I came home from uni today and couldnt really be bothered queueing up so thought I'd watch some twink videos instead. Having checked out some of mine and my friends and the fast nature of the fights in cata it got me thinking, that I actually miss it in a way. MoP is so much better for many reasons, but there were definitely some aspects of cata that I liked. So I pose the question to you, Do you miss cata? If so why?
 
I liked duels in cata a lot more, especially as a druid. It was challenging against most classes, now it's simply not fun anymore :(
Regards, 2,5k duels in cata, like 50 in MoP.

Overall I think I like MoP more though. But I will miss some parts from Cata for sure, so many good moments with old guildies and in WSG.

I certainly dont miss hunters not being able to get dodged. PvP in cata was a joke, it was known who would win the fight as soon as it started because of how imbalanced some classes were against others, only rarely was the outcome of a 1v1 a surprise. In MoP even though they took away a lot of our spells we are able to partake in more strategic combat where anybody can win if they know what they are doing. Druids are kinda outtta control but its not nearly as bad as hunters in Cata.
 
Only thing I miss is Shadowstep because of how much fun I used to have with it. Like ShS jukes, focus kicks, ninjas, etc.

But all in all I rarely ever look back and wish I was playing Cata.
 
Though I have only played f2p after MoP, I must say that healing in MoP is out of control. People hardly ever go oom and holy palas with permanent 30% speed / 70% speed boost and rdruids running around spamming rejuv are almost unbeatable.

That being said, I don't miss cata, not yet atleast. The class imbalance, the burst and the huntards...

I am welcoming MoP, but hoping for a slight change, for it to be a 100% enjoyable :)
 
cata was better

i cant even be arsed to logg on my 19 atm.

games are so bad just healstacking and waiting for 10 stacks.. dont like it tbh. also rogue sadly lost shs. so huge mobility loss. and noone need 900 evi crits on leather. just give back some mobility and nerf the damage

I miss holy light... and ret.

Healing is a lot easier in mop than cata with the blanket effect of counterspell being removed and essentially having 3 buttons to heal someone (hpally perspective) It doesn't seem as fun any more honestly. Before it took a lot more skill to be a good/effiecient healer with having to counter the burst and interrutupts along with paying attention to gouges/shs kicks and those clutch HOP's. Now with the mana pool being so high you rare if ever run out of mana and outside of juking counterspell/shaman interrupt/etc there really isn't that much to keep you on your toes.

I remember those matches in cata when im trying to fc vs 5+ rogues/hunters or heal mid like a mad man trying to keep everyone up were probably some of the most annoying but fun matches I've had in a long time and kept me quing again and again. Now it just feels like the same stuff game after game outside of getting rocked by a feral's lucky crit.
 
I preferred playing my Holy Paladin during Cata, purely having Exorcism made everything a lot more interesting, I've not really touched it at all since patch/expansion.

Aside from that, and having roll'd a Warlock, I like this patch a lot more, a decent healing nerf and a slight upping of damage for a few classes would make things totally RAD.
