OK i kept away from looking at a single talent tree update? BUT HOLY CRAP does this look LIT AS HELL! EXORCISM IS BACK! there's a con build you can go for, the choice here IS SO NICE! i hope we all love this expansion guys i really do!
Although I play mostly Prot spec, I'm happy this article was created regarding Retri. I do hope someone from Blizz comes by, look at it and do something with the general tree, Retri and Prot. I look forward for these changes. And last but not least, please redesign/buff/iterate our auras and bring back classic Blessings (Kings, Might and the rest).
You guys are always reviewing classes as if they're all supposed to be raiding or doing Mythic+. Some classes can be OP at mooning about in Elwynn Forest, or questing through old content for Loremaster. Ret will fill that spot in Dragonflight nicely.
"I can't imagine why a competitively minded guild would ever want to bring a Ret to a fight as it is unless their damage is insanely overtuned"And we all know that that is also not happening. Thanks Blizz.
I do not think that Crusade and Sanctified Wrath being incompatible is a bug. Based on the tooltip, it seems intentional (every one of the abilities says “works with other avenging wrath abilities” or something except crusade.).
Good article other than you not holding the devs accountable to their work. I get the calling devs insulting things, but sorry their work is unacceptable, period. The person who worked on ret is a bad class developer, period. The fact they ignored their players for months makes them bad devs period.I'm willing to let alot of stuff go, but not holding people to unacceptable and terrible work accountable is quite honestly stupid.
I only disagree about the m+ part. Despite the fact that Ret might not have it as bad in m+ as it is in raids ,it is still one of the less desired spec, since it has very low mobility , some utility but not enough to compete with other dps and more importantly zero survivability ,outside of bubble, it is one of the most unwanted specs for pugs and at the same time one of the least favourite ones for pushing keys with premade groups
Playing with a lot of different talents on beta I think Justicar's finally being relevant is fine but it should be a choice node with Templar's so the talent's and passives that buff Templar's also buff Justicar's. Our holy power gains feel fine with certain talents, but with the recent beta builds nerfing divine storm by over 40% seems like a bit much, so I don't know a solution with our AoE potential. If divine is going to be nerfed that hard maybe wake of ashes needs reworked to be one of our more consistent AoE abilities. Spec is feeling doomed more and more so after each build.
