Why does everything in this game have to slow you?

Because running away is the only defensive everyone has without a cooldown.

Playing a caster into assa, uhdk and dh will answer that.

whats assassination shiv slow %? 84%? the rogue slows in particular are the worst because its passively applied, for a class that has the most control and tons of mobility for a melee.

WE LOVE 90% SLOOOOOOOWS

omg i love being so slowed even paint dries faster than me. We need more 90% perm slows

trouble every melee class has a plethora of gap closers, even with all the slows i feel sometimes melee have near 100% uptime

It’s such a strange dynamic because ranged will say it feels like melee has near 100% uptime but melee will say it feels like they have no uptime lol

I think that realistically melee do have a majority of uptime. It just feels really bad when they DONT have it. Nothing is worse than playing a warrior and ending up stuck in the middle of tolviron with no mobility just getting blasted. Even if you’re okay, it makes you want to alt+f4.

That being said, playing any caster into fury war+dk is similarly terrible as you’re fighting for your life vs permanent slows/grips/charges, kicks, reflect, ams, bladestorm, dark sim, etc.

Bonus points if it’s an rsham healer for ANOTHER kick and grounding XD

Negativity bias rears its ugly head.

Humans give more weight to negative events than to positive ones.

We readily remember those negative events and often forget positive events, so it makes us feel that the negative events happen more often.
