i should mention shamans are pumping 2x the dps in the MEDIAN PERCENTILE, so you clearly have an intellectual disability.
you know, i almost never report people.
if you continue to push it, however, i will make a special christmas only exception and do so.
This is what happens when brain deads jump on an OP class. They actually think they are good at the game.
Everyone can see Xtra has no idea on actual gameplay mechanics. Except for him 
heh.
people were talking like it still happened.
i was mistaken that it got removed.
ahh well.
merry christmas.
Yeah took them a whole week to nerf it… Meanwhile shamans still the tankiest BUMs in the game for no reason. Me kill shotting shamans for 500 is OP when I get insta lava busted for 2k+ is perfectly fine tho… lmao. you know that power surge proc that never happens according to every shaman?
it either never happens or happens all the time.
seems there is no middle ground and alot of those same tank shaman are running 5pc zg set which bumps up the proc chance from 5% to 10% per tick.
btw ive said many times now i agree that tank specs (most importantly tank shaman) need to be made not an option in pvp.
but i dont know how they do that fairly to all the tank specs without gutting them in pve.
I should add that quite literally every single Hunter that even glanced at the PTR commented on the discord and the forums about how dumb and broken the 2.5 set bonus was and they still went live with it.
I feel like Aggrend realized he gets paid as much as a McDonalds manager and is just coasting it until he gets canned at this point.
No alliance will say they would prefer taking on a shaman than a hunter. Hunter you get in their deadzone and they are weakened substantially.
Shaman you just have to run away
When you have tank rune equipped damage to player controlled characters reduced by 30%. EZ
that would be an option .
honestly they seem loathe to balance differently from pve to pvp.
i have to admit there is some pushback on it in my mind though cause its confusing for regular people to do something in pve and have it do vastly different things in pvp.
that isnt even mentioning that some of the “tank” specs arent running runes to do it and its mostly talent specs being the problem (eg warrior).
That’s exactly what they do in retail and seems to be the direction they are heading in with the T3 sets
It’s incredibly lazy and shortsighted and just leads to the game getting boring and stale in my opinion.
There needs to be some kind of middle ground like a HP reduction at least and or a defense reduction.
I don’t think any classes should be nerfed, even though Boomkins are out of control at this point and practically unbeatable.
I think a good middle ground would be being able to save your enchants and apply “resillience” type enchants to gear; but for some reason people hate resillience and I don’t understand why
But is happy with hunters tier being nerfed in PvP but not pve
It’s literally the runes that make war strong. Glad stance with phys damage increased with a shield equipped and runes resetting slams.
Again, this guy has 4000 posts and is still this bad at knowing game mechanics.
its like i said, people dont like doing “this much” damage in pve then going to pvp and doing “less than this much” damage .
also people like being able to seemlessly go from one form of content to another without penalty .
resetting slams.
thats shield slam correct?
what talent spec do you have to be for shield slam to be even able to be gotten?
its more than just the runes but if every “tank” spec warrior is using it , i do agree that you could just tack on the -30% damage done or whatever youre suggesting to it and it would serve the purpose.
but whatever.
I agree, I like when PvE gear is also relevant in PvP. I think something needs to be done about defense but the issue is wote is just so strong all around. You get more health, reduced damage taken, and reduced chance to be crit.
All tanks are annoying but shamans are just damage sponges like nothing else and rely on 0 CDs to maintain that. On top of being able to dish out high damage.
one thing they could do is just not allow power surge and way of earth to be used in combination.
just activating way of earth would disable the power surge rune.
wouldnt be a huge hit in terms of pve as most tanks dont run power surge.
it would almost certainly require a redesign of zg 5 set but bleh.
You mean shamans??
Boohoo more. Get better?
Hunters are autoshot critting for 1.5k - 2k damage against plate targets and thats about as broken as you can get since physical damage reduction is supposed to be around 50%. And you know it. No need to try to make me look stupid I am stating facts and I can prove it. Post on your main so we know who you are.

Yeah we are not… My chimeras don’t even always crit for 2k. My kill shots crit for like 1400-1500 on plate and those get an extra 800 damage ontop of my normal ranged damage.
Just because one time when you had an armor debuff and a hunter with a berserking crit for you for 1500 doesn’t mean hunters or consistently critting for that much with auto shot…
I never will cause it bothers the BUMs far too much.
