Very much needed for warlocks too bad its only accessible at level 64

I dont mind the soulshard requeriment tho, I think the hp costs instead of mana is also inteligent by blizzard that way warlocks wont mind to do it instead of thinking twice if they should use mana or not in it

This effect can be resisted.

1) Remember it is for BASE health, not current health.

2) I have found it to be moderately helpful solo in some mob-dense areas, but VERY helpful in raids when paired with KTM threat meter. Using the threat meter with this ability will also reveal who has resisted and how close you are to taking aggro.

Very useful, but not terribly flashy. Solid spell for raids.

Most awesomest move ever!

Commento di 27710

Anyone know if this ability shares a cooldown with The Hypnotist's Watch?

And if not...might make us locks a little less dependent on MD/imp... thoughts?

Commento di lightsage

does this only work for tht one battle or is it like a buff kinda..

Commento di GokieKS

From my experience, the way this spell works is that it sends an AoE pulse to reduce the threat from all the enemies around you. What this also means is that if you use it around mobs which are in range, but who are not aggroed, this will actually aggro them. I'm not completely sure if priests' Fade is the same mechanic on the server side (the effects listed makes it seem like it's not), so it's interesting that Blizzard made it work like a totem pulse.

I don't understand 100%, how long does this effect last for? Do you cast it before you aggro'd or after? :) Thanks

Commento di 27710

Be carefull....if the tank/other dps don't have a threatmeter, and you cast this after pulling aggro to dump it...

In SL I used this after I pulled aggro. Im slow reaction wise so the tank had already taunted by the time i got to the button (Im an afflictlock and had alll my dots on teh boss at the time, was worred i'd be on aggro again after a few ticks), the cost of casting the spell killed me.

Unlike Life Tap, It appears that this spell doesn't check to make sure you have enough hp to actually cast it..or else it was a bug DX

The tooltip no longer says that it takes 8% of base HP, but that is still the case.

This spell can be used in conjunction with a trinket such as The Hypnotists Watch (quest reward):

- https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=25786

or the Timelapse Shard (available from the Keepers of Time Quartermaster at Exalted):

- https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=29181

(NB: the trinket share a cooldown; see their detail page for, well, detail.)

and you are also able to use a Shrouding Potion:

(the recipe for which is available from the Sporeggar quartermaster at Exalted).

Beautiful spell. One of the best Warlocks got in the expansion, in my Warlocky opinion. Before this we didn't have anything we could do if we became threat capped (except Soulstone ourselves, then Hellfire suicide).

This is one of the greatest additions to a locks spell list in BC. To get the most out of Soul Shatter on a boss encounter, make sure you don't use it too soon, don't burst a target down before the tank has had time to build decent threat, and then hit you're oh-^&*!-button, as you'll find yourself threat-capped again in no time. I like to wait a good 20% into the duration of the fight before using this, using it at this time gives the tank a huge lead in threat comparable to you, and you can pretty much go all out from this point in most fights.

It's also important to use it just before you think you'll pull agro, as the spell is resistible, although i'm yet to wipe a raid because of it.

Just a note, this spell is resisted on a mob by mob basis, so on an aoe pull, you've got a fair chance 1 mob may resist your SS and you die anyway.

Commento di 25795

Keep in mind that those items are pretty useless, they're worth less than a single Shadow Bolt worth of threat.

A single Shadow Bolt's threat is more than enough to pull aggro. These items are situational? Yes. Useless? Not a chance.

Commento di 219357

I think this spell resist chance =1%, and no matter how much hit raiting you have.

Commento di 182076

Pretty meh spell. Not useful at all in any of the current raid content. Maybe it will see a use when new content is released, but as of right now, it's very skippable.

Commento di 344162

Since patch 3.0.2 this spell is no longer affected by Spell Hit Chance so in fact it always hits.

To quote Ghostcrawler:
"As far as we know, Soulshatter always hits. It isn't tied to any other talent, such as Suppression. It would still hit if you had zero +hit on your gear. This was changed at some point after LK launched."

Commento di 303838

Anyone know what the plans are for this spell in Cata?

I can see this keeping it's shard cost, as it really is an 'oh !@#$!' button, and if it lost it's shard cost it would simply be spammed on every cooldown.

Alternatively, it would be cool to see it retain it's current functionality, and have added functionality when used with soulburn.

IE: Soulburn + Soulshatter = complete agro reset (like feign death or vanish)

Personally, i'd like to see it keep it's soul shard cost, as it promotes warlocks being a bit more conservative instead of just smashing all their buttons at once and having an agro drop whenever it's off CD.

Commento di 137501

as of 4.0.1 this spell no longer requires a soul shard and costs health instead of mana.

Commento di Allakhazam

This spell has a cooldown of 5 min, requires a soul shard and 185 health.

Commento di Thottbot

this was oh so needed

Commento di Thottbot

how long does it last for?

Commento di Thottbot

well ofcoarse it just affects you.. what good would it do if you have aggro and you use it,and it affects the tank aswell..

so SO,needed..

Commento di Thottbot

Bliz giving us a spell that we really need....

Who are you and what have you done with the real bliz?

I will believe that you are the real bliz if this some how gets nerfed in the next few months... like cost 2 soulshards...

everyone cross fingers that SoC doesn't get nerfed cause that spell just seems way to good for us to have for very long in its current state

Commento di Thottbot

Does this spell affect your pets aggro? or just the caster

Commento di Thottbot

this only clears your aggro by 50%

meaning... say the tank has 100 on the aggro list, you have 120 on the mobs aggro list.. so now hes gonna look at you and start trying to rape your butthole, this is when you pop soulshatter and boom now your aggro is down to 60 and the tanks is 120 meaning the tank regains aggro and you lose it. thats all this does PERIOD. nothing less, nothing more. hope that helped :>

Commento di Thottbot

Stay just below the tank's threat the whole time, pop Soulshatter, and the boss mob will be dead by the time your threat gets high again. This is when you unload. Pop your trinkets, activate your imp (if you know that AoE damage won't be a factor) and light 'em up.

If you're 0/21/40, you can sac your imp for 15% more fire damage. Or sac a succubus and pewpew shadowbolts, if that's your thing.

Commento di Thottbot

sometimes on klh this shows a much greater reduction then 50% can this spell crit or is it just a klh bug? anyone know?

Commento di Thottbot

It's a spell...

Instant cast
5 Minutes Cooldown
Reduces threat 50% to all enemies within 50 yards (Only reduces you threat, not you pet or others)
Cost 1 shard and 8% base health.

Very simple.. I have never seen it crit, and I dont think it's capable to crit.

KLH Threat Meter works fine with this spell..

Example: The tank have 130 000 threat and you have 120 000 threat.. Then it's time to use Soulshatter and BANG, you suddenly have 60 000 threat.

Commento di Thottbot

think like...
a rogue's feint, a succubus' soothing kiss,
but in a 50 yard area
its not a buff, its a spell
hope this helps some of you confused people out there

Commento di Thottbot

Some people are saying "it makes red mobs yellow" or something like that..

no..

this spell reduces your threat by 50% like it says, the threat system is based on numbers, a certain spell will raise threat by a certain number, so if you are at 300 threat, this spell will reduce it to 150

Commento di Thottbot

It seems to me from some posts that giving a lock aggro control is a bad idea as locks are powerful enough as it is est. I'd like to point out that any lock worth his weight uses DOTS as major part of the damage he does. Now normally when someone overaggros the tank the idea is to stop attacking and let the tank regain control, however, if you were to be a lock in this same position it might be much more difficult than that as the DOTS will continue to tick and draw aggro reguardless if you have stopped attacking the creature in question. This ability, in my opinion, is a necessity for locks, particularly afflic locks such as myself.

Commento di Thottbot

I hate this argument about fair or unfair! People always complain about that issue when it comes to PvP, and this spell is only usable in PvE, plain and simple. It will keep your groups from wiping from loose mobs after the lock is dead, so people, please stop complaining, and realize there are no downsides to any class from this spell.

Commento di Thottbot

Although mages get invisibility, I'd take this over it any day, because while they get pounded on, they are lucky to get 1 tick off of invisibility, this is a sure fire way to automatically lose aggro

Commento di Thottbot

my question is: could it kill you if you are under 8% of base healht(maybe at malchezzar, with his nice little debuff), or would it simply not work like the life tap thing.

Commento di Thottbot

doesn't matter when your tanks pushing 120k+ agroo pop it u loose 60k regardless ur dots/serging pain wont get ur agroo bak

Commento di Thottbot

Fade is not as usefull as people tend to think, unlike this spell it isn't a permanent agro dump, agro is temporarily diminished which allows you to wait for tank to gain more.. once you re-engage the target all of your original agro comes back.

Commento di Thottbot

Dear God please for our sakes proofread your work, the point is good but unreadable.

Commento di Thottbot

One of the best spells in game.In a raid for example gruul and when hes at low HP and you have much aggro you can just pop this and dps the @#$% out of him before he beats your tank to nothing.

Commento di Thottbot

this saved my ass big time in gruls when i over did it on agro pull... he started running at me i jsut hit that and he went back to rapping our tank saved me from dieing for sure lol.
