Thanks for the reputation, also the Shadow Priest minimum Spell damage has been set to 1000!

What the hell, 1k spelldmg minimum for priest? That should be 600!

Other stuff seems right though, good job

Haha, well HolyGraal said it should be a minimum of 800... so I'll bump it back down to 650. It was 600 before.

Srsly locks should have at least 800 spell dmg as they get 100 from fel armor and as the other guy said, more from pvp gear + badge stuff. You cant really go to kara as a green lock (no im not talking about green skinned orcs).

[Pietje]

Should add that dps need a minus of 500~ dps to actually get anywhere. Gear <> skill

[Forever]

These should be minimum requirements. I did kara with like 580spelldmg as a shadowpriest and didn't get carried by the raid or something. Everyone had blue/pvp gear but everyone had experience with other chars there though

[Krip]

There is many arguments on a shadow priests spell damage I see... as long is your whole group is above these requirements you'll be fine. It really matters how everything balances out with all ten raiders.

[Forever]

Yeah but you increased the minimum after that guy said he had 1k+ spelldmg before he started kara. The amount you have before you start kara is almost never the minimum requirement, especially if you have Shadowweave(T5 equivalent) set.

Alright, remember this is a guide... so if you think the minnimum is less then thats fine. It's always good to have more than to have less. I set it back to 700 though... no more changes on the Shadow Priests spell dmg will be made!

[XenoZiden]

Pretty accurate actually. I think that the Resto Shammy +healing is only 1k, but Very nice non the less.

Were do you get info like this?

11k HP for Protection Warrior seems quite low... should be 12.5k in my opinion to start.
