Sub rogues?

I just got absolutely deleted within the course of 2 seconds. How is a sub rogue allowed to do 8k+ damage with a single echoing reprimand? as much as I love me some fast-paced gameplay, this is ridiculous. There’s little outplay potential even with a partner when rogues have that type of utility + instant one-shots. looks like I need to start levelling a rogue huh

Looks like Sub kyrian rogue needs a nerf bad than hu. Almost like a social game needs other people to have fun in it to play it.

By stacking Damage modifiers that were overlooked by an incompetent development team.

There is literally 0 counter play to kyr cov ability and drest.
You’re dead as soon as you’re cheaped.
You have players who were 1500 all season in BFA now suddenly one shotting someone and screaming THE MOVE BABY

I don’t mind rogue being dumbed down for the newbies but let’s tune these numbers a bit yeah?? @blizzard

He pulled 77k damage in the game it was laughable

Lets be real here, this happens every expansion, hell sometimes it happens 2 or 3 times in an expansion because “Changes” blizzard makes are often careless because their class development and testing priority has never been all that good.

Thus incoming lots of Glads who really aren’t capable otherwise.

They kinda already did that years ago, WoD did plenty to make rogue 100% noob friendly, and its been that way since. Look at BFA Assassination or WoD combat, these were idiot proof, and the Frost DK equivalent for the rogue class. Reality we have not had to truly weigh out combo point use since 6.0, and its been easy mode since.

The existing problem is not so much the class, but a certain legendary.

The legendary is busted, although even without it sub was still doing a ridiculous amount of dmg with drest inside of a triple cheap.

True, and this poor quality design is why I was hoping we could have returned to a better state of tune. I love fast pace heart pounding PVP, but I also love a complete kit full of trickery. Some say its fun to be OP, but really it’s not because you get board of it in no time. Gaining rating that way is not fun, and really its a big turn off.

Blizzard should have simply returned rogue to MoP, I personally would have preferred Wrath, but they are never giving back real talent trees so 5.4 works for me.

Reasons for 5.4, it was the most refined state of rogue play that still had a real combo point system, where you really did need to think about and set up combo point use instead of just react to the situation like is possible now.

That system was superior because it made great players shine, and gave average players like me something to work toward.

WoD IMO killed the arena community hard, too much pruning, and Legion drove the nails into the coffin. BFA buried the casket and ShadowLands is digging it back up.

I hope that Blizzard starts to actually try and balance PVP again in a fun way, rather than simply applying blanket nerfs like they have done for the past 3 expansions that have in my humble opinion ruined the game.
