Well if you look at the ret set bonus , it buffs all of these attacks , so if you was unlucky to run into someone with 4 piece you will get slapped and dmg like that happens
Met a monk with the 4 piece and let me tell you , they do more dmg than that in less time
Why do people even complain about ret? The healing is crap and we only got burst dmg going for us right now , our mobility is on a 45 sec cd and let me tell you when the charges are gone , good luck then catching anything
Anyone with half a brain , will just use a defensiv - cc - mobility to get away from the shiny wheelchair

The burst on other classes is comparable or better and most classes heal more then ret , its just a slap in the face when you see a warrior outhealing you.
Seen it multiple times people thinking they can just tank the dmg and not use anything appropriate to counter it
The burst rotation is even so easy to spot.

Had a lobby with Ele - Arcane - Affli. Was my last game of the day and let me tell you i could not leave the pillar even for 1 second , Ele and Arcane did so much dmg and any game where i faced the lock was impossible too , i got 2 wins and that was only because the 1 was Ele just deleting someone and the second was just the healer getting deleted by Ele
I would not want to do regular 3s in arena right now because i saw exactly what triangle play with a Ele looks like and its disgusting , no chance to win.
Casters are the Supreme beings of this expansion.

Lol, defensives.

Dude, that clip from above showed the paladin getting up to 200k dps , then he drops to a mere 131k dps after the initial burst.

He barely had to stay in melee range as well for most of it.

They nerfed monk damage twice in a row because it could set up big bursts when there were large number of pets present in the round due to thunderfist procs.

Paladins can do that burst in any situation. Unless your defensive negates damage entirely good luck surviving that damage.

I said ret damage was broken before the buffs. Only reason people weren’t playing them was they were far more broken classes for them to play. Now with DH/SP nerfs(lol not really) etc, watch the number of rets we’ll see pop up.

Yep they are OP, same as ret pala.
Same I can say, war + pala. War use spear, pala deleting all around. Ect.

Oh no those evil rets
 what about this?

300k in 0.2 sec while being immune to cc as well, arms broken???

What buffs were there to judgement exactly? Its funny seeing all these tears about ret 1 shot suddenly when they buffed crusader strike :clown_face:

I agree that 200k+ crits are stupid but that has nothing to do with these buffs and there are many classes doing the same, including evokers and sub rogues killing you in a cheap shot 100-0 (but apparently they are not viable, said by rmp players :rofl:)

Ret is literally the noob slayer all you have to do to beat us is when you see wings run away and spam slows and cc and never stand close together so we can’t cleave everyone’s health down at once especially in arena we’ll die as soon as bubble is dispelled or popped usually not only that the moves that do our big damage can easily miss when against a mobile class and we still take the cd for it

I love the - well all you have to do to avoid certain death is ‘just run away’.

You act like the paladin is the only person in the whole arena. You don’t have two other team mates stunning/ccing as well.

Also when people are posting ‘I was beaten by this broken class, so we’re not that bad’

This means you are broken AF.

Someone above said it best,paladin is only a noob slayer,pvp isn’t balanced,there are a few op specs but retri isn’t one of them and it’s not even unique in this one shot playstyle arms and shaman are the same and people complain about them too,people who can’t deal with a burst window

Ret burst feels strong compared to
 limp noodle fury. Above 1700 you are lucky to have 1 sneaky kill during wings, most people react well. Its not nice to be on the recieving side of 160k decree but there are scarier and stronger classes than ret who needs nerfs. At least ret can be kited and barely lives against semi competent opponents.

pair it with a uh dk and and you can no longer kite the ret
 and if its so bad why did you reroll ret from your warrior? supreme the dh above has done the same thing odd
