Brute-forcing the game to make your new gameplay mechanic more appealing...That's not game design. It's Blizzard on-going crusade against more features which have been totally fine for years. And I find this change unacceptable.
As a shaman main I was going to use that daze item anyway so does not bother me, and I really can't see why people rage so much about it you will all have flying after 3-4 weeks anyway and then use the saddlechute.
Mount equipment is just worse than what we have now. Now you can run a water strider and get daze immunity with a resounding protection trait. In 8.2, you lose that. Unsubbed a month ago and I still track the news, but stuff like this makes me not even consider coming back.
Let the !@#$storm begin
These changes for the introduction of Mount Equipment have seemed reductive and stupid.It could be counter-balanced at least somewhat if we had two mount equipment slots (per mount).One could be your +20% Land Speed / No Daze land mount.One could be your Waterwalking / Parachute flying mount.I still think the Water Strider nerf was totally unnecessary.Being dazed while trying to get past a group of mobs, particularly as a vulnerable spec, could stand to be removed entirely.
Removed
Sooo they are really trying to drive us to use the anti-daze equipment at the cost of not having water walking. Not even interested in this mount equipment garbage anymore.
Dazed is outdated and shoul'd be removed. And they do this? lol.
