Who's idea was it to give paladins a pet?

Who had the great idea to give paladins a pet which has the same bug as hunter pets when it comes to pursuing stealthed rogues?

Rogue runs from paladin. Rogue think they have escaped when they can re-stealth. Squire ignores stealth. Squire follows rogue. Paladin follows squire. Squire hits rouge. Rogue is dead.

This^ . Remove the paladin pets already, class that can 1-2global anything while totally immune bubble for 12 seconds dont need a PET ontop…
Pet Crits 400+ and Heals the paladin for 600±
Wake up blizzard nerf paladins.

Prot paladins facerolling anyone (holy shield 0sec global cd, procs 10times in 2 sec if hit fast and you killed yourself. Same as Shamans lightning shield was before the fix).

Ret and their “sealtwisting” or should we say TREEtwisting with tierset kills anything in 1x Hammer fo justice stun. Cant counter a bubble in any way, specially not with that PONY joke of ability you gave them 100% speed for 3 seconds WHILE bubbled hello!? Also bubble can break any form of CC, not fair at all.
Make paladins bubble reduce their DAMAGE by 100% , not their attackspeed!?? its not vanilla… They got 69 instant abilitys already who cares about the attackspeed…

Also Reckoning needs fix in prot talent should only be usable with a 1hand weapon and ONLY 1 extra swing like Wotlk version and remove that headrune that makes it proc another 10% ontop of all criticals …Time to fix this unbalanced s**t not even fun seeing them keyturning bubbleboys. You run behind them, they wheelchair steer around with the arrows like speed of grandma, kills you instantly, even if they lvl 50 with green gear. Because, bubble, pony, PET, reckoning, holy shield, exo spam… List is long…
All while immune…

Kindly asking the Blizzard dev to play the game, pick some classes and fight a paladin, see what you think. If its fun Or just completely broken…

Only way a paladin might loose is if It:
1* Goes AFK mid fight.
2* Running in wrong direction with bubble PONY.
3* Has bubble on cooldown. <-Never met one so far.

It’s ok. Blizzard has been trying make paladins a swiss-army-knife kind of class since P1 by giving them tools for every situation. This is just another step in that direction. I wouldn’t be surprised if they’d give them stealth next. Either way since paladins are Blizzard’s precious little flowers this is unlikely to change.

Balefire bolt pierces bubble tho :grin::grin::grin:

GL getting that 2.5 sec cast off before you dead. If succeed the cast, tickle the paladin for 1k dmg, if you crit on the other hand be prepared to take 30% damage in return from Eye for an eye talent. GG…

I dont do 1vs1, but gl to the paladin rushing in at BS with his bubble active

Dont remove nothing undead rogues deserve this. I vote Blizzard give them 2 pets instead one and hunters aswell.

it doesn’t go through divine shield anymore.
blizzard fun policed it out.

now divine shield has 0 counters and is truly OP again.

btw yes that stupid squire pet has gotta go.

they did what? where is that post lol

Thats weird, on the US forums the devs said it was intended behaviour

the clown zirene did, wouldnt take that one serious to begin with

Yes, that was the dev, i see that now acording to alot of ppl on the forum he/she cant be trusted

i don’t have official source.
mage friend told me he could no longer kill paladin with balefire if divine shield is up.

guess they lied.

either that or my mage friend is getting a spanking for lying to me.

i could log in tmr at a set time and we test that lol

i don’t have a mage myself and i doubt i can get friendo to come online at a set time. but i can try.

Pretty much this, somehow they gave the tutorial class from Vanilla all this, its time some of their wheelchair capacities get removed.

As the target audience for Palas in Vanilla was 9 year olds who had never played any MMO in the past, it made sense for them to have bubble in its old form - now it makes 0 sense.

so i asked my mage friend to clarify on this, and he went “oh wait i mean banish”.
Balefire cannot penetrate banish, so apparently it still goes through divine shield.

gave him a slap for being wrong and making me spread falsehoods as a result.

It is not only a pet. It is their companion. The guy that help them get off their armor after being repeatedly owned by shamans. The guy that tender their shore parts of their bodies and do them a good massage. Paladins needs this.
