Embellishments
Below is the recommended priority for Crafted Gear on Shadow Priest:
- Martyr's Bindings with Arcanoweave Lining
- Martyr's Waistwrap with Arcanoweave Lining
- Adherent's Silken Shroud with Arcanoweave Lining if you didn't craft one of the previous pieces.
- Hunter's Ritual Stone can be crafted on an off-hand as an optional early craft, but this not a long-term recommendation.
After following the above, you should craft any item that you do not have on Myth-Track.
Nebulous Voidcore (Bonus Rolls)
Introduced in Patch 12.0.5, players can now acquire and use Nebulous Voidcore to easily obtain specific equipment from specific bosses via Bonus Loot Rolls.
Your voidcores should prioritise gaps in your current gear, keeping in mind what you have already obtained from the Vault and your raid progression. Spending voidcores on items you can access through higher difficulty content in the coming weeks is generally efficient.
Here is what you should focus on:
- Ula’tek for Cantrip items
- Myth-track weapons (1H or 2H)
- Mythic-track trinkets (especially Gebbo's Bottomless Bag)
- Missing tier pieces needed for 2p/4p bonuses
- Remaining High-impact BiS slots
