Makes sense for Blizz to only nerf rogue, when Rets, druid, priests, war were also way too strong. Too many casuals dying to rogue brought unnecessary gutting. Cool blizz killing the game.
Globaling tanks in one stun cycle is normal gameplay ? The record was 0.4 secs against one monk

Yeah, because being able to kill someone within a cheap shot was balanced.

Disclaimer: I’m maximally certain this is a bait thread.
To give this the benefit of the doubt, of course a rogue main is going to complain about a rogue nerf when they’ve reaped the ridiculous benefits and got too comfortable doing so. Half the people in this game don’t even know how to get a trinket, and because of the “two-step goodbye” combat system we currently have, rogues can just blast anything in a stunlock. You’d have to be pretty willfully oblivious to pretend like you didn’t know that.
Did a Wintergrasp and got dropped by the end of a KS by a sub rogue at roughly the same ilevel as me.
Not as a tank, though. I’m sure it’s still stupid gameplay.
Seems like most of you stopped reading at the topic, not saying it wasnt unwarranted just garbage that other busted pvp classes didnt get touched. IE: arms war, shadow priest, ret pally, bal druid.
Pretty sure balance got a nerf. Starsurge was reduced in damage, pretty sure.
They weren’t killing you in one stun lock. Their cc and burst wasn’t remotely as potent.

shadow priest you can start shooting.
If they don’t move to MM arrow spam they hope their healer likes them.
they have to setup all there stuff on you now.
And maybe their friends come looking for you.
all this gets the S priest pressure off their intended target.
Or you get them moving and the dps drops. So does my MM hunter’s. But if all goes well their lack of support gets my people done faster to tag team the priest. Otherwise…yeah we can have 2 RDPS dancing around as we pop weaker casts that allow movement.
PVP stances vary. Mine is I will take kill off the rdps. I will also take reducing it as the plan b.
Rogue doing their thing is shutting you down, killing solo and they walk away to do more fun things after.
Every spec you listed is capable of killing someone on their own, and easily, if left alone to do whatever they want. We’re in a MoP-like situation where everybody’s kinda busted and capable of killing someone else if left alone, or uncontested.
Rogue was a huge offender though because you were 1 shotting people in cheap shots before they could respond without much forethought. All the other specs you listed cannot do that, other than ret paladin being able to 1 shot people.
All the other specs (especially spriest) are easily capable of being shot down if you kick them or stun them when they’re trying to go you. It’s not that hard to shut down a spriest or a balance druid right now.
All these classes you mention that “didn’t get touched” have all gotten pvp nerfs…
they already nerfed ret lol.

Did you just say War is strong?
Way to invalidate everything you said prior to that. War is strong…smelling. They are terribad.
