Still nothing about the Druid’s nerfs.
Shaman and Warlock sections could use some formating.
Hmm, while I agree with the change of removing Samantha during STV, I notice that Blizzard responded immediately to address Ally struggles with an NPC giving DKs. Not an ounce of relief for Horde, though, who have struggled for months and months at DMF. Just interesting to note this.
Are you kidding me? DMF isn’t a pvp event with 300 plus people every 3 hours.

They like to appease morons that appeal to their egos on social media.
It’s been an entire year. Why are you doing this to Pali now. Sham still dominating PvP and now Pali is going to be useless. You take away Human racial so horde can have them. Now you make bubble useless. Who the f*** thought this was a good idea.
Get off the horde @Zirene & @Aggrend , this is ridiculous. The most out of touch nerf I’ve ever seen.

LMAO! It’s hilarious to see reactions of people when their broken class suddenly gets balanced. You think it’s a coincidence that paladins are overrepresented in AB (average of 4-5 every game) AND are usually blowing up everyone on the leaderboard (along with Boomkins)? Yeah, that leaves 2 options: Everyone who plays paladin is a god and master of the game, or it’s a class with several crutches that is designed for absolute beginners.
You were doing insane damage with no penalty, had a 12-second full immunity WHILE being able to mount in combat and wreck people, have a stupid squire that can heal and annoy healers, can immune yourself and others from all physical damage, can dispel everything except curses, etc.
Finally, and importantly, in a world where AB is the dominant BG (because of Blizzard laziness not fixing WSG or AV), it is insanely unfair that you can hold an entire Horde team off the flag for 12+ seconds, allowing reinforcements to arrive and keep wiping us while a rotation of paladins keeps ressing and rotating bubbles to repeat the process.
Welcome to the real world.

Still no mention of the boomkin nerfs. So far there seem to be at least 5 that we know of. What else was changed that you’re not telling us.
