I cant wait until fire mages drop 400 cr because they no longer have greater pyro to carry them to victory.

Remove greater pyro and mages are the same

wait till you see good mages with mechagon bracers
rogue/mage wouldn’t be affected much if gpy was removed
they’d mainly only lose kick bait on fire school to secure free polys
fire mld would probably be a little less oppressive but frost mld is insane into most things anyways

All % based abilities are bad for the game esp if it does not have a cooldown, snipershot has a cooldown but its basically gpyro that cant be kicked. but its balanced cause it has a cooldown. stuff like reverse harm and greater heal and stuff that have almost no cooldown or punishment for being kicked on are bad for this game.

nah wouldn’t change anything
good rogue/mages or war/mages dont even use gpy as anything more than a scripted kick soak to immediately get a free ring/sheep
bracer/lucid/combust on a random kidney/stormbolt with no trinket or external is where you’ll lose the game
you’d see less mld though so thats a win
I’ve seen less hunters in arena than ive seen prot warriors/pallies and guardian druids.
scripted kick soak is probably the most toxic thing in the game, you let it go off they get a cd you kick it they get a cd and control over the course of the game.

Their Meteor+Combustion goes would be the same, but I feel like I could sit in the open or push in for fears on their healer. I also wouldn’t have to use my silence and stun on them for gpy and could stop poly’s more.

I have to say I don’t see this being a huge problem ATM
It would be great if we got greater frenzied Regen
After all the development time spend coding the algorithms that determine how damage/healing abilities are calculated and how they interact with stats/buffs/procs/etc, I can’t believe someone said “lets just get rid of all that math and make it do 35%” (not even 1/3 what the hell) and the people in charge agreed with it.

That kind of ability is such a slap to the face of any player who worked to gear their toon only to be hit with 35% flat damage no matter what. It’s fun but unfair at the same time. They should give a trade off like it reduces your defenses.
This 100%. Force kicks because if you don’t it pulls cds. Kick and you pull cds from control

Also, I have never seen an expac punish actually casting like this one. Who are the top two casters ? A healer who doesn’t need to cast and a mage spec built around instants
Negative, remove all % based abilities make them scale off of AP so they can be balanced accordingly and even be used more skillfully by better players.
Hey Cov, random question but how come Survival hunters dont use steel trap ever?
Seems like an additional CC tool vs cleaves
I believe it gets rid of freezing trap? Can’t remember for sure since I’ve maybe used it like 1 time outta curiosity. Basically all you need to know is it’s bad and never use it lol.
it doesn’t replace Freezing, i thought the same til i tried it on my alt.
the other options being murder of crows and the kill command bleed/attack speed buff don’t seem like super crazy contenders either?
Just seems like a solid root if you wanted an additional tool
im dead haha
you’re such a joker!!
