Smoke bomb should have been baseline long ago. Should never have left the Rogues kit for any form of content.
Radius or duration can be altered if it is a problem in PVE.

they literally could just make smoke bomb like DHs Darkness w/e ability in pve and no one would complain. if anything you think that would be a welcomed concept? a group utility buff for the one spec thats only real group utility is stuns and blinds and sap here or there.

They could. Im just not a fan of copy pasted abilities and would still like the effect to be unique to rogues. They very well could do that though and id be satisfied.
Unless you treated Smoke Bomb in that regard like Lust; where you can use it once, but thereâs a ten-minute downtime in between for the raid. And then for a class Cap Stone, Rogues could take a talent where they can use Smoke Bomb as a personal defensive at half the CD, like Bubbles for Pallies.
If you lean into the ability as Raid-wide Utility as a deployable wall for things like boss fights, Smoke Bomb would be no different than a Battle Rez or Lust at that point.

Except players would want access to that specific effect on other classes. Blizzard would already be doubling the amount of abilities being used by bosses thatd youd wanna use Smoke Bomb on the fight for to ensure there still a challenge in fights. Itd break the game no matter how you look at it.
Another day that ends in Y.
How? It would be a once-per-pull ability like Lust is and Smoke Bomb would be more niche than a Battle Rez. It would be limited in size and it only breaks LoS.
Youâre over-thinking this.

Smoke Bomb can be made baseline again if there is the will. Look at Shroud of Concealment where it still part of the PVE kit.

Yes absolutely agree. Should be baseline. If it breaks things in PvE that much, just make it like DHâs darkness in raid/mythic. Although really I think they should be able to figure out how to get it to work.
