Blizzard, I ressubbed a month ago. Are you trying to send me a sign to go play New World instead ?
SCK got a 20% buff. What an absolute dumpster fire of a company this is. Even if you put out a note later that it doesn’t effect pvp, why would you ever release patch notes without saying that . YOU JUST BUFFED THE MOST BROKEN ABILITY BY 20%.
Unforgivable.
Unforgivable.
I have read your name backwards. This is unacceptable.
1.- Coming from a ret, bro, please.
2,.- Do your maths. Youre not taking in consideration the multiplier of the conduit.
To be fair, they buffed it, but reduced the number of times it stacks. So the net/net on the % increased damage is still a max of 90%.
That said, it stacks faster now…so it seems like a PvE specific change. PvP needs an aura modifier attached to the abilities / procs that buff SCK.
If they nerfed dance of chi-ji proc it’d probably be fine. That proc is needed (alongside conduits, and necro cov ability) to do the WW instadeath spin to win.
mindblown dillon
the devs are nonexistent to be fair. They’re literally sucking their thumbs when it comes to PVP balance. They’re clueless. They could literally throw darts at a nerf list and have better changes.
If a balance patch mentions spinning crane kick, the most busted thing in the game, it needs to mention a pvp nerf. This is not a free to play game. If you think this is acceptable you need to lay off the copium.
I named myself after my favorite battle pet ability, and other lewd suggestion is blasphemy.
I feel like the OP is more complaining about DoCJ specifically rather than SCK as a whole.
I share your sentiment OP. I wish they’d just remove DoCJ and replace it on the talent tree with the Xuen Azerite Power, and just buff MotC back to Legion strength.
i just started gearing my WW alt and even at 230 ilvl the dmg is a little suspect lol. I think the only thing that makes WW not just completely kyrian warrior broken is the fact that they can still be killed pretty easily.
I’m always in a constant state of worry tho bc the 2 classes/spec i chose to play this season are like top 5 candidates for a nerf.
I have a good idea how to change Dance of Chi-Ji. Don’t have it tied to spinning crane kick. make it another celestial like Xuen but a Chi-Ji bird spawns and starts break dancing on the target and he does aoe dmg per dance move
You are the one who actually just confirmed a lewd connotation. This is not OK.
The maximum damage with this change has been nerfed by 20% rather than buffed lmao.
The change made things just more convenient and easier to stack up now
won’t it technically be better in pvp tho? how often do you get a 6 stack unless you’re fighting Demo Locks lol.
Well see it this way:
1 stack = 3% damage increase
2 stack = 6% damage increase
3 stack = 9% damage increase
4 stack = 12% damage increase
5 stack = same like old 6 stack but 20% damage decrease
6 stack = not existing due to that ^
Overall it is now much easier to get maximum stacks but at the same time the value of the maximum stacks has been nerfed due to calculated strikes conduit (adding 20% more on each stack) lost a stack.
210% maximum increase has been decreased to 190% for the sacrifice of having easier stacks and a little bit more damage on lower stacks as you can see above.
At the same time you could argue or justify even tho there is not much to justify, that these buffs do nothing since if you die to 3 stacks now you will still die to it after the patch.
Modifiers in general are a problem for this game atm.
The right attempt nerfing WW is adressing calculated strikes.
The reason you chose WW is because it’s busted atm. I’m sure in your mind it was either that or war, ret. Probably the same reason you’re playing bm. If BM were to be gutted like dilly asked, I don’t believe you would still main hunter as sv or marks, tbh
Just because I didn’t go nuclear about it doesn’t mean I’m huffing “copium” or whatever the forum insult of the day is.
Read what I wrote in its entirety.
Blizz buffed SCK. They did it for pve based on the notes. It needs an even bigger pvp nerf now. Please don’t jump to assumptions because I put “to be fair” in my post. I’m on your side of this argument - it needs to be changed.
