Lol, great game!

Makes us understand why priests whine and suck so much I guess, because they all suck at pressing buttons.

Blizzard plans to add digital signature checking for mods, to prevent the use of mods like Decursive. Details are not known at this stage as to when this will be implemented but designer Rob Pardo said that 'they're close'.

Time to start practising some more on this nice little game my dear cleansebots.

As someone who has never used Decursive in PvP, i can see that not being a problem, at least in BGs. In places such as MC trash mobs, where things such as Soul Burn are used, again it wouldn;t be too big a problem.

Now I do think it would make Baron (with Mana Ignite) and several other MC bosses a little harder because I often found that when I had decursed my group, I was still decursing other priests' groups, and that may have been because the other priest had died, or for some reason hadn't got round to dispelling one or two people in their group yet. It's also much more of a nerf to hordies than allies cause if decursive is banned and the horde priests don't pay attention, we're fubared, if the alliance priests dont pay attention, the imbaladins can do their job of dispelling for them.

See you tonight, guys, I'm home for the weekend so will be online!!18910!

Felhunters can dispell too.

Ok, then, but alliance also get felhunters so they still have the advantage

Only a fool would trust a warlock to do defensive work, anyway

Decursive is just a slacker mod imo. All priest can and will dispel as good if not better. With normal dispelling you have better control imo. If you have a problem dispelling w/o decursive while moving etc you are probably using a gimped playstyle : P autorun on thumb-mousebutton and dispel bound to q,e,x or something will do the trick. I am obsessed with optimizing my keyboard bindings/mousebindings etc so i will not loose precious seconds between healing/dispelling/hot:ing etc.

I recommend mastering autorun with thumb because it will give you free hands to target silenced players in raidminion for example. And you wont have to move forward with the "w" button (if that is your default) thus making it easier to press # buttons and shift-scroll toolbars.

Ok so i got abit carried away. But do not fear decursive nerf! We shall go back to the old ways and reclaim skill once again.
