Time to strip all this melee mobility, strip all this instant casting, and strip the crazy healer damage

I just fixed your PvP issues. This is the worst arena season I have ever played in 17 years of WoW. I never thought I would have to be miserable in the 2v2 and 3v3 bracket because I just want to play the game with IRL friends, and the brackets are 600 MMR off. Fighting for my life in 2’s just trying to cap against Glad alts at 1200 who are playing Disc/Rogue Disc/Mage/ Healer/Warrior etc. I must be the small minority who actually want to play arena with IRL friends not Q with random people with no voice in SS but SS is so off in MMR getting 1800 for Elite gear is a joke. All of this is compounded since I’m not playing one of the ridiculous broken FOTM melee so I pretty much just get destroyed before I can press my 70 globals to start getting damage ramped up

Typically melee are unkiteable.

Casters don’t care and just turret in their face.

This is the norm outside CDs being popped

Time for you to git gud and stop crying.

its been like this for the past 12 years world of melee craft, op easy to use melee specs that basically only use 7-8 keybinds. Melee dominate in arena because of the limited space then you factor in their abilities are instant and not casted. As a caster you cann’t disarm melee

Skill issue.

Literally L2P. You have more kiting utility available to you than everyone else in the game except MAYBE frost mages. Not our fault you waste it.

Edit: oh, youre using a “posting alt”. Never put stock in anything a man says that he isnt willing to put name and reputation to.

Mages: exist.
Hunters: Tar root, freezing trap, scatter, intimidation, binding, Disengage, Turtle, Masters Call. Im probably forgetting one or two. Pick the ones you like. Most arent mutually exclusive.
Warlocks: gate. Port. Coil or SFury. Amp Exhaustion. Amp Weakness literally prevents crits for its ridiculously long duration.
Boomkin: try catching a druid as anything but a Rogue. Go ahead.
Elemental: Tstorm. Unleash Earth + Lightning Shield, Static Field. Earthgrab. Double Capacitor. Lightning Lasso that can be channeled while moving. Gust of Wind on a 20s CD.
Evokers: Bahahahahaahaahahahahahahaahah if ieven have to break this one down youre already beyond saving.

Ranged has plenty of tools to deal with anyone and everyone. As an Arms warrior you wanna know what i see all the time? You waste these “offensively” - meaning youre trying to flex or be flashy and it amounts to nothing - and then flop because i can connect and STAY CONNECTED.

Stop wasting your tools and then crying about it.

There aren’t really any bad ranged, though.

Bro if melee is unkitable just stop running and cast… like whats preventing you from casting? A 4 sec silence with a 15 sec cd from melee? Just cast and kill them if you cannot kite

It’s not hard to kite melee. Especially if your team is built properly. Frost Mage / MM Hunter / Resto Shaman or Druid is an absolute nightmare to deal with just because of the volume of on-demand mobility, knock backs, hard CC and soft CC.

Camo, Cheetah, Bursting Shot, concussive shot. In my experience MM hunter is way more annoying to deal with than BM.

I just watched one of those pro warlocks in awc get trained into the ground by melee blender. If that guy isn’t good enough to cast spells, I don’t stand a snowballs chance…

Unironically, this. Casters are harder to kill than melee. I love walking around with 70%+ slows permanently on me, while a mage can blink and root on rotation.

Also, I’m lucky to throw a couple of 50-60k crits during cooldowns, while Frost Mage is allowed to spam 200k Glacial Spikes to their heart’s content.

Lol? It takes 5 icicles that need to be to charged up a glacial spike and on average they hit for 80k… (Non exaggerated just checked my last RSS on my fully geared 2100 mage). Then it’s a 2.5 second cast…

At least make an attempt to be semi informed before you criticize.

i have been 2100 on both my elementals, 1950 on my warlock, melee are broken in pvp. the cc to cast time interupts is absolutely horrible. Blizz needs to fix that. and arms warriors. once i dropped to 1800 in solos i stopped playing casters, blizzard wont fix it. so ill play fotm and roll this the bullsh*t

The thing is that EVERY melee has an interrupt, but very few casters have a disarm.
