Every week, WoW Insider brings you Spiritual Guidance for discipline, holy and shadow priests. On Wednesdays, shadow priesting expert Fox Van Allen comes from out of the darkness to bask in your loving adoration (and say really controversial stuff, apparently).
Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa’s Rest. With patch 4.2, our own legendary came at last.
The power of the weapon is absolutely unmatched. By virtue of the staff’s stats, it’s the shadow priest’s best-in-slot weapon for patch 4.2 and likely for patch 4.3 as well. Beyond that, though, Dragonwrath is worth thousands of extra DPS by virtue of its spell-duplication proc alone. And did I mention that it can also turn you into a giant friggin’ blue dragon? Why wouldn’t you want this thing?
But like everything worth doing, getting the Dragonwrath doesn’t come easy. To score this epic, you need to put in your time in the Firelands, beat down some bosses, and then undergo Through a Glass, Darkly, the hardest solo quest your shadow priest will ever suffer. Are you ready?

Chris wrote in to me with this question:
I haven’t been able to get into successful Firelands raid groups very often, because I only have a 5/7 achievement on Blackrock, where almost everyone either demands a 6/7 achievement or gives up after repeated wipes. On my old server, Stormscale, it was even worse — Firelands PUGs were practically non-existent. No successful raiding guild seems to have space for a mage, and when I stepped in as leader for the second raid group in my current guild, people stopped showing up!How can I find a guild or PUG that’ll take me as I am, and where I’ll have a decent chance of killing Domo and Rag? I don’t want to switch to playing a tank or healer as my main, since it’d put me back to square one in both skill and gear.
While this level of raiding is a bit beyond the standard rookie level, it’s definitely a problem that many rookies face while trying to get into raiding. I wanted to cover it here instead of having someone field it in Ready Check, because I think this is the kind of information and strategy that will be important to new players trying to get into progression.
(Note that I don’t mean imply that Chris is new or anything like that; sounds like he’s totally on the good part of the curve. But still, this is good advice for rookies.)
