I too am curious, Drysc; will the Cooldown for blind be reduced too? A simple yes/no would make me happy :D

Q u o t e:
I'm not sure why the change may have been implemented and then removed, there could be any number of reasons. I don't think it's really an important question at the moment though as the change is still planned to go in.

In 2.3 Blind will no longer require a reagent. It will also be changed to a physical attack, will share the same diminish category as Cyclone, and diminish in PvE as well as PvP.
If this means that you will no longer be able to Blind targets under the effect of Blessing of Protection, please reconsider - this is basically the only thing Blind is consistently useful for.

Or are you removing the ability to dispel/cleanse Blind?

Physical attack? wth, 1. So now we have absolutely no recourse of cc on a player that has been BoP'd and 2. Dwarfs can no longer stoneform out of blind....I'm sorry but that's really lame....

That's like taking WoTF from an undead rogue.

WORST IDEA EVER.

Ok, not requiring a reagent, no biggie. Sounds fine.

The rest of it: retarded.

So you are nerfing rogues in PVE, while simultaneously buffing their PVP CC?

Now there will be no way for me to prevent a rogue from CCing me for 15+ seconds, at all.

And diminishing returns for PVE? It was a horrible idea for cyclone, and its just as bad now. Rogues need their CC for pve, its what makes them useful. They do NOT need to be able to CC better in pvp, they need more actual survivability. Rogues stunlock is already very powerful, no need to make one of its abilities unstoppable short of a trinket.

Your comaprison does not work. Stone form out of blind effects against one class. Fear three classes can do so its not the same as taking WoTF away from UD. Sucks? yes Fair? not really. But it sucked when they screwed us out of our stun resists too. It happens and you still can get rid of bleeds. I think its great now it cant be cleansed. Love the change.

Buff warlocks! They need it. Sometimes they can't kill their target before fear ends!

Trust me, as a rogue I think these changes will make you overall more viable in arena. After having done a lot of 2v2 with a rogue, blind being a poison was a severe limitation to what we were capable of. Druid teams just ripped us apart. Blessing of Protection is the lesser of two evils.

Stoneform not removing it is a problem, but it'll still be there as a mechanism to remove 5 stacks of wound poison and crippling poison all at once, which is still quite the boon. Not to mention bleed effects so you can vanish properly.

Q u o t e:


Physical ranged, or physical melee

The latter would be a substantial nerf to the ability.



Technically it's still a ranged attack that is part of the nature spell school, it just isn't a poison anymore.

(edit) Scratch that, we've updated it to be a ranged physical attack (also no longer counts as a poison).

Q u o t e:

Every class has retardedly easy pve roles.

PvE isn't difficult - the only hard part about it is getting 25 people who aren't retarded to play a lot.

Q u o t e:


If its a ranged attack with a nature spell school, does this mean it can be resisted and not miss?

Or even partial resists?

Thank you.

it can be resisted but talents that increase resistance to poisons will not affect it since its nature and not poison nature.
Edit : Changed Deadly throw to be a Ranged Physical attack.

Whoa its Kalgan.

While you guys are making the rounds, could you stop in the Shaman forums, even if just to say hi?

We've never seen you in there, and it would make a lot of players happy to see you.
