I feel that the removal of repentance has significantly reduced the skill level for ret in pvp. Having been playing many solo shuffle games since the new patch, we simply are just smashing damage without any finesse in setting up cc to close out games or peeling for team mates. Repentance raised the skill bar significantly for people that wanted to use it. Blinding light is just terrible for a 1.5 min cd. Majority of the time it lasts a second as ppl damage through it too easily or it’s DR’d. I don’t believe culling rets abilities was needed we already had minimal buttons compared to most other specs which needed some pruning (shaman looking at you)
I feel it would be great if its not returned as a choice node with blinding light then at least a pvp talent as our current ones are very limited.
