Shadowlands PVP is Trash

That’s the reason I’m quitting. Thanks for the fun while it lasted. Peace!

Imagine playing Ret during a season where it’s quite literally stronger than any spec in the history of wow, including S5 Blood DKs, and you’re like “No! I don’t WANT free titles and mounts! I’m going HOME!”

Imagine being so situationally inept that you don’t realize the OP is posting from a WoW Classic Paladin.

Bro, he could post on a goddam Diablo 3 paladin and I’d still call him a fotm Ret. Hell they could prolly 1 shot people with a hammer cross-genre at this point. They’re that over the top.

Diablo 3 doesn’t have Paladin as a class.

I am close to joining you. This 2-3 shot meta crap is not for me. I didn’t like long battles, but holy crap being deleted in 2 seconds isn’t fun either. Blizzard needs to ACTIVELY balance, I am talking hotfixes EVERY DAY. This expansion has potential, but maybe they want it to fail.

I already unsubbed. The only reason I came back was because I was told you can get all the PVP gear you need for arena/BGs from doing just PVP (thanks to the pvp vendors). That was obviously not the case, and throw on top of it this meta of tunneling a target and smashing all your CDs right off the bat, no thanks.

Whats a 3 shot meta?

I understand not wanting to be 1 shot. But 3 shots, you have had plenty of time to do something about…

WOW just caught up to everyone else.

Wow has had this Slow TTK wheelchair PVP and its been getting worse, go to any other game, and its as fast or pretty close to as fast as current wow.

Maybe its time to retire your keyboard an realize your getting too old, and slow for video games?

I dont mean that as an Insult, Im 34, my days are numbered too. However my point is, if you think you will leave wow to some other PVP game, for a “slowdown” Meta, your in for a Rude Awakening.

Shadowfrost IT spam didn’t even come until the later seasons of Wrath you derp.

it’s almost like i said shadowfrost and unholy

Even 3 shots is too much, especially with stuns involved.

I agree with him, the fast meta sucks. I’m 45 and my twitch gaming reflexes are perfectly fine.

If I wanted a super fast meta I’d go play Fortnite. I prefer a more calculated gameplay that doesn’t involved getting cool down dumped on while chain stunned. That is just poor game play that mouth breathers enjoy.

You are officially dubbed the absolute goon of the arena forums. Congrats, you took the crown away from Unafraid. :>

The problem is the vast majority wants a super fast meta.

Just like they want it (and have it) in every other game.

Like I said, sounds like its time to retire your KB friend.

I’m not going anywhere.

It will change, it always does. The majority aren’t happy with it, and it will get toned down.

Ret Pally’s and Boomkins are next

The majority is happy with it.

Not only is everyone I know and see in game happy with it.

Ion just said in that interview, that the majority are happy, and so is the team, and that it won’t be changing.
