Why are rogues still allowed to be completely OP with their speed, stuns, stealth and stabbing? Couldn’t they have at least ONE weakness?
Level 52 rogue can keep me from healing, I try to run away, it can keep up and doesn’t even bother to stealth. Then it keeps ganking me, I use EVERY single CC I have, but nothing works! It’s immune to quaking palm and leg sweep somehow!
I tried to use ‘ring of peace’ to stop druid and that rogue from ganking me, so I could HEAL, but the rogue can easily stun me for 7 seconds even though I am inside ‘ring of peace’.
That stun/sap range is ANOTHER really OP thing they have - why can’t it be so that rogue has to be REALLY close to do anything to you? That would make AoE ACTUALLY useful!
But now AoE is a joke against rogues that can sap, stun and who knows what you from 100 km away and then blink instantly to you from that 100 km away, no matter how fast you are.
Monk mobility is a bad joke against rogue speed.
Why does blizz let rogues remain this psycho griefer class that pretty much no one can do anything against?
If there was a rogue counter class, I would play that class and only that class, and never anything else. That’s how annoyingly ridiculously frustratingly OP those rogues are, and I can’t understand what kind of sense it makes or why it’s allowed.
This rogue kept up with me, as I said, I tried those two CC so I could escape and heal, but no, they had NO EFFECT. I couldn’t use karma for some reason, and then I had 1% HP and died.
I know, you all probably want to say “git gud” or “l2p” right now, but when I can’t use karma, I can’t make anything I do count, I can’t outrun the rogue, it can stealt, stun and sap me from a distance, can’t heal even in ring of peace, WHAT options do I have but just die at this point??
Like, I want to be able to stun the rogue and escape and heal. But that is 100% impossible, because rogues are TOO OP right now.
Couldn’t they have at least ONE proper weakness? couldn’t their OP in stealth, stun, speed, immunity, blinking, and all that, be nerfed to NORMAL level??
Some ideas:
-
Remove CC from rogues, if you are gonna allow them to have all the other OP features AND hit so hard you can’t even breathe before you’re dead - I dropped my mouse and by the time I picked it up, rogue had ganked me in stun.
-
Modify rogue CC so that damage breaks it. This way they can still be annoying, but they can’t just brutally murder you without you being able to DO something about it (this is the biggest grief about rogues, that they can just ROB you of any action or possibilities, they can just gank you against your consent and will 100% in stun! THIS SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED FOR ANYONE)
-
Make their CC have only 1 charge and really long cooldown, so they have to really think hard about when to use it
-
Make their CC ALWAYS escapable, so at least they can’t GANK YOU mercilessly while you sit in stun helplessly, but you can always DO something!
-
Reduce their stuns to normal level
-
Reduce their speed to normal level
-
Reduce their stealth to normal level
and by ‘normal’, I mean, instead of the current SUPER level, reduce it to ANY OTHER class’s level, please. Except maybe the Paladin that was 2nd top healer and top KBs simultaneously (seriously, level 59 Paladin that has a name that almost spells the word ‘Overpower’ (so they KNOW they’re OP!) that every BG has top healing and top damage, most KBs, etc… how is this allowed?
The SAME player should never have both ‘top damage’ AND ‘top healing’, but there you go, apparently rules do not apply to Paladins.
HOW did they mess up BGs and any kind of semblance of balance this badly? Rogues and Paladins roam so freely in these BGs, ganking anything that’s not 100% super sharp with all cooldowns intact with 10 friends around to help. You’re alone and rogue saps you, I don’t care what class you are, you’re dead, unless you can bubble or stealth for long enough to reach your own team…
… which, as in my case, will probably just run around like clueless robots and not help you at all and the rogue will still gank you anyway. Maybe a DK or Paladin can do something, or maybe a warrior can ‘leap’ away, but play anything like a monk, and you’re like “poor man’s version of rogue without the CC or stealth”, it can counter and outdo everything and anything you can do.
I wish they would beef up other classes’ ability to ESCAPE the darn rogues, so it wouldn’t be 99.999% sure you die in stun every time a rogue so much as looks at you.
Sigh. I am so tired of this, the feeling when you just do everything you can to try to escape and STILL get ganked in stun is just enough to sink your hope for all humanity and make you depressed for life.
I solemnly pray and wish that every single dev that had anything to do with either creation of rogue class, designing of it, or making it so OP that monks have no chance to survive or escape, would face their karma and have to be ganked every day by rogues while they try to escape (and fail), for the rest of their lives. I wish that even if they escape to the other life beyond this one, their karma will bring purgatory in the form of rogues to them, that keep ganking them and ganking them in stun and bringing the same exact feeling we all have to endure every time we have gotten ganked a thousand and then another thousand times in these badly designed, imbalanced BGs until they truly and really KNOW what they created and what it feels like to be ganked by them in stun.
If this doesn’t happen, there is no justice in the Universe or the whole existence whatsoever, and then I don’t even care what happens, if I have to live in such a place.
