If they want to bring arcane back purging should be more expensive for every nonmage spec aswell. 20% more dmg on arcane blast is a joke we need like a minimum 50% buff on missles. They deal no dmg at all. My monk out there critting 20k back to back and I hit with 2k missles ticks and 5k arcane blasts.
Thats stupid they are basicly rendering Firemages Useless in PvE AND PvP u only want a Firemage for the Insane AOE Damage Nerve Flamestrike + Flameptachts Gone Ok Still good Single Burst nerve conuit by also gone thats fucking stuid…..
I wish they would disable covenant abilities and legendaries from instanced pvp instead of trying to balance some of this imo dumb stuff that shouldnt be in the game
Blizzard can't make up its mind. Nerf nerf buff buff nerf. Seriously wtf is wrong with Activision. Not that it matters anymore. Wow is old and its showing its age. Game is only still live so Activision can keep ripping people off and run Blizzard even more into the ground.
Fantastic vid as always 😊👌! Honestly amazed by how much detail you know about each individual spec giving you the ability to reflect on most changes. I feel like 9.1 is a step in the right direction, I just feel like some of the core issues are still looming over SL. Mostly the fact that it seems like they need more than half the expansion before the covenant system will be reasonably well put together and balanced enough to make it work for pvp. I just fear that most arena players will have left by then like in Legion and BFA. Borrowed power really seems tough to balance in time to make it an interesting addition to any competetive part of the game really.
I'm sure someone else has mentioned, but additional "rows" for the soulbinds means "making the tree taller, not wider". So additional conduits to add to our builds, and necessarily alternate paths down the same tree. So the opposite to how you described.
Still no fucking pally nerf?! 😂 wtf. Who gives a shit about these changes when a pally will still one shot you as a tank or out heal you as a healer. Gtfo here blizz
Love the content man, but if you held off on recording for like not even 2 hours and logged in to PTR/checked forums you'd not be speculating on the soul binds, what Ice Wall / Ring of Fire is etc.
Warriors are still fine btw, they should add a couple of crit buffs to rets as well! Also no need to look into hunter pvp talents at all, it's not like the class is playable without sac or scatter shot. Good to see they separated pvp changes into their own section and addressed pressing issues!
Bonds of Fel… might be a snare/root similar to the Gul'dan ability in Nighthold. Maybe our destro overlords will return? Dissonant Echoes is not the best design for a conduit. On live, regardless of the level of the conduit (184,200,etc…) it's the same 35% damage. It has a proc component that does scale up (I think at 220 it reaches 5%).
Maybe with Lasting Plague removed, we can see harder hitting DP now? I still miss the MoP 3 orb DPs that hit like a truck 🙂
Why did they destroy affliction though 🙁 I get that if you curse of exhaustion a target with Sacrolash it's still a perma slow… but that's a whole extra gcd per target. And maybe against a caster team sticking a perma curse of tongues could be nice… but now the slow is vulnerable to mage dispels as is the tongues.
The complaint on cloaked in shadows conduit is ridiculous. They got rogue to the ground and you guys are complaining about a fucking conduit that doesn’t break us out of style of rugs weren’t able to sit in South and actually be able to reset we were just die all the time you mean kind a like we do we don’t have track it we’re just dead but yet you got hybrid class is doing more damage to the street of DPS class drew it is the most bullshit class there is they can do everything and do the best at everything George should be a support class
I dont even use stellar drift or balance of all things in 90% of mythic nathria. These "nerfs" only hurt low end bdruids tbh. Not being mean just saying.

I thought the point of 9.1 Honor talent pruning was to get rid of talents people never pick… So why get rid of Heartstop Aura which is a BiS talent???

Warlock endurance conduits are garbo and don't increase your survivability a single iota. So having all of them won't matter at all XD
Nothing for shaman yet. We have so many dead pvp talents. Also no warrior nerfs or hunter buffs??? Wtf is going on @blizzard
Also, looks like a bunch of Boring af games headed our way in the AWC

Still no paladin rework..

WHERE IS ASMONGOLDS REACTION!?!?!?
Still No nerfs on warrior 🙂
Tested CB on live and ptr…pvp on
live: 12-13k
ptr: 8.5-9.5k

welp the meta is about to be flipped on it's head. Personally I can't wait.

Lol..the energy change when you get to the PvP part is like NIGHT and day, just caught my eye xD
Seems like there are alot of visual utility abilities for pvp which is cool
Still no fucking pally nerf?! 😂 wtf. Who gives a shit about these changes when a pally will still one shot you as a tank or out heal you as a healer. Gtfo here blizz
where's my WW buffs, blizz???
literally just open wowhead and you can see what all those talents are
So Havoc Chaos bolt is now a thing in arena? I'm not too mad lol
lots of specs have uncapped AoE

I guess DHs will be at the bottom for the rest of the expansion…
Blizz hates pvp hunters
Ring of fire may act as a 5 second burn cc like dragons breath.

Lol no pvp talents for shamys?
kill my druid?
Thank god rets are untouched kekW
Grabbing my popcorn to watch the mages cry over not being blizzard’s chosen class that dominates every aspect of the game anymore 🤡🤡🤡
They killed sacrolash? LOL i was thinking about resub but that killed the game for me.

/sigh. Rogues nerfed yet again.
Pretty trash still, I’ll wait for bc I guess..
what about curse of exhaustion?
I dont even use stellar drift or balance of all things in 90% of mythic nathria. These "nerfs" only hurt low end bdruids tbh. Not being mean just saying.
All of these new pvp talents are actually out there on forums with details about the skill effects
Looks like DKs are fine. :^)
so you press curse of exhaustion once and sacrolash keeps it up forever, am I missing something?
Any news on Hunters? Come on BM Buff XD
I'm sorry to point out one mistake but even with the conduit rogue stealth does break if you aoe .
