I’m not sure you understand how paladins global people though.
The nerf speed is kinda useless since the mechanic is to get the 6pc T1 bonus that allows us to stack 2 seals as we hit AND judge.
Everything relies on a single swing with SoC and SoM on the auto + insta Judgement of them both. If you’re lucky enough it’s a lot of crit. Same goes with a reckoning build, you stack damage till you have 5 stacks and insta auto 5 times. So the weapon speed is kinda useless there. But if you nerf those damage by 50%, then you break the whole mechanic while bubbled because it certainly won’t be enough to kill anyone.
It’s enough to limit paladins damage under bubble.
Pallies need full tier to do dmg, which means no rank gear. Theyre optimal setup has little stamina. This is why pallies arent strong. They can be when they connect, but theyre pallies that are easily kited abd blown up
Depending on whether if they are in bear form or what kind of gear they have, I can absolutely kill a druid through FR. But everyone focusing on the scenario that suits themselves.
Virgin ungeared druid vs chad 6 piece t1 paladin with Hand of Rag.
Obviously they’ll nuke them. But a beefy druid is going to outlast even some of the most potent damage.
I’d personally be okay with it. Reckoning the bread and butter. So many people just brrt and don’t think about Reckoning Pallies and just try to burn them down.
I think most pallies bubble to heal for the most part. I do anyways I guess I can’t speak for everyone on that matter.
I think if they did do that more people might be inclined to use the Malleable Shield rune. (I’d have to see what it competes with first) But I’m all for seeing some variety in how people set their classes up.
I was hoping for that more than anything in SoD but some Runes are just better than others.
Again, once every 5 min. You all act as if bubble was a permanent feature. It’s not.
So yeah paladins get to be OP for a few seconds every 5 min. I understand that total immunity isn’t a satisfying mechanic but just nerfing bubble is not gonna do it.
For real… try to stick to your target when you have no slow and a single 3 sec. sprint every 45 sec. that disappears when you sneeze. Every other tool we have is dispellable. If you haven’t learned to kite a paladin yet the issue lies with you guys.
As to the 2 globals stop acting as if it was the norm. It’s a super lucky RNG crit on PvE gear people most of the time.
no. im acting like its up nearly every encounter in ab (which 3-5 min cooldowns are if you factor in the losing team in a fight has to res/rebuff/regroup/travel back and fights generally last 3+ mins so it has plenty of time to go off cooldown).
the immunity while being capable of 2 globaling while immune is a problem. the fact that you are throwing that out is saying something.
i only suggested the 50% dr on damage done by the paladin while bubbled cause its unfair even if it is only every 5 mins.
it also may not be all the time , but it happens often enough to be a real thing and worthy of consideration.
But It’s not ! It’s 5 min man, you teamfight A LOT more once every 5 min in AB.
Again… You don’t 2 global in BG unless you hit a very squishy cloth wearer or get very lucky. Add some tank runes to your build as shaman you’ll see you won’t have any issue.
Yeah I and I get that. But we’re gonna need a way to stick to our target then. SO either a speed on judgement or a slow because bubble is the best (and only way in tf when there is a lot of dispeling) to stick to our targets.
Yes it does but if we want to be taken seriously it’s better to be accurate in the description of what we reckon is an issue in the game. I play both alliance and horde and usually all pallies burn their bubbleon the first AB fight. I know it’s not up for another 5 minutes and horde most often wins every other teamfight. How often does alliance secure BS first but looses it a couple minutes after ? Quite often.
Ret needs full tier to function which = low stam. Without rank gear paladins are melee glass cannons. They can pop people woth good RNG but they are easily kited and lack the HP pool to contend with top tier BG specs. Ret pallies are mid
