- For the Undead racial trait, see racial traits.
As stated in the Resistance article, resistance gear should only be used when it's really needed. There are various sources for shadow resistance (like green random drop items and sets crafted from Dark Runes).
Resistable spells[]
- Priest: [Shadow Word: Pain], [Mind Blast], [Psychic Scream], [Devouring Plague], [Shadow Word: Death], [Mind Control], [Mind Soothe], [Mana Burn]
- Warlock: [Shadow Bolt], [Corruption], [Drain Life], [Drain Soul], Curse of Agony, [Fear], [Curse of Weakness], [Curse of Tongues], [Banish], [Death Coil], [Howl of Terror], [Curse of the Elements]
Useful in...[]
In the following instances, shadow resistance can be useful:
- Scholomance and Stratholme: shadow resistance can make these instances easier, but it's by no means required (even the priest buff is not really needed)
- Blackwing Lair: The tanks on Ebonroc need shadow resistance
- Temple of Ahn'Qiraj: essential for Warlock Tanks at the Twin Emperors
PvP[]
Besides that, shadow resistance can also be useful in PvP when fighting shadow Priests and Warlocks.
