Bedazzle. What in the Light's name is going through the devs heads

A conal ability with a short range, cast time and causing attacks to miss for 3 sec. Replacing pretty much 12% crit in Vengeance Aura. On a 90 sec cooldown too.

What is this?

I’m far more interested in the name than the functionality.

Bedazzle. What in the pink power ranger is this.

“Paladin just Bedazzled me”.

Bedazzle. BEDAZZLE.

Its a proven ability, mechanically. Stolen straight from Johanna in HotS/D3 Crusader.

Ruki actually said something smart earlier, it should be instant or it should be unkickable.

These games are not the same as wow though, even if this was instant cast it’s still massively underwhelming compared to other new PvP talents coming to the table.

No, but the mechanics arent all that different. Prevent all potential damage during part of a burst window to attempt to save a teammate.

It 100% needs to be instant though. Unkickable doesnt seem like itd be enough.

I’m not sure why they’d remove veng aura in favour of this. I thought the PvP talent changes were primarily supposed to replace talents that never get used.

The name is very meme worthy too. Sounds like a Disney movie.

an april foolz joke.

member when guild uses website and ask to sign-in, and then they post all that in there lol. >_>

a 3 second aoe gfade for your team is anything but underwhelming lol.

20 yard cone with a cast time and 1.5 min cd is what’s underwhelming.

Don’t bet on it getting buffed, only nerfs heading our way

20 yards is pretty forgiving, and i was more responding to their point that even as an instant cast it’d be underwhelming.

as an instant, it’d be a strong utility button on a spec thats now oozing utility already.

To be fair, PvP talents should be more about utility stuff like Bedazzle and less about Zug Zug damage.

Utility is great.

I’m questioning this spells effectiveness at being utility worth picking. It’s a 1.5 second cast on a 90 second CD that lasts 3 seconds. That doesn’t strike me as impressive at all.

I just did the PvP with the Blues, and Bedazzle is actually worse than I thought.

The casting animation for it is a MASSIVE glowing orb that might as well just say “kick me” lol

Sounds like a bad pvp talent. But they keep nerfing or getting rid of our other ones.
