Resilence in MoP

[Exalt]

Is the stat going to be replaced with another stat?
And is the BoA PvP shoulders going to be better than the BoA PvE shoulders now?

There was a thread somewhere talking about the PvP boas regarding the new pvp power and pvp defense. I believe the BoAs at our lv dont have them but not 100% sure.

thanks for the info. i figured there was a thread but i couldn't find it.
can anyone clarify this?

No, but spell penetration is being replaced with "pvp power," which reduces the effect of resilience.

The bottom of page one was the thread i was thinking of. Not sure if it answers your question

So rune of perfection will be pvp power? Hmm interesting to see if that would be BIS then.

I'm not sure, but that would be my guess as to what happens to it. Also a 30% baseline resil sounds like it'll be fun to reduce burst.

Yeah I was reading up on this yesterday, all players will have 30% base resilience. And it sounds like healers are unkillable in the beta like at twink levels. Curious to see how fights are going to look when this all shakes down.

Rdruids are just crazy atm....

If a 30% resilence then doesnt that mean healers are going to be overpowered?

I mean, they already are. But I imagine they could be more powerful if that were the case.

From an older Ghostcrawler post, I read that the developers really want to reduce the power of healing in PvP. He wrote that the way they were doing so was to make instant heals do much less, requiring people to hard cast and potentially be CCed. Not sure how this will translate into the lower brackets though, but we will sure find out

I hope they nerf healing by 50%

Reduce the healing percentages with the amount of resi you have IMO. More resi, less healing. If my idea is balanced is another thing though.

that's not really accurate. spell pen is simply a counter for spell resist and they're both just being removed. resilience is a pvp-only defensive stat. we've never had a counter for that (other than just doing more damage). Resilience is definitely being replaced by PvP Defense (or whatever its going to be called) but power is a new stat, not a replacement.

Also, Rune of Perfection is the only thing we can get our mits on at 20 with spell pen. it'll be interesting to see what it turns into, because i doubt it'll be PvPPower (i'm guessing we'll see PvP Power on our BoA PvP gear). guess we'll see though.

Im sure you heard the rumors but i believe that Pvp Power was quite limited to lvl 90/end came stuff, but that could be wrong. I hope it is.

Ya, 10 vs 10 hunter fights in WSG and 15 vs 15 hunters in AB will be AWESOME!

eating my words....darn patch notes.

i guess its a good thing that only casters will get ahold of it. although its only 10 pvp power, its a nice option.

 

[Stamm]

I'm almost positive rune of duty will have pvp power on it.
