It can break crowd control and you cannot use Consecration at will to try to find stealth classes. Also gives Golden Path and Hallowed Ground PvP talent no use.
Any PvP talent on the horizon in response to this?

Yeah…why can’t we use consecration at the start of an arena match / wpvp to try catch out rogue or feral druid? Are we supposed to just stand still and throw wake of ashes into thin air hoping we catch a stealth opponent?
Or am I missing something from the Hero talents to help with this?
Whoever is in charge of ret has no clue about pvp. Just look at all the modifiers we are carrying from DF

LMAO! Retlol trying to PvP. Play a real class or put on a dress and heal.
This is a joke. Don’t hurt me!
Sorry alll, I don’t miss the hotkey needed for consecration. Happy with changes.
Well, with consecrated blade and hallowed ground you can snare people at range with BoJ, or BoJ an enemy on a buddy at range to free them from a snare. It has it’s uses.
I absolutely hate this change. I’ve had my consecration spell for 20 years and don’t appreciate it going away.

It’s not going away, it’s just gonna be automatically cast at the BoJ’s location.
Ya, which I absolutely hate. I want to cast it when I want it, where I want it, with a consecration spell. Not this stupid change.

It literally breaks cc hence the pvp mentioned in the title. It also removes the ability to pull stealth specs or put them in combat. Literally removing tools from the spec that affect an entire mode
No pvper ever wanted cons gone.

It’s great for PvE
It’s bad for PvP.
Our PvP talents are stale, wouldn’t be very hard to fix.

Losing the ability to drop a consecrate as needed is bad enough, but having it baked into blade of justice is a real kick in the groin for PvP.

This feels manufactured, we’ve only ever worried about Blessed Champion cleave breaking traps or CC. Consecrated Blade was hard locked in all forms of content and they’ve given us a talent point to put elsewhere.

Blizz focus is mainly on PvE.
In other news, water is wet.
If the people playing PvP want a game that caters to them, they should start looking elsewhere.
I don’t know how many times they have to be ignored/mistreated and for how long before they realize they should move along.
And I’m not saying this because I want consecration as a button back, I’m glad its gone baseline on Ret.
But this just highlights how the gamemodes flat out wants completely different things out of the game and goes at counter current from each others.
WoW is no longer a PVP oriented game (if it ever was).
I feel for the people who fell in love with it and can’t find themselves in it anymore.
From how they treated PVP in the past decade, I’d find another game to play but that’s me.
Depends on how you use it. It being on BoJ cast is great to use as a snare.
How ever all these guys saying we used it to break rogue stealth… rogues sap reaches far past cons range ya know.
If you never got a stealth out of it thats a you issue. As I said it keeps them in combat too.
No, people wont waste talent points on a weird so called “snare” over any of the two point nodes recently added. You wont waste pvp talents either because reckoning sanc and spellwarding are locked forever.
In all forms of contemt “but” pvp. Doesnt sound like all forma of content
I wish we at least had the ability to toggle it off and on.

Back when sap was in melee and rogues stealth did not have AoE stealth protection i did indeed broke them out multiple times.
But those days had long been past. Also if you want to use an AoE to break stealth (or lol attempt to) you have divine hammer now.
You won’t spend points in a 50% snare and think we would have the right to complain about being lol kited in pvp then?
Again, that flex point was blessed champion when playing Cupid.
