20 and 10yds, after they can use a speed boost to close some of that gap.
And there’s absolutely nothing OP with that. It’s still far less than most classes have.
and shaman has a total of half a stun if they are running ghost wolves who have a 3 min cool down.
your point?
It’s the class a whole when you put all those things together.
My comment was specifically addressing the “they’re easy to kite” statement.
Do you understand why a Paladin is not easy to kite?
A paladin is easy to kite. We have no slow and only one move speed every 45 sec. It’s just that most people keep casting when we run toward them that they say we are hard to kite.
Try to kite a war or a rogue and you’ll understand what hard to kite means.
And no offense but hard to kite a paladin coming from a drood screams skill issues.
Warriors and Rogues can’t heal. Neither have immunities either.

What’s the connection between what you said and the fact that Paladins are easy to kite ?
honestly being a melee class player sometimes, i can say you cant kite a pally as a melee player.
even as a shaman you have to be in 20 yards or so to even frost shock or get an earthbind out and if the pally bubbles… well none of those will work.
even as ranged if youre in a fight and a pally even gets close enough to you to just bubble+horse or just horse to you , you arent gonna be able to kite a pally in melee range of you.
yes pally is ez to kite but only if you can start at big range and keep that range even when they bubble+horse .
there are a few classes that can do that but not anywhere near the majority of them can.
Yeah i agree, paladins need some sort of frost shock to help them.
Maybe call it shock of justice or something. Lets get these classes balanced!
based and true

cept you play retail where the light isnt as good as it says it is!
ITS ALL LIES FROM THE DEEP TITAN STATE!
Yeah but again you take the exemple when we have bubble and horse.
For sure, when bubble is up your only strat is to have more move speed than us or make us loose as much time as possible, especially if we start healing ourselves during bubble> move away.
Now as a shaman you seriously have a perfect toolkit to kite us. Between your frost shock, totems and purge, you negate us hard. Bubble + Steed is our only proper catch up mechanic. Again, we have no slow and only one move speed on a 45 sec. CD. It’s seriously not the most OP toolkit melees have atm in SoD. To make it up to it we have a big burst (too big with the PvE bonus set maybe) but that’s how the class mechanic works.
Are you even reading what I’ve already typed? Go check the comments you originally started responding to me on.
You’re so upset that you’re blinding yourself to the conversation.
the problem is , with bubble+steed you negate that kiting all together.
completely nullify it to the point that trying to kite is meaningless.
especially if you are the variety of pally who can 2 global people reliably.
Oh yeah I’m super upset mate. You say paladins are hard to kite when you play drood (I presume boomkin). In my experience Droods have good tools to kite and I compare paladin toolkit to wars who have sh*tloads of gapclosers and rogues who have a poison basically tying your shoelaces from both feet together on top of a shadowstep every 30 sec. You then proceed to tell me that these guys can’t heal nor have immunities… which makes no sense really in the context of paladins are hard to kite. I’m not upset but I guess you are. Either way it’s fine.
Gear accordingly and you won’t be 2 globalled by a paladin,especially in BG. In open world it can happen fairly regularly but with PvP gear it doesn’t. Now yeah bubble negates a lot but it’s not like we have it constantly.
I play more than one class…
You can keep moving the goal post but the original statement stands, Paladins aren’t easy to kite.
i can say , even with full rank 13 gear and earth shield being up on an ele shaman , i have been 2 globaled by pallies quite a few times from full health.
i dont know what other gear you are talking about but i can tell you , i have that gear probably and i still get 2 globaled.
but do go on.
Of all the things you can reasonably argue paladins are OP atm you choose kiting.
Paladin is the worst melee class when it comes to sticking to a target. It’s just a fact.
We have no slow, only one sprint on a 45 sec. CD and a bubble every 5 min.
I still miss my T1 gloves to try the seal stacking build but I have a very hard time believing a shaman with R13 gear can be 2 tapped by a paladin in BG. Was it in open world ?
naw it was in a bg , multiple times.
Let the paladins eat… =)
