Frost mage huge nerfs?

I’ll be honest I disregarded what the original poster wrote once I realised the first sentence was demonstrably untrue.

No, no rights. I spend a lot of money in McDs bit I don’t go in there and demand they buff my big mac with an extra patty. They can’t listen and act on every misinformed, nonsensical rant now can they. Every spec would be buffed every day, it’d be chaos.

i do actually ask not demand my big mac with an extra patty and no piccles and they deliver, thats why they keep me as a customer, if you want to be a mindless sheep with no voice thats your own right but you cant force us to do the same, the last time i checked we had a ‘‘democracy’’ Sir.

You do come across very polite when you ask them yes. What’s a democracy? Ironic you put speach marks around it. You think blizz is a democracy? Think we all voted in bobby do ya? Also I’m a Lord not a Sir, got it for a birthday present.

yeap i see you are lurking the forums getting ready to reply as soon as i post… you are not really playing nor enjoying the game, so for me you have been indentified as a gatekeeper, everything we say gatekeepers will come up and defend the corp no matter what is right or wrong thats their sole objective, to slience others prove them wrong and prove that the corp is always correct, i wont be comenting more about your kind but you can keep on gatekeeping what you think its best and i will continue to speak my ideas freely about the upcoming and unjustice nerfs. That is my thinking and there is nothing you can do to stop me or change my mind as long as i dont break the rules and i behave nice, at the end of the day my purpuse is pure and not vile, i want the best for the game and mage is a huge part of this game. Mage lacks survivability, hes alter time and iceblock can be dispelled or purged or spellstealed so the way it was made it was fine now with the upcoming change i see a big reduction in icelance procs which is huge deal for gameplay especially in pvp where hes lacking survivability, (try to cast a frostbolt or sheep when 2 melees are on top of you bursting you). So pretty much you cripple the class for PvP and you nerf it for PvE. Thats a fact and 99% will agree upon that. Tomorrow we will see it go live also…

There is only one Lord for me, calling you sir was over graduation, you are nothing more than a gatekeeper.

Can’t wait for tomorrow when the new patch comes out and it’s blatantly apparent frost mage is still good.

Who is it? Is it Alan Sugar? Nelson?

Man, I want to change my name to gatekeeper now. That was excellent forum content.

Ice block can’t be purged or spellstolen. Also has a new talent which your gonna like.

I know very little about pvp but I know you don’t try and finish a cast when you have two melee on you!

Also reset is Wed on the eu forums? It is Monday today right?

Yours truely,

The Gatekeeper.

Still good is kind of an understatement, it’ll be the best mage spec for nearly all pve content and S-tier in general

Yeah Ive been talking to the guy implementing the apl / SIM stuff. Things absolutely obscene but I’m also willing to be just a little bit wrong when it goes live.

If everything is as it seems, it’ll be utterly broken.

My Lord is none of your bussiness, i will confess him when the time comes and only if he gives me the blessing to do so. Until then this was my feedback about the upcoming mage ‘‘changes’’ in simple words its a nerf and i report to blizz that its not good at all for the game balance. Now blizz take my feedback or leave it i wont fight over it, i dont really care its your game after all… But as an active member of this community i have every right to speak and express my opinion, no one can deny me the freedom of speech.

The truth to be said, this is the best expansion blizz ever created by far, it doesnt even come close to anything else…, i just hope they dont cripple mage…!

mage is the only class that when reworked it gets weaker x)

They have changed the patch notes on live servers, so we dont really know yet, after we run some tests and gameplays we will have the final verdict about the mage rework.

Seems pretty good to me chief.

nope for me 40% of my PvP dps is gone. sorry its a PvP nerf PvE aoe buff single target nerf. GG blizz! you nailed mages!

RIP MAGE…

Yet theres 3 other posts calling mage blatently broken in pvp lol. Interesting :joy::joy:

It wasn’t a popular class, lots of mages rerolled or just left the game because all 3 specs were really bad to play, all for their own crappy reasons. We weren’t even under powered just not fun. If you don’t like ray then don’t play it, whole point of the talent trees is having choice. And if you don’t like casting in pvp why do you play a caster?

agreed ray of frost is cool its just hard to apply especially in arena when you are under pressure and if you get it countered you just lost your no1 dmg dealer unlike SP and locks and boomkins that press on dots and casting not channeling, i just think channeling it may looks cool but its not meant for pvp.

This is extremely misleading. You can see the fire mortar like attacks doing most of the dmg.

I thought it was somewhat of a given that I wasn’t looking at the raw number, also every buff / effect that was affecting the Frost Mage was also affecting the shadow priest.

on this pull it looks crazy but I checked his longer vod and other dungeons pulls. the SH performs just as well or even better still.
