The devs told you they wouldn’t be focusing on pvp both for content and balance. You can’t even pvp in new Avalon. That should show u their opinion on pvp in sod

give us at least something is my main point.
But like why put any effort at all into pvp for sod? They told everyone it’s not the main focus and never will be. Those who stuck around hoping for new pvp content after that announcement on p5 are kinda silly. You got BGs and some dmg reduction changes. There ya go. Have fun basically.
They said balance during phase 1, they never said anything about neglecting content. They’re again forgetting people that PvP don’t ‘raid log’ and keep the servers active.
Anyway if this is the case I might start considering unsubbing after experincing the content and only subbing for points more is added. There’s nothing to do with your character outside one/two weekly raids anymore.

Actually Lies, they blatantly nerf classes (except Shamans and Boomkins) SPECIFICALLY cause people complain about them in PvP.
Tell me what the PvE reason is to change Divine shield so paladins deal 50% less damage when Divine Shield is used.
This was because paladins would bubble pull mobs and do lots of damage through abilities. Since non of the aoe abilities were affected by slower swing speed it got changed to damage to make the tradeoff of just bubbling into a pact wasn’t as effective. It was nerfed for pve not because some people cried about bubble in AB.
Wrong!
It was changed cause people said paladins were running into piles of people in PvP, bubbling, and then clearing an entire team(which shouldn’t happen if you have any kind of healer on your team or any kind of defensive ability), It had absolutely NOTHING to do with PvE.
Tell me in what raid/dungeon you would be able to use Divine Shield to pull/AOE ANYTHING.
Paladin AoE damage is abyssmal. Divine Storm does alot of burst damage but is on a TEN SECOND cooldown, (most of the duration of Divine Shield), Consecration hits like a wet noodle EVEN with the head rune which wasn’t added until AFTER the Divine Shield change. Lastly our ONLY other AoE ability (Holy Wrath) is on a 15-30 second cooldown even with the rune/set bonus and does about 500-600 damage or about 900-1000(crit) damage (to mobs not players does about 1/3rd of this damage in PvP).
So in what situation are paladins bubble pulling mobs and AoE’ing???
Also Divine Shield drops your threat so anyone else who is helping you AoE would inevitably pull aggro and die.
All during bwl paladins would run into trash with a sword called frostguard. Since the proc did scale 1:1 with sp and could proc off abilities they were based on weapon damage. U would have like 5 paladins just bubble and run through sup room and the stairs after fire maw and nuke everything. Also divine drops threat it doesn’t make u gen 0 threat.
You’re literally coming up with this out of thin air aren’t you. You also clearly don’t understand how any of these items work cause you’ve never used them before.
Hardened Frostguard has a VERY low proc chance, I’ve used it during boosting so I KNOW. Aegis+redoubt when tanking invasion boosts enables you to constantly proc reckoning meaning i’m doing ridiculous amounts of melee strikes in a single second.
EVEN WITH ALL THAT, Frostguard doesn’t proc more than once every 5-10 seconds if even that much. So a paladin who is sharing mobs with other paladins AND isn’t getting 10-15 reckoning procs a second is NOT gonna proc the weapon enough to do a significant amount of damage with it. NOT TO MENTION THE REDUCED ATTACK SPEED OF THE OLD VERSION OF DIVINE SHIELD!
Also the Invasion mobs don’t hit NEARLY as hard as BWL mobs so as soon as Divine Shield drops you’ll get pummelled to death.
You actually have no idea what you’re talking about.
Speed running bwl logs are public. You can just check. You can’t even pvp in new Avalon. Sod pvp is dead and ur just coping.
I just did, I looked up the top 5 speedruns of BWL (prior to the change), None of the paladins used Hardened Frostguard anytime during any of these runs. (most these runs don’t even have more than 3 paladins atleast 1 of which usually being Prot/Holy)
Sounds like YOU coping with the fact that I caught your BS and called you out on it.
Seems typical though that people who complain about paladin would make up some B.S. to support their hate despite not knowing a single thing about how the class plays.
I have no hate on paladins lol. This thread was about why there are no major pvp content releases. You yapped about paladin bubble change. That’s zirene literally said was a nerf to pve to reduce damage paladin did to trash. Since all of rets AOE isn’t auto attacks. Your just coping that sod is made for pvp for some reason.
Making AB mark do something outside of honor would have been a nice start, there’s literally nothing to do outside of AB. Can’t even do a BM anymore.

Show me the post that says this
You’re just out here spreading misinformation.
There is a new 2h PvP sword but no clue what its source is.
Add Ranks 15-18. Each rank taking 3 weeks @ 500k per week.
No new tittles needed, just a vendor to augment PvP gear for increased Item Levels. Maybe add a mount or shiny tabard for 18, just wanna keep PvP alive for last few months of SoD.
Was in lightclub discord
so NOT an official source eh?
I feel zirene is an official source.
