Retribution off GCD skills

Hi, we currently have loh and rebuke off gcd. I think defensive cooldowns and mobilty skills should also be off GCD.

I suggest the following skills not be on GCD. What do you guys think?
Divine Shield
Shield of Vengeance
Divine Steed

You said “Divine Steed” twice, I hate “Divine Steed”. But sure why not. I like fast pace gameplay anyway, I personally don’t mind. But the actual WoW Devs hate it. So, I don’t know if this is gonna get a pass by them.

Agreed! I think our main offensive and defensive abilities should be off GCD to make gameplay more fun and fluid. BoF, DS and BoP included.

I think only defensive abilities should be off the GCD. And that’s for all classes. It was too many offensive abilities cluster-macros that made things too insta-bursty.

What I’d like to see is what they had at one point talked about; some additional on-cast effect on offensive abilities that are on the GCD. So something could happen during the time frame that you cast Wings and your next ability.

for me
Divine Steed: with its GCD is very bad 1,5 second gcd then 3 sec of ridding a mad horse feels just terrible since it was released.
Divine Shield: is most powerfull defensive in the game heavyly limited by its cd, however still superstrong so i can understand why its on gcd ( i hated passive autobuble from legion) some skill should be involved.
Shield of Vengeance: this ability is just stupid it realy is, i know its some kind of retribution, but i realy dont like abilities like karma. i wish to remove the dmg component of it and rename the ablity. The dmg component should be moved to pvp talent three where its actualy useful, gcd should be here in upgraded pvp version only. Anyway its nothing more then sligthly reworked anti magic buble from Wotlk.

Only thing I can agree on coming off the gcd would be steed. Short burst movement speed where you’re gcd locked for half of it doesn’t feel fun.

Divine steed is the only one that needs a small buff or no gcd imo, other 2 spells are really powerfull as they are already and there’s a solid talent to nerf their cd’s.
