Season of Mastery 2 Paladin changes

the class is already agreeable
honestly, if anything, the alliance has too many dang paladins :expressionless:

There’s no way you played a paladin and can say it’s in a good state you’re just probably mad when you had to PvP against them

And if the class was actually agreeable why don’t we see more ret or prot paladins around why do they always have to be healers :thinking:

lmfao. Not agreeable. You try to do anything as ret or prot you wont get an invite. PVP or PVE. Just dont say anything about SOM and worry about era or a fresh classic wow.

Guy has no idea what he is talking about. Only response is… ā€œGo play retailā€. Bro rets on retail have a million abilities now hahahaha. Asking for one thing means you are a retail ret. Such a retard

100%, and prot is only used for building reckoning stacks for pvp, prot is even bad for leveling in dungeons. Ret works fairly well lvling and around lvl 50-60 it hits a wall.

I’ll say it again small tweaks that won’t be game breaking to ret and prot. It becomes a very nice class to play. To go along with this reduce the healing of paladins.

Or do as you say ā€œ no changes ā€œ. Ok then no debuff for divine protection, bop. They could be used back to back when the game was live. I fought many paladins in stv and they were nearly impossible to kill. Let’s do no changes.

If you think the game design is bad in vanilla why even play it? You want ret buffed so it’s damage is mid tier, what effects do you think that would have on PvP? Rets survivability is already insane in vanilla, now you want to buff their dmg too? How about ele shaman? Shadow priest? 2 other beasts in PvP, you want to buff them too? Unkillable rets deleting people and elemental shamans never going oom so they can continue to one shot everyone they target.

The game isnt an esport. You said yourself, you played ret in vanilla, so why does it need to be changed? You can still get a raid spot as ret, so what is the purpose of buffing ret? So you can show your parents your position on the damage meters and get a pat on the back? Vanilla is already the best version of wow and people want to play vanilla, they don’t want to play vanilla dragonflight where every class is identical and if they’re not they get tuned again until eventually they are all the same.

Leave class balancing out of vanilla, go on play dragonflight if you feel the need to be an esportsman in a 15 year old non competitive game.

That’s a laughable response any good mage can own a ret pali all day every day. Even if you buffed a ret pali.

Trolling with pat on my back from mommy? Come on you’re better than that.

Absolutely buff hybrids to be mid to low dmg tier.

We’re not even talking about buffing their survivability just adding crusader strike and the necessary mana sustain talents

Your response is that the best kiting class in the game can kill one of the least mobile? You realise there’s more than 2 classes right? Again, stop trying to make vanilla an esport. It wasn’t 18 years ago, it still isn’t now.

You played ret in vanilla. Ret is playable. Play it again, or play a different game if your enjoyment of it is solely tied to your position on a graph. You can get the dopamine hit you require in dragonflight of seeing your name higher than someone else’s name on a graph.

And you don’t see how not going oom and being able to do more damage isn’t going to increase their survivability? Enemy dies faster = less dmg taken. More mana sustain =keeping yourself alive for longer.

PvP I’m classic is busted and nothing is gonna suddenly fix you not getting one shotted I’m talking about the pve changes so you can be what you want and not feel like you are lucky that your guild brought you along

well are you gonna nerf their survivability? because that’s what you should do if you’re gonna buff their damage.

see, you’re opening a pandora’s box here that should remain closed.

PvP in classic is very rock paper scissors. You haven’t even thought of how buffing memes would have huge impacts on it because all you see is a greedy dream of ret being on top of the meters regardless of how it impacts the game negatively.

By your logic class imbalance is what classic is about. So wait PvP has to be balanced? Or does pve only have to imbalanced. You lost me.

Your logic is flawed

No one said top of the meters….just another lie.

Again portraying the box meta ā€œ memeā€ spec cool

If you guys are really gonna cry about divine shield then let’s give warriors shattering throw I always loved it so there let them have that one of the most popular classes to be able to shatter their divine bubble and ice block now be quiet about it I’m here talking about pve these changes won’t really affect PvP in the way you guys think because guess what you haven’t played this class even from hearing the mage say that our class isn’t mobile even tho we have a 4 sec down time on blessing of freedom just goes to show you don’t know what you’re talking about

Put pallies unchanged like you say

There would literally be no forebearance. You could almost BoP, or bubble all day for months after vanilla launch. Then yes keep the damage the same and remove forebearance debuff to its vanilla state.

Just adding crusader strike, taunt and better mana sustain isn’t gonna change the way you play the game this isn’t gonna suddenly replace all the warriors in your raid group to paladins this would just make them feel smoother and deal ā€œDECENTā€ dps they won’t become the best
