Yes and they were class specific. The container doesn’t change the content. That’s a new paladin ability however how you want to package it.
As others pointed out, new abilities aren’t necessarily a good thing. If that’s a metric then over time you just get completely bloated and that’s a worse situation by all account.
The problem is not the lack of new abilities but the complete refusal to fix existing problems.
- Low mobility
- Lacking defensive
Now coming into DF they decided to ignore those and just put all their eggs into making consecration a thing while everything in their game requires to constantly move mobs, effectively introducing more frustration into Ret gameplay rather than alleviating it.
They could have avoided that by making consecration follow you, which would have then added a bit a value to the useless talent that prevents you from being slowed below 80%.
In everything they did they seemed to just fall short of good ideas, which again is just increasingly frustrating.
