  • The Absolution Regalia (2) Set increases the duration of your Shadow Word: Pain ability by 3 sec. (1 "tick")

Tips and tactics

  • If you are an Undead Priest, you can deal an immense amount of damage with just Shadow Word: Pain and Devouring Plague. If you also happen to be Shadow spec, you can add Vampiric Touch to the mix for even more damage. This is also true for Night Elf priests, just replace Devouring Plague with Starshards.
