The idea I can provide is: Adapt.
We had a pre-expansion patch, thats the same as getting the expansion, so its an entirely new balancing act, old ways of doing stuff don't work (or at least; not as well) anymore.
This also leads to older recoomendations being largely invalid - so look at the date/patch of the posting, and don't expect things to be accurate if posted before patch 5.0.4.

Mind Blast now has a longer cooldown. What I've been doing while in Tol Barad is:
If I have three Shadow Orbs, cast Devouring Plague (one-shots the mob for me)
Mind Blast
Mind Spike until dead

Just use dots then? :x I've been doing TB dailies as well since patch, if it's a packed area with mobs SW:P everything and mop up with FDCL procs / SW:D and if more spread VT + SW:P everything and keep moving.

Mind Spike+Mind Blast is a lot weaker now because you aren't getting guaranteed MB crits (the old MS debuff that stacked 33% crit chance to MB is gone). Pull with either DP or MB now, these should bring the mob close to execute so throw in a SW:D to get your orbs back up (maybe tap pain in to bring them into execute range) and finish the mob, loot, repeat :)

DP is now insane. Basically stack Shadow Orbs as fast as you can and then pop DP. Keep SWP and VT up (SWP is more important than VT for the additional instant MB procs.)
My dps has shot through the roof since 5.0, my shadow spec is undergeared, I'm still using a trinket from FL normal and another trinket from Well of Eternity (yes the 5 man dungeon,) but I can pull over 40k dps on HC Ultrax now. And thats with a 2 piece shadow raid finder set and a bunch of healing cloth.
Healing priests are suffering at the moment to be honest but shadow seems to have been really heavily buffed. I may not play my priest in MOP because I like healing so much but if we are really short of ranged dps I may reconsider.
