Why would I 1v1 a skilled hunter on a ret makes no sense.

Idk lol.. You said no class seems to counter you so I am simply a random class/person trying to counter you ^-^ Should edit your OP to put no class except hunts can counter you.


I can't tell if you are trolling or trying to make rets seem less UP or just was misinformed but either way I do respect you for not being just another horde prot or Hpal. It's nice seeing UP classes played by good people and the icing on the cake is when people QQ in bg chat about an UP class cause it's played well.
 
It isn't underpowered, I have soloed many good players on a ret. If you read through this thread I said a few times a good hunter will easily beat a ret.
 
im sorry but seeing you struggle in attempts to get back into the game is painful
 
In contrast, as a pure F2P, I was doing 350+ DPS as prot in RFC. Considerably more than ret's 140 DPS.

Why are you comparing apples to oranges.

AOE DPS to single target. You are smarter than that...
 
FFS lock this thread, Even the communities finest are going into the gutter. We all ready have the answer.
 
Idk why everyone trolls my threads.

Haven't really seen anyone troll you... Just point out how things you said are wrong

- Same damage as Protection but, with better offhealing.
wrong, right
- If you have perfect ToT they are able to top charts quickly.
probably won't happen with another skilled person in the bg. Not like topping charts mean anything anyways lol
- They have the potential to 1v1 a skilled player of any class.
already admitted to me this isn't true
- No one class seems to counter them.
already admitted this isn't true
- They have really good burst.
I'd say moderate burst but still lower then that of a prot
 
Maybe I was being a bit optimistic, they have the potential to 1v1 a skilled player of most classes.
 
Sometimes I get excited about a new class and start exaggerating so I can get more people to try it, maybe that blew up in my face and now I have to deal with the trolls coming at me.

Maybe try making true statements about ret. See the new 20-24 ret guide for an example. I'm already testing it out, and with my playstyle I enjoy it.

Well I did out DPS some random prots so that doesn't make my statements untrue.
 
Honestly though a ret probably has 30-40 dps lower than prot.

Can 1v1 many classes played by a skilled player.

Have the best offheals in the bracket.

They can top charts with perfect ToT

They do have pretty good burst.

I'm really not seeing how you're going to kill a priest by yourself

Ret can crit like 700s on cloth, with healing that heals as much as LoHs, combine that with a stun duration and belf silence it's gg. I don't see any way a priest could beat me.
 
Crit stacking on a ret does some nice burst guys...you shot this whole ret idea down quick af.
Overall, prot is probably more useful in a BG/Arena situation because it's just flat out better. HOWEVER, ret offers a new playstyle to the table that involves working around challenges that your average 12 year old f2p probably wont succeed in. All of you nubs go make rets so this world can be a better place!

















I'm tired and this shit doesn't make sense.
















At least...I don't think it does?


















You decide!

I can 1v1 hpallys as ret, but they can't come close to killing me. Also it is way more fun to run out and bash everyone in sight, then boredly denouncing and holy shocking for kbs.
Holy Paladins have VERY good DPS due to scalings. Some perfect geared holy paladins can hit 300+ per Denounce non crit.
