WoW Shadowlands: Night fae class ability for priests revised

In the WoW Shadowlands beta, the Night Fae's Pact abilities have been revised for all three specs of the Priest after feedback for the Night Fae's class abilities was not very positive.

Surround yourself with helpful spirits through which your next 10 spells will assist your target depending on the spell

• Shadow Heal, Mind Blast, Lightning Heal, Heal: Reduces damage taken from an ally by 10% for 15 sec.
• Word of Power: Shield: Grants your target 2% mana or 20% of their resource.
• Void Bolt, Prayer of Healing, Power Word: Shine: Reduces the cooldowns of up to 5 allies' main abilities by 3 sec.

New
Fae Guardians (90 sec cooldown) - Summons three faeries that focus on your targets for 20 sec.

• Wrathful Faerie: Your direct attacks against the target restore one percent mana or six points of insanity after casting Shadow Word: Pain.
• Guardian Faerie: Reduces damage taken after casting Power Word: Shield.
• Benevolent Faerie: Increases the recharge rate of one of your major abilities by 100% after using Shadow Heal/Lightning Heal.

Instead of using ten faerie recharges, you use one of each of the three faeries on your target and have more flexibility in choosing which effects to activate. Each fairy can only be active on one target at a time. When you use Fae Guardians, the Guardian Fairy and Benevolent Fairy are immediately cast on yourself. After that, you can use Power Word: Shield to send the Guardian Fairy to other targets, Shadow Heal to give the Benevolent Fairy a target, and Shadow Word: Pain to cast the Wrathful Fairy on a target. The Wrathful Fairy will only spend mana or insanity on yourself.
