I’m just wondering because as of now I have yet to be able to play the game in pvp. Either my team dies so fast you cant get a heal off or I die in a global im not sure what the counter play is to rogues globaling me in a cheapshot or rets killing me in a hammer. I don’t understand what is fun about this they hype you up for the expansion and it turns out the game is just blizz giving handys to rouges and rets.

Lol. This is what people wanted, right?
First season of SL gunna be just as bad as the last season of BFA… instead of long, drawn-out games, we’ll have games so short, the queue is longer than the match 
Saw this train-wreck coming a mile away.
Enjoy.
Thanks for your time,

Nobody wanted god like healers. But you can have ineffective healing and still tone down the dps. People don’t need to be doing 10k damage with one button.

We’ve had crazy damage expansions before but healers in those expansions were also crazy.

Yeah, you can’t really heal through fat damage like that, “fat” sorry, I mean burst damage. The game has changed its pace, it is now trying to set up the WoW PvP scene as a fast paced game with zero alleviated punishments, meaning that if you stutter, or choke, misuse even just 1 major cd, you will be punished.
But of course, that doesn’t undermine the surge of untuned classes and certain capabilities within the borrowed power systems. Right now, Blizzard is banking on legendary items to close the obvious disparity between classes. Proportional nerfs should be handed to classes and specs that need them, like Retribution Paladins, Shadow Priests, covenant abilities, e.g: Mind Games.
The only way to truly find your answer…is to see if anything changes, which it can if people voice their critiques.

You’ll get a ton of people coming in here saying its fine and you’re bad if you think it’s not fine. They’re having fun playing something that’s broken or playing with something that’s broken. PVP is trash right now. The damage is out of control and classes without a reset are pretty much out of luck.

I am fine with fast paced PVP but this is just dying with no counter play at all. I can kite a rogue for 5 mins but all it takes is one cheapshot to kill me. Wars Rets and hunters all delete me before I can even do anything.

I’ve just started arena so far its fun when your not in a cc chain. I don’t know why every class needs like 3cc abilities. But I also played ow so I know blizz loves there cc.

No it’s fine. No one has a lot of vers and our hp pools are low still. Wait till mid season please. My ilvl is 184 from full PvP gear and 226 what people will end up that’s a huge amount of stats and hp.
Just out of curiosity, but what - pray tell - is the measure of a “God-like Healer?” How do we determine that status, because it seems a mite bit subjective to me. Even now, there are people claiming that Healers are unkillable in PVP, I kid you not. When is it ever good enough? When are Healers gunna be “Ineffective” enough to satisfy the endless hordes of mouth-breathing monogoloid FotM DPS rerollers?

If it was so bad and random one shots making it unplayable, the same people wouldn’t be on top of the ladder as always

It’s been fun for me so far. My brother and I were playing SP and resto Druid last night. Once we got out of playing like the 1500s and it was healer dps games it felt really good. Just my opinion though.
Take that free transfer then so I dont have to sit the que.
i agree, destruction warlocks needs a serious buff, maybe to demonic armor, more haste, more damage on chaos bolts, conflagrate, immolate and cataclysm

I mean one mans trash is another mans treasure. If playing broken classes gets you off it’s not trash and if you value pvp with counter play it kind of is trash. Blizzard said after classics success they learned you gotta put the r back in the rpg and that means 1 shots and gimmick items as far as the eye can see or something
Rets were hard nerfed, they suck easy to kite and see burst coming from a mile away… rogues are broken
Damage is very high right now but more than anything people are being punished in ways we haven’t experienced in about 10 years.
There are a lot of people, myself included, who have gotten ratings they probably didn’t deserve because the game has been slow and very forgiving for the last decade.
