I just watched awc, every game with pres evoker in , they were demolished.
Drustvar they’ve dropped to 15 percent, which is probably just a remnant of that first week pre nerf.
A 30 percent nerf to it’s biggest heal, not taking into account it’s lack of utility, poor cc and short healing range always meant it would begin to fail.
Who cares if you can’t catch one when it has to fly right next to you to heal it’s own team and will eat every cc going.
Blizzard doing a classic heavy handed nerf before everyone had their 2 sets and gear.
because it’s completely busted? Just because disc is even more busted and better in a tournament environment doesn’t mean that pres doesn’t deserve massive nerfs
People just swapped from their drakes to disc because disc right now is the fury warrior of healers and way easier while being even more strong. We’re on EU in case you forgot and people here are tryhard fotm rerollers.
player count is not directly correlated to class strength, especially when we pick a random number such as 1800 in X bracket.
Evoker is also an unpopular class because it’s new since DF and looks stupid
The reason why it dropped is because it’s more difficult and annoying to play than other healers. I’d say Pres has the highest skill ceilling out of all healers.
Also Presvoker counters Resto Druids extremely hard.
Pres evoker hps is still insanely strong. If cc didn’t exist pres would be the best healer by far.
pres just gets absolutely dunked on by ferals, rogues, diamond ice hunters, and mages. You could giga buff press by 20% and it’s still worse than disc/hpal.
If they could have an alternative to emerald communion that would work while cloned or diamond iced then pres would be much better. Having your strongest healing cd be completely useless in most matchups is what kills the spec.
2 types of people complaining. Arena and BG. In BG pres is still very much cracked.
I guess you’re mixing both together with arena.
In PvP I 100% agree. And if they could slow beyond that, it should be a major CD. The fact I can basically root someone with shiv feels more toxic than just full on rooting them because of the duration, and either way, you ain’t going nowhere.
