First it was “omg you kill our rotation”, “this feels so bad now”, “i don’t mind the damage nerf, but muh rotation ded naw”.
Now that blizzard took a bit of pity on the paladin community and reverted the judgement cooldown nerf, the paladin andies INSTANTLY move the goalpost to “please un-nerf the damage too”
LMAO way too predictable man.
Look at these bums man: “45% is just such a weird number 35% seems better” like yeah ok, BASED ON WHAT?
can you actually believe this guy, trying to pass this off as “other number just seems to read better”!?
I don’t disagree with a damage nerf at all, but 45% is just a weird number to land on and it doesn’t look good to read either especially for less experienced players. 35% would read better.
-one of the commenters on the thread.
unhinged bro.
ok, 45% is “weird”?
fine, make it 50% blizzard.
that’s a nice round number, right?
show them to stop while the gittin’s are gud to teach them a lesson in greed.
GREED IS ONE OF THE 7 DEADLY SINS BTW, YOU PLAY PALADIN, ACT LIKE IT.
Bruh, how many paladins have really hurt you in life? its like a new post every day about Paladins…
IF i was to hazzard a guess at why he said 35%, id say its because they have already nerfed it by 15% on the T2 2Pc, rounding it off at 50% instead of 60%
but either way, if it performs too badly, i guess it will be buffed again in future weeks. Im just happy with the 4pc revert.
What they Could have done, is merge em into a Relic to be honest. I woulda been happy with a “Judgement cooldown is reduced by 5 seconds, but no longer consumes the seals on cast, but damage is reduced by 50%”
i have a passionate hatred for paladins.
why?
couple of reasons:
they are alliance only, and i only ever play horde - that makes them worse than any other class in regards to faction pride (cringe as that is).
they are honorless curs in regards to pvp, they will attempt to gank, and when they fail they literally book it for the nearest guard or instance portal with their tail between their legs, preferably under the safety of their bubble which feels mega cheap - its pure cowardice.
the vast majority of them think they got omega skill when really their class is just OP.
we have a lot of obnoxious paladin posters on both the US and the EU forums, which makes it very hard not to hate that class as a result. i have yet to see a humble paladin poster anywhere in sod forums, they always exude this “better than you” aura, and that drives me up the wall.
every virtue a paladin is supposed to have is nowhere to be found in any paladin player in the game, and that makes me mad, because its an RP fail.
if i had to hazard a guess, i’d say he’s just looking to mitigate the nerf out of selfish reasons using the most lame excuse in the book. “it reads better” are you kidding me?
get outta here.
don’t hold your breath. i think these particular nerfs are here to stay.
paladins will never be able to one-shot again, and the copium they are about to abuse will require factory production to keep up with the demand.
pretty sure that’s the point of these nerfs.
blizzard is not looking to give you an alternative to T1 and T2 set bonuses, they are looking to make you stop using them entirely, as a crutch or otherwise.
they want you to get the new gear from nax and scarlet enclave.
I play on alliance side, almost every evening, sometimes during the day, I have never seen you on bg, also I have not seen you in the open world, but I see you here on forum every day in different topics where you complain about paladins, in my opinion you are crazy
Some of the damage gets shifted to Crusader strike since they buffed t2.5 2p bonus. Couple that with the new set and you’ll still get dumpstered in a global and whine. Nothing changes.
my shaman is already high warlord.
i don’t do much pvp on him these days.
priest is general, and i stopped doing pvp because the rewards are garbage.
i have done plenty of pvp both inside and outside of bg, just not so much these past 2 phases.
if you are looking for me specifically in open world, you might be able to occasionally find me in EPL or around Kara.
not much open world or pvp content left for me to do at this point.
careful what you wish for.
as a paladin you deffo do not want to run into my shaman.
especially after the reset tonight.
Let me guess your spec
You’re using a tank rune that reduces all damage by -40% + critical hits against you by -15% and increases HP by +30%, right? You’re a tank shaman!
What a surprise, must feel great to be a PvP monster jumping in place and spamming Flameshocks on 6 targets simultaneously every 6 seconds, which deals more damage than all my Shadow Priest DoTs, you’re truly a real PvP player! Playing the most OP meta, and somehow crying about paladins every day
