I dk well see. With all these changes i think i might wow past me and move on. They clearly hate pvp
Every 7 second cc is gone if I read it correctly
down to 6
also maybe I can offer some outside perspective, but rogue is the most op class in game, there's a reason it's in almost every single comp

we'll see - long time 'til the patch
i'm curious if they're bringing rele back
since they're removing gladiator's distinction
Not anymore. Rogue will be the least represented class at this point
exept those are some massive nerfs wee are getting compared to anyone else
it's absolutely devastating for Rogue, literally dogshit change, they need to redesign the class
u guys hyped for the new rogue changes?
oh shit
unconfirmed
sheeeesh
Rogue will now be like a supporting character in Naruto. A cool ninja who's only cool and dies when the bad guy shows up 
but it for sure looks like the glad mount
Yea im pretty sure im just gonna cancel. There will never be a balance in this game and rather then keep getting pissed about bad change for my mental health im just gonna quit and move on. This game is terrible imo.
I would be shocked if it isn't
tbh these changes r the opposite of that
dracotter
if anything rogue being a cc bot (which it ends up being fairly often because it has so much cc its damage gets gimped) is more of a support character
jesus christ what are these changes guys
dont worry no rogues are getting glad now anyway
holy fuck
nerfing cc across the board generally implies specs that rely on cc to land kills will probably get damage buffs
unless u imagine they r just planning to gutter several classes
i'm def gonna take an extra ambien tonight for sure
Probably a damage buffs
this is what im saying
Probably
they're not buffing our damage
ebcause of stealth
the community fucking hates rogue
they better make us actually do some stupid damage to offset it lol
also to be clear, the only singular TARGETED nerf rogue got
30k eviscerate lets goooooo
we've been nerfed none stop due to our CC and the damage
delete the CC i want our damage back
everything else is just in line with everyone elses cc nerfs
which is w/e
they remove the set bonus cc reduc, they bring it baseline to all cc
thats fine
well our kick also used to lock out 1 second longer now it's identical
yes those two sure
true
i'm also really glad they're giving us the ability to add pvp scaling to crafted armor
thats prob the biggest buff to casters honestly
so scrubs like me can get 2nd ring with main stat
cause most embellishements r like 1% damage, less in pvp
so giving that up for precog is so free

S2 caster cleave meta confirmed lol
yeah looks like it's gonna be a wizard season
crit nerfed too
i'm just gonna roll affliction warlock
fear duration didn't even get nerfed
(yet)
with this they buried fire mage, destro lock and sub rog to the fkn ground
specially fire and sub lol
they probably adjust for the damage loss
Idk sub gaining back their CS rotation will be decent
i didn't see any hoj changes
Assuming the meta doesn't just hard shift back to orcs because of course they won't change the racial
did other classes get cc nerfs?
idk how many cc effects with durations shorter then 5s currently got nerfed
it seemed to be mostly cc with base duration longer then 5
it's down to 5 secs
oh
ok i'm fine with kidney nerf then
just blind sap change
still cringe but as long as it's not just us i suppose is less bad
I'll take the blind sap changes and the kidney reduction, let's just have 1 min off Cloak and Evasion CDs, no energy cost on feint and a damage buff to make up for it
do u imagine something like "Hardiness has been redesigned: Now reduces damage taken by 5%"
No more CC + flag caps.
or straight removed
i can't really get over maim and kidney being the same button now
should've increased the cd on kidney like 4-5 seconds instead
This gsme is 100% going to be a pve based game in a few months. Either pve or gtfo. The pvp pop is going to be dead. Mark my words
Imo this game is done. Period
shut up pichu
I always thought something like just giving them a damage reduction during stuns specifically would be good. Keeps to the same og theme
I don't see them full removing it
Ever
would be balanced tho
I'm sorry, I can't get over the blind change, I know sitting in a long cc chain is not fun, but that's the point od having teammates to stop some of that stuff, intervene the sap, flare the rogue, etc etc
How pissed was pikaboo
This is basically telling me Blizz is balancing around shuffle, coordinated PvP can fuck off
3s and 2s are dead
Was he very angry
it's a 2 minute cooldown too - literally on the same footing as 20-30 second cds now
time to play melee or caster cleaves and just ignore cc!
me smash
yep
The fact that coordinated pvp has to die for SS lol…
s2 looks like no set up comps; just turbo or caster cleaves

positioned bad? barely punished
what's happening? Can anyone write tl'dr version for me?
removing trademark CC chain is making rogue another zug zug press W melee, if they don't compensate we'll be Z-tier
Just tuned in, what the hell is happening
the problem was cc wasn't even long cc chains - it was the piss cc and getting triple DRd in each DR category
they should've just deleted the third DR
Jesus christ
lmao
Tf is going on
welcome to hell
tell me its ok daddy please
zugzug
im just thinking about facing every single caster with a free precog next season
😴
kicks lock out for less time and every caster with precog
do they just not want us 2 kick
They’re changing our cc?
Well
blind sap is gone
Nerfing blind sap and kidney
isn't this a big nerf to sub in pvp?
If they increase Ambush damage by 100%, then I'd be cool with these changes.
big nerf to sub and law yes
and whatever other pvp specs rely on crit for sustain damage
Not very big, but still unwelcome. Sub isn’t even over powered right now.
make soylo award glad mount
Why they just dont remove pvp?
Man, I recently got my rogue geared. Geez. Literally today
because these changes would probably increase the amount of ppl playing pvp not decrease
Everyone give feedback on the forums
Yeah, you won't be needing 'gear' anymore where we're going.
secret + cb seem like a big burst, not sure if i overestimate the strengh of it
it would just decrease the amount of top players playing
That’s all we can really do 
ye
reducing cc/setups, increasing pve gameplay, reducing burst (death in a stun)
i die 100 to 0 in 0,01
I believe they are purposely sabotaging pvp to get you to pve
all changes that make pvp more welcoming to ur average plebian
but def dumbs the game down a bit
@wispy viper im rerolling to dh
If you’re here just to troll, this isn’t the place
are u saying rogue cant kill ppl 100 to 0 in 1 sec?
It’s strong, yes. But it isn’t broken strong.
Have fun posting on forums when any pro rogue post is going to be met with a bunch of "get rekt rogues lololololol"
Yes, I am
Ratings are discriminatory.
even trickz is defeated
we lost boys
it's over

Lol
yup cheerleader class
rogue still SS tier
Already cancelled sub
havoc 1 ds 100 to 0

nerf pls
All rogue players rn
Well at least they said the beginning of the pvp talent revamp will also be happening in 10.1
well
Meanwhile rest of the world celebrating
as havoc u only need 2 iq to play well

Overall I think blizzard has lost their backbone. Tuning based on the community’s cry babies.
It’s abhorrent.
its silly the amount of misinformation going around, wait till the patch is live and watch.
the discord is acting like the forums now when it comes to doomposting its funny
i mean lets be realistic
legitimately removing the ability to blind sap is a massive nerf to the skillcap of rogues, one expac ago we could reliably kidney sap. it's not a free interaction, it costs us a dance or a vanish, but it's a gamewinner, if you restrict the ability to do that we're just a stinky windwalker, or DH, or DK with one off micro-CCs for healers. i absolutely hate that change
This is an absolutely BRUTAL nerf.
who else
I’m sorry, are you new here? 
rogue uinplayable
It's been an honor, ladies and gentlemen. Was it fun for pvp? now we're going to beat some of the same dungs for a few months and kill dragons in the raid, because that's the only thing you can do in this stupid game. oh there's also solo which is the most random and unfair mode of all so good luck 
the biggest change imo is that crit damage one thats gonna hurt
BIG TRUE
nah it's blind/sap for sure
this is the most
based shit ever said on this discord
ok i am done
I can see the next tuning.
All damage in pvp has been reduced by 99%.
Having some fun is fine
blizzard change on blind is alright
Adapt, overcome, succeed. shrug
Joking is fine
But let’s be reasonable
amen
Lol
indeed
the loudest complainers will be the fotm rollers, mark my words.
reminder that glads distinction is gone
At this point id rather see:
Rogues have beeb removed from the game.
Developers note: to compensate all rogues have been given a free 70 boost
i hope they change orc racial with this
look havoc is broken, havoc killed rogue 100 to 0 in 0,5s https://clips.twitch.tv/TsundereInventiveArmadilloPupper-KL4vXy5aOS8cySng
So who's ready for the PVP FaQ on how to PVE the other team down fastest
Damn time to play casters
with the recent buffs/changes to racials I think they want to make orcs/horde more desirable as it seems like the balance between high ranking pvpers is mainly alliance
this reduces the value of human racial too i imagine
at least in 3s, which If memory serves is where they do most of their pvp balance
*Stealth has been removed from to Rogue's toolkit. We feel that it gave Rogues an unfair advantage in PvP situations that was not intended. Moving forward, we'd like to emphasize the gameplay loop of afk auto-attacking. *
i wonder if the %5 from the pvp embellished piece will still be around
Notes say its gone too
No outlaw changes???
Yea. Cryt dmg nerf
Well time to learn sub, again
Plus side it opens up a bit more flexibility with embellished items and crafting gear in general for pvp
the forum post says they'll be looking at the specs that utilize crits to make sure that they don't fall behind
i personally doubt that they'll be going through with the blind changes, bare minimum they reduce the cooldown, which i wouldn't mind
Not really, it'll still be as good when you have full sockets
Just roll free sockets on everything in vault 🙂
they should add pvp scaling as embellished
It sounds like they are if I understand that part of the notes correctly

I like the itemization changes at least
well, that is a good change if is true tho
Gearing will be nice
so u can do a scaled lariat
Yea the crafting changes are actually kinda lit for pvp
or something similar
crafting changes are really good
do u have the full quote?
hmm you won't be able to get pvp scaling and precog at the same time though, probably. since they're both embellishments
Wdym
Pvp scaling isnt a embellishment
Its point is to make embellished items better in pvp
Its just ab optional reagent
It would probably go in the ilvl slot, not the embellishment slot I'd think
But yea we won't know until we see it since they just say "optional reagent"
Exactly
are embellishments like fang adornments not optional reagents? then yeah
Well I mean literally anything outside of the base crafting materials are "optional reagents"
Its just that
That cost is like 1.5% dps
They would have called it an embellishment if it was an embell
Like they did precog
level setting is optional reagents, precog embellishment also probably optional reagent (?) so not that the same time
You can make embellished items into pvp scaling items wdym
Exactly
Thats my point
The pvp scaling item is so u can have things like lariat at pvp scaled ilvl
I was misguided then, it's no big deal either way
even cdew thinks the blind/sap nerf is too much
The only annoying thing is if they do put that in the current ilvl slot that means it basically locks it for pvp and you can't have a flex crafted item you use in pve and pvp
Seems pretty worth as a caster
I gotta see this lmao
The man crying for Blind to be completely removed from the game?
damn, even cdew? we're really doomed
He thinks it’s too much?
Oh jeez foxy too
yeah would be pretty good to have a move speed or snare reduction exclusive with precog for melees
That's bad lol
wtf is this
everquest
blind goes to 6 seconds mark my words

I'm fine if Sub has a PvP talent to make blind 8 seconds
Assa can go be an ungabunga melee press W faceroll spec that's fine
Ngl I wouldn’t like that
mandatory pvp talents can go die in a fire

If Cdew is defending us, hell has frozen over
If Blind goes to 6, is that even enough to reliably Sap?
considering you could sap kidney in SL, yes
SL Kidney was 7s
wait
is cdew upset at the change
no shot bro
If your ping isn’t great, you could see issues trying to sap from 6sec CC

Memories . . .
you could still sap rele no? maybe I'm tripping
I don't think so, but I played assa all of SL and never ran DS, so not entirely sure
the patch has like 8-9 weeks, relax
Hardiness is going to get nerfed if they have a brain
Make it -5% damage taken while stunned and call it a day
that is what i said
i am
shadowlands pvp 2: electric boogaloo
Btw, Intimidate. The hunter stun to 3 secs. Is actually really bad for them.
Such a short window to trap
- orc . Thats 2.4 sec stun. 1.3 sec GCD. Thats 1 second to throw your trap.
and warrior and dh ungabunga stuns reduced
but who cares they doesn't know how to read KEK
so what does this mean about gear? i was gonna go for drakebreaker waist & wrist next, titanic ring too, does the new gear stuff change anything?
https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-us/character/us/stormrage/hyperdexia
yeah ur boots
oh cuz the cc reduction fuck i just got those lmao
Probably 3 considering the scope of these changes
and don't think we will get honor or conq boots w those stats
can i still get titanic ring? do i go for conq boots after 10.1?
go before to have them ready
Rog dedge
ok tysm
The way it sounds, we'll be able to add a thing to the Titanic Insight ring to make it scale to PvP ilvl
This spec is now c tier with this change
do u have any class backups?
Guys rogue just got nuked
rip sap blind? ahaha
now is kidney blind sap
No healer would trinket blind anymore
At least cs and gouge relatively got buffed
Now sub can have decent cs goes
yeah i agree, gearing is looking so much better, at this rate we wont even need to spend honor on a trinket

If rogue doesn't get any damage buffs it is so dead
where is this
hope so
i dont think reverting it is the right call
but increasing blind to at least 6 seconds
blind being 5 seconds makes 0 sense
and deleting hardiness
so its not an orc fiesta
I can't imagine how tilting 6 seconds wouldbe, when we could send the 7cp kidneys into sap in SL it only worked some of the time, I'm not blowing an extra dance charge/vanish for the chance to get a sap
every class got nerfed lil bro
yes and rogue got hit the hardest lil bro
Mage is pretty bad too.
yup mage got fisted
they'll increase blind to 6 seconds
and we will be on par with mage fisting
they made fistweaving S tier
got the vers mastery boots
Yeah that's what I meant
Tbh though I'm not a fan of any of these changes
The worst changes to Pvp ever
Also fears are going to be OP af in comparison to other cc
gz @jolly sierra nice
The kick lockout duration thing too is...
I feel like the crit change alone would have been sufficient to stop the insane burst
ty, but is very easy to get xd
they said they nerfed CC cuz they got feedback that CC was too polarizing for new players
now we just give feedback these changes are shit and they revert 🙂
for new players? rlly?
dude that in 2004 would be a laugh reason from devs
a new player judging CC
RE: Crowd Control changes in 10.1: The frequency and duration of crowd control has long been a top complaint about PvP across varying skill levels. The team has put together some big changes and I know they look forward to hearing your feedback after you play it on the PTR.
142
imagine hear new players which probably will leave in a month not for cc but for unga unga classes
If you are getting upset over WoW PvP changes in Dragonflight the best cause of action is to take a step away from the monitor. Find the nearest mirror. Stare intently for anywhere between 1-2 hours. The issue is not the changes.
they said that in the "Feedback" blue post
FIRE HOLINKA
kek
change org never works lol
crazy how this dude thinks upset = wrong
he will laugh at the petition
honestly
since they're reverting the 15% CC reduction
8 second CC was already at 6.8 seconds
since they deleted that and reduced CC to 6 seconds
its a 0.8 second nerf
yep, great changes so far imho
they wont keep blind at 5 seconds
hope ur right
Unless orc
if they dont nerf orc they're cooked
I want to believe
Im honestly here for full orc lobbies that'll be funny af
I mean it'll just be SL all over again
im not
not like we haven't seen it before
if you can still say that after all these constant changes
then idk what to tell you bro
you might be lost
its a 0.8 second nerf to 8 second CC
If orc racial gets changed, it'll be more likely now than any other time in the past by a huge margin
like what are you even mad about
them bricking the blind sap interaction
that wont last bro
They'll wait for everyone to racechange to orc and nerf it a month later

LOL
I'll just play keys
Wdym, rogue set is one the best ever
its pink
i love pink
GG
mythic
are rogues officially dead now
pink my fav colour
no
i rlly loved the edgy red color for pvp
they will increase blind to 6 seconds to be on par with other classes
oh theyre nerfing every CC
I mean if it follows the same color scheme as current tier
i already imagine the color combo in my head
then it will
is awful
and they deleted the 15% CC reduction
oh so its all the same
Regardless though, I plan on getting the mythic one by upgrading gear
nothing changed?
just like this tier
so 8 second CC right now is 6.8 seconds with 15% reduction
new CC is 6 seconds baseline
I checked warlock and rogue they both had the same colors
its a 0.8 seocnd nerf
Sort of, some ccs didn't get nerfed
can still blind sap but its super small window
yeah you'll need to farm 17s for that
So fear, clone are stronger than now
or heroic raid
cheap shot also didnt get nerfed
Yeah, that's fine, I do all that now!
so sub rogue got buffed
ye
with the 15% CC deleted
sub stonks go up assa zug zug stonks go down
but their cc is nerfed anyways
with 150% crits though, will sub be able to kill in a dance go
I think they're going to release catalyst sooner
Not with the current proposed changes
But likely won't last given the immediate uproar
i blame cdew for this
sub rogues stack mastery
Even Cdew said it was too far LMAO
LMAO
Someone with Twitter? Been hearing rumours about Holinka tweeting about orc racial. I can't find it myself, but I don't know if Twitter restricts my access without an account (I dont have any social media)
LOL
and secret tech with cold blood is 100% crit chanced
it will be a slight nerf to secret tech
when your biggest ops become your biggest fans
we see overall damage increase probably
I don't see anything from him about orc racial
that change is meant to counter random shit like the hunt and ds doming you from %70 on a dice roll
Ahh damn, was hoping for it to be true
yeah exactly
yes
first round of changes, we'll see more
Oh come on don't you want to see 4 second kidneys? 🙃
Oh I agree, if these changes stick Hardiness is getting reworked 100%, there's no way
what they'll do is
Everyone still freaking out?
would kidney even be worth casting as sub?
get that race change money Blizz
this is net buff for sub rogues tho, no CC reduction, and cheap shot is not touched
exactly
let's assume they won't forget to adjust orc racial with all these changes
Eh, I wouldn't go that far, Blind change alone is enough to negate everything else
I would like to believe that
it wont bro lmao
literally every pvp content creator has made a video saying its stupid as fuck
they arent just gonna keep that
It's ok they will buff blind to 5.9 seconds 🙂
these are the same people who have blasted rogues for the whole season
if this is all you join a discord server to do, troll and poke at people, you should probably find a more useful use of your time.
Hopped on PTR, this looks like it's the normal raid set
secret tech still trucks without cold blood
Can't see the other tints
so i'm not worried about that
hataro posted a different tint than that from PTR earlier
@spark egret
yea that's why I said it was fine, just pointing out that one shot potential goes down some for sub
But if that comes with buffing elsewhere (which it probably will) that's really only a net benefit
These are pretty sick
normal or lfr
honestly sectech is like double tap, it's so strong it's cluttering the design space a bit
LFR is usually a greenish tint
so lfr normal heroic mythic
but on the other hand i like having a big ass finisher
the red is def heroic
Or silver
Can you get one to see how exactly it slots in during crafting?
and we know purple is mythic
not really
you think so?
I thought purple is conquest 
its not double tap
purple was datamined as mythic
Ye I see it now
The lock one on the same pic is the pvp tint
From the original post
nope
They added back the upgrade ilvl in pvp ?
Bruh
Is the purple tint mythic or 1800? Or something else?
I’m literally agreeing with you
Purple tint is confirmed mythic
i want to argue and fight
“Nope”
?

R.E.A.D.
Don't have enough conquest, but looking at the various options in the profession window, I don't see where it goes yet
This is interesting though
I don’t think so no
as alt or main in 10.1
Wonder what this will be
Nah I'm tweaking I misunderstood the vendor
that set is so good
They added a way to transform all gear into pvp scaling gear through honor and conquest @proven kayak
i knew it
Ye took a while to realize I'm sleepy af
probably snare + root reduction
They did say they were reworking some of the crafting stuff in the patch too, maybe it'll be a new slot entirely then
Which would be sick
some baffling changes
IMAGINE not getting that priest set dude
interestingly enough it’s in the complete opposite direction of pre df seasons tbh
You are on crack
whereas before it felt much more methodical and pre planned
now it’s gonna be slam shit randomly to kill meta
bro right now
That priest set is absolutely insane
8 second CC is 6.8 seconds
but they're deleting 15% reduction
and making 8 second CC 6 seconds
its a 0.8 second nerf
blind wont stay at 5 seconds
Well it's easy to abuse people at ssr anyway so rogues will be in ok state like always even if it's not that good
I'm so in love with the rogue and warlock set
the DK set is also going to be a banger
I have so much to do in s2

You mean on d4 and other games?
they are probably thinking along the lines of blind being non combat so they are expecting you to cheap then blind into sap but already people pre the blind 🤷♂️

Imagine resubbing to wow 
Me too


my 30 days are up tho
im not
You guys play wow?
is PTR free still

^
im a final fantasy main now
till d4 drops

yep
I think it is heroic
but we'll see
cause like they said this is mythic
mage mythic is also purple
alot of the heroic sets seem to have a red tint
Pvp tint when
next ptr maybe
@unborn portalthis is listed as the warlock elite
Lfr
so I assume that all the elites will be that color
Maybe
Giga Nathria vibes lol
Ngl though, this set looks better on a human male than NE female
Yo do we panic for the nerfs ?
Lfr is usually like ugly green
got the cursed end match for today
this is literally shredder from ninja turtles
devoker, dark iron dwarf sham and demolock
I can't wait to see it on my DARKSPEAR
Panicking is a waste of energy
we know
tanked like 37 cr, enough for today
How else do you expect me to get my exercise in for the day
tomorrow is another day kek
there is one rule in wow, no matter what happens in a patch, one rogue spec will be completely broken anyway
my dibs on sub rogue in 10.1
since i think they will remove the stun reduction from orc aswell
yeah then i cba out 
glad mount for shufflers when
cus i won't pay that money to change races on 3 characters
no chance its sub if all the changes go through
outlaws only strong trait atm is the cc @unborn portal
unless they get a massive damage buff or a burst cd
doubt it will be any good
Hi is rogue affected at all for 10.1?
Gouge is fine bro /s

Blind gouge is 9s, don't need to commit vanish, we're cool
Where's tarny where's trickz where's dayv
cheap shot literally will be better than kidney
theres no way i would spend 5 cp on a kidney when i can cs

vanishes
bro?
what are you talking about
cheap shot wasnt nerfed lil bro
and 15% CC reduction got taken out the back
Did u just call him lil bro. What kinda porn u into
someone into degrading
are you projecting or smth
everyone will just roll back orc if orc doesn't change, so
I was kidding step bro
do we even play 10.1 if orc won't be changed?
i am not even a rogue main
no
I'm a little angry ATM I hope you can understand
and i won't play 10.1 if orc stays
if they dont change orc i pve on final fantasy
i don't think it's that big a deal tbh
and touch grass
they will tune dmg around the shorter cc
was DH stuns in the patch notes? can't remember
i don't think so no
how bad is it looking boys
So with those crafting changes, it might be worthwhile to make Life-bound bracers and belt with vers/mastery and get them socketed going into S2
yeah just saw that actually, didnt realize cs wasnt changed
the entire point they're trying to reach is where you don't get out CC'd into losing, while still leaving some room for outplay with CC at the same time
So much copium that we’re going to get even the slightest damage buff to make up for taking our CC out at the knees
i think its copium that people think blind wont go to 6 seconds
matches shouldn't be full-on scripted into a loss based off someone's CC capabilities (considering perfect play from all parties)
im making a PTR account to spam reports that blind sux balls
but if someone makes a mistake(s), that should still be punishable through CC etc
its still the wrong direction imo
regular cc isnt really the issue
racials is one issue
its every class having access to multiple micro cc thats the issue
too much micro cc is what lead to precog
oh they pushed awc back to april 7
if they want to make big changes to pvp they need to look at micro cc/interrupts and mobility
if they want to change things big time then grow some balls and address the elephant in the room for the last 5 expansions
idk
id rather remove micro cc, lower overall mobility and make casters go back to actually casting
yeah but slower meta is always more beneficial for assa
yeah assa is not reliant on crits at all tbh
slower meta = mana game
we will see, ngl i liked to play my WW in bfa
so crits back to 150%
will make big difference
if the meta slows down as much as it looks like it might, assa will be the best i think
bfa with crits at 150% was 10 min games no?
i would love to see tier sets gone in pvp instead of this crit change tho
there were a lot of reasons games were long in bfa
its not necessarily a death sentence for burst specs
personally i think the sweet spot of games is 2-3 min long
right now its less than 2 min for sure
yeah, but in bfa we had OP tank trinkets in pvp, then 50%+ vers with corruption, and healers were more stronger than now
fire mage was the best spec in the game for most of the expac
its so rare to use the 2nd set of 2 min cds
lot more self sustain from dps too
like way too much
true dat, and it was an only burst spec from combustion
yeah
but sub was pretty bad
just based on current changes
the biggest winners are gonna be arms wars and destro locks
really destro lmao
goodness destro is gonna be wild
and maybe some heavy utility specs like boomy and sv hunter
sv is getting an aoe disarm
unless im reading that wrong
yeah it's like a disarm living bomb
lmao
don't worry though we get an additional slow on our dogshit distract PvP talent, thanks game devs!
setup comps are deader than dead, these changes are meant to make PvP universal so newcomers and PvErs can play more, the idea of a 'win condition' is gone, the win condition is now just do your raidboss rotation until someone dies
i mean i think they are just tuning for shuffle now
anything with high DPS and consistent pressure is going to be insane, with less damage, no crits, shorter CC and an end to CC chains it's going to be a really apelike meta
which i suppose makes sense
if there's no passive survivability buff for Rogues you can forget it
well its not no crits ever
end of an era
meh 150% is barely a crit
that's 25% less damage on Lava Burst, Shatter Combos, SecTec goes
like i said fire mage was the best spec in bfa and its purely a crit based spec
true, the crit based specs now will need a passive tuning buff to make up for it
Ele Shaman should be sweating
will be interesting to see if they make any more changes
either these changes are really concrete, which means Blizzard are literally incompetent
or they're going to do more, in which case they shouldn't have released this half-baked shit
I've played since 2006, genuinely considering whether I should bother
literally never malded so hard at patch notes, not even close
really just have to wait and see how things play out i guess
curious just how much the meta slows down
i think assa will be fine though
the more the meta slows down the better assa gets really
doesnt rely on crits, doesnt really rely on cc chains, super high sustain and in a damp meta they arent squishy anymore
I might be wrong but I feel like Assa is probably in the most danger just now, it’s going to be a meta that favours tanky classes with high sustain, warrior is already creeping towards S-Tier so the ladder will be swamped by them soon
Assa losing 30% blind duration, 1sec off kidney, 2 sec off kick and blind/sap on top of garrotte fix and deathmark/hemotoxin nerf is pretty bad
It becomes even less setup based (it was always kinda diet Rogue) and has to compete with the zugzugs
Plus healers all running precog is an indirect Rogue nerf
if the meta slows down to the point assa doesnt die in a stun anymore, thats basically a buff
thats its only real weakness
assa thrives in a dampfest pve environment
we dont lose 1 sec off kidney its like, 0,1 loss because they are removing 15% from trinket set and pvp feet
they haven't said anything about orc racial
Orc racial exists
so if it stays, we essentially lose 1 second, yes
eh no way it stays if they are making this changes ofc it existsđ
These cc changes are giving me diarrhea
They just want to attract more new players to ranked environment by fucking up the skill ceiling
I'm scared arenas gonna turn into a pve shit fest
Been playing frost mage in shuffle and it's already barely worth using poly there. This is gonna make it completely useless to cc
It's like lol season after season they try remove any skill expression and just win by numbers
with a lot of wizards
Silver lining is it could make getting cc changes a bit more skillful, idk
Now you have to burn kidney to sap after blind
Or you could make a decision to just short goug e
I'm curious how this'll play out
I'm worried about the crit changes too tbh. I liked the fast paced meta
Yeah I'm hella worried about that
They were doing good by nerfing burst cds and buffing sustain. Crit change seemed unnecessary
wlll be good for assa tho
You just have to play bruiser with consistent damage and hope you do more
Assa might be okay
will feel like a circus
Lmao
Ye idk I think sub will be in a very bad spot if they don't totally rework the spec
ngl i don't see them removing something that has been there for years
that will also make them a lot of money from race/faction changes again
They should keep blind 6s at least for sub only
They need to move more damage into evis out of secret tech too
I wonder how dead pvp will be after this lol season. Rogues will be a rare breed
As snutz said this will be the final nail in the coffin
Most ppl who play rogue are dedicated and play them through every change
I think they are already kinda rare sub side. 1800 in NA was like what #600? Warrior @1800 was something like #4000
I feel like Sub is quantum tunneling and warrior is a tricicle on rails
I cba I play to take mogs and illusions while having fun changes never stopped me
Solo shuffle was the most fun I ever had playing arena
i already have the xmog just wanna the illusion at this step
im at 2k w rog, but if doesnt works for now ill go w ret after patch
Got it early and unsubbed but came back cus of tavern thing
The only change I want is faster qs if possible
who doesn't want it
ngl thou
in my 3 matches today, one took 40, another one 50 and then the last and cursed one 1 hour 10
The sap and blind change aint bad
Maybe with those changes more healers will play
it took skill to pull tthat off in SL
how tf i got a devoker an ele and a demo dwarves in the same match
but in DF its too easy to get that combo off
I played assa all seasons of sl
Yes
that one was like hell
