Which is why you see a rise in complaints about some of these newer abilities. They’re so used to hitting their spell rotation and winning that they have know idea what to do when something goes against their muscle memory.
I was able to get a fresh 60 to duelist as a meme spec, meme race, and meme covenant using a meme legendary in 2 weeks.
I am well aware most players can’t do that, but you could easily take your main into arena/RBG for 1 loot vault piece a week and conquest cap and be more geared than 229. My biggest gripe of PVP is conquest acquisition is slow, but for the lot of you that only player 1 character very casually it isn’t an issue.
Uhh, no good players have and always will adapt faster than casuals. It’s actually more like those of us who know the game react to things properly in the first place, and you all who aren’t competitive just don’t react at all, nor do you understand the interactions in PVP at a basic level. You’ve formulated an argument basically that you are an adaptive player and we read from a script, but there’s a billion things I could throw at you that would catch you off guard and I know for a fact you wouldn’t handle appropriately.
Oh I understand. So All the complaints surrounding shadow rift/Burrow pet/arcanosphere/ice wall are just low-rated players. Even though when I go to point out how easy it is to overcome these abilities I’m told that it’s a high rating issue and that I wouldn’t understand.
By all means, please tell us how to counter burrow pet as a lock. Literally all of these abilities are normal abilities not needing anything besides basic gameplay mechanics to counter.
Burrow pet is being used in conjunction with other abilities like camo and FD removing nameplates and the hunter hiding in Africa literally afk. Coil pet when it comes up? Can’t because burrow can be recast during travel time. Fear? Lol right. Shadowfury? GL timing it. AOE damage won’t pull it out either. Tried taunting it on druid, didn’t do anything.
I’ve explained this on another thread, but i’ll put it here as well.
The worm is exposed for 1.07 seconds between casts. Sure you can spam it, but there is a window. Even if it’s stealthed you can just stand in the center until it pops up, your toons natural perception will see it. The damage is laughably low. You can’t fear it and you can’t shadowfury it, there isn’t enough time and the window is hard to hit with a casting ability. But you can mortal coil it. 1.07 seconds is a big window, and I’ve taken advantage of abilities in shorter time frames.
And as for this guy
The pet is auto dismissed if you get 100 yards away. That’s still a long way, but even in this scenario you want the hunter to be afk or too far away to prevent the cap. For a hunter, it’s the easiest thing in the world. Throw an explosive trap and a flare and it takes care of itself. Druid, typhoon. Shaman, Thunderstorm. Paladin, warrior, priest, you name it… Insta stun.
As an added bonus, the worm is now in combat, which means the hunter is knocked out of camo.
The worm is most definitely not exposed for 1.07 seconds.
Logged in and checked myself. Coulda been 1.03.
If it was then in over the minute I stood there I would have been able to hit the pet with literally any of the abilities I tried to.
Psure they hotfixed it yesterday:
-
Hunter
-
Beast Mastery
- Fixed an issue that caused more pet abilities than intended to have their cooldown reduced by Kindred Beasts (PvP Talent).
-
Beast Mastery

Yup, Worm burrow now has a 14 second CD.
Edit: It also can’t be used with Roar of Sacrifice or Dash anymore.
If you want a battleground with a rating, play rated BGs.
This is seriously the dumbest thing I’ve ever read.

Another bump for you Hercx! I just find everything you write so insightful. We can’t keep your epiphanies hidden away like this. See ya superstar. “Get rekt” - Hercx
Did he steal your girlfriend or something?
Another terrible idea posted by someone hiding behind a classic character, just block classic characters from posting here it makes no sense.

I’m sure it’s easier for you to say that rather than admitting that it’s due to being a bad player, so you go ahead and chant whatever helps you feel better 
You are a one note song. Keep chanting bro. Everybody knows exactly what you’re going to post before you hit REPLY.

Pvp abilities should not be gated behind pve content like campaign. Pvp players shouldnt have to grind torghast for leggos or conduits or soulbind…now we have sockets.
Most importantly they should never have gated conquest points. Now they added scaling. Pathetic
