Remove Shroud from the game

Community General Discussion

It has no lore reason to exist and no gameplay reason to exist except in m+

And it is way too OP in m+ beyond any marginal dps difference it enables routes otherwise not possible without shroud or invis pot alone.

It solidifies rogue spots in m+ every season over any other melee unless the other melee are doing broken amounts of dmg ( windwalker )

Rogue don’t need to have all of the following

  • Unlimited stops
  • Highiest Single Target and funnel dmg in the game
  • Decent aoe dmg
  • SOOTHE
  • SHROUD

Remove shroud from the game. Also remove soothe from shiv.

I actually agree with this.

Especially if Blizzard’s design concept to compensate for Rogues having shroud is by limiting their M+ damage.

#uncapbladeflurry please.

Isn’t that the point of Shroud?

‘Oh no, an alternative route to the standard route everyone else takes! Nerf it!’

Really?

Remove both invis pots and shroud from the game. Actually disable all consumables in M+ like arena.

Contrary to popular belief, some classes are different than others.

Shocking, I know.

Incoming people who have no idea of the dynamics inside Mythic+ giving their two cents. I agree

You going to cry about Ret Paladins having Bubbles to soak mechanics? What about Hunter’s Turtle–that would seem problematic for people looking for an excuse.

Most heavy mechanics which would be immuned are placed on speific players, not as helpful as they are in raiding where most soaks can be done by anybody. The exception being HoA boss 4 because people with immunities should be popping them and soaking two lines.

Does Shroud play WoW? I thought he was some sort of FPS fella

Anyway, excluding them because he’s not in the lore is abit mean tbh

These are player specific immunities. Shroud changes the Mythic+ meta where you pretty much need to have one in your group to do a route.

I would, but I have to find the paddle boat to cross the river of salt flowing from your face.

salt is a solid at ordinary temperatures, not a liquid

Not when it’s flowing from the red, puffy eyes of a butt-hurt Demon Huntard that got passed over for a Rogue.

The real question concerning shroud is how in the world is Jaina using it in the maw intro?

That should have clued the devs in that the maw is unplayable without stealth from the very beginning.

Take an OBJECTIVE view of this for just one second here.

Blizzard has to put in development time to come up with affixes that neutralize the power of shroud. Look at the seasonal affix in 8.3, 9.2 and, even certain aspects of 9.0.

In Shadowlands, they also designed dungeons that are basically a linear line forward in order to reduce the power of shroud. This means it’s more boring for everyone else.

It doesn’t? They extend a cloak to shroud everyone near them. Sounds like something that would happen in this fantasy game. :woman_shrugging:t4:

In the past you get stunned by a rogue or what have you.
then we had trinkets then the rogue ability to use our trinkets
Then came PVP trinkets made for just PVP and stun disables a pvp ability?
stun should never disable a pvp trinket in a pvp battle ground.

What? 10 char
