PvP in SOD

Sod has been fun for the last couple of phases, however the state of pvp is truly a disgrace, so much so that I’ve started thinking that even RETAIL PVP might be more fun and balanced than this ***********.

And don’t get me started that world of WARcraft is a PVE game.

I seriously hope that the dmg reduction aura will help something, but I don’t have high hopes for it. For instance, a rogue deals as much a burst as a shaman, yet a shamans whole CC toolkit is a slow, meanwhile a rogue can: Sap, Blind, Stun, Gouge and having defensives like evasion, sprint , vanish or let’s check a retpala, who jumps down on gold mine in bubble and kills 2 players and spend the remaining 4 seconds in bubble to heal himself full.

Great design! Love it. Complete waste of time to pvp in sod right now.

Please for the love of god, spend more than 2 minutes a month on the state of pvp instead of balancing classes around 1-2 minute boss fights that can be done without monitors.

When you take a look on the work put into sod raids, and compare it to the work put into the sod pvp events (where the first one was also more a pve event) then you will know what blizzard cares more about.

SEASON OF CASHGRAB.
Honestly, i have seen free private servers with less bugs / better pvp balancing.
I might just Ascend back to them in near future.

All i hear is “Waaah waah, i was so overtuned i could kill all classes by doing nothing last phase and this phase i am having trouble with 1 or 2 classes when they engage me first”

Thats why everyone kills shamans on sight, its what they deserve.
Last phase when you were extremely overtuned and anyone else complained it was a “skill issue” now that you are average its all blizzards fault.

There has never been balance in the classics, stop whining about every topic. This is a game of tricks, consumables and friends who will come to help you. YOU will never be able to play here in the current version.

I mean if you ever believed retail pvp to be less balanced than classic (even before sod)… you had a serious problem. But you are probably just a troll

Good Bye, there is the door :yawning_face::wave:

Idd they put all the time into pve. Maybe you didnt notice, but vanilla was about pve as well :smiley: I mean pvp in vanilla wasnt even designed at all, its just an appendix. Having 50s CC times should have been a slight hint. Having couple of AVs running on a several thousand ppl server was a pretty good indicator what ppl were playing back in 2004. Its just the reality. They probably dont even have a person for pvp in SoD thats why its even a bigger fiesta than before. Vanilla just unfixable pvp wise. They would probably do better with original game beeing at least TBC.
