Notes

• Shadow Affinity multiplicatively stacks with other threat reduction methods such as the paladin's Blessing of Salvation, and Shadowform.
• It does affect Vampiric Embrace's healing. If you plan to raid as a Shadow priest, this is a worthwhile talent.

Patch changes

• Patch 3.1.0 (14-Apr-2009): Now also restores 5/10/15% of the priest's base mana if Shadow Word: Pain or Vampiric Touch is dispelled.
