Remove "Rescue" spell

Blizzard, please remove this spell “Rescue” from the game. It is causing toxic players to rush other players (especially tanks) through instances against their will - this not rescuing another player.

Some Evoker players are swooping tanks to groups of enemy mobs without any account for the tank’s cooldowns or other players. There is no need to speed rush through any dungeon unless it is a Timed Mythic. These toxic players are part of new group of players who refuse to learn their own character thoroughly but expect every other player to submit to their bad game playing style. And these players are creating a nuisance to other players by causing them to die unnecessarily in an instance.

As a Paladin tank for over 15 years, I am frankly getting tired of these types of players that seem to exploit the game just to annoy others.

I mean how is it any different from the Hunter that MDs extra pulls to the tank or the rogue that does the same? You’re complaining about toxic players the ability itself isn’t toxic. Maybe find some better people to play with or move faster?

I got to use Rescue twice in a dungeon the other night to pull in a hunter who was standing in the path of some patrols, was awesome.

Sorry OP, but that’s toxic players being toxic, not a problem with the class. Priests, hunters, and rogues all have similar make-it-the-tanks-problem abilities and just like those classes, you can vote to kick Evokers who are toxic.

What rescue really needs is a damage reduction so when we do pick people up we don’t both die because ground-fire came out while we were traveling between three locations with one click.

I mean you can pick up twin guardians for 30% absorb lol. Works great for saving dummies standing in things they shouldn’t lol.

Edit: Also op, I think it is def something they should ask if the tank wants to zoom or not. It’s what I do. If they want to take it slow that’s fine. But if they want to zoom through, then yeah I will rescue them into packs lol.

It’s almost like neural silencers aren’t a thing.

Had to rescue my tank from being knocked off a platform into lava below (ok, after I got through his cold medicine to get him to quit running away from me while I was trying to place it).

The skill has it’s uses, but like anything, a toxic player is going to tind a way to do stupid crap. Kick those guys, /ignore them and move along.

These are the people who would pull trash without the tank on a different class. Rescue isn’t the problem.

Noooo it’s fun picking up the slow dps Death Knight and plopping them near the boss though I’m just helping with their mobility issues :dracthyr_cry_animated:

Rescue is also ruining battle grounds because immature evoker players are scooping up flag/orb carriers causing them to automatically drop the flag.

Also they are pulling ally’s into mobs and leaving group causing a raid wipe. This spell needs to be re worked asap.

Neural silencer exists

Sounds to me like you need to stop stalling as a tank and hurry up.

Please don’t use these if possible. Rescue is also an enormous mitigation button for preservation (30% shield for both the Evoker and the target). It’s stupid and Blizzard should not have put such an amazing heal on an ability like Rescue.

To be honest I would just love to see Rescue changed because I just hate using the dang ability. I feel bad for having to utilize it to reposition allies because it messes with their head.

Also, it is so weird to use.

Its a great ability. Not sure what else to say

There are too many times people stand in front of the worm frontal in Shadowmoon Burial Grounds. Its quicker for me to just fly down and get them rather than slowly making their way back up.
