ok so you gutted alter time now make it so it cant be dispelled
What was the nerf? I didn’t see.
I think he’s referring to this. It was in the patch notes from December.
- Alter Time is now affected by healing reduction effects, such as dampening.
Also class abilities not just dampening
So Mortal Strike too then?
yep /10char
This is going to truly screw us in PvP though - we’re basically tuned around it, and in 2s (which aren’t meant to be balanced, I know) a double-dps comp as a mage is pretty much dead. Ice Block heal was already nerfed to bits, I really don’t see why an easily-counterable Alter Time needs to also be gutted. Also - it’s not even supposed to be a heal? I’m altering time, and snapshotting back to my prior situation, not healing myself…
I love how Alter Time’s entire ethos is precisely that it isn’t a healing ability (and super clunky and awkward to use because of that) but now it’s also affected by healing reduction effects. Literally the worst of both worlds. I wish the devs would make up their minds… if it’s not a healing ability then it shouldn’t be affected by healing reduction effects and if it is then just make it an instant full health heal like Lay on Hands.
Could change it to Rewind Time and have it insta heal for damage lost in the last few seconds or so, but then it’s basically just the PvP talent with the healing up front instead of after a delay, so
Right? Alter Some Time Sorta. It doesn’t even make sense as a spell at this point. (Didn’t it actually used to give your CDs back? Like…actually snapshot you back? But hey let’s continue killing the theme, everyone loves casting Fireball after switching from Purple spec)
Blizzard make it undispellable be smart for once be fun for once be good for once dont be blue haired for once
