I am tired of so many people just able to negate our only true defensive with one of many cds. Can we stop bubble, iceblock and the like from getting rid of karma?
In all honesty our true defensive is out mobility coupled with teleports…karma is just a bonus, and just dont use it on the classes tht can negate it…throw it on pet if you need to no paladin will bop it off a pet, (if you are using it for heals), or throw it on the paladin to force Defensives then back to kiting untill your burst is up…right now we can 100-0 any class that has no defensives.
pet’s aren’t always there, and there is only so much running you can do in an arena. As well the pet classes can dismiss pet outside arena to instantly get rid of karma as well
Karma for paladin bubble is a fair trade. Port and kite and go back in. Think more like ninja, less like battle crazed warrior.
Can’t we just have ToD purge immunities as a trade?
We’re not rogues. As much as I’d like Windwalk from WC3 for WW to be a godamn stealth bomber, it’d probably cost us a raid tier. Also port doesn’t heal anymore. Effuse healing is still laughable, and we have to talent into expel harm which used to be baseline.
And of course we’re not battle crazed warriors. We’re a severely nerfed spec. Lore wise, we could punch mountains in half and teleport around in a misty fart form. Gameplay wise we’re barely close.
Windwalker off healing is actually pretty terrific so don’t discount it. It’s kept myself and my partner alive in many arena matches.
Also if you’re eating a lot of damage and they bubble or clos karma off teleport out and heal up. If they come over to you fsk or roll away. You have ample ways to kite the heck out of melee when you need to.
this is really inaccurate…effuse is one of the only heals in the game that uses energy thus allowing us to spam it and never run out of mana, I have kept partners alive being able to spam it…this coupled with our insane mobility (really only another ww and some DH can keep up) it is an amazing heal
I won’t doubt that you’ve kept partners alive through effuse. However, I wouldn’t consider a slightly weaker casted Expel Harm with no CD a good heal. Especially considering what we had in its place before which was essentially half a Lay on Hands if you planned ahead and the other half in like 2-3 globals.
While it is true that it is likely the only heals in the game that costs energy, other specs have cheaper heals for resources they barely/never use (ret/feral/boomkin/spriest/ele). And in some cases insta cast as well (Ret Pallies/Ferals/Enhance).
