Ok, Im about 2 bubs from dinging 66 and getting shadowfiend. Ive got a couple questions. Does my +dmg, or +shadwo gear improve the damage done by shadow fiend? Does shadowfiend proc Vamp embraces healing? or Vamp touches mana regean? Can I use inner focus to cast Shadowfiend for free? and what is 6% of 9000? Thanks

Yes.

No. Only your spells can. The Fiend is not you, is it?

Dito.

Yes, but why? It's only ~100 mana.
I like my shadowy friend.
He's a nice little mana battery,,,,great for grinding. Mana getting lower than normal,,let him go while wanding.
Shadowfiend appears to be classified as shadow melee damage. It benefits from your +dmg at a 65% ratio (10 hits at 6.5% of your +dmg each), and the damage is boosted by Shadowform, Shadow Weaving, Curse of Shadows, and Misery (and possibly Darkness?). In addition, because it's melee damage, it also benefits from any AP buffs (and double-dips them... gets strength from Strength of Earth totem, and benefits from the extra strength you yourself have), armor reductions on the target, and so on. It also has a standard melee hit table (crit/hit/miss/dodge/parry/glance, not sure about block), and as such benefits from being dropped behind the target (in order to negate parry chance). Finally, it benefits from Bloodlust, but only if Bloodlust is cast after it is (so the buff is actually placed on it).
He was asking 6% of 9000 because fiend costs 6% of your base mana. However, this is BASE mana (when you're naked), meaning it's cheaper than a talented Mind Flay... I want to say either 187 or 157 mana (I seem to have dyslexia with those two numbers), but I may be off a bit.

always have a level 1 sw:p somewhere in your action bars. and use that to stack quick easy and cheap + to shadow damage if you're concerned about mana. the shadow fiend and you benefits from that too. too bad windfury doesn't proc on the fiend. it's not like it carries a weapon.
