That was the longest 10 weeks for Shaman…(Imagine only getting into WSG premade if they didn’t have a kitty FC.)
(Part of why I didn’t feel too awful for the first 2 weeks of P2 being an AB Raid boss, after that, I just wanted to be normalized so PvP was fun for everyone.)
start of p3 PVP was fun imo
not saying it was perfect, but it was more enjoyable for everyone than any other phase pvp I think
Eh… P3 Enhance PvP was dead.
I’ll only be enhance in the open world if I’m part of a group I can trust…it’s just been glass since the beginning of the phase.
Gotta go help my wife get prepped for a camping trip this weekend. TOUCHING GRASS!!!
Later LBWU, may the PTR being reasonable on us all.
hopefully so my dude
The Shaman can do so many things extremely well, I just find it interesting that not having a stun is so important.
It hasnt been missed at all by me yet… at all… Stuns have cooldowns and they aren’t always available and there are workarounds…
My Paladin’s build got nerfed like 5 different ways…
Lost + healing
Lost holy shock resets in AoW
Lost holy shock efficiency in AoW
Lost Hammer of Righteousness damage
Lost Excorcism resets in AoW.
Got a horse though… better be whacking that spellbook Marytr though so dont oom faster than Lava Burst after 5 stacks of Maelstrom!
Continuing the discussion from WoW Classic Season of Discovery Phase 4 PTR Development Notes - Updated 6/28/2024:
P4 PVP cooked, pack it up boys
WE GET:
5% less stats from vindicator (merged with talent), a shockadin cloak rune replacement, and a cloak rune for ret that deals a DoT that will break repentance, and 2 sec of exo reset instead of 1 (the stat reduction+AoW change appearing to be pushing fast 2h to be the meta once again)
ELE GETS:
the ability to fish for more surge procs from their instant heal rune (now not just from dotting 5 dudes!) with 0 friction (what a surprise)
oh yeah and earth shield and lightning shield are independent of each other so that’s cool too
And now LADYS AND GENTELMANS THEY GIVE TO CRING ELE INSTA LAVA PROC FROM RIPTIDE
Ty all for this season of shamans!
Wow Wow Wow
Wow…
enjoy the hour long ques boys, adios
o7
I can already see the battleground in the new phase: 10 shamans, 3 rogues, 2 hunters
Was premading AB with my guild last night (2 groups of 5 synced up). We only lost one game, and it was with 8 full-bis shamans deleting everything in sight whilst taking almost no damage. If they did take damage, they would just heal themselves back to full with no issue.
They can ground almost all CC, spam earthbind totem, cleave with flame shock, instant cast lava burst/chain lightning, interrupt on a 6 second cd, do TOP DAMAGE AND TOP HEALING at the same time. Oh, and Shamanistic rage ensures their raid will never, ever go OOM. I’m not even scratching the surface of how broken this class is.
Please nerf them into oblivion, analyze where they’re weak, and then slowly bring them back in line with everything else with calculated, well-thought out buffs. Shamans atm are pretty much the SoD version of early Wrath DKs.
People just want to see ele shams how they are in cata and TWW (caca de perro)
And I wonder why lol….
Well, here it is Wednesday, what will the developers please us with this week? I can’t wait for Overload with an 80% chance or something like that lol
Season of Shamans to continue into phase 4 and beyond. Well done devs…
Tastes like WIN.
mele didnt feel that, its still counter all mele with -6% crit and mele always in 3 yards around shaman
The idea to bind runes to a specific spec of shaman is VERY out of place compared to the rest of SOD. There’s no bind on different warrior, warlock or any other class’s runes. Stop trying to restrict shaman.
not really, there are plenty of runes with drawbacks or specific requirements
bruh try to check some priest runes and back to discuss after.
so tank rune need to be binded for parry talent in enha three, wolfes to stormstrike
