And you think this is a problem in PvP only? Like… you havent heard how Oracle DPriest is performing in M+ right now? And for the record, Oracle DPriest is “OK” according to Blizzard because of it’s Raid performance.
However, the difference between PvE and PvP is that RShaman is the way it is. There is nothing other than the talent tree we have to play with.
PvPers DO have another option however.
Cap totem is too oppressive? OK. Increase its CD in PvP combat. Or reduce its stun duration in PvP combat (to name 1 disruption spell).
RShaman dosent have enough heal absorbs?
Do that. But remove the “not applied to PvP combat”. Or… Earth Shield gives 3% DR. Say… well its 9% in PvP combat.
My point here is that tuning will NEVER be perfect. Not in PvE. Not in PvP. And there will always be a “meta” spec… But PvPers at-least have the OPTION of having their own tuning on top of the regular “PvE tuning”. PvErs… DO NOT have this option.
Why is this so hard to comprehend? And why do you continue to argue something so blatantly obvious?
I dont need to know how PvP works to know that
Exists. All I need to know is how to read. Something you apparently cant. Because you continue to deny it.
