Key Abilities
Important Casts
Shadowmeld is an incredibly versatile racial ability. It can immune incoming projectiles like Mortal Coil and Chaos Bolt, as well as instant abilities like Blind and Kidney Shot. Using Shadowmeld also removes you as the target, preventing enemies from attacking or stopping your casts immediately.
Arcane Torrent is an offensive AoE dispel on a 2-minute cooldown that also grants 15 Fury. While not as versatile as Shadowmeld, the on-demand Fury can make a difference in tight situations where you need that extra resource for a kill.
Versatility is your most important stat for PvP. It provides both increased damage and reduced damage taken, making it essential for survivability and burst. Mastery: Demonic Presence increases your Chaos damage, which is the overwhelming majority of your throughput. Haste reduces your GCD and increases Fury generation, allowing for more frequent ability usage during your burst windows. Critical Strike increases your burst potential and synergizes well with your damage abilities.
