your verdict on 5.2

[MarzRider]

Played a couple games so far.

Disc is starting to get that old cata feel damage wise. healing feels awkward still without renew but guess im just not used to it.
Really enjoying the battleground change, more bursty which is a good change at least at lower levels.

Tired already of the fotm rogues. But hey, thats how this bracket is.

All in all, i think that it is alot better than 5.1

 

[CripzBlood]

not bad...

 

[Tobinofear]

Overall so far:
- more burst
- more viable specs
- Less gy farming
- less 24 (still very strong but not extremely op)
- closer games

If they fix the stats this is more than you can expect for 0€

Enjoy it!

Cheers
Secco

Is it true that f2p priests' shields are now about 1500?Rogues can solo priests now? Are priests ok in bgs?not too shabby?don't get globalled?I will log on my priest only next week,so i don't know what's the status quo.Ty for the answers

 

[Goesid]

Evis is op. priest is pretty awesome aswell. hunters are op. prot warrior dmg is higher than arms but arms have the healing debuff. druid still fotm. paladin is the same except retri does ridiculous healing. warlock is stronger than before and still has amazing cc. Frost mages does more dmg.

No, only ~1000 depending on your spellpower

Rogues can solo priests now?

Not unless they get kicked with bubble down , at around half health with 5 combo points already built up

Are priests ok in bgs?not too shabby?don't get globalled?

Damage is higher, but priests do just fine

I like the patch but I am a little bit disapointed about the heirlooms shields.

My Power Word Shield tooltip says ~1450 with all pvp gear and 1500 if I equip all pve gear with boost up to 24 in the BGs.
Penance is ridiculous, if you get one tick off you can't out range it. I've seen it chase down hunters that disengaged halfway across the field and are way out of my range.

Instant cast holy fire is wonderful.

 

[MarzRider]

Im only getting 1023 bubble with normal int gear. It doesnt feel like 1k anymore tho. It feels much smaller.






On a side note, went against Lil lastnight on my boomy, and I officially hate hunters again.
Stunned out the a$$

I haven't done any testing, but I have a feeling that resilience is no longer being applied to PW:S, which is straight 40 - 50% nerf.

BG scaling is totally disabled in the German bracket this morning.

 

[Klongo]

HP scaling seems to be buggy. I have to equip the heirlooms again after joing BG to get higher HP.

anyone still playing battlegrounds is an idiot.

Either you are one of the most overrated rogues in this bracket or your bot that you use 100% of the time is HORRIBLE.. Either way please just get out lol. I just had to quote you after seeing this thread and how much crap you talk while you do ABSOLUTELY nothing in bgs except stealth in fr

 

[Buckeye]

is the extended maintenance to fix the hit/secondary stat scaling bugs?

sure hope so.

 

[youakim]

tooltip

The tooltip is higher than the actual buff for some reason, I have no idea why

 

[Buckeye]

Shield Slam damage +25% today.

ROFL

Yes, everytime I see him he never goes out of stealth. Nevers goes for efc.

 

[potatoez]

I was in a few bgs with him.He is just botting,so cut him some slack lol

 

[Mephisto]

3/12 Hot fix just gave Shield Slam a 25% damage buff. Nothing to do here anymore...

 

[SallyG]

Just curious... why would anyone cut someone who bots in BGs some slack? Genuinely curious. They are next to useless. I would honestly rather have some QT Paladin screaming JAJA as he throws his shield.



As for on topic.

I like 5.2 so far. That is all.
