Some mythic fights you have to have an instant gap closer for. There’s a reason why people don’t bring Paladins to mythic Razageth, our class literally can’t deal with the knockback.
Paladins while not having gap closers, are almost impossible to slow, stun, or delay.
You can have Charge and Heroic Leap, you just have to also be able to be snared afterwards and left in the middle of the arena to die immediately to any/all casters.
You want a Warrior’s tool kit, then you have to also be easily killed the same way.
Heroic Leap isn’t a gap closer, it’s an escape tool. Warriors can’t just run out in the middle of the open and pop a full immunity while doing it. Nor can they full heal themselves with an instant.
Oh, and lets take away any of your ranged melee abilities while we’re at it too. If you have a closer, you don’t need to have all these 30 yard nukes.
Then u don’t have to worry about them don’t cha…
But you forget you got DAx2 which is a better freedom and wraith???
Lol try again
This is absolute unity.
Dude is clueless.
Yeah, DG is on GCD are you freaking out of your mind?
You should stop posting after what you just said “DG is not on GCD” lmao.
Except death grip isn’t on the gcd and never has… Unless they changed it for DF
Wings of Liberty sounds like a great name for an expansion sub-title. HMMMMMMM
What are Death’s Advance and Wraith Walk for 500, Alex?
Death Grip is on the GCD but only incurs a partial GCD when used. So no.
Lol impossible to slow or stun???
What???
I think you’re confusing us with DK, who has a gap closer…
I think it’s cool.
I just hope it looks as cool as it sounds. I don’t even play a paladin – there is just something cool about a paladin descending from the sky to throw down some retribution.
Also everytime they do it, I’m gonna think “NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION” everytime they land near someone and it’s going to make me giggle.
Even in Diablo Paladins get some pretty cool mobility that lets them leap around a bit. I think it makes sense, and I’m happy for Paladins.
Since when? I could have sworn it wasnt
I think it changed either BFA or Shadowlands. It no longer is off-global, but it only incurs fraction of standard GCD when used.
DKs also don’t have a full shield and self heal.
And DKs are quite a lot easier to control than a Paladin with full immunity.
If a DK can’t be snared, they can be disarmed or stunned. Paladins become immune to all.
I see,
Well regardless I’d rather have an instant gap closer in the gcd that not have one at all
Current season / tier you don’t need that mobility but are we just going to create a situation where possibly next season/tier DKs will be on a wheelchair tanking simply because all other tanks have mobility except them?
First is not that fast AND it is not BETTER freedom simply because you can still be slowed while in DA just not beyond 100% speed so lmao.
Wraith, yeah, for a DPS class is viable.
You’re simply ignorant and clueless. Stop posting. You’re embarrassing yourself. Get informed before discussing something.
Thanks for confirming. Also, nothing really worth after BUT is said.
Lol dude this ain’t vanilla.
Bubble is a joke. It’s easily countered.
Again even blizzard acknowledged that ret death stats are too high…
My only hope is that wings of liberty comes at GREATER cost and something really good must be set aside so they can pick it.
Otherwise it is just nuts.
Full shield? What on earth is a “full shield” in the context of this conversation?
Paladins become immune to all for an entire 8 seconds or whatever current bubble duration is, then can basically be forced to sit down and take it until bubble is back.
… So you’re saying that Death Grip only incurring a partial GCD bears no relevance, specifically just so you can talk crap to me? Jeez, how rude.
That’s because you only have bubble…
But you’re not asking for more defense, you’re wanting to be able to gap close like everyone else, while also still having bubble and a full heal unlike everyone else…
Oh, and 30 yard range attacks on a plate wearer… Not just one, but multple… you’re no melee…
It’s okay, nobody’s really that irritated about your forum babyraging. Blizzard has acknowledged Retribution has a lot of issues that need to be dealt with in the mobility and survivability departments. I think I’ll take Blizzard’s opinion of Retribution and Paladin over yours.
I’d trade my crappy “gap closer” Feral Lunge for Divine Shield any day.
