I was so looking forward to making this legendary. Now I'm not sure if I want it anymore. Thanks Blizz for making all my work for nothing now.
Thank god im a tottaly non meta night fae paladin !
welp, another legendary to the bin.
Ret pally sucks since WoD. If not this legendary,pay some attention to it for a change! 2 rogue specs at the top are not getting touched ,meanwhile,while they also have 2 specs that are OP in m+
This leggo was one of the main reasons ret was gonna perform semi-decent in raids and m+. with this nerf (in this magnitude at least) blizz condemned rets to low B tier. Many of us have already prepared for this leggo to perform well. Also this change this close to M release is just a low blow. Cant even remember the last time ret was ahead of the pack. Thanks muchly :/
This sucks. I was really looking forward to using this in mythic+ instead of Tempest all the time, but I guess I'll just keep using Tempest... even on Tyrannical...
At this point simply remove all covenant legendaries, to reduce amount of time spent on balancing legendary powers.
Thank God. This legendary was the reason Kyrian ret was a +1300 dps gain over the 2nd best Covenant.Won't have to feel so bad about playin the stuff I like. >.>
Ah yes, reduce the capabilities of the class as a whole rather than buff the underperforming options. If this legendary was so outrageous and made the other covenants obsolete (They do less damage regardless) why do they nerf it on a class that brings barely anything to a raid other than damage instead of buffing the other covenants of the same spec to actually be competitive? I don't see why you're happy about this, making other covenants worse instead of buffing your own.
tbh go make a riot and they'll revert it, that should be the default on every nerf they do
First of all I am moslty Pve Ret player so I will be regarding this change considering PVE content.Second I don't want to play Holy or Protection to be viable. So please don't compare switching Ret to Holy/Prot to like MM to BM or Fire to Frost spec It's more like switching from Vengeance Demon Hunter to Guardian Druid.I have no idea what is going on with Blizzard and Rets. I mean they just implemented the Raider.ioscore in to their game so I hope they have any idea how to use them right. I mean it's taking literally2 mins to check how Ret is performing so far up to this point.In season 1 of m+ Ret paladins was one of the worst dps spec and which is the consequence of it the leastpicked one. The only specs that was below them are from multi dps spec classes which for example arms,feral, enchancement, frost etc. Every of this class has a other dps spec that is performing far better than ret.To futher prove this Top Ret paladin in season one have lower score than EVERY CLASS IN THEIR TOP/ONLY DPS SPEC.And this trend contiunues and we are still on the bottom of every class in their dps specs in Season 2 up to this point.(all i want from Blizzard is to go to raider.io and just check it. If you don't believe me you probably believethe webside you cooperate with). By the way I would love to see how some blizzard emploee tries to find a pug group on a +15 keyas a Ret paladin.Lets get over to the raid now. In order to check Rets in raid just go on warcraftlogs.com so you can see all of the guilds reportingtheir raid runs in there. In patch 9.0 in Castle Nathria checking the 90th Percintile of perfomances Rets are 12/24 of all specs (on all performances Rets are even lower).But wait if you will just take the best dps specs from every class they are 11/13 in rankings! Whatchanged in 9.0.5? Literally nothing still 10/13 of all best spec for each class.What we can see is that regarding the best dps specs of all classes we are practically the bottom dps class for m+and almost bottom of the dps class in raid since the start of the expantion to its finish.So the 9.1 and every Ret is like "WOW finally the new legendary looks awesome, it synergizes very well with our conduits, help us fill the the low no burst dps windows, thats so cool!Finally this Raid/Mythic+ season will be great!" And then comes and Blizzard three days before mythic SoD sees the first sims and BOOM it hit them hard. "Who let this Retribution paladin wheelchair to the top 5-6 DPS specs!"And the consequences we can see now. I know I talked more about Rets overall than this change but I need to argument why I think this change is so unfair. Well I quess all there is left is to say thank you Blizzard for forever motivating me to push this wheelchair class in to their limits just to beable to compete with others.
it doesnt even hit into ES window
Revert it back please :(
Let's nerf the damage of the class that don't bring any rly useful raid buff and NOW have damage... why? If u wanna nerf Ret cuz this is the only reason for the nerf, give us a raid buff or more utility like the new pvp talent, ret couldn't stand in the comp for 1 heroic week and got nerffed ClapI won't even comment on the rets in the dgs, but if you play you know how hard it is to stay all day to be accepted in a +15 and now a +10
Im playing protection paladin since BFA. I started shadowlands with ilusion on this class, and Ive seen nerfs again and again to this class until launch. Then we have the legendaries, a bit poor ones on Prot Paladins. All tanks have at least on interesting legendary with an improve on defensive and offensive capabilities except Prot Paladin, Who has only offensive interesting ones. At least one legendary with true potential, and they Nerf It like 3 times to trash. Paladins are the worst tanks right now after Blood Dk Buff. What do you want for us Blizzard? All this is ridiculous.
Its important to say that this legendary provides 3 avenger shield, if you guys havent already realise it
Just look at legendaries like ursocs fury remembered on druid or reprisal on warrior and compare it with any legendary of the protection paladin
This Hurts more than that Crazy ret trinket nerf in Nighthold...that wasnt nerfed for warriors.....I love being a Ret main, I have a martyr complex. Str8 Bliz dumpster fire....
