Resto shamans are one-shotting people in low level battlegrounds. Their raw damage is WAY too high and you’re going to buff it even further next patch.
While these buffs may be necessary at endgame, you’re absolutely overbuffing classes on lower levels by not having spell ranks.
Please, bring back Spell Ranks so that you are actually able to tune things without affecting lower levels, and please do it before resto Shamans, or any other class, can one-shot God.
Bracket of the screenshot below is Lv20-29. People have a health pool of 4-5k, btw.
1: The screenshot of the damage is not mine.
2: I have spell reflect
3: my bis gear is full ilv100, which scales up even higher in BG, I have a 6k health pool with 3k absorbs and strong self heals. I do not die to resto shamans.
This is not a thread about me. Stop trying to make it such. You’re being cringe.
Honestly I dont see how could old spell ranks system possibly fix this… it would be also weird and stupid to have spell rank system on low lvls and then not on max lvl
I just said spell ranks. Those already exist in the current game.
Back in Shadowlands iirc, Warriors would learn Mortal Strike rank 2 (which increased mortal strike damage by 30% or something) at a level way later than mortal strike rank 1 (which just gave them the initial ability).
This made sure that low-level warriors weren’t one-tapping things early-on.
No one here is asking for a “classic-like spell rank system”.
My man can you read??
That screenshot is not mine. That is literally not me on the screenshot taking that damage. I linked it to show evidence of how ridiculous a healers damage is at low level.
It definitely seems to be one tbh. Twinking community is beyond toxic. I leveled an alt recently, zoned into a BG with premades apparently, and I got votekicked without a word in the first 5 seconds randomly.
They’d probably be more popular if Blizzard actually allowed them to reward a decent amount of XP. 20 minute game for 4-5 bars of XP if you win… You could gain 2 whole levels in a dungeon in that time. No wonder so few people care about low level BGs.
Everyone is funnelled through boring dungeons if we want a new character.
Doubt there are more than 1-2 instances of low-level bgs on at any given time per bracket. At least that’s judging by the insane queue times when I tried queueing for a few days about 4 years ago.
Given that the player base has gone down, I doubt it’s any better now. So the number of people affected is probably insanely small. PvP is not really a optimal way to level (not even close). Even with the heirloom trinkets that provided a 100% boost some expansions ago it was much slower than regular leveling. So people don’t have any incentive to do it.
So balancing low-level PvP is probably like item with priority 8798 on their to-do list.
kek
someone killed you. pvp bgs arent single player arena. play with team. and
