Shadowfiend in WoW SoD, explained
Shadowfiend is an instant cast spell you can get by picking up the Scroll of Shadowfiend in any phase two five-person instance. The Shadowfiend spell summons a shadowy figure that attacks the targeted hostile. The caster drains five percent of the target’s mana for 15 seconds.
Mana conservation is the biggest challenge for any caster class. Compared to the Warlock’s Life Tap, Shadow Priests have relatively little utility to generate their own mana. With Shadowfiend, you can extend the life of your mana bar without the cost of your health.
