Because it’s broken in its current iteration. If you do not take it you are at such an objective disadvantage that you would be worse off than everyone around you. I watched the video, i know what was said, he never called anyone bad like you are implying. He was speaking hypothetically, in the context of the environment that he plays in, that if people who raid at his level do not take this ability in it’s current form, they would be considered bad.
Seems like a non-issue for you since you don’t raid with him though.
I’ve never felt insulted by Preach, Bellular, or Az for choices I’ve made in WoW. I know Az said something like “If you’re an Alliance Priest and not a dwarf, you’re dumb”, but he wasn’t saying that as his own opinion of viewers who chose to be non-dwarf alliance priests, he was reiterating community perception.
I agree, I’m not sure why so many people take these things personally. If these guys aren’t your raid leaders or aren’t dependent on you to play a very specific way, WHICH YOU OPT INTO BY PLAYING WITH THEM, then it really has no consequence.
Everything i said was true, and nothing he did was indefensible. You took a line out of context and got so offended by it that you had to come to the forums to complain about it. The spell isn’t even live yet and you still manage to be bothered by some other players perception of it.
To be fair the disparity between covenant base abilities is pretty damn jarring.
Venthyr is like giving classes access to Heroic Leap which would be pretty huge by itself, but on top of that the Venthyr ability doesn’t appear to have the same terrain limitations that Heroic Leap has which makes it super versatile.
Gaps, y axis, aggro are all easily abusable which makes it really fun, the downside is nothing compares to it, and if you nerf it and give it those terrain limitations it loses a lot of its fun.
Personally I’m probably still going to go Night Fae on my Paladin because Blessing of Seasons seems so much more enjoyable than Ashen Hallow, I’d be pretty happy to take blink fox as a consolation.
I didn’t take anything out of context. Perhaps you need to rewatch his video.
Since clearly you’re the one that manipulated what he said to be “For him and his play style.” and not the masses.
He says right before the line in question “In the context of hardcore raiding”. He went out of his way to make this caveat for people just like you, and yet it didn’t work.
So yes, there definitely needs to be iteration on these abilities and tuning. Hence Alpha. And I think the intention of what Preach wanted to say in his video.
However, he soiled it with hyperbole and over-exaggeration.
Aldors vs Scryer was horrific. IDK how that even went live, and I agree, this is exactly what said influencer was trying to prevent.
I’m a plebian and will pick w/e I want happily, and not be offended when some random calls me trash for it. Also because i will be shadow but that’s irrelevant. Moral of the story is that regardless of how you play the game, such a strong imbalance isn’t healthy.
You gotta be trolling. Warlocks Gateway is probably been consistently the strongest thing about that and has been a lynchpin in the strategies of pretty much every difficult boss.
If you didn’t have at least one Warlock, sometimes even 2 or more, you were going to struggle a LOT with fights like G’huun, Jaina, Azshara and Carapace.
