I’m still having trouble wrapping my mind around the ego of blizzard.
We practically did their work for them. We told them 23948723 fixes in DETAIL of how it’s even possible to keep voiform as a talent/Big CD for those who like it, while giving players the old orb play-style that a LARGE MAJORITY of priest mains want back.
Instead… we get “nah we’re done. Conduits will make it better. promise lol”. And we get a devouring plague that doesn’t even make sense. In large aoe packs? Still void form. Raid boss? Still void form. Single target? Still void form. Using half your bar on a devouring plague for 2 targets just makes no sense. Of all the good ideas posted here over MONTHS, that’s what we get, and that’s what they just now DOUBLE DOWNED ON?!
I’m hanging up my hat. I don’t know if I’ll switch to a new main like afflic lock, shammy, or just unsub. It’s so sad that the “I think you do, but you don’t” mentality is still a huge thing at blizzard with class design. Priests aren’t the only one’s dealing with this. It’s not like they hate our class. it’s blizzard dev’s mentality to the player-base as a whole.
As a shadow priest of 14 years.
I like Voidform,
It is the only flavour that makes us unique from other classes.
The problem with voidform is that there is far too much ramp attached to the time spent inside voidform, which needs to be fixed.
I agree. I think making it a talent, or just a baseline large CD would be great. Like a more powerful voidform similar to surrender to madness. Where as soon as you use it, you cast void eruption and have a big dps window with void form on a boss fight. Then back to orbs outside of the large 3 min CD. That’s my perfect world. I don’t mind void form on raid bosses. I just hate it in the rest of the game.
voidform needs to become a cooldown without being driven by insanity to fix the issue of ramp/voidform feeling bad currently, and also to give shadow an actual interesting CD, because as it stands they just have shadowfiend which sucks. then put back orbs ofc
that is not true at all. Voidform orients the whole spec around Voidform while Orbs (WoD specifically) gave you different playstyle and freedom. Also, they were so much more fun(my opinion).
Hey, We’ve been asking for a baseline feather for years. We still have 2 talents in that row that have been completely unused for multiple expansions… Remeber when they added Angel’s Mercy to that row for Holy? HAHA Our specs have been garbage in M+ for a while now. They don’t care about priests man.
Yo I totally agree with you my dude, it’s mind boggling how Blizz isn’t going to change anything after all the distaste the community has shown for this Voidform shenanigans. Absolutely ridiculous.
But I also just wanted to say that the OP has a fantastic character name
Yep. But they won’t even adjust scalars to right the ship, even though it’s incredibly easy to do - whether it’s directly in the source code or some app they’ve developed to do all the balancing using GUI.
