As an ability enhanced by gear acquired from the Realm of Fire, I don't think getting some extra fire damage out of your Shadowfiend is inappropriate.

Wha.... my brain..... so much hurt....

Your comment makes no sense. How can you complain about "free" dps?

If you are a heally priest, I could understand why you are disappointed in not being able to grab 2/2pc.

As for your Mage comment and in correlation to how many subscribers WoW has.... brool cory sto.

Realize that no MMO exists in a vacuum, and that WoW is still #1 for number of subscribers/players.

If anything, adding a little bit of mage flair to everything would only increase subscriptions, as mages are clearly the best class.

Clearly.

Are you guys kidding me ? the fiend is meant to return our mana , 3% and with the glyph when it dies from damage , its 5% .. shadow spec already does great dps , so whatever dps as fire the fiend could possibly put out is trivial at best . Blizz is setting up the class for a major nerf , otherwise they would be increasing the mana return on the fiend , instead of sugar coating it with a meager dps boost . All the healing classes are suffering , and have been since the release of Cata .. They talk about Crit like doubling it is doing us a favor , lol , they wouldnt have to double anything if they would just return mana regen back to a comfortable level , but you wont see that because they want you to play their way and not your own

@Sinister

Um, speak for yourself. I happen to like healing in Cataclysm. Lower regen forces people to be efficient and smart about their choices. I have no problems with that.

@ Sinister:

OBVIOUSLY you want a return to ICC healing days... where mana did not matter. Where if you were not spamming your biggest heal you were fail. NO THANK YOU. The normalized mana regen of Cata forces SMARTER healing styles, not just brute forcing it. Making you use your entire toolbox, not just your biggest heal. If you want a return to the ICC healing days, go make your own game. Mana management SHOULD matter.

Also Sinister... have you looked at any of the other t12 bonuses? Guess what the bonuses for all the DPS specs is.... MOAR DEEPS!!!! omfg we must nerf dps so that we only need to take tanks and healers into raids!!!!
