Is there hope?

[Yen51591]

After the patch being out for a few days now I've come to the conclusion that there's no way to have fun in this bracket anymore.Getting one-shotted by rogues or chasing a holy paladin that heals himself for 500 with a single holy shock.Is there any hope out there that this bracket is going to survive?

Many have been thinking the same. Single rank spells balanced around level 85 was never going to be sensible for other levels. We have coped with big changes in the past but this will be our biggest test yet. I suspect many will switch to level 10s to cope with the damage of huge ambushes and (insert any other imba spell here).

Well it's been said plenty of times before but ill say it again. Twinking has been about adapting to new changes, although this is a rather large change the bracket will survive as it always has. Personaly im working on a level 10 pally to reduce all the Pew pew being thrown around. Also I should mention that while leveling my 15 priest I did a few BGs and I noticed that sub rogues (3-4)levels below me were 1 shotting me, and not just me there were plenty of tears from everyone else too. Since the patch is ruining fun for leveling players I'm sure blizzard will nerf the damage being tossed around from everyone (not just rogues).... Thought that might give you some hope for the 19 bracket. :S

Absolutely right. Sure, blizzard doesnt care about the non xp 10-19 brackets, but if you played low level xp BGs you will notice subtelty rogues are 2 shotting people left and right, if that ruins everyones playstyle, blizzard will be sure to fix that. But the problem is that "When are they going to fix it?"
