Bashiok Wrote:We wanted to let everyone know that we’re working to address the miscommunication that occurred regarding the introduction of new item level 371 PvP gear, and share our current plans.

For background, many players spent their Honor Points on item level 365 gear once Season 9 ended only to find that more powerful item level 371 gear was available when season 10 started. We should have communicated ahead of time that this was going to be the case, and we apologize for the mistake.

We’ve been working over the past few days to evaluate and determine the best course of action to offer players some kind of compensation for those who were caught off guard by the new gear. The plan we’ve found to be achievable within an acceptable amount of time is to provide players who were affected with 4000 Honor Points. This extra Honor would function similarly to the currency down-conversion in that it would stack over the cap, but you would not be able to earn more until you spent under the 4000 cap.

The process of determining who was affected is certainly the most difficult task of this issue, and the entire process of figuring out who should receive the Honor or not and then delivering it isn’t anything less than a giant undertaking. We’re still evaluating many of the processes that will be required to make this happen. Although we’re fairly confident we can pull it off, there is still a chance it may not be possible. Due to other service related work the soonest we would be able to distribute this Honor is the 7/19 Tuesday maintenance. More complicated solutions we discussed could take months to implement, but we felt getting something to those affected as quickly as possible was more important.

Although some of this is still uncertain we felt it best to let people know as far in advance as possible to allow for adequate planning. We’ll be able to provide more information and specifics on how this process will be carried out, and the requirements to receive the 4000 Honor, next week.

Again, we apologize for any inconvenience caused by our miscommunication. We greatly appreciate those who took the time to give us constructive feedback on the matter.

Dude everywhere I see Druids are worst healers ATM. I can't have rogue Druid Mage comp anymore. Gonna have to be me Druid lock and or me rogue priest.

But won't having two separate teams pineapple up our rating?

Quote:The only time ret pulls similar dmg in pvp is when all cooldowns are up. Outside of that, ret's pressure is awful unless you get a string of divine purpose procs.

The big crit heals is a gimmick. They'll probably nerf it for the same reason they gave wog a cd in the first place.

Quote:This.

All of you are vicious rivals at best. Grats. You can be gimmicky in brackets where gimmicky is tolerated.

Anytime you play above 2700 ret pressure is next to 0 as wings will not last more than a single hammer anytime even with salvation covering.

Our damage output outside of cooldowns is pathetic compared to the on demand damage of every single class. I'll be content when recklessness, berserk, shadowdance, shamanistic rage are spellstealable / dispelable.

The lack of a snare means anytime your partner (hopefully one with a snare) is CC'd you yourself are experiencing 0 uptime. This is a pretty fatal flaw.

I also play a DK above 2700 and the difference between the two in terms of survivability, uptime, offensive control, and damage is clear as day with the DK being superior in every category. In any composition you can name where a ret is viable, he can be replaced with either a DK/warrior/rogue and the comp is unquestionably better. Therein lies the problem.

So please. Stop pretending.

The only talents that make sense to get are Predatory Strikes, Infected Wounds, +1 Stampede, Thick Hide, Natural Reaction, and Perseverance. Predatory Strikes and the second point in Stampede seem to be only useful for adds. Thick Hide and Natural Reaction are only useful in Bear Form, and I don't really know how well I could function as an backup tank with cat gems/enchants.

Right now I'm leaning toward +3 Perseverance just to get some passive survivability and I dunno where the last point would go.

There's my main. :> Works pretty well AFAIC.

I hate how I haven't been on in 2 months. I hate summers and not having any money. Ugh. I feel bad. I could have been there with my guild to do Fire Lands. Apparently they're realm 3rd on some of the bosses.

Wewt. http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/us/magtheridon/Simplicity

P.S. Drood healers are bawls mostly. Good HoTs over others, that's about it. The same with tanks. Droods shine in DPS but fall short in the others. It's what happens when you have such a versatile class I guess.

OB3LISK Wrote:Yeah what Russell said.

This fucking rogue doesn't want to go subtly he wants assassination. Am about to ditch him and get a lock Druid Mage comp, or pineapple them both, get my priest friend who went disc and find a feral Druid.

FMP is the new overpoweredness. I don't even think it's from ccs.

OB3LISK Wrote:Dude, I was practicing 2s with this 2200 DK who went on his boom kin with 1590 resilience.

He said I sucked at PVP and to aim for challenger and I suck at ccing so I would have to do spell cleave comp since it's the easiest most face roll one.

I did four arenas with that Resto Druid of mine to help him hit cap. 4-0 wins. The rogue last night went to help him hit cap. 4-6 wins. And they want to start practicing 3s and I don't want to waste it.

wtp is spell cleave.
