US/EU shadow priest topics burning in flames to remove crap void form.
So much good feedback why exactly it is not working, why players, streamers maining sp since release do not like void form, YET , it LIVES?..
I seriously, can not understand why Blizzard hate shadow priests that much ?
Jesus Christ, do our feedback actually matter at all? Or you do whatever hell you want just to piss us off?
I can give you list how to fix shadowpriests for SHADOWland expansion, no need to pay me.
Remove void form
Re-add in-game:
Old shadow form
Shadow orbs
Spectral guise
Devouring plague
Cascade
Blackout talent
Vampiric Embrace - passive +15% leech
There you go, fixed.
I can speak over myself, even i have bought shadowlands expansion, i probably not playing this game since my main was and is shadow priest, and i can not enjoy this game as it was prio void form crap.
Please… i want spend my time only playing shadow priest again.
They need to implement an alternate playstyle through new talents that is similar (or as close as they can get) to MoP/WoD style shadow while keeping insanity as a resource. Because the reality is, it’s not going away.
Shadow is the only dps spec for priests, a second playstyle would go miles and greatly improve the depth of the spec. Tuning-wise as long as the avg dps difference between the two playstyles is around 2-3% blizz should be in a pretty good place. Obviously there would be situations where one is better than the other and that is ok. That’s why we can switch talents.
I don’t understand why they won’t remove Voidform. they had 4 years to balance it out and they proofed they can’t. You guys know there is only one Dev team so the more time they spend on trying to balance VF is more time away from other classes that really need some attention. Until this day rogues don’t even have a bluepost. It’s not only affecting shadow priests now it’s affecting all classes. the whole community should just ask Blizz to remove VF because it’s creating a toxic environment for everyone.
the Legion version was so overpowered that’s why we ended up with BFA iteration. That just proves that VF is either going to be OP or utter trash. So why keep such work demanding system that requires to be babysat throughout every expansion taking away so much energy and time that could be spend on other specs that are suffering and game content in general.
all have at least a spec that is completely and utterly broken overpowered, or broken unusable, or straight up not even in the same game as the others.
Since BfA went live.
2 Years later we have yet to see any changes, any acknowledgement, or acceptance of these facts despite the entire player base saying so…
true but not as demanding and game impacting as VF. We scale like crazy
I’m glad we both want #removevoidform
I am looking specifically at WoD and the gameplay was nearly perfect. Yes, there absolutely needs to be some adjustment but it would be way easier than trying to balance voidform.
Again Legion VF was way to OP with mass hysteria and 1stack=%1 haste. If legion was fine why did Blizz change it in BFA?
Fun sure broken absolutely which again shows how voidform can either be fun and OP or dreadful and trash
Echoing the other comments here. I assume it’s a known issue that isn’t something they can fix in short order. It’s not a simple retrofit, you’ve got structural problems in your foundation.
I agree but you know what would quench the communities thirst for changes a simple “We realize VF doesn’t work however we are out of time for this expan next expan we will remove VF and rework the spec” I guarantee you that people will appreciate the honestly and acknowledging our feedback
It really wasn’t that great in Legion though. It really didn’t feel good until you got the extra charge Mind Blast legendary, and keep in mind that we didn’t have Mind Sear and had to dot everything in order for them to get hit by Void Eruption. The problems that Voidform have now were still the same problems it had in Legion, it was just a lot stronger at the back end because of the dagger talents and void torrent.
That sounds like rationalizing. Shadow scales well but again the spec isn’t alone in that regard.
I didn’t say that either and you know it.
Because good players made bad players look really bad. Blizzard hates it when that happens.
At the end of the day I just want shadow to be fun to play, but that doesn’t automatically mean void form must be erased to accomplish that goal, and more to the point - I do not want the spec to straight up regress to an older iteration that was never as good as some people think it was.
I doubt they’re ignoring it, but at this point it’s pretty clear that Void Form is here to stay. They’re doubling down on it instead of making it an optional talent or something.
not really it was because decent players can out DPS any other specs in miles.
I agree with you but I truly think that the only way to move the spec forward is by removing VF and reworking it. I’m willing to try a different mechanic but the VF mechanic is simply bad.
