- Shadow Priests draw deep from the shadows to slake their thirst for power. They're never thirsty for long.

Shadowform is a Priest buff that can be acquired from the Shadow Magic talent tree. While active, it increases Shadow damage dealt by 15% and reduces physical damage taken by 15%.
- Shadowform does not lock the Holy school, but only the Holy tree. That is the reason why Holy spells from the Discipline tree, such as Power Word: Shield, can still be cast without removing Shadowform.
- The character looks translucent black while in Shadowform. While mounted, your mount also gains this appearance.
- Unlike Darkness, Shadowform does affect Shadow spells from the Discipline tree (e.g. Mana Burn) and shadow-elemental wands.
- Normally a Priest who uses this spell is considered a Shadow Priest.
[edit] Talent improvement
Mental Agility reduces the mana cost of all instant-cast Priest spells, including Shadowform.
[edit] Tips and tactics
[edit] Known bugs
- Look-altering actions that take place while shadowformed (such as being poisoned or diseased) will alter the look until Shadowform is dropped and reassumed.
[edit] Past changes
- As of patch 2.1.0, Shadowform now has its own action-bar, like a Rogue's stealth, Druids' various shapeshifting forms, and Warrior stances.
