it as soon as i saw it!

[@wesell]

Thanks for responding and thanks for the video Surarn!

[@АлександрЯхин-с9ы]

What addon u use for dots? Ty

[@GunGreyv]

mods.curse.com/addons/wow/enemy-grid

[@furrshop6275]

I really REALLY love this kind of video, so usefull, thanks for making Shadow Priest, my favorite class/spec.

[@SirSurarn]

Thanks, it was actually really fun to make. True, Shadow Priest is my favorite as well and every time i reroll i always find myself back there sooner or later.

[@kaloyanpeev2440]

Cant wait to see what the next class guide will be

[@Sigulx]

Thanks for the video. I was struggling on deciding which class to roll. Shaman or priest. But you convinced me. Time to dive into insanity.

[@danquan]

Could you list your addons? I'm especially interested in the one tracking your dotted targets, what a relief to have that one!

[@SirSurarn]

Enemy Grid

[@dakotalovespie]

it's called enemy grid

[@danquan]

Thanks!

[@jonathanarpin9298]

thanks !! I was looking for this addon too

[@Grumdy]

Hey, great video! Great audio! I look forward to the warlock video, given they're so highly praised here.

[@l.b.3642]

Great insight, really love the video.

[@mannelqt]

would love a 'best spec for warlock' vid *.* wondering which spec is going to be the most rounded spec for raids and mythic+

[@samuelparragonzalez1100]

Hello! Thank you for all your amazing videos! Could you tell us what is the mob tracking addon you're using at min 1:42?

[@drildgen]

+Method, like silencia08, I would really like to know what addon do you use to keep track of your DoT's and use to cycle DoT'ed targets @2:50ish?

[@drildgen]

Found it on your Surarn's twitch: mods.curse.com/addons/wow/enemy-grid Thank you! :)

[@Franch3ttz]

any particular reason that you're switching to demo? and will there be a warlock legion guide??

[@SirSurarn]

Every guild needs at least one, dont know if im gonna make a Warlock guide yet.

[@Thundercloud1969]

Thank you for this vid, clears up a lot for me !

[@Frokx77]

This is really interesting ! Thank you very much

[@Necrostrike]

Shadow priest looks so fun, can't wait for the warlock video tho. Demonology warlock feels so odd to play since I'm used to destruction.

[@mackopofa]

I noticed that at the end of the raid clip, you have a disc priest healing at 2nd place. As i remember you guys placed disc priest at the bottom of the list. Did something change over the time?

[@SirSurarn]

Hard to say, since they kinda count as ½ healer and ½ dps you might wanna bring 3½ healers to a fight or 4½ for example. Hfc is really easy nowdays so you can pretty much bring anything.

[@Ves189]

I have a question: Which addon/WA do you use to display all the enemy mobs with the option to click on them at 3:30? Thanks and cheers!

[@SirSurarn]

Enemy Grid

[@Karecareqt]

Hi yaa, thanks for this video. Can you tell me what are your codes to your weakauras for your Mindblast/Voidbolt/VoidTorrent - I've tried using other peoples but they get so clunky to the point where I literally just go back to staring at my spells. I feel like yours are much better :P Also if you can, is there any specific way you set up your enemy grid?

[@KennyD123456789]

whats the addon that shows all the targets you have dotted?

[@KennyD123456789]

jk i just had to read the other comments xD

[@oddlyfrost]

so should we be clipping mind flay over itself? I'm new to priest and I was hearing stuff about mind flay clipping. like e.g. after the 2nd tick re-use mind flay? or should we only clip it after the next tick once a higher priority spell is up? and if so is there an addon I can use to differentiate mind flay dicks? I can't really pick out when it does damage. EDIT: looks like in the video he's clipping after 2 ticks outside of VF and then clipping once a higher priority spell is off cd in VF.

[@Aevalii]

I love this channel's videos, they're so informative! A quick question, if you don't mind. Do you have any advice for maintaining Void Form? It's obviously a huge part of the class, but even with Surrender to Madness active I'm finding it impossible to hit the "100 stacks club". At what point do you disperse? How about void torrent or mindbender? I've been practicing on target dummies (which to be fair, you can't shadow word death them), but with Surrender to Madness I'm only getting to about 65-70 on the prepatch. I know it gets better at 110 but I've seen priests go higher than I have. Is there any advice you can give me on this? Thank you again for the awesome video. I'm creating a raiding guild and am going to be raid leading during Legion for the first time in my 11 years of playing the game. I decided to reroll to shadow priest for Legion just because I really like the changes, it's so good to hear that they're going to be so good in raids. :)

[@SirSurarn]

Well, you want to get as much Haste and Crit as possible, getting points in Unleash the Shadows(artifact) also helps alot. Your insanity degen increases every second but is reduced during the duration of Dispersion and Void Torrent so if you wanna get as many stacks as possible you can insta pop dispersion and then follow it with Void Torrent so you get reduced drain. When reaching more stacks the "rotation" is sometthing like VB>MB>VB>MF>and then from from beginning. Kinda hard to explain :P

[@ghost999uk]

amazing guides, any idea when we will see the warlock guides? 1st time I'm going for mythic raiding and want the opinion of the number 1 guild :)

[@noctoi]

ROFL I'm actually loving this xpac, but it really feels like they took every ounce of cool from the Demo lock, made it 100% better, and then divied it up between a bunch of the other classes. The shadow priest plays SO much like my demo lock used to I'm changing INTO shadow now to get that style of gameplay!

[@Davidakadk]

what is this addon with you makes it the dots ?

[@unlogik1]

enemy grid

[@frevalvictor8309]

+1 I need it

[@Davidakadk]

thx

[@GunGreyv]

mods.curse.com/addons/wow/enemy-grid

[@reallysorrymate]

subbed! nice video man, just one short question: while I know what enemy grid does, I would like to have the DoT timer addon which shows you how long VT and SW:P will remain on the target. can you tell me the name? thanks in advance, have fun in legion!

[@SirSurarn]

The ones above my Target Frame? If yes thats Weakauras

[@wcjokertwo]

Hey mate, Any chance you can tell me what addon you use to track your dots on multiple targets, or perhaps the WA string you use for it if that is the case. Cheers.

[@SirSurarn]

Enemy Grid

[@moneyafro]

Awesome video! Glad to see shadow priests are going to get to shine this xpac. What do you guys think is the best "path" to take on the artifact weapon for shadow priest? in terms of what to put points in first, last, ect.

[@Deeshlomo123]

Hey Surarn, what is the addon that shows the health bars of all your targets with the cast bars / DoT timers?

[@SirSurarn]

I think you mean Enemy Grid?

[@YoZasuke]

Hey Surarn will you make a warlock guide? I'm really struggeling with the class right now and could use a bit of help :D

[@ragnarragnarson8068]

Hey, for mythics /raids can you see all mage specs being viable? Or will it be fire mage being the main spec everyone picks due to massive difference in dps

[@chriswittstruck282]

great vid! thanks for sharing!

[@mikerotch2195]

hey, nice vid and yeah Im also playing an spriest and I really do enjoy it but Im thinking of rerolling for mythic+ and Im thinking of going with an ele sham. whats your oppinion on ele shams?

[@SirSurarn]

Dont know that much about Ele shaman but i dont think they will be that much better in mythic+. Dont take my word for it though.

[@Corruptedd]

they're in bad shape!!!

[@CeeSharper]

top vid. What are your thoughts about the Ret pala?

[@Varriante2a]

Hi, what is the addon that shows all the ennemies with the bars (easiest to dot ennemies) please ? Thanks in advance.

[@MrYz85man]

what would be the stat priority for shadow priest im glad you said that its not really a dungeon class i was on the tilt side because of the dps but im wonder what the stat priority would be

[@Voojitsu]

Can't wait for a hunter video! :)

[@VICTHECOMMENTER]

I would love if you could cover warlocks, it would be amazing and super helpful!

[@xAntoIRL]

Whats the addon so you can click the mobs from the bar Please tell me

[@ahmadsoliman9919]

been waiting for this ^.^

[@Methodgg]

We hope you enjoy it! :)

[@Kelzorr]

pls, leave your addon list somewhere in video description going forward

[@mrcarpizo]

Any insight on why you've chosen destro warlock? I am in between lock and priest atm and would like to know why. Thanks in advance :)

[@SirSurarn]

Every guild need at least one

[@jimpax15]

Hey Method! Great videos, keep them coming! I would like one for Destruction Warlock!

[@bulbelgium]

Hey method thanks for this video can you tell me what the addon is where you can see all the mobs around you and the dots on them? thanks

[@SirSurarn]

Enemy Grid

[@koko-cc1qk]

Thanks for the amazing videowhat do u think of going full crit gear?is it better for single targetThank u

[@SirSurarn]

Just get Crit and Haste on every piece if possible

[@invy2017]

Great video! You've earned my sub. What video editing software do you you, if you don't mind me asking?

[@PlebCentral]

The core of assembly, cutting and general editing is done through Adobe Premiere. Animations are done in After Effects and imported into Premiere :)

[@invy2017]

Awesome, I consistently enjoy your content. Keep it up!

[@SuperMilkytea]

Can he do a warlock video for us?

[@AugustoHaubrich]

Holy fuc*, you guys are gods! Very well explicative video!

[@Insipidityy]

Could you do videos on Mage and Warlocks too please? :) Love the quality and content on these videos, thank you!

[@jthomsen]

Helio, addon name for the group unitframe? Healbot, grid?

[@jeppegronemann2084]

what is the addon / weak aura showing the comming up spell, just in the start of the video?

[@SirSurarn]

Think you need to explain more :P

[@dieuwtjin]

Surarn, do you believe shadowpriests will be viable for mythic+? it seems to me that with the timed dungeons and shadow's extremely poor aoe, any group would be insane to take one. But I really want to be wrong on this :(

[@SirSurarn]

Yea, i dont really think they are that good in mythic dungeons :/

[@ivanbssouza]

Can you give more details about the reroll ? what a destro warlock brings to the party ? summons ? (lol)

[@SirSurarn]

Gateway. Starting to like Warlocks now and dont find them to be that bad. Affliction ST is probably the worst ive ever seen though.

[@stupidangel318]

I'm really interested in what UI addons you are using besides WA2

[@SirSurarn]

pastebin.com/wPjqndGG

[@Optic.97]

Which addons are you using man?

[@MfingChristonya]

Gotta ask, why mindbender over power infusion for raid dps.

[@ilyabarkaya3886]

Can you guys please have your fury warrior post a fury warrior review for legion? Would be much appreciated

[@robertoalmanza7834]

Since you're switching to Destruction will you be doing a video on it?

[@SirSurarn]

I have been thinking about it but i dont think so, after playing abit in Legion i might do one though.

[@robertoalmanza7834]

+Surarn Ahh okay, well I'll be looking out for it if you decide to make one. I'm going to wait a while before I return to WoW though so hopefully by then you would of done a video.

[@lordmemerking306]

There are some missing WeakAuras from the legion footage in this and from your pastebin, Mindblast and Voidbolt tracker, Lingering Insanity Stacks, Dispersion, SAs

[@SirSurarn]

Weakauras from beta (the ones in the leftmiddle of the screen with blizz ui) isnt in there. on retail i only have 2 actionbars in the middle of the screen.

[@martinmarru]

Nice guide, Will you make destro guide as well since you reroll on it? And you really think destro will be able to top dps in raids? Warlocks doesnt look good atm.

[@SirSurarn]

Hi, not sure if i make another guide tbh. Since they nerfed RB i dont think Destro will be able to top anymore.

[@martinmarru]

thanks for swift answer. You will go destro anyway? Do you have guys something like your personal dps rankings for game how is it now? How do you make your progress raid group?

[@buurz]

Which dps classes and specs are best then for maybe mythic+ dungeons?

[@JohnRodolph]

for pve (dps and funplay) better shadow priest or lock demo?

[@gamingextreme87]

Please do one for hunter and mage :D

[@Mageikman]

does anyone know what the add on is that shows the bars to his left of the mobs

[@Dasvovobrot]

Wow it sounds like priest is realy fun i Legion, will definetly level one!

[@HarunKilic94]

I am a shadow too. Is it right that crit is ober haste and mastery? And how much of each should i focus on. I habe 18% crit 12%haste and ~60% mastery

[@SirSurarn]

Mastery and Versa is bad since they dont give you Insanity, get as much Crit and Haste as you want

[@fahadalhazzaa3720]

Whats the addon for the targets?

[@kikoredog]

when legion goes live, will we actually have 2 million hp or will it scale down to like 200k?

[@Zermanja]

what is a name of the addon? WHere you target ? sry my english is not good

[@robban]

Please do Fire mage! Love this videos!

[@kornrocktwistedfreak]

Do you have a list of the addons you're using? Cheers and thanks.

[@SirSurarn]

Elvui, Weakauras, Bigwigs, Details, ExtraCD, Plater Nameplates, TrufiGCD and Enemy Grid are the big ones i guess

[@kornrocktwistedfreak]

+Surarn thanks bud

[@lorenzfink4712]

So are you saying the Stat prio will be Krit-haste-mastery-versatility?

[@SirSurarn]

Haste > Crit >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Leech (kidding) > Mastery > Versa

[@kaelrex09]

I have a question. What addons did you use?

[@SirSurarn]

Addons are Elvui, Shadow & Light (Elvui), AddOnSkins (Elvui), Details, Bigwigs, ExtraCD, xCT+, Plater Nameplates, Enemy Grid and TrufiGCD

[@nicolaifrhling9275]

Where will you rank Boomkins in compared to those? :i

[@saharshok]

what is this addon thet show cd moveing down at the screen? i want to use it also

[@SirSurarn]

Dont really know what addon you're talking about, can you elaborate more?

[@Deqell]

What do you say in the end there? "just do dungeons so you can really shine in raids"?

[@SirSurarn]

haha, "Just endure dungeons so you can really shine in raids"

[@trancer03]

how do you feel about them now? if blizzard really nerfs the artifact weapon so much (200 to 100%)

[@pako_powr]

I dont get why Surrender to madnes is the go-to talent for raids ? When you use you die eventually , so if you fight a boss you have 0 room for errors once you pop void form ? or is there some way around the dying part of the talent ?

[@orzhovsewers5877]

no you use Surrender to madness ONLY IN EXECUTE phase, so you can stay all the phase in voidform, this is why SP is so good in execute.

[@TheAssirra]

That is the thing. You gain insane power but at a super high cost of mistiming it and dying before the boss. One of the things which make the talent and the spec so insanely fun.

[@deadeye0o]

At one point, id say 50 stacks, you are only casting death, mind blast and void bolt with a certain prio one mistake yadun

[@creepiona5460]

what is that addon in that middle sequence that shows all near targets as target frames? i need that o.O

[@deadeye0o]

The question is like 50% of the comment...even links to it ffs.... its enemygrid

[@creepiona5460]

haha... well i was jsut too excited to finally have something like that ^.^ thx anyway :D

[@TheOdMan]

Yeah I've been looking for an add on like Enemy Grid since vanilla, and I just found it a few days ago >.< It's still a pretty new add-on I think, so it has some issues. Like for me, I ONLY want to use it to track DoT's but I can't seem to find an option to turn off certain raid indicators etc on the Enemy Grid frames. It might just be me though.

[@creepiona5460]

+TheOdMan you need to use custom filters and add your dots only.

[@TheOdMan]

Yeah I've done that, but it didn't work, or at least I thought so, but I think it may have reverted to automatic tracking because when I logged in today I was on a different profile than the one I had created, so I switched back and now it works, hopefully it will continue to work :) Thanks for the reply though.

[@ZxChrono]

So the nerf means we can't keep StM up on single target fights? For example on fights like Ursoc. My main is Enhance and have my Spriest as my ranged alt so this sounds rather disappointing.

[@SirSurarn]

Dont worry, having it at 200% would make Shadow to good, right now we are REALLY good but not to op. Fits perfect

[@Thigibson]

Can someone tell me which addon is he using that shows all mobs life and dots on, on top mid of screen?

[@SirSurarn]

Enemy Grid

[@kchanguito]

What's that multitarget frames in arrow , what adding is it ?

[@SirSurarn]

Enemy Grid?

[@squidrides6339]

Do you think Shadow Priests will get much love by Blizz in Legion? Debating to main as Destruction Warlock or ShadowPriest. I love playing both of them.

[@SirSurarn]

I think Shadow Priest will be Amazing/fun through the whole Expansion.

[@anthonyleal8887]

i need to know how u have that enemy grid, i need ur entire UI please :)

[@SirSurarn]

Everything ui related can be found at pastebin.com/wPjqndGG

[@garnettrpg]

What about power infusion instead of mindbender ? I find it very strong why its not an option ?

[@SirSurarn]

Both are really good, kinda hard to say exactly whats the best. PI for trash/multi and Bender for bosses/ST. Mindbender all the time if you have T18 2/4 - set.

[@garnettrpg]

Yeah of course i speak about legion ^^ it seem like bender is not boosted in legion by any Tier or Artefact weapon. so i though bender was going to be trash :s

[@adrian78031]

Are you from norway mate?

[@bubba2474]

So you are gonna play destro lock in legion?

[@texn0lyze]

Make a lock vid for us :) I cant decide if i should play S Priest or one of the Lock specs :)

[@Kenyapalacios]

como es que puede seleccionar los bosses en el enemy grid yo no puedo directo de las barras

[@potato61192]

Just saw this Video. I would like to ask. How is Shadow Priest in World PVE Content like bursting down Elites in the World?

[@vinsaiyajin]

returning player here , can somebody tell me what addon he use when there are few mobs so he can easly target them?

[@NoveltY222]

[@LifeForMac]

[@Iddy267]

Why dont you use power infusion ?

[@Sammysapphira]

Why destro for raiding?
