For me, its Warriors, Ret Paladins, and Rogues.
As a shadow priest, if any of those classes go for me I can’t really defend myself, especially if dispersion/fear is down. Dispersion doesn’t stop stuns anyway, so I still get stun locked and perma slowed regardless. With the SW:D nerf I’m gonna be even more useless against them.
As an ele shaman, its warriors, rogues, and hunters.
I can’t hard cast a single ability against these classes.
Rogue and melee hunter have to be next on the chopping block. Their damage is absurd
lol
…
you can cope all you want and pretend your class is bad, but being able to charge in combat, infinite rage, multiple defensive CDs, permanent slows, and GREAT damage in pvp. They dominate group pvp.
This guy thinks he should win every engagement, even when his short defensives are on cooldown. Is this like 2v1?
I’m fine with melee hunter. They only seem op in STV because they can come out of the rez invisibility on top of you, otherwise in open world and BGs they can’t really get close to you.
No. Nothing should press one button and remove 60+% of your hp. They have to do nothing to accomplish this
if i press shadow word death without stacking shadow weaving, it does <1k damage. That is with 180+ Shadow spell damage. That is nowhere near 60% of a warriors health.
hardest hit iv got this phase as a warrior was a 700 slam crit on a completely unbuffed mage.
As a rogue I find this hilarious.
As if range aren’t the most oppressive classes in BGs and STV.
You’re crazy.
Dudes team is already losing, and he hasn’t realised yet.
Or completely out of position. This is the only way melee can “be oppressive” right now
This game is rock paper scissors and Spriest is supposed to die to melee focus
Melee hunter I guess even though they ever get to hit me as a mage. But when they do j def understand why people want them to be nerfed lol
I think rogue dmg could be toned down a bit especially considering rogues have way more mobility in SoD on top of their stun locks
Shaman dmg is crazy but I think Shaman is one of the classes that should have massive burst as part of its identity so it kinda gets away with it more imo
But for sure current spriest deserves the biggest nerfs… Honestly might be not enough cause DoT dmg is silly
Hey it’s another thread about how every class should be perfectly balanced and every fight should be a 50/50 toss up. What a balance nightmare that would be…
SW:D is way too powerful. Instant nuke for huge damage. Shadow is in its Jordan era.
I have always hated dots. Without a way to dispel them, they just rot with such power. Shadow being more so the culprit here. Shadow Priests were held in check in classic by the costs of the spells. No longer the case in SoD.
A) Warriors could always charge in combat. Sure, they now do it more often, but if the fight is only lasting a few seconds that’s hardly going to come up.
B) Infinite rage? What?
C) The only defensive CD a Warrior has against casters is Shield Wall, which has a 30 minute cooldown.
Sure, Warriors have Hamstring and Mortal Strike. Fun Fact: Mortal Strike was doing less damage before armour than Starsurge / SW:D, while also being costly and restricted to melee.
I’ve mostly given up on my Warrior and PvP so I don’t know how hard Starsurge / SW:D hit relative to MS at the moment, but I do know that everyone greatly overestimates how much damage MS puts out.
Melee hunters - as a feral I can’t touch them and they kill you in 2 seconds.
Shadow priests - feral can’t even got through their first shield before being dead.
Why they nerfd mangle I’ll never understand.
This. Melee hunters need to do absolutely nothing to global most things in game.
Spriest nerf is here tomorrow. Melee hunter and rogue need to be next
don’t forget when priests use their 12s CD SW:D it also does 50% damage back to them. It is incredibly impractical in a lot of situations due to our health pool being much lower than warriors anyway.
Maybe, use it as an execute as intended.
Also warriors in DPS gear have similar health to the priests with Fort i see/ group with.
Maybe you need more stam gear. Highest stam piece in the game atm is robe of the lich, are you using that for pvp?
I mean you can place 2 dots on someone and walk away then when the dots tick out they have sub 1k hp even with stam gear lol
