Am I amissing something?
Complicating is the true path to simplicity.
Hmmm, finished classes? Strange you say that after a thread claming some of the new warlock talents are unbalanced...xen wrote:LOL, there aren't any real issues in that thread. Unsurprisingly though, since shammies are one of the few finished classes.
More and more tho I can see (from that thread) that the emphasis continues to be the "healing" side of the shaman. Considering this is only part of one talent tree, i find it a bit crap. Tho, we did enjoy a whole period of overpowerdeness in the past (tho, again, this was when people did not know how to handle a shaman).
Stormstriker continues to be a crap end tree talent. Over emphasis on totem talents also a bit crap (since they can be destroyed in one hit, etc etc). Let's wait and see what the future reserves.

Maybe the Shaman Zeppelin to the devs secret island is broke or the goblins went on a strike! :/sneek wrote:It *was* finished Xen, now that Warlocks, Hunters and Druids are buffed and Paladins, Mages, Priests and Rogues are up next... once all of that is done, Shamans need to be "realigned" in their proper position.

Warlocks still aren't finished. The problem with Blizzard is that they keep changing stuff other than the main issues, and does so with questionable logic. Noone called for faster DoTs: dispelling is an issue. This change will not affect it, since good decursers can still remove them before even one tick has passed. So in effect, this makes warlocks stronger against bad players, but it still doesn't matter against good players. Noone called for insta-cast, improved Conflagrate either. One thing we did finally get last patch was our method of escaping (and I indeed think the way they implemented it is overpowered), but the community is still waiting for changes to the whole shard issue (having to farm to even be able to use spells and pets?? - nowadays I almost completely forgo the use of pets besides the Imp, since you lose them so often, doesn't that seem abit odd?) and end-game pet thing hasn't been touched either. The last thing will hopefully be changed next patch, but I'm not sure with what they'll come up this time.flame wrote:Hmmm, finished classes?

Jump in!
well, im pretty sire this is only a part of what they will change when it finally comes to the shaman changes. at least i hope so, since every other class so far have been VERY changed. atleast they should really change a couple of talents and stuff imoflame wrote:Hmmm, finished classes?

Well, it does not surprise me that the decision to change classes came after the introduction of a great PVP element into the game. As usual we can (more on some than others) split a pvp tree from a pve one. It does not susprise me that quite a few of these changes are geared twrds pvp, and some go as far as being very specific against big PVP raids (even if they imbalance a 1v1 experience). In the end we do have raid pvp instances and not 1v1 ones!xen wrote:Warlocks still aren't finished.

When balancing a class there must be a "situation" to rule yourself by, and I really do thinks that the main one is the pvp battlegrounds. more I feel that 1v1 pvp is not really a consideration sometimes, reason why we see so called "imbalances". Either way, I digress... BUFF SHAMANS!
