With the 15sec reduction node being added, we can now spam Repentance. GG

Difference is mages have 3 spell schools to get lockout and dont care over us having one.

If a Ret is silenced from an inturupt they almost certainly would die in a BG before the 11.5 changes go live. Searing Glare, casted FoL and Repentance are very dangerous to cast.
While playing Ret I’d rather have Repentance have a 45 second CD but be instant cast.

I disagree actually, depending on the situation and length of the silence.
Getting kicked at 10-20% is certain death for most people.

Understandable, but in the mages defence, at least a Frost Mage - if you kick them, they won’t be able to ice block or any other major defensive.
We have to understand that getting kicked at 10-20% is going to result in you likely dying. Especially Paladin, this is why I encourage y’all to learn how to juke and follow OmniCC or w.e before casting because you’re not a Hpal, you really ain’t used to casting spells like that real talk and if you are, you should know better than to get kicked and die.
Maybe conc aura will be more attractive then
A mage gets kicked on frost he blinks alters. Gets kicked on poly he iceblocks. Msges also have shimmer. A ret spamming rep would be the worst version of a cc spammer spec. Ret is not mage, ret doesnt have shimmer and 3 schools to bait kicks. Ret is not feral, doesnt have two on demmand stuns , base movement speed and shapeshifting to remove snares. Ret is literally the worst spec to become a cc spammer.
I hope you find “fun” that gsmeplay loop of fishing kicks as thr slowest spec in the game. I hipe you have your precog ready because that is whats gonns come if the rep cd reduction goes live
I personally find it very weird to turn ret into a cc spammer and would harm the spec more than help

Maybe Hpall is or will be after 11.5 buffs, durable to not die in a stun they cant remove or while silenced.
Ret, just dies. 10% wall, SoV pops as fast as it is casted, Blessing of Spellwarding wards 0 spells that are magical CC, Blessings and Divine Shield are dispelled or stolen 2 seconds after they are casted. Ret has one stun that is dispelled and the rest of its CC seems to activly help enemys win when used, Rets dispell was removed from the game about a year ago along with its damage. Its got no instant mobility, MS, Disarm, knockback, invisibility, looooow self healing, way worse than my MM in every way because nearly every ability and passive talent has PVP specific nerfs along with its 50%-80% pvp talent nerfs. So what is Rets purpose? If someone has not asked for Ret buffs regardless of what spec they play in pvp, they are part of the problem and dont care about spec balance.
