Kommentar von Jeth84

Seems like the feathers from the Alysrazor encounter in Firelands. Pretty cool priest talent IMO

Kommentar von 979287

This talent seems a little overpowered at the moment. It replaced a talent that gave you a 30% run speed buff when you applied Levitate that persisted for 30 seconds after Levitate was removed. That talent was bugged so it wasn't giving you the buff after Levitate was removed after taking damage.

This talent, while not indefinitely spammable is super strong. It's the same as the other talent that gives you 60% run speed from applying PW: Shield, but it can be chained together initially for 16 seconds of 60% run speed. I can't imagine it will stay this way until live.

Kommentar von Yuke

In theory, these are a 16 second 60% speed buff if chained correctly that ANY ally can use. So in theory you can set up a chain for the Flag Carrier in WSG which would be incredibly powerful
In Practice, it takes a good amount of preplanning and time to place the feathers the correct distance apart so it doesn't overlap and you cut into the buff. Maybe I'm not the most skilled at this, but after about twenty tries of setting up a line, I'd only get effectively 12 seconds at most. And I was taking a good chunk of time.
So while you can get 15 or 16 seconds of the buff, it'll take a good level of skill with this spell and some time to place all 3 in a line. Time that usually would be best spent running away.
Also, the feathers are golden floating feathers and they're big. The feather was roughly the size of my goblin, so it's something that is very visible.

It's still incredibly powerful, and probably will get nerfed, but it's not impossible to deal with. Any PvPer worth his salt will see the priest carefully setting up 3 big golden feathers in a line and will stop them.

In PvE though, if you can set these up during a lull in the fighting or before the fight, it would be incredibly powerful

A bit of additional information:

The feather buff can only affect 1 person regardless of how many people trigger it, who is near it, party, raid, etc. If multiple people are on the feather or trigger it at the same time, the server will most likely pick the closest and/or first person there, based on server latency. Because of this, in order to maximize this for a player you will have to have a very coordinated group of players that know not to trigger the feathers. In a random battleground, dungeon or raid, this is not realistic.
Under perfect conditions, a full 16 seconds of +60% speed. In practice, you will rarely achieve a full 16 seconds on another player. It is, with some practice, relatively easy to get the full 16 seconds on yourself.
Feathers last for 5 10 minutes on the ground before they naturally despawn.
A maximum of 3 feathers can be placed on the ground. The 4th feather will trigger the 1st feathers despawn, the 5th the 2nd, the 6th the 3rd, ad infinitum.
Placing a feather on the ground triggers the global cooldown and placing a feather on the ground requires you to be out of the global cooldown, so with 0 haste and perfect latency it will take you 3 seconds to place 3 feathers (0, 1.5, 3.0)
Running through the feather when you already have a feather only refreshes your current buff to 4 seconds, it does not stack for additional movement speed increases.
The buff you gain is called Engelsfeder and is a magic buff, so it can be dispelled/purged.
Must be in line of sight to place the feather.
Does not aggro mobs when placing a feather (on top of or near)
Stacks multiplicatively with movement impairing effects such as Dazed, Concussive Shot, Crippling Poison, etc. While under the effects of a feather and running at 160% movement speed, being hit with a movement impairing effect that reduces your movement speed by 50%, the end result will be 80% movement speed for the duration of the feather.
Does not stack with other movement speed increases, the highest movement speed increase will always be taken. An example would be Inner Will which gives base +10% movement speed and glyphed can add an additional 6% for either 110% total movement speed or 116% movement speed. Hitting a Feather while under the effects of Inner Will will boost you to 160%, the higher movement speed increase of the two, not 170/176%.

* As of ~~5.0.4~~ 5.0.5, it appears that if you use a feather ~~(or trigger Body and Soul on yourself)~~ while under the effects of the Mind Flay movement speed increase, you will not get the buff. You can get around this issue by ~~creating a cancel aura macro for your Power Word: Shield self-cast keybind~~, manually removing the mind flay glyph increase before hitting a feather, waiting for it to fall off before you drop a feather on yourself or not taking the Mind Flay glyph. If this changes in the future, I will update this post with any relevant information.

* As of 5.0.5, Feathers still do not grant you the feather buff if you have any stack of the Mind Flay glyph on you. Body and Soul was fixed and will grant you the Body and Soul buff concurrent with any stack(s) of the Mind Flay Glyph

* As of 5.1, still same issue. :(

* As of 5.2, you can no longer pick up a feather on the ground if you're already under the effects of the Angelic Feather buff or the Glyph of Mindflay buff. The inverse holds true as well -- You can no longer gain a stack of the Glyph of Mindflay buff if you're already under the effects of Angelic Feather. This makes chaining feathers a bit more difficult but not impossible. A full chain of feathers now lasts about 50 seconds before you completely run out of feathers to drop but even then a new feather is coming up within a second or two so you can really get close to >90% uptime for well over a minute.

* As of 5.3, Angelic Feathers can overwrite each other again, so you can chain them back-to-back-to-back easier because you'll pick them up off the ground even if you currently have the buff, and it will increase the timer to 6 seconds again. You still cannot apply a feather or pick one up if you're under the effects of Glyph of Mind Flay, and additionally, if you're already under the effects of a feather and then start casting Mind Flay and gaining stacks of Glyph of Mind Flay, the Angelic Feather buff is removed and Glyph of Mind Flay starts stacking.

* As of 5.4, Angelic Feathers have been increased to 80% movement speed (up from 60%) and 10 minute duration (up from 5). No changes to aforementioned mechanics, including Glyph of Mind Flay still overwriting the feather buff and the feather buff not overwriting Glyph of Mind Flay. It appears you cannot pickup a feather when you're under the effects of any speed boost except Angelic Feather, so with the 80% increase it's even more important to make a /cancelaura macro in a PVE environment to make sure you're getting the fastest possible speed boost. The following should work:

/cancelaura Stampeding Roar
/cancelaura Glyph of Mind Flay
/cast Angelic Feather

If you go directly from a Mind Flay --> moving and trying to drop Angelic Feather, you might have to hit your button more than once. More often than not, Glyph of Mind Flay buff gets applied late because of latency so you'll cancel your 3 stack and end up with a 1 stack a split second later and not able to pickup your feather

Use at your discretion. If Stampeding Roar is "good enough", you're unable to consistently hit yourself with feathers or the timing is so tight you cannot afford to miss, you might not want to use this macro.

The feather effect persists through disconnect. If you are trying to get somewhere sneaky or just like having a speed boost for ~15 seconds instead of the standard four seconds, pop a feather, pull your ethernet cord or disconnect from wifi, run around for a bit, then reconnect. Be careful, though--if you're disconnected for too long the server will boot you and you'll wind up back where you started.

Kommentar von 294803

Can the feathers be targeted and destroyed or do you just have to deal with them for 5 minutes also can they be used in arenas?

Kommentar von 744278

This talent is a godsend for priests who are questing. It's so much easier to run at 60% speed from mob to mob than it is to mount up or run at normal speed. It has an impressive duration and recharges quickly.

If you you're leveling up your priest and you don't go for this talent, you are a masochist.

Kommentar von 883244

This is a serious speed boost for priests who need to run quickly during long walks in which mounts are not allowed (running back from raid wipes, old world instance soloing, etc). Simply keep the target in front of yourself and spam it whenever it's up. 4X3 = 12 seconds of 60% speed, then you can keep it up at 4 seconds on a short cooldown. You'll save a ton of time.

Plus, it's arguably the most fun speed boost. Feels like in Mario Kart whenever you hit a mushroom item :)

Kommentar von Hygeia

~~Fixed as of 5.3, updated my original post but posting here so the comment appears in the 5.3 patch dropdown.~~

Nevermind, not fixed? Inconclusive results!

Kommentar von sonnie460

Please do not remove this spell Blizzard. This is one of my favorite abilities!

Kommentar von KrazyCalvin

Thought I would point out that you are able to cast an Angelic Feather onto water. This means you can levitate on the water and then use the feathers to move quicker.

Kommentar von UlarnekIronclaw

I'm not sure why no one has mentioned yet that this is an 80% sprint that lasts 36 seconds before invoking any sort of cooldown.

Kommentar von Barringa

Let me paint you a picture. I'm in a random dungeon group, in Shadow spec, running through Stratholme. The run has been nice and clean, the tank has been making good sized pulls that she can handle and the healer can keep up with. Whilst running through to the next pack of mobs which is rather far away, I drop a feather in front of the tank to give them a speed boost.

Something comes over the level-headed tank. The heady power of +80% run speed does something to her formerly solid decision making skills. Crazed with power, she runs through five groups without stopping to AOE them, ends up at a sixth, and then uses Thunder Clap. There are mobs everywhere, the healer has been left in the dust by the Angelic Feather powered tank, and everyone's HP is dropping fast. At only 10% HP left, a quick Power Word: Shield from me is all that keeps the tank alive until the poor healer finally catches up. We down the mobs and are kept alive by a furiously chain casting healer.

This ability has a powerful effect on those non-Priests who are unexpectedly affected by it. This story is here as a warning to all: do not underestimate the power of this ability on the psyche of those who aren't used to running around like a lunatic whenever possible.

Kommentar von 744549

It was fun giving speed boosts at the Shrine of Seven Stars (/Two Moons), either leaving the feathers in convenient locations (steps leading to the two slopes) or dropping it in front of them :D

Kommentar von Dapaco

When I cast this, I cannot help to hear the Star Power song from Mario in my head with all the stars trailing behind me

Kommentar von SnowyRow

Apparently, if someone drops this on their farm at Sunsong Ranch, another person in their own farm phase may gain the effect.

This happened today for me while doing my farming with my Monk. I was surprised by a sudden boost in run speed, and saw the magic effect, and came here to look it up. Interesting.

Kommentar von greenhousegas

its a bit annoying if some one is running close to you and unintentionaly stealing your speed buff... :\

Kommentar von 1358593

This can be used to speed up many tedious processes.

Kommentar von Magepwnyou

Fun little fact, if this feather is touched by someone in a duel, you will recieve the buff instead of the dueling player, even if you're 100 yards away.

Kommentar von FAILoZOFF

Due to changed of how speed bonuses are calculated, before 6.0 max speed you could get with AF was 180% (cap) now after 6.0 even with nerf (80%speed>60%speed bonus) you still end up running at 170% if you have some other movement speed bonus (like boots enchant).

It is possible that classes with "build in" speed bonuses like uh dks in uh presence with boots enchant and Death's Advence talent will run even faster than ever before. Tho I haven't tested it out yet.

Kommentar von Berwind24

if you have three feathers out and place one directly on yourself none of the three will disappear as they would by placing a fourth normally.
I haven't tested this on other players at all.

Kommentar von wowilovehead

No longer available to shadow priests in Legion?
I want to mind flay Blizzard developers...

Kommentar von violetta

I miss my feathers!

Kommentar von Medius

***** Updated for BfA *****

Since Legion the "body and soul"-talent has long cooldown.

As holy its your only speedbuff.
As disc you can choose between body&soul and feathers, but feathers are recommend.
As Shadow you cant choose the feathers.

=== Auto-Casting feather on yourself ===
You dont like to place the feather under your feet manually?
Since Legion, there are new macro-options for these "targeting-casts".
The following macro will cast the feather directly on yourself! You can simply use a key as a speedbuff:

#showtooltip Angelic Feather
/cast Angelic Feather
/stopspelltarget

Since BfA I only recommend this short macro above.

BfA - Update for Macro from Medius

I have updated the excellent macro by Medius to work with the new talent setup in BfA.
Not all specs have both speed talents but this macro update should work with what you have available.

#showtooltip
/cast Angelic Feather
/stopspelltarget
/cast Power Word: Shield

Kommentar von Phasha

I have tried a few Engelsfeder macros and found this one handy:
#showtooltip
/cast 6; Angelic Feather

Press the macro: Cast Engelsfeder on yourself to grant the +40% speed for 5 seconds.
While holding Alt, press the macro: Use the green circle to place an Engelsfeder on the ground.
While holding Shift, press the macro: Cast the Northrend Engineering Nitrobooster attached to your belt.

Such macro conditionals allow casting Engelsfeder on yourself instantly when you need the speed to evade something on the ground.
