Cool ,cool can you while you are at it buff marksman hunter damage by 1.5-2% :wink:

WoW!!! Such a robust change when the cause of their massive overperformance is the TALENTS.

I don’t give an aerial rodentia hindquarters what they do to ret in PvP, but just leave the PvE numbers alone. My main has always been a ret and we’ve been a crap spec forever. We we all know baby Ion was traumatized by a ret somewhere in his past and we’ve taken it in the shorts since he became Daddy Blizz. Just give us a few moments in the sun, before we go back to last 10% in 10.1. :see_no_evil::hear_no_evil::speak_no_evil:

Well that was fun, all anyone could talk about before server reset is the ret nerf.

Because their damage isn’t overly superior in PVE.
It’s a notch to high which is why they are taking it a notch down.

If you’re talking in PVP then you’re barking up the wrong tree.
If their target was PVP with those nerfs they would have done them in PVP only as they usually do.

Everyone complains about ret in PvP. Blizz solution Is to put the class as a whole back at the bottom

Let me get this straight, we are taking servers down for an hour in order to apply a 3% damage reduction to a single class. And why couldn’t this wait until maintenance day next week?

Oh boohoo a warrior isn’t PvP meta for 3 seconds. Relax Ret sits in irrelevance for years. So much so that in previous seasons you could straight up ignore the Ret paladin because their damage was just not worth looking at. So sit down be a good little girl and let another class be relevant for a time.

It really is heartbreaking watching whats been done over the years Ret. You finally act like its time for a change, only to stomp them into the dirt. You’re making them worse then they already were. Why is it that the same few specs dominate the brackets season after season and awc after awc. I wish they would fire the entire department and start over. You guys are killing this game. Horrible. Ret needs improvements not nerfs.

Occurred to me today the irony of this given you’re actually hiding yourself.

Nerf the pink guys!! ALso, if you feel the need to hide your chars, you’re afraid of someone finding out something.

It’s funny how someone can blast someone else when they literally have their profile hidden. ohhh the irony.

Attempt to blast*

Him stating that I bought a carry off my literal push group when I have the highest IO of the 5 of us is actual pure comedy.

It’s good stuff though right? My link is broken on my armory, which is an indication of a server transfer. An update I openly shared when they decided to attack my background instead of leveraging facts.

Yeah makes no sense to me why nerf them in pve, does it really affect anyone if their overperforming a bit. I suppose it could hurt LFG mythics if people want a ret but i don’t think they’re at the status.

PvP its a completely different story, because it’s directly affecting other peoples desire to play the game. Other dps doesn’t want to queue, healers don’t want to queue for 3-3 games, healers not wanting to queue extends SS queue time…just not a lot of positives about it for the pvp community as a whole.

Ret aside blizz needs to look at rsham, probably the easiest best healer to play right now by a large margin. Fist weaver probably also needs an adjustment but I feel like its more a ret being strong and prevelant thing than a monk thing, since fw hasn’t really changed.

I mean, it’s pretty clear they’re just here to rile up people through lies and deceit. They claim to be blocking people but I can’t find a single block option and last I see, it’s still on the “to do” list for the forums. Granted that’s such a minor thing but if you’re going to lie about such a simple thing…

Also the fact that ya know, they haven’t presented a single piece of evidence outside of attacking people instead.

Yeah it’s amazing how unhealthy some of these people act.

Oh nice a 25% damage nerf, oh wait that was enh shamans, my bad.

Wish Shamans got to run around and enjoy their power like all the rets that shot up in solo shuffle like rockets and got their gladiators, must be nice.

Maybe one day blizzard will learn that balancing Ret around being a high burst and short cooldown spec just doesn’t work and only leads to issues. They are either too strong or too weak and the middle ground is never found during PTR’s because the Dev’s never listen to feedback. The same can be said for other specs too that they try to make function in a similar power style.

I find it hilarious all the PVP clowns in here not knowing why Ret is actually killing them. They are comical in thinking that it’s somehow Avenging Wrath, you aren’t dying to 15% damage and crit. You are dying being hit with basically 3 finishers at once in Final Verdict + Divine Arbiter + Divine Storm, that’s what you should be calling for nerfs on, and in PVP only.
