Retribution
-
Crusader Strike damage increased by 40%.
-
Blade of Justice damage increased by 25%.
-
Final Reckoning damage increased by 15%.
-
Shield of Vengeance’s cooldown reduced to 90 seconds (was 120 seconds).
+40% of a penny is nothing. the blades of justice buff is noticeable but not game-changing because ret’s survivability and mobility is terrible. ret’s dmg is mostly this:
- judgment
- multi-target judgments from divine toll regular talent
- x3 single-target judgments + from divine toll’s extra talent
- regular judgments
- radiant decree amplified by reckoning’s amplification (nerfed in pvp unless it was reverted)
- justicar’s vengeance (replaces templar’s verdict in holy spender cuz of the passive healing)
- lawbringer (judgment-triggered pvp talent)
- infurious vengeance (the crafted helm thorns dmg… lol)
- blades of justice spam
- final reckoning (instant dmg is buffed, not the amplification); higher only if multiple players are tagged
- crusader strike
nowhere in the patchnotes says anything about the top 4 abilities which make up for a huge amount of ret’s dmg. the buffs were mainly in the tiny part of it. ppl are deflecting because their specs cant cheese oneshot anymore after the hardnerfs (pikaboo cant solo carry oneshot with assass rogue anymore).

When people have to make cope posts like this and feel they have to defend a spec, chances are it has something that’s over-tuned.
In this case Rets top end damage is too high.

has nothing to do with the patch though. it was for pve sustained damage. nobody is crying about rets damage outside wings except for rets themselves.

ret only does high dmg when they connect which usually doesn’t happen. good players easily counter port and cc ret’s burst

has less to do with the buffs and more to do with the nerfs to demo/sp and rets getting 2pc
ret has always been a monstrous powerhouse of downy damage
all of these things piling up on top of minor buffs just accentuate it

This is too much cope post dude.
judgement and final reck are 30 yards
decree range is not listed online. it sure doesn’t look like it’s limited to melee range in the clips though

No we can still complain about druids. We whinin about resto being broken, or feral being broken?
lul, i swear, no words will every make anyone happy.
RET is currently the juggernaut people wanted DK dps specs to be, and now that there is one, people are complaining. Ret is easily shut down so I don’t understand it. You mean you’re dueling the character with massive golden wings? How about pop a defensive and run. He CERTAINLY can’t catch you.

I’m salty about resto Druids just because they’re the only healer I face in solo shuffle.
Feral just straight up busted
I’m about tired of resto druids. I jokingly tried to see if I could soft-kill a 314k hp RDruid at the titan relic WQ today, with my 1800 rated 418 ilvl Assass Rogue today.
I could not. He walked away from me after about 15 minutes of just jokingly trying to kill him without using deathmark/shiv/etc since he’s 40 ilvls under me. Started the race WQ, auto mounted, and flew away.
Could not stop laughing irl. RDruid is such a circus atm. Wayyyyyyy too much survival
