I ended up with 17/0/34 for now. My mana pool took a hit with no mental strength now -- running around 5300-5400 mana. However I figure the free spell cast every 3 mins, and the 15% regen from meditation will offset it to a degree.
If I wasn't raid specced as well, I could drop the -threat talents, but as it stands I'm at 33% threat reduction for shadow spells. (8% for healing) I did pick up the improved VE and the effect is noticable -- it's misleading since it says it adds 10% more, but the effective boost is 50%! It's really nice to be self-healing for anywhere from 75-85 per tick of pain or mind flay.
I suspect a specced out VE Shadow Priest will be an impressive force in the 5 man dungeons with a shaman or paladin doing the healing. The tank will have a very high level renew always on him. (80*4 = 320 dmg healed every 3 secs)
