Versatility

What is the thing with it? why is the only stat that ppl in rayed PvP worrie about?

Hi walmart savers Jdro, welcome back to the forums.

It’s a straight damage buff/ dam reduction if you are fighting people with out it, if everyone stacks it then it doesn’t do anything.

Ty for your answer. But it works differently in PvP then in PvE? Because according to wowhead versatility is the 4rd stat in priority, after weapon dmg, str and crit

It works the same in both Pve and PvP, problem is DPS do not need damage reduction and more healing taken and done. So the Stat weights in pve are more DPS oriented Mastery, Haste, Crit.

This is a pve stat priority, yes. In pve you don’t generally have to worry about getting focused by everything and everyone.

In pvp versatility gains priority for the damage reduction

That, and assuming you’re geared correctly and have the trinket bonus, it also scales way better.

The PvP trinket set bonus which increases the offensive portion of versatility by 40% is only active in PvP environments.

Otherwise, the stat functions in same in PvE as it does in PvP.

If you’re looking for stat priorities, or build advice in general, you’re better off checking https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/.
WoWhead is not a good source for builds. Icy Veins might not always be 100% accurate but far more reliable than WoWhead.

Hopefully Versa gets removed from the game and we get a real PvP stat. Really hate Versa on all the vendor gear.

Why because it’s not good for you ? The game does not revolve around what is good for Abom :roll_eyes:

Vers is the top secondary stat for many specs.

I think tanks should be removed from all forms of PVP except WPVP and Epic Bgs.

Tanks have their place. As flag carriers , base sitters , stallers, support . Certainly shouldn’t be top KB’s and top healing like someone wants.

Who would tank Bosses in Epic BGs?

I disagree. I don’t actually think either side needs their FC to be a tank or base sitter. Rogues are better base sitters than tanks imho.

Remain pretty dense…

Honestly we don’t need bosses in Epic BGs just some better objectives. Tanks role is to be on the front lines dictating the battle either stopping a push or advancing. I would love to remove the Bosses in AV and have Epic fights over Towers. So we get a fun AV with 100’s of HKs.

There is no PvP without Tanks it just would be really weird to not have such an Iconic roll on the front lines protecting Dps/Healer and dishing out dmg/healing.

That just destroys the flavor of the game though. You want more specs to shine so you’re not just fighting the same old same old all the time. Gets boring ya know?

:man_facepalming:

Tanks would, weird right.

So instead of providing variety and incentivizing a niche role, we should give the said role to classes who already have a role whilst also destroying the thematic aspect?

thats lazy design that alienates a whole group of people. Personally id like to see blizzard actually put effort into pvp design to make everyone viable if not optimal as players are paying customers for an entertainment service. blizzard should be accommodating us not the other way around. . If they need to modify the playstyle of tanks im ok with that…but flat out removal i am not.
