Blizzard,
Please find a way to divide the set bonuses for the 2 different aspects of the game. For example, it is quite obvious that the season 3 tier set bonus for PVP disc is not as good as the one from season 1. I completely understand that more subscribers enjoy playing dungeons and raids, but pvp players also pay the monthly subscription fee and deserve an equally good game experience as the others.
Objectively untrue statement, just because disc feels better this season has more to do with the class changes they made for this season rather than tier set.
Season two disc suffered from major reliance on cooldowns to do any serious healing. It is the season 3 tier set, not changes to the class, that fixed that issue and allowed disc to shine in high end content, while the class changes themselves mostly simplified the rotation and removed button bloat. While instant cast radiance feels nice, it is nowhere near comparable to having mindbender every 30 seconds or less. Please choose season 3.
We priests would get more talent points freed up with S2 or S1 tier set. Instant Power Word: Radiance is the most noticeable change to gameplay and that improves the QOL of the spec the most. Raw number changes from tierset isn’t as fun or cool as when they acctually change up the playstyle and feeling of the class. But people seem to attribute the current power levels to the current tier set which seems false. They are going to buff whichever set that gets chosen so please vote for S2. Best set disc have ever seen.
For PVP players, this is another slap in the face. The 4th set bonus for disc in the arena or in PVP is just so pointless in season 3. This will again make the disc weaker than others. Too bad that two votes can’t be made. For PVP a selection of the set bonus and for PVE. You just don’t play a 4 set bonus in PVP this season.
We live and die by season 3 tier set, it’s just the truth. Losing all that CDR on pets for some instant cast radiance will be a massive loss to hps and damage in PvE
Again, blatantly untrue, the only real thing this tier set does is to lock us into the squid build. Disc has almost always been a top healer both in raids and m+ no matter which season and the s3 set bonuses weren’t around for those.
