[@NovembersDooom]

I love your videos. Thank God us spriest players have someone like you to be our voice.

[@Publikwow]

Thank you! 😊

Fucking delete Mind Spike, Makes the spec so much more clunky than it needs to be, and mind flay is cool and unique to SPriest. Whereas Spike feels no different than me casting Wrath on a boomie, or Lightning Bolt on a Shaman or.....you get the picture.

[@NatinDC]

I much prefer playing with Mind Spike, but I wish it was a perfectly optional choice to simply chose between the two, rather than a meta depending situation.

BLIZZARD: "Ok so obviously the biggest issue here is the Archon hero talent DESCRIPTION. We'll change it to be more Halo-centric in the next beta build."

[@Krangbot]

I assumed Archon would let you go into some sort of enhanced Shadow Form and and enhanced Holy form temporarily which would have been cool to be able to swap forms depending on what the team needs or what boss it is.

[@user-ig1wc2zc1f]

that would have been sick

[@Leergut999]

Thanks for your effort! Voidweaver video is coming today as well? I know its already available for member

[@Publikwow]

Will be fully released tomorrow!

[@hampusandersson5055]

Great vid, hope you making one for voidweaver aswell! Also how would you place shadow on a tierlist right now?

[@Publikwow]

Recorded and currently available for channel members! Full release to everyone is tomorrow. Tuning is definitely not even close to done yet, but from an overall playstyle perspective I would give the entire spec + hero talents a B

[@Deeteear]

I was somewhat hoping for a cool visual like the Starcraft 2 archons. Maybe golden for holy and purple for shadow.

[@ZeroSleep]

I'm going to play Voidform, and if I have to play DA to be competitive, I'm either going to play another class instead (mage looks to be cooking) or (more likely) not at all. Voidpriest is my class fantasy since Legion.

[@ivaely]

@publik did you test Archon with Dark Ascension build, mind spike will get extra 25% dmg from it

[@Publikwow]

Yes I did and so far testing is resoundingly favoring Mind Flay with Archon builds

[@MrMrbambus]

publik uploads, i watch

[@Snow-io5sb]

I dont know why they didnt just give archon a special animation for power infusion lol. Like if were getting beefier PI then make it LOOK beefier. Or add a special effect to us during the halo pulse casts

[@unbanshee2985]

Maybe something like Manifest power now makes surge of insantity / surge of light increase halos damage / healing instead of mind spike / flash heal for arcons? would need to rethink the right side of the tree with that though since you would need to replace the two talents below Manifest power.

[@jenaaidy]

definitely wish we turned into archons/dark archons from starcraft with this hero spec

[@windygraves]

They desperately need to update Dark Ascension. It has a cast time even though it functions much like Rogue's instant Symbols of Death and the animation is just a vibrating png of black wings and an early 2000s purple glow effect.

[@thechartech]

Halo is nice and all but yeah super weird that its built around that and not our CDs with the flavor text it has. It could be built around apotheosis for holy priest so theres something analogous for them

[@kaitlynschoudt7779]

Honestly, Archon looks pretty good as far as the hero talent trees and what we have as options for other classes. I still won't ever forgive the devs for not at least trying to make Dark Ascension and Spirit of Redemption cooler. So much wasted potential with the tree! Overall this is so much better than it could be. Won't count it as a win, but still excited to play it as Holy for next expac and Voidweaver for Shadow.

[@Publikwow]

Yeah I generally agree, im not mad about the tree but I am a bit disappointed in the potential.

[@petr9516]

integrate halo into dark ascension without forcing us to pick the talent

[@Sott96]

archon is a huge whiff, having to play it over voidweaver for any reason would be incredibly sad for spriests

[@Publikwow]

Yeah i think its okay at best, but i think most of that is the base spec still is fun but definitely one of the more dull hero talents.

[@ruairidhkoch7875]

Also, mr P. Where are all the CORE shadow priest talent changes cuz core SP talents have BARELY changed😢😮😮😮😮

[@Publikwow]

Yeah I dont think we can expect much, maybe in 11.1

[@scaryeri6798]

wow your overtuned uncapped ranged meta class isn't getting any talent changes boo hooooooooo

[@DrMudPhD]

its amazing how you're a doomer about every shadow iteration, even when its top tier.

[@Publikwow]

Sorry if I came across that way, included the positives for a reason. I think Archon is fine but could be much better with some changes. Voidweaver I find really fun!

[@kaisersoze1985]

You should stay away from a dps spec when the video starts with " the good thing of the spec is healing"

[@Publikwow]

LOLOL

[@ruairidhkoch7875]

Mr P. Can you update the game? Remove the BORING current shadow form and give cataclysm shadow form because at this point shadow form is just so boring of a effect compared to CATA😮

You can't even see the cool armor you're wearing Needs an update
