People wanted it gone because blizzard couldnt balance it, Season 1 Shadow priest was actually very popular back in legion.
It was due to Shadow being uncompetitive in content Espically M+ which drove people to demanding its Deletion. these People arent fighting for Shadow to return to what it is. they want Shadow to be competitive lol it was Never about revertingf shadow to its prior design.
Aswell as When SL Shadow came around people were REALLY Happy, til it got left half done and Launched in a Terrible position which only repeated prior designs failures.
you cant come into a thread, Screech the people who did the podcast havent played shadow enough erven though theyâve all been here Prior legion, Proclaim their Just âinterested in top 5% Gameplay and ouit for their own personal agendasâ
they hijack the thread with ur Own Agenda, making claims wirth 0 Justification 0 Math or Any evidence to prove these guys wrong in any aspect⌠and then expect to be right in the situation.
your clearly Not on the Beta if u think the current Spriest on DF Has any hope of being competitive, it looks good in PvP. but M+ and Raiding⌠Not really no.
soo. i guess i will wait a few months. to hear u âCryingâ when u reliese it really isnt fine. Unless ofcourse the situation does improve.
I too am glad Voidform is gone- But I didnât necessarily hate voidfrom from legion or BFA. It was a very unique and in some cases also a fun mechanic.
⌠However, it was functionally broken.
It made our damage ramped up, something which only ever works in content that allows you to ramp up damage. Not in pvp. Not in M+ (the packs die too fast). If you play Shadow in either of those contents since legion itâs been complete CBT without massive amounts of borrowed power.
I hated that. And I still hate it.
Blizzard has for some reason run into a wall re: game design: Are dots supposed to deal damage or not? How do you design damage over time specs and classes when damage needs to happen now, not yesterday, because of the fast pace of the game?
It doesnât matter if the SP is designed around being able to deal insane damage after +20 seconds if the mobs are dead or arena is over by the time you get there (IF you get there, anyway).
for e.g. i mean⌠2018. This topic was taken from old forums 2017 and created in new one. 2018.
[How To: Get Rid of Voidform - Classes / Priest - World of Warcraft Forums (blizzard.com)](
People, stop spreading false facts. Noone liked void form, but people who never mained shadow pre-legion. And still it wasnât that popular as you claim to be.
#removevoidform movement started when SL beta started and it was massive complain to make it gone, YET it wasnât gone.
Finally, DF will be best expansion for shadow priests after 6 years of failures.
edit: + forums were revamped in 2018 autumn. and old forums gone /read mode , you can not find topics that were made in legion to make VF gone. And there were a lot of them.
The vast majority of WoW players dont use the forum, so trying to debate you on if this was or wasnt popular isnt provable by any means.
Trying to invalidate anyone who did like it by saying ânever played shadow prior legionâ is kinda evidence of how bias u are.
Either way. i have no time for your extreme opinons. DF going to be the best in 6 years of failures? Unless its going to recieve some severe changes. No it defintly wont be lol.
People are whining over current shadow massively and no one rly seems to be praising it at all.
Quite litterally read the forum ur trying to say you know so wellâŚ
Iâve seen myself and a few others openly liking SL shadow on the forum all we wanted to change was the aoe toolkit.
Iâll whine about DF shadow tho.
pretty much i provided proofs, yet you did nothing but spreading false information.
I played shadow since 2004, did not missed a single expansion and almost always subbed. Legion was one of my favorite expansions (except playing shadow priest). So, please. Stop lies, truth always win.
No you provide proof that were players who dislike void form. No doubt, no change will appeal to everyone.
What youve stated is every single player who played priest prior legion was unhappy with void form.
These are 2 different statements.
I played shadow since catalysm, so no not as long as you, however i did like what void was to begin with in season 1 legion, i didnt like the fact it was p*ss poor balanced, and continously gutted however so i did join the masses wanted it gone during the remove void form spam that took place in BFA.
However DF shadow is still only half finished, doesnt work properly and still not great because it still needs further work.
And establishing that isnt asking for a revert to void form either, what its estsblishing is, shadow is not ok, because its balancing is still p*ss poor.
You are clearly passoonate about the subject and clearly DFs reversion from void form has appeased you greatly. However attacking the fact people are saying this needs further work isnt good nor attackong peoples experience on the class when providing much needed feedback.
It being reverted, is of no use if the class still remains unwanted in a dps role.
I would have been absolutely content and praising if all theyâd done was tidied up the aoe rotation and reduced the GCD investment during cooldowns but otherwise left the spec alone.
Somehow those are the two things they managed to make even worse, whilst changing a bunch of stuff most people really didnât mind at all.
Had they just separated Void Eruption from Voidform, and replaced SN with Eruption as our aoe spender, and not brought SFP along. Then I think we wouldâve been in a good spot
all we wanted to change was the aoe toolkit.
