How did Ret go live like this?

Ret needs a flat 10% damage output nerf in all instanced PVP IMMEDIATELY!!! Until people figure out wtf is going on or what interaction is allowing 200k+ dps instantaneously

I just played 24 rounds of shuffle on my rsham (which by the way feels pretty strong) and on numerous occasion ret is just 2 shotting on contact during wings.

At this point it’s unacceptable for things like this to be happening every first 2-3 weeks of patch. I think everyone saw it coming. HOTFIX RET NERFS NOW!

Welcome to the “New Meta” just wait around until blizz comes out with balance changes and play whatever is broken.

If you’re on the same screen as a Ret with wings then you deserve to lose that round.

So you just said what the problem is, multiples attacks in the same gcd, and then you say nerf everything by 10% ? lol

Just ask for Divine Arbiter/Empyrean Legacy nerf.
Also ES nerfs

Stop trying to justify this insanity… The mental gymnastics players go through to convince their spec is not broken.

RET IS BROKEN!

Just like disc was at the start of the last tuning.

Stop the gaslighting

History repeats itself you know

it’s a major failure by the ptr testers. either they were ret mains and didn’t want to say anything or didn’t test them at all.

so is it 20 yard range always or just on wings

And this is why I don’t care about rating lol. Enjoy the free increase in yours.

It’s actually hilarious how focused people are on just hating ret paladin no matter what state they are in. Even now after the rework it’s pretty easy to be out damaged by many many classes in PvP yet you hear no complaints about them. Cough Cough demon hunter, warlocks, ele shamans (since the beginning of the xpac been busted)… Give it a rest.

They did ret’s good by making them tankier even though the mobility is questionably worse but they are able to keep pressure now with lower cd’s. I’m still almost positive that I was doing bigger burst damage before the changes but overall it feels good and competitive with other classes now.

Yea have all your eggs lined up so that you can play FoTM before it gets nerfed

Ret has always been a terrible spec. It’s either way too good, or completely useless.

Because Blizzard’s QA department runs just like the US government runs the economy.
