Fix for Affliction PVP

i would gladly be able to fear after being kicked on shadow or , like a arcane mage, have a root on a frost school.

But im way too picky i guess.

As of right now if affliction gets kicked he can look he favourite series on netflix

actually a pretty good idea +1.

But
 im just oldschool. Just make UA freakin do damage to the dispeller like always.

That one though
 would make dispelling someone low pretty punishing.

I never said everybody has 2+ damaging magic schools. I said they have 2+ Magic Schools.
So I suggest you to read better before you start attempting smart remarks.
And Affli does not have any non-damaging non-Shadow magic school spells either.

You dont need to have 2/3 dmging spellschools, just 2/3 schools at all to be usefull.

For example, imagine casting fire, beeing locked, then cast poly defensive, beeing locked again and drop low you still can iceblock :smiley:

Apologies for you being damaged assuming that everyone on the forums is toxic like you
 I was actually asking what the second school Arcane could get locked on

Well you are asking questions that presuppose something.
AKA it’s like if I asked “why are you retarded?”

I didn’t say that every other caster would have other damaging spell school.
I didn’t say that every other caster could be Locked on their other spell school.
So don’t strawman me.
And yes, I do take Strawman fallacies as offense.

By this:

I meant that every other damaging caster spec does have at least two spell schools.
There is no information on interrupts, no information on whether the school is damaging or not. So it’s disingenous to assume that I said anything about these.

No, Arcane Mage does not have damaging Frost ability (as far as I know), but it has Frost abilities. Compared to Affliction, which doesn’t have other school damaging abilities than Shadow, but neither any other abilities that’s on different Spell school.
Not even Wall (Arcane Mage can use Ice Block when Locked on Arcane).

So back to my original claim.

Affliction is the only caster that does not have multiple magic schools. Every single other damaging caster does have them.
That means including Arcane Mages. They have Frost and Arcane. Affliction has Shadow. That’s it.
Frost and Arcane are two Magic Schools; that means multiple.

OO you are so angry aren’t you?

I ask, what other school does Arcane Mage (Said lock not mage, derp) get locked on? Frost Nova isn’t lock able.

With Frost ring, which is a spell I hadn’t thought so, a normal answer to my question would be
 Frost is the other school because Frost Ring is kick able, meaning frost and arcane.

But I forgot that you aren’t capable of accommodating actual answers to questions. It is possible that actual questions get asked on the Forums, it doesn’t happen often but try remember not everyone is here to be @rseholes.

The answer to my question is frost. Thank you :slight_smile:

Ring of Frost is kickable but it’s talent and most Arcane Mages doesn’t pick it so I don’t count that same way as I don’t count Warlock having slow with Succubus.

And importance of two or more magic schools is that you can do something when you get kicked.
For that you don’t require the other spell school to be kickable, so your question is pointless.

Still trying to argue? The answer to my question whether you think it’s pointless or not, is frost. You knew what the answer is but you’d rather try argue than just answer the question.

Yeah I do, GoSac does good damage in 3s, but vs some stuff you just need to play Haunt so you can stick your pet on the healer to stop drinks

What if affliction-specific become a part of a new school of magic like “Fel” magic? Then at least we can spam fear and drain life when we are kicked on UA

super against.
I know that time changes and class design is nothing like it used to be but im heavly against changes that makes class design easier (like subterfuge for all these pro rogues saying blind>sap is easy).

If you get kicked in shadow then you get kicked, fake it.

The problem comes when the class has nothing else to cast (for god sake even shadowpriests have shield or mass dispell lol).

We cant continue to band aid problems that aint the problem (if it makes sense).

We, as players and payers, need to demand for better class design thats it.

Why did warlocks all of the sudden forgot how to cast shadowbolt if destru or incinerate if aff/demo?

Why was searing pain removed and rain of fire tied to destru?

These are the type of things we need to demand
 better class design not more handholding.

One of the most fun interactions there is in arena is the cast vs kick one and we shouldnt be asking for unpunishing mechanics.

Thats my pov.

TLDR: give us back fire school

technically all Affliction spells are Fel, but for game purposes it’s shadow
so if we were to change spells to Fel, we would need to change all of them

Why can’t the affliction-specific spells (the DoTs) be a different school (just like every spec has it’s own school on top of the base)? You could call it fel or whatever

I don’t think that is true, lorewise. Not that lore means much nowadays.

Affliction nowadays has so many issues that I honestly can’t see them being solved before the next xpac.

thats what we said in legion
 and wasnt as bad as it is right now.

They just dont know what to do with the spec. thats pretty clear.

They actually told us that they dont have any other idea what to do with the soulshard mechanic else than using it for UA


I mean common


yeah not like Cata (utility) and MoP/WoD (damage+utility) didnt happen LOL.

I dont like for people to be fired, but i’ll just leave it here.

If any of us who work was this bad at their job, you would have a 50+% chance to be fired within months.

I cant understand how you can be this bad, cost so much money to the company and still continue having your job.

Im gonna look for that post, it needs to be somewehre

I mean, it’s not like the answer is difficult: just revert the changes! Not just for warlocks, for every class.
