Now that I pretty much settled into SoD BGs after coming over from ERA, ya that bubble w/ damage is way over the top.
I have been listening to the usual cries for FOTM nerf bats and this one deserves much attention for obvious reason.
I also see a lot of call for Boomkin nerfs, but quite honest as a warlock I already know my roll regarding. When I see them penguin in from the back, my felguard stun and big fear is ready. They are pretty much glass cannons. Therefore no hate here regarding. Just be on watch.
Therefore, back to the subject of Pally āgodā mode that needs nerfed. Nerf nerf nerf!
Cheers
Please nerf rock and buff paper, sincerely scissors.

Pretty much everyone agrees that they can keep their safety blankets, they just need 50% reduced damage while in it.
Super simple fix.
I donāt know if 50% is the right number with the state of SoD these days, but I will agree that the swing timer reduction should be changed to some amount of reduced damage dealt.
Thereās a LOT of power for both damage and healing that goes out in SoD, and paladins tend to be pretty squish outside bubble since they donāt have great melee fight control like other melee do. Especially since armor means nothing anymore for anyone.
So is the number 50%? 20%? 35%? Unclear.
Give them a speed buff when they bubble instead of damage:P
heh.
simple fact is , pallies of at least 1 maybe 2 setups (if you count reck as one if not then just 1 setup) can 2 global people rather reliably.
nerfing their damage by 50% while bubbled would stop that happening while they are also completely immune to all cc / purges/ damage (other than balefire bolt) .
50% is the number to nerf it by. no more no less.

I love all the people that donāt understand bubble already has a 50% DMG nerf with the 100% reduced attack speed. 90% of rets DMG comes from the auto with 2 seals. Crusader strike does like 600 DMG and ds does like 850 and neither proc seals. All of the rets burst comes from hitting u 6 times in 2 globals. Exorcism auto som soc proc judgment soc SoM.
whatever the damage source is or how many times they are hitting you , the fact is within 2 globals they can 100-0 you while bubbled and immune to all cc/purges/damage sources (other than balefire bolt).
while its true they already have the attack speed being 100% more they should also have a flat 50% damage done while bubbled on top of that.
nobody should be pretty much immune to everything AND ALSO BE ABLE TO 2 GLOBAL YOU AT THE SAME TIME.
1 or the other. not both.

Exactly.
We arenāt trying to have bubble taken away or have any of itās defensive utility changed. They can still do all of their other silly things like bubble rushing giant groups or buying time at flags. Heck, the bot pally healers Iāve been seeing can still bubble and spam flash heal on the bad player using them with full immunity (thatās a different issue).
The thing everyone is screaming about is being 2 globaled while being completely immune.
The only thing that is needed to fix the entire issue is a 50% dmg reduction while in bubble.
I would HATE that, but Iād take it LOL.
All I care about is the seriously OP full immunity + damage aspect, but could you imagine all the little pally healers zooming in or Rets/Shocks zooming out like F1 cars the second things get dicey?
Screw it, make it give them 100% movement for 3-4 seconds, I want to see it now.
Just run around until it drops.

when the pally closes the distance while unable to be cced /slowed/purged/damaged and also āsprintā , gl getting out of melee range and gl not getting 2 globaled.
but ya whatever run around while the pally eats you while COMPLETELY IMMUNE.
50- yes, if they remove the swing timer penalty and plus if shamanistic rage takes a nerf
-50% healing reduction when You are in SR.
Just like paladins with GBTL.
