How much damage reduction is your typical non-mastery stacking lock getting from their mastery?

Either way they could also just go the super easy route and just make them take increased damage while in PvP combat. I don’t think anyone would have a problem with this.

I have never liked that solution because it is a blanket solution that always ends up catching others in the results. The blanket increased damage in PvP should have been tossed out when they tossed out Resilience.

Is it possible to tune cast times in instanced PvP separately?

I mean I get being annoyed with destro, but when I was teaching my friend how to rsham and we played aff rls the destro teams at 1600-1800 weren’t that bad to fight. Also nerfing soul leech will just gutter aff even more than it is. I’d suggest swapping fear from the shadow school to chaos school so kicking fear also locks out their chaos bolts. Or nerfing destros rng mastery swings offensive and defensively.

Also mastery is probably like 4% damage reduction with a 4% rng extra damage reduction to the spell that hits you if they don’t stack mastery. I can check when I get home though.

My Warlock has 37-38% mastery atm and it’s a 4.1% DR with up to 4.1% extra, so you can probably extrapolate from there using a geared Warlocks armory.

Making Destro take more damage flat out would be kinda harmful because those who aren’t stacking mastery to that degree would also be hurt by a change like that; something safer would just be to nerf Masterful and Expedient in PvP combat like they did with Versatile and if it’s still an issue then nerf Destro’s mastery in PvP combat.
Going off of changes they’ve made in the past, making it so that Soul Leech is only nerfed for Destro is a change that’s very possible for them to make, but knowing Blizzard they’d be lazy and blanket nerf it for Aff/Demo as well so those 2 specs would suffer.

if it’s a change that’s actually possible and they don’t want to go down the above route, they could make it so that Chaos Bolt’s cast time in PvP can’t be reduced below a certain threshold (not sure how realistic that is)

Just tried doing 2s with a friend again, nothing but Warlocks at 1800.

They just aggressively teleport to our pillar, fear us both, and then kill one of us with chaos bolts after a few minutes.

Getting really tired of this, how are you doing nothing?

Still not a peep about destro lock or fire mage tuning. Truly incredible stuff. Not even a “we are looking at…” just absolute silence.

Indirect buffs to mages, destro and rogues… nice, 3 classes that needed help the most.

Nerfs to classes that were just starting to see play like boomkin, enhance, feral, hunters, rets.

While I agree vers needs to be brought down a bit with how corruption resistance scales, you need to tune the specs that dont use vers (and use haste amps) down accordingly.

I was doing to try to get to 2.1 on my Disc priest this season, I have never tried to go higher than 1.8 before this.

Current state of the game is making me not even want to try that anymore. :\

It is simple, do you guys not understand how PvP is meant to be?

Warlock Good, PVE gear GOOD, corruption GOOD(unless you want vers to survive then it big bad). RNG VERY BIG GOOD.

This is what we call Balance.

This is a terrible change, we don’t need less versatility we need more, the meta is only as viable as it is, it because of versatility
