Paladin Bug: Divine Shield Fails - Still can be stun lock by elite mobs

I mean, everybody agrees with you, yet here we are :frowning:

This ZF mechanic is doubly annoying because when it engages, it takes them forever to kill you. It’s a completely pointless penalty for failing an illogical mechanic that you had no idea was there.

Anyway, you can clear ZF fine, just pull smaller. Not every dungeon does this either, just ZF and Strat Dead I think. I’m not sure if others do it too.

I think Maradon might have it as well.

Which hilariously, didn’t work. Sure it was totally quiet for a few days, but the mages figured it out anyway and were right back at it, selling SP and Slabs boosts. Just not as many of them, and I think it required teams rather than solo.
I mean I appreciate the attempts to stop paid boosting but it’s a war that will exist forever. They nerf one “unintentional use of gameplay mechanics” but people will always find another.
Except those of us just trying to play normally who are inconvenienced by it all. That’s the unfortunate part.

This tbh. The game even has a history of it. Ine instance of them doing so was in cata when they nerfed gold drops into individual personal loot.

They want us doing current dailies and content.

To be fair - I haven’t seen any boosting in wotlk. I’m sure it’s being done, but the nonstop scroll of boosting messages is gone.

it starts around ZF level and then it applies to every dungeon afterwards, even including TBC. The stun only kicks in if you’re grey in level to the mobs.

so much for farming dungeons for cloth for alts then. guess we’ll have to buy them on the AH…even though people are charging a small fortune for stacks of cloth from Linen all the way up to Frostweave.

i have a slight way of earning gold on the side, but…i’d rather not discuss it for fear that it’ll be nerfed because…well, we all know Actiblizz’s stance of things considered “fun” in WoW.

I think this is due to many classes having relatively easy solo farms/selfboosts available, and the mages probably have better gold farms as well that don’t involve the risk of advertising. BG exp is new and worthwhile too, at least for alliance in AV.

Working as intended.

Welcome to modern Blizzard. Instead of addressing the issue at it’s core, just make a generalized change that affects everyone.

inb4 someone says I’m protecting bots because I don’t fully enjoy a change that affects more than just bots.

Eh. People overreact to this change. You can still farm low level dungeons, you just can’t clear the entire dungeon in one pull. Which makes sense.

I find gripes about gold-farming methods being nerfed pretty silly. There are so many ways to make money in this game, it’s not the end of the world.

Unfortunately it’s not a bug, It’s blizzards brilliant idea for ruining the game slowly. :woman_shrugging:

I thought ret doing literal bottom dps was a bug but then realised its working as intended

You’re a pathetic and dirty person. A true stain on the underwear of humanity.

Didn’t ask

As said this is an anti-boosting mechanism they coded in. Because obviously to try and combat boosting and botting they have to screw over people who are legitimately farming.

Wow I read that and realized that there is an actual person on the other side who some how thought they’d look cool or tough posting that. Like what is wrong with you, how do you even function in society?
