What you guys a blizz thinking exactly ? Mass dispel from priest is really more powerful by dispelling everything , the totem only remove poison … it’s should be at least 90 sec cd BIG MAX not 2 minutes , i remember last week that stupid affix actually pop up around 1min 20 sec , so 1 min 30 cd for that is a good balance …
I dont think it needed a cooldown increase at all. A good way to balance it if they were worried about the affix would have been to make it so the totem cleanses the shaman and one other person. Takes some pressure off others, and if the group plays it right the shaman can cleanse themselves and the person that really struggles with the mechanic.
But nah, lets more than double the CD instead. Thanks Blizz. Super cool. /s
Mass dispel doesn’t dispel everything, it only removes “magic” debuffs (so does nothing against Poinsons, Diseases or Curses).
That said yeah, this is Blizzard again gutting a spell because of poor dungeon design for a speciffic season, exact same as it happend to Mass Dispel.
They just needed to tune down the poinsons from like Ara Kara’s last boss, and maybe direverisfy the dispel profile for the season by turning some of the curses/poisons into diseases.
yeah pct also removes them pretty slow if were tryna get the whole group cleansed
Now be honest with me, if I looked back at your post histories, how many of you would I find singing the praises of the Mass Dispel nerf?
Literally everything you are saying in defense of PCT applies to Mass Dispel and both have been iconic parts of each class for the majority of the existence of the game.
Both nerfs are garbage and should be reverted, but Blizzard won’t because that would require them to admit they have made multiple mistakes as developers.
They should change the totem to:
Last 2 min.
Cleanse 1 character immediately, then every 8 sec, priorizing tank.
15 sec CD
