AMZ is not a raidbuff

I’m sorry, but is this a cruel joke? How are we still the only class without a raid buff? Doubling the abilities cooldown, but making it not deplete is a simple change that we could’ve seen without it being framed as our raid buff.

It does not feel good to press the button, where sometimes pressing it means people are more likely to get hit by abilities that they can’t see now because AMZ is there. It is on a global cooldown, so if you’re in your cooldowns, you likely don’t even want to press it, unless it’s a life or death situation, but that will only ever happen on the highest levels of play.

Other classes get group defensives on top of having incredibly strong raid buffs. Example being Demon Hunters having Darkness and Warriors having Rallying cry, which works on every boss, not just ones that do magic damage. The cherry on top is Priest though. They have a super strong raidbuff, Power Infusion, Mass Dispell, Life Grip and barrier if you play disc.

Reminder, we’re still the only class without a raid buff and we still will only be brought to raid unless we’re incredibly well tuned. With Abomination Limb being removed, it likely even reduces our chances of seeing encounters.

Please reconsider and provide us a raid buff.

P.S
Putting " New Talent: Unholy Momentum – Increases Haste by 2%." at the very top right before a dev note talking about DK’s needing extra help without relying on tuning, is a straight punch in the guts.

Edit: Grammar and added section highlighting priest utility while still having a raid buff.

This must be some sort of bad joke Blizzard. Are typhoon and wing flap considered raid buffs as well? We do not want nor need “fake utility raid buffs”. Better to just delete the damn death grip and give us a output raid buff instead.

Blizzard failed so hard on the Unholy talent tree, and whats worse is that they think taking away our utility, and increasing the cd on zone was ment to be our moment to shine. Like let’s be real, Blizzard could not give a single crap about us and our issue with how both the design for Unholy, and the fact we want a raid buff to feel like we bring something that effects every one, and not just the friken 1% hard core raiders.

The best part of it is that it is actually a nerf, as this talent replaces unholy ground, which gives 5% haste, so we’re 3% haste nerfed.
