If it was actually a taunt as well.

Now to figure out if this makes worth using in a rotation and if so what priority it gets.

Edit : This really is one of the most meaningless changes Ive seen, at best it gives us another move to weave into our tanking rotation. MB is really only used to bridge taunt CDs or keep a mob on you thats about to die, the damage is almost totally irrelevant to its function.

Might find a use in Pvp as well i suppose.

Don't get me wrong I have no clue how warriors/mocking blow works/worked but it doesn't seem like this ability is changed at all?

http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=694

-A mocking attack that causes weapon damage, a moderate amount of threat and forces the target to focus attacks on you for 6 sec.

PTR 'change'

Mocking Blow now deals weapon damage if the target is tauntable.


I don't get it...

I have created the new version of faceroll.

I call it the...tongue poke.

Maybe it doesn't do any damage if the target is already attacking you and this is done as a change for newer player to learn how to use the spell? I don't know... I'm trying to be creative with ideas lol

Q u o t e:

Using mocking blow in any rotation is as stupid as using taunt as part of your "rotation". All you serve is to start diminishing returns.

Bridge taunt cooldowns? What the hell are you talking about? You taunt then mocking blow then taunt again in a matter of 8 seconds? You're terrible.


If you don't understand that mocking blow is not a taunt, and what bridging taunt CDs with challenging shout and mocking blow means, it's you who is a terrible tank.

Really terrible.

Non-tauntable targets don't take damage from it anymore. This makes it useless for non-tanks, instead of mostly useless

Yes non-tauntable targets don't take damage. But tauntable targets already do take damage from it.

Soooo....

I'm thinking its a typo.

But non-tauntable targets do currently take damage from it. Really its a very minor nerf to fury dps to use up some free GCD time that I doubt most players ever took advantage of to begin with.

So what you're saying is the change should say:

Mocking Blow now deals weapon damage only if the target is tauntable.

Ah, yea I think that's what it's supposed to say

Fury has spare GCDs to stance dance for it.

Stance dancing is not a good idea as fury, you dump too much rage. And fury actually has very few GCDs since the change to bloodthirst, any spare ones you have are usually spent on a BS proc (and you cant even use all of your BS procs). Defiantly not enough spare GCDs to make stance dancing to mocking blow worthwhile.
