PvP consistency

Continuing the discussion from Ghosts of K’aresh Development Notes:

@Linxy

Developers’ notes: We are looking at the status of tanks in PvP, particularly in the battleground format, with the goal of increasing the viability of the underrepresented specializations as well as increase their incentive to flag carry in general. We would like the intuitive choice of having a tank carry the flag to be generally correct and viable if they are present in a match. We are also making a global change to Focused Assault and Brutal Assault with the goal of reducing the one-shot possibilities and movement speed punishment at high stacks while making damage feel stickier by reducing healing taken.

The first change if they want tanks to be utilized more and let the underrepresented classes shine they need to fully commit to making it more balanced regarding movement abilities at 6 stacks.

The sheer number of abilities that get reduced at 6 stacks for the literal under performing classes is night and day when you look at the top picks

The fact that they removed monk teleport while warlocks keep the ability to teleport with the flag is insane. The MW teleport while stunned is agreeably overpowered but WW and Brew both suffer heavily while having no access to that talent. If blizzard wants to bring everyone in line with each other for balance that requires bringing certains specs up from the grave

Blizz needs to make a choice:

1. Significantly improve tank mobility in crossing the map and while holding (e.g. allow Prot Warriors to use Heroic Leap AND Dragon Charge)

• OR -

2. Nerf mobility/teleports for ALL classes when holding the flag, including crossing the map which is largely the largest impact

I don’t care which, but addressing this issue requires a focused approach.

Yep 100% its gotta be everything or nothing.

Its currently 80% for the popular specs and 20% for the lower performers

Going to put up that the removal of zen med also removes another PvP talent for brew that is still on PTR
