Wtf is this?

Sheeped a rogue in AV, and he passively procs 2 tentacles while sheeped

Which proceed to tick for 32k each and kill me

ALL WHILE HE WAS CC’D

Now, I realize I’m not super geared, and in all honesty, the rogue probably would’ve killed me 1v1. He did outgear me quite a bit, and I’m new to mage pvp, so I would not be surprised if he won.

However, I am kind of tilted at how he won. To passively proc so much damage that you can kill someone while cc’d is ridiculous.

I’m just sitting here looking at the combat log, wondering, “Who tf thought of this, first of all? And who approved it?”

Idk, just feelsbadman :pensive:

Imagine you’re a pally.

And you’ve stunned a rogue with HoJ…

Yeah that’s basically what happened.

Rogue jumped me, I see he massively outgears me. So I sheep, blink away, 2 tentacles pop up, I try to resheep, and am dead before cast finishes

Welcome to BFA…where PVE gear smokes PVP gear in PVP and all semblance of balance has gone out the window, floated down the river into a volcano and has disintegrated into nothingness.

The powers that be have started to submit more options for corrupt pcs.
Tokens have been flying off the shelves to get these BOE T3 versions.
Once the Token quota has been met (which is very close) the nerfs will commence.

Notice how the two strongest Corruptions remain unchanged? Yw.

Pvp gear also has corrupted pieces drop.

I want to no-skill kill people with tentacles so bad. So if I get multiple tentacle gear it spawns more tentacles, it doesn’t make one ultra-powerful tentacle?

I’ll be totally honest, if I could completely skip all pve by buying a token or two once a year, or paying for an entire expansions’ sub in one go, I’d probably have a ton more fun with WoW.

Proccing those rng items though, that’s some skill. :upside_down_face:

I think the tentacles get more powerful with each piece, but how many you spawn is still random

He got lucky and spawned 2, but they each ticked for 32k and some change. So it was 65k per tick, and me with only 350k health… I died pretty quick

He didn’t kick the sheep? Didn’t garrote you to stop the blink?
Lol you might’ve won then, because that sounds like an actual bad rogue.

But yeah… corruption is f’ing stupid.

I have +75 TD on a weapon I got in a freaking lfr. It does 170k damage on the trash mobs in a dungeon. Each enemy. So if the tank has 10 around him and it procs, i just did a whopping 1.7 million without any effect or button pushing on my part. About 60-80k in bgs. My execute only does 25-35k damage. Plus it’s an aoe proc. Corruptions are the worst.

I loved the war/titan forging they had, but this is so much worse.

I kind of want TD but I feel bad about breaking CC and killing lowbies in world PvP. If only I were some kind of remorseless guardian druid.

TD sounds so great and so horrible all at the same time.

We all need to make a macro that will target the tentacles and /highfive them.

Why use Execute when you can use a ranged R3 Breath of the Dying ranged Lazer that hits for 35-200k. Completely ruins class fantasy. :man_shrugging:

He did garrote in the opener. I dragons breathed him into a sheep

Then I blinked away cuz rogue slows, walked as far as I could, and was trying to resheep so I could blink further away, and mount/run. But I died before the cast could finish.

Even if I did get the resheep, tentacles woulda killed me anyway

Just sucks to lose a 1v1 to piece of armor, and not even be able to run because they’re passively proccing massive damage at you

Tbf, that rogue would have won regardless… they just saved some time for the Pally to lose the arena.

Corruption in PvP is stupid and should be disabled but one of my greatest joys is to target the tentacles and one shot them because they have 5k hp.

Yeah, not going to lie, Corruption is absurd. While I am glad that WF and TF are gone, Corruption is way out of balance in both PvE and PvP. Situations where procs are doing more damage than class abilities and things like the above happen where a CCed character’s procs can decimate the CCer is silly.

I can not wait to get out of BFA at this point.

I knew there would be one person that came in to justify this rng. :roll_eyes:

Wait, who is justifying it? Did I miss a post??? Every post I have read in here seems pretty unanimous.

How do you know the prot pal was going to lose to the sub rogue?
