A solution needs to provided for Season of Discovery as Shamans are once more turning their brains off and walking into melee purging people to death. It’s a braindead playstyle that’s with too much of an impact.
You need to add a cooldown to it at the very least. Purge is the entire reason why Shamans dominate as this spell neutralizes the entire utility that Alliance could bring. We can stomach the one shots, we can stomach the tankiness. But when a brainlet shaman is spamming purge, is tankier than any other melee and that’d be the most effective playstyle, we’re starting to lose our minds on the alliance side.
And yes, compared to that, Avenger’s Shield is a spring flower.
Funny thing is, I haven’t even used purge in PVP once and I’ve still been clapping paladins left and right. But thanks for bringing it up, I’ll start using purge now as well
it’s time to add dwarf shaman and undead paladin
all these runes were designed in a gameplay where factions have both classes
add it even in Era is needed
