Yes it was and now you wont ever seee rogues again unless they get a huge damage buff to compensate.

druid’s cyclone cap is back though since it looks like its gonna be a full 6 seconds again

6

Not really. Just trinket the cyclone. The problem with rogue was sap then blind. They count on people trinketing sap and cap on bline.

This is why you stand away from the flag.

Well I know that, but some do not and that is how rogue could sap/blind cap. I don’t think a Druid has anything like that.

I disagree. If a player is so stupid to stand next to a flag in a BG then that’s bad gameplay.

I agree it was annoying though. Now it will truly be whoever wins the nodes at the beginning of a bg who generally wins, thinking of you BforGilneas, and it’s already boring.

One great reason for being a rogue in battlegrounds was to turn the tide without drawing blades… gone, unless they change the time it takes to cap a flag.

Or even if the entire team didn’t tell them to stand away. There are some new players who maybe had no clue but every RBG I been in, someone always reminds base sitters to stay away from the flag.

I always ask people to not stand next to the flag, most people are grateful for the advice.

Enlighten me on how that works.

I’d just use a potion of concealment.

17

Or you could have stood more than 8 seconds from the flag.

Good. Rogues and disc priest finally out of the spotlight finally.

Just proof that they cannot design pvp for both arena and bg’s at once. They have to pick one, and they obviously picked arena.

21

Yeah that’s all you can do though. Battlegrounds have too many variables. Arena, that’s just pure pvp.

SO? Just means no one will carry rogues in RBGs.

Re roll to the new fotm
