JUSR STOP IT 
Nice aprils fools.
Thoughtsteal is also getting changed into a mix of the old DK Dark Simulacrum and an interrupt on a 40s cd.
Thoughtsteal Peer into the mind of the enemy, attempting to steal a known spell. If stolen, the victim cannot cast that spell for 20 sec.Interrupt an enemy spellcast, preventing any spell in that school from being cast for 0.5. If you successfully interrupt a spell, you may reactivate Thoughtsteal to cast an exact duplicate of that spell.
Can only be used on Humanoids with mana. If youâre unable to find a spell to steal, the cooldown of Thoughtsteal is reset.
I think the fade buff is the best of them all
Looks like a huge nerf to thoughtsteal except that now you can steal any spell, so maybe the extra spells will be better? 0.5s lockout isnât really a lockout.
Using lightning lasso could be fun though
Sounds funny. A Spirit Link variant for Priests. Although as it reads it only distributes HP once and could also be dangerous when youâre positioned badly since when you use it you and your mates are stacked together which makes you vulnerable to AoE stuff.^^
Not really, nobody was using thoughtsteal it was good into mage team to steal sheep but thatâs it (and still other talent were and will still be mandatory).
The lockout looks a bit like the dk pet kick but with reduced lockout.
The spirit link while pressing leap is weird can be broken or troll.
Right but the text doesnât mention a CD change so a 1.5min cd to basically steal an ability and use it once if you successfully kick, seems worse even if it was only used for 20seconds of poly previously. Execpt you could steal lasso and actually have a stun. I guess you could also potentially steal CC immunity from evokers too.
edit: Just read the CD is 40s so not too bad
Dunno I am not a fan of crap pvp talents; there are so many useless ones. Dunno if theyâve made any more rogue changes but the only one they changed is literally never used except when a one shot build (which shouldnât exist) is viable.
There is an addition in the patchnotes for that, where I got the 40s CD I mentioned from.
Name changed from Thoughtsteal to Thoughtsteal [WIP]
Cooldown changed from 1.5 min cooldown to 40 sec cooldown
Duration changed from 0 ms to 500 ms
I donât think anyone ever played the old Thoughtsteal, so this could really be a nice option for their pvp talents, especially with the removal of Dome of Light which opens up a slot. Still a hard competition with the new Spirit Link and Fade ones tho.
No idea about anything SP related, so I canât speak for that.
a PVP talent stronger than one of Restoâs big CDs is madness, it has a shorter CD, pulls both team mates from harm and you donât have to rely on them actually moving into the area and it has a shorter CD. Already the strongest healer in the game aswell
Where do you find these patch notes?
Gonna drool over them sweet sweet priest changes
It sounds pretty strong yes but I think it can also cause some harm if misused. Often I want to save one person from a quick beatdown with SLT and if you do the same with grip and this talent you pull all your mates to you without having a choice which might disrupt them. Dunno, it seems strong but also chaotic to me. I probably wonât use this all the timeâŚ
nerfing DPS
buffing healers
nerfing crit dmg multiplier
buffing defence ( cc nerfs )
ROT DPS classes will be META
affliction lock, boomy, UH dk
I just want to note that new set bonus for disc are much worse the current ones, so disc will get nerfed this way.
And I love that they are looking at the pvp talents, they were so useless and boring most of the time.
The one they really need to rework is Trinity. Itâs silly, it still assumes PW:S has not CD.
To me itâs very situational, nobody will use it I guess.
Sure some spell can be useful but if we take lasso for example you canât predict it, same when in old video in legion I saw a dk stole ice block sure itâs insane but you probably do that 2-3 times every 10years tbh.
Whatâs frustrating the most about pvp talent or even talent in general is some are useful or situational but still good but you never take them cause your slot are for most spec mendatory every single xpac/rework.
Priests are obviously Blizzards favourite. Iâll dream of the day theyâll get nerfed as Iâm tired of playing against them.
Thoughtsteal is kinda bad tho now lol
fade looks sick and the leap of course too, im excited
yes yes, big buffs, but what people dont see is that dome got nerfed from 90 seconds to 180 seconds cd. Iâd prefer that over that new leap talent.
It wont change much of discs current state.
trinity is useless but so is purified resolve and strength of soul. Might aswell remove those. I mean, blizzard is already removing eternal rest and cardinal mending and obviously dome. But the first 3 i noted are just super bad
Rog mage and Priest are
watch disc players say its not OP and they needed it lmao.
Rogs and mages will tell you the same
every single disc priest is playing thoughtsteal vs mage and rdruid on high mmr nowadays
