Spriest double dots = kill you from full HP while eating lvl 45 food with Dampen Magic on

Bring back Scorpids!!

It’s literally insanity.

You don’t have access to health pots or bandages?

ya just go to your priest or paladin and have them dispel the dots!

or priest or shaman on horde side!

nvm that nobody in pvp really dispels anyone and shaman and paladins are notorious for not using anything but their pew pew.

That doesn’t mean it’s okay for one class to be horrendously broken in 1v1

Can confirm Spriest in classic is cancer in BGs. I was in an AB against 5 shadow priests and 1 disc priest that hard farmed us no matter what we did. Stepping out to a row of debuffs that stun and heal the other player(s) is insane to me. Imagine if corruption/agony were stunning and 1 tapping people. People would be raging about locks!! I am not a fan of nerfing classes because it never makes anyone happy but redesign that crap man. Bake some of that damage into casts we can interrupt and force them to have to think about it not just 1-2 next target as they melt the entire team.

Everything is balanced around you being in a 5 man at all waking moments, all people all in proximity at all times with a healer, also instantly dispelling you. Then gas lighters are saying “just carry every single potion in your bags for every situation bro!” Oh suuure.

Very cute balance.

Imagine if Serpent Sting and Immolation Trap had a ranged attack power coefficient. :joy:

and they are buffing us!!! lmao

Rogues are often considered “horrendously broken” in 1v1. Warlocks are often considered “horrendously broken” in 1v1. People even claim paladins are “horrendously broken” in 1v1.

Who becomes the arbiter of what is and is not horrendously broken in 1v1, and when do we deem it worth gutting abilities that range from “OP” to useless simply because open world 1v1 exists?

You say horrendously broken, I say working as intended. Who gets to be the judge of that?

People already raged about warlocks in Era…

Give them a means to actually hardcast them. Put a single warrior on a shadow priest with someone that has dispels for disease and the shadow priest becomes useless. Where does balance account for the power of these hard counters?

You’re not helping your case by using Warrior as an example in a thread about SoD PvP.

VP and SWP totaled in ~3200 hp yesterday when some joker put them on me in booty bay and swam away. 2 globals. From range.

Actually I am making just fine of a case. Would you care to elaborate or just try and make one liner quips and prove to me you don’t know how to PVP? Because if you think warriors are bad in PVP in SoD you’re definitely not correct.

It is a consequence of not having the 30% HP buff in the open world for PVP. In BGs I have almost 6k HP buffed. I have 3.6 when outside the BG.

I ain’t arguing about that, just pointing out that currently it is absolutely possible to 100-0 peeps with just 2 casts. The solution to that issue or even if people consider it an issue is another story.

The only thing Warriors have going for them is Mortal Strike and that is completely useless in a version of the game where you literally cannot heal through the amount of burst people are doing in BGs.

So yes, Warriors are absolutely terrible in PvP.
You wouldn’t know that anyways because you only see the game through the lens of a Shadow Priest who thinks his class is perfectly fine and balanced. Probably because you lose fights you shouldn’t be losing as a shadow priest.

And warbringer, hamstring, pummel, fear immunity. The counter to a shadow priest is dispels and melee pressure. And no one pressures as melee better than a warrior.

No they aren’t, you need to find better warriors.

I don’t even play a shadow priest in SoD, so not only are you wrong about warriors you’re also just making assumptions about other people. Do you always do this poor of a job making your arguments?

When did I ever make such a claim? Please by all means show me where I said that Shadow is perfectly balanced. In fact, I was the first to call out the nerf to SW:Death before they did it. I called it back in P1 when they first buffed SW:Death. More assumptions without the legwork. What a shocker.

Again, I don’t play shadow in SoD.

I used to 100-0 people with Pain + Devo Plague in Era. Everything is relative.

I’m not the judge jury nor executioner. As I said again - I’m just stating what happened. Boy, people got used to aggressive arguments so much they can’t even turn off their ultra instinct.

I’m not arguing with you. I haven’t said one contradictory thing to you. And I am not being aggressive. You are saying what happened, and I am relaying something else that happened to you. Where is the miscommunication?
