Covenant should remain a hard choice. Choices should matter

If some people are completely incapable of not playing the most mathematically OP spec/build/class then that is clearly their problem.

This isn’t about math. Let me reiterate again:

@Rhielle-sentinels

They’re robbing people of the ability to change something they may end up not liking. Not even talking numbers.

It’s less choice, not more. Stuck with something someone may regret and then abandon the game when their favorite character suddenly has to do a long grind to find something else they like better.

And what happens when Blizz decides to change the abilities in a patch? Rework or retune them and suddenly it’s not as fun to someone anymore? That person is stuck with a long grind because Blizz changed things and the person no longer finds it fun.

What happens when someone loves one ability for its fun in PvP, but really thinks something else is more exciting for PvE?

This isn’t even about numbers. This is about people being stuck in a type of gameplay they may find unappealing after they take it or after Blizz inevitably changes things.

Someone may love a Covenant for the cosmetics but hate the abilities it gives. So they’re just screwed.

Abilities should not be locked behind a story faction.
