Rake is 900 Dot, ticks every 1 sec even in PVP

feral druid with t3 is absolutly ridiculous, doing almost 1k dps just in bleeds…

Genuinely found it funny. I had a druid mangle me, rake and then just start capping AB flag and I died without even fully realising. SURELY this gets looked at. Why even have PVP servers if this is what pvp is going to be. We’re literally turning players into NPCs who are 10 levels higher or lower.

This is quite literally a death sentence for my r14 char for the cost of 2 items and 35 energy?

Please, any ferals out there with these 2 pieces. Test whether you can be nude aside from these maybe your wep and see what the limit is of who you can kill

Sod team already said plenty of times they wont focus on pvp.
Its been like this since phase 1 i doubt another thread will fix things.

and yet they’ve added the stam buff to BG’s, reduced healing, added a resil mechanic globally to pvp, adjusted runes and skills to be less effective against players and even added PVP events to each of the level brackets during release.

Highlighting a few skills and how classes are currently playing out in pvp isn’t people asking for the focus to redirect solely to pvp. It’s certainly less popular than raiding. But if they didn’t want complaints or feedback or posts like this then they should have done away with PVP servers, BG’s and reitemization of gear towards pvp as that’s what incentivizes players such as myself to play the game in the style I do.

The only thing I can ever find in relation to what you’ve said is that they don’t want to do arenas in SoD as that would require balancing mechanics around class comps etc, which I agree with. But if you can link me something that says otherwise and that they’ve turned their backs completely on PVP, then I’ll just accept it, leave and be quiet

meanwhile my 6warlock dots don’t hit for half of that amount :dracthyr_crylaugh:

i dont care i will keep complaning untill they change this nonsense. they are still happy to take our money they should take our feedback too. by the way why would they even open BGS then?

Why are you still here?

Why does it bother you what people on a DIFFERENT server is doing?

You can just sit on your pve server and live happy and content.

Shaman crying about hero class is the funniest think I read all day.

Try to have an original thought. But don’t hurt yourself.

I’m bored of saying the same stuff to the same echo chamber of morons. I could care less if shamans got nerfed, doesn’t make anything I’ve said less true. It’s almost as though there could be various issues to address :thinking:

Yeah wtf is this? I literally just got killed by a feral using rake and just ran away while I died from it. 600-700 dmg per tick in pvp.

Cool story bro

Shamans and hunters complaining about something being broken but haven’t been able to objectively do it about their own class for 6 phases? Insane. :dracthyr_crylaugh:

Flame shock and tank shaman has been W key ape game play since its creation

Hunter rapid fire killshot took any skill from hunters needing to play their class into look at me whiff my trap into thin air and global people before they get into range.

What about 3k icelances from mage?

Evo frozen orb deleting people stood at hte flight master while they cold snap frozen orb block again lmao.

(Should add this edit cause people are pepega, as of about 6am the bonus is completely decativated)

If you are still dying to feral druid its a skill issue

So what, get over it. yes there are a lot of issues with all what you mentionned but so what ? are you suggesting that just because shaman and hunt are broken we have to remain silent about new broken stuff being implemented ? i dont buy that

But so what? There are issues with it the same way that you are in here complaining with feral. They have been issues FOR MONTHS in regards to shamans and hunters. Where is the changes? Where is the addressing of it? Why is it fundamentally okay to nerf/balance one thing and then completely ignore others that are the exact same level of stupid and have been for 4x the amount of time with the same amount of complaints directed towards them?

The issues i’ve stated above are equally as important as the ones you stated.

So what get over it i guess.

No longer works in pvp as of today according to class discord.

yeah and what makes you think i dont agree with you on those issue ? this is just not the topic you are refering to, no need to be mad about it.

Good, next they’ll disable all the other broken stuff from other classes/specs too, right? Oh wait, can’t nerf the classes that the “PvPers” are playing and globaling everyone in deadwind pass with :smiley:

do you guys not have Stoneforms ?

Help me out, why is this alwyas the response to anything which needs addressing? It’s such a childish thing to say. Like if a kid is in trouble they’ll immediately try throw their sibling under the bus with “they did it first!”

This isn’t a post about shamans and hunters. There’s plenty of threads in regards to them, and there should be! The vast majority can agree on these classes being massively imbalanced as well as other classes. But this was about rake, why? Because it’s only recently become an issue, and it was quickly becoming one that was dwarfing the rest.
Shamans suck (according to most alli) but it didn’t matter if a feral had already nicked you with rake and ran off cause they probably wouldn’t have got to you anyway!

Here’s a thought! Perhaps quite abstract amongst these communities, why don’t we criticise everything which is imbalanced and accept that other classes and other players experiences are worthwhile and pressure blizzard to fix it all. Instead of picking fights and arguments with each other resulting in a tangent, ultimately ending with “skill issue”.

Something to add as well! If there is an OP class; lets say paladins complaining about another - lets say shaman tanks. Rather than responding with the oh so hilarious “imagine X class complaining, you must be terrible!”. I think the better perspective to have is “crap, paladins delete me in under a second, if they’re complaining about tank shamans they must REALLY be OP!”. I guarentee, if people actually thought about things in this way rather than being so butt-hurt and reactionary, the game would be so much better for it.

Because its to make a direct comparison to everything else that needs to be addressed and has fallen on deaf ears for months, the same classes everytime are repeat offenders and nothing gets changed about it. If you cant cleanse shaman flame shock vs shaman, you die. What difference between that and 1 button bleed? Flame shock hit 6 targets.

(I’m also not disagreeing with the rake nerf it absolutely should’ve but other classes are doing the same thing and have been for months, damage should’ve been nerfed by 50% but tick rate kept the same, or rework set bonus to be rip instead of rake)

Hunters deleting everything in sight on a 1min CD. Broken in PvP for months now.

I’ve criticized the other things look at my post history. As i stated in another post any cat player saw this coming a mile off but the trade off between cat being broken for 1 week and Shaman/Hunter being broken for months is insane.

Paladin also insanely strong. I never said you were terrible. I said its ironic that the 2 biggest offending classes throughout all of SoD are the ones complaining when they are on the end of the press one button with little to no counter play and just watch your character die… this is what we have been complaining about for months… and no changes no acknowledgement nothing.

Burn rune is insane, shamans gaining that much SP on helm rune is bonkers. 100% increased damage and spell power from int increased by 150%.

Mage 3k icelances are insane. Even more so with evo bonus now. Soloing everyone at flight master with frozen orb.

Hunter spamming killshots every 1min. Doesn’t even need to land traps anymore.

Tank shaman most obnoxious thing in the game 90% block, spams flame shock and fish for procs and W key at you the whole time.

Ele shaman deleting people at LHC into burrow trinket

Paladin seal twisting for entire HP bar

Fix these too. You cannot change one thing for the “Good of the game” And leave other things in that are offending in the same manner. It makes no sense.
