Radiance?

One cc chain with purges/swap to someone without any HoTs

He’s just wrong about this one, but you’re right, I’ll leave it for now :slightly_smiling_face:

Sure I guess, can get the stubbornness

TBC says hello

You’re very behind the moment you start pressing radiance at all lol, forcing a disc to radiance is giving yourself a win condition

How are you getting caught in that position at all, you’re the hardest class to CC

My guy if I’m wrong why do I know your class better than you do lol

I love when my rdruid screams “getting cc’d is a choice” over and over in like a 10 min game

And getting cc’d twice

lmao it really is, so much is just knowing when it’s optimal timing to eat any CC

Literally all of these issues are either covenant related or legendaries. A better question is can they just disable all of them in rated PvP like they did in Legion.

You guys make it seem that rdruids are just head and shoulders above every other healer right now, and that’s just not the case. Healer representation on the ladder tells a different story. There’s no excuse you can make for this (even though you’ll try to make one)

I mean ya I’d give you an argument but it won’t stick ya? So why bother

Ladder rep is the most important subject to this argument. If you claim something to be OP but it doesn’t show up on rep %, there’s a flaw somewhere in your argument. So maybe, just maybe, rdruids aren’t actually that OP when compared to other healers that are just as good

It’s just not but ok

Like me and dilly could sit here and break down the whole argument but I just don’t think you would take it and then it would be an endless back and forth

only active ladder matters, my friend.

Right? As if all those paladins and priests on the ladder are still actively playing and not sitting rating :joy:

I’m hoping Venruki focuses on systemic issues specific to PvP instead of balance or class design. It’s clear from the PvP talent “revamp” that we’re unlikely to see anymore significant changes in this regard.

I also hope he doesn’t focus on utopian “wouldn’t it be cool if” ideas.

We need a discussion around rating deflation, boosting, and gearing systems (the rate of conquest aquisition, for example), because those are the areas that could realistically change.

No we don’t and this is what I’m afraid of. Those areas are issues for people who PvP to get gear and then never come back. While they’re gone, the rest of us are sitting here dealing with the real issues regarding PvP. Essentially nothing changes. We need balancing and class changes.

While I’m glad we are getting a pvp interview my expectation is that the answers will be a combination of these two answers over and over.

Yeah, you’re not getting those. Best you can hope for is the PvP talent to be kind to your class.

I disagree with the rest of your post. Playing alts this season has been miserable for many reasons. And if you’re new to PvP, good luck. System issues are far worse than class balance for the majority of players.

I’m aware of that. I already know its just going to be about solo q, boosting, and gearing. Bad players have no idea why they’re bad and look for things to blame.

No they aren’t.

Oh, you’re one of those “git gud” people lol. Everyone I know quit because of systems. We weren’t stoked on class design and balance, but it wasn’t the main problem. It wasn’t a “git gud” issue.
