Unnerf Soar Reminder

Pass. Keep it nerfed.

Thatā€™s not live thus its not in game. Itā€™s available for testing.

And itā€™s available for testing so people can give feedback before it makes it to the live game. Which they are doing.

So, like, but why?

Balance.

No race should have an advantage over the other in the old world, even if you feel it is outdated content.

Even for traveling.

There was no reason to nerf it. It was tested. Nothing was wrong with it. Stop defending stupid crap

You will live.

Itā€™s not balance. Itā€™s not needed. Nothing wrong with how it was. Oh no, you get to a battle master faster! So broken!

It will be reverted anyway. Itā€™s just stupid that they did it to begin with.

Iā€™d wage a token it doesnā€™t get reverted to pre-nerf levels.

What about one race having an advantage over another in current content with player power attached? Such as Worgen being able to use Running Wild when no other race could mount in the Maw? Or humans having a permanent 10% advantage in progressing every new (as well as old) reputation, many of which have significant power gains gated behind them? Or orcs having the single best racial for competitive PvP by ten thousand miles?

And if you want to talk about travelā€“what about the travel advantage given by Dark Ironsā€™ mole machine? How is Soar so much better that it needs to be nerfed but mole machine is fine?

So what youā€™re telling me, is that all those racials are okay and balanced, but me being able to get across Kalimdor with slightly faster flying once every 5 minutes outside of combat and instances IF I am able to position myself correctly at takeoff and carefully manage my secondary cooldowns is not?

Iā€™ll say it again: You cannot possibly be serious.

Get in line behind the three class still looking for their alpha DF talent builds :slight_smile:

I lived with Covenant Energy, too. But the game very nearly did not.

Stop justifying their bad decisions, even if they seem minor to you. They are symptoms of the bigger problem.

This is not an issue. abilities not functioning correctly in fated raids are. This is so minor and you are still faster. It just reeks of entitlement when you ainā€™t entitled to goat cheese.

And the rumor is that the Alpha is almost over. I guess they donā€™t want to give monks and DHs much time to complain

Oh god, if that is true it will not go well for the three remaining classesā€¦

They are both issues. Yes, the fated raids are more urgent, Iā€™ll give you that. But I doubt itā€™s the same people working on both.

Itā€™s not entitlement. It is feedback during a testing period about a change that people donā€™t like. That is what the testing periods are for. And again, you are right: it IS minor.

But it is a symptom of a bigger issue: Blizzard is willing to nerf a minor ability that people were having fun with to make it less fun for silly reasons, but they havenā€™t finished the talent trees and, as you stated, abilities in the Fated raids donā€™t work right.

Their priority is a to make a fun ability less fun because of pet battle balance, while meanwhile other more serious imbalances are just ignored.

You donā€™t see that being a problem?

Again, the problem isnā€™t the nerf itself. Itā€™s what it says about the developersā€™ philosophy and priorities, which is nothing good.

no keep the nerf, no race should be that much better than the other races.

Then please nerf hardiness, diplomacy, mole machine, running wild, and shadowmeld, all of which have given much more substantive advantages to their respective races than a flight simulator on a 5 minute cooldown.

In times like these I feel thereā€™s one simple question to determine if a nerf is warranted or not.

Will you still use it? If yes, cool. If no, why? And it better be something more than ā€œIā€™m mad.ā€

Every time blizz forces players into what they deem fun it fails every time.

Leave the flying ability unnerfed. Stop telling players how to have fun. Plenty of unfair to others racials.
