Not that I am complaining about AI, but AI only went up a "whopping" 9 points from our lvl 60 version.

You could get 9 more int from what you had in just about any piece of low lvl 62ish gear quest reward.

However, the buffs mean little anymore as:

Shamans, Priests, Mages, Warlocks, and now Hunters

can dispell your buffs. You go into a BG or Arena fully buffed, expect those buffs to be gone within 5 minutes

Q u o t e:


Understood.

http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Cho%27gall&n=Trumpcard

You don't represent the average player, and kudos to you. :P

Stating that many players are above the 1000 base stamina mark isn't very accurate.



Eh, at a certain level it's easy for tanks to get to it, but no one else, so it's not a big deal.



What is a big deal is this talent and many others in Disc not being in Holy like all druids have their imp mark of the wild talent in theirs. But no Blue will ever comment on such things, right?

Ice Block is now trainable. Hunters can now offensive dispel and mortal strike. CoH now heals for +25 more. BABY STEPS.

1. yes I know I'm a whiner. That just comes naturally to me most of the time, especially in bad moods like today.

2. I did not say anything about nerfing anyone or that any class is OP. I just whined to try to get a buff to my best buff. I know how to play my class, I just wanted to make it easier.

3. I did not post anything false. just that I wanted a buff to fort, so my buff would be wanted more. Kind of like Coke trying to come up with a different formula to increase the sales of their already overpowered soft drink.

4. I will not apologize to anyone. I said what I said. I stand by it.

Q u o t e:
I don't think there is anything to gain by comparing blessing of kings to power word: fortitude. Both are unique and have their advantages. The stamina gained by your buff is significant, even without the improving talents. Also, ideally you're in a group or raid environment where players have both kings and power word: fortitude.

Though that's not always going to happen, obviously. There is much more I can say on this topic, but I'll let others elaborate further.



K what advantages pw:f has over kings?

Q u o t e:
Actually, I was thinking lately that PW:F should scale because of the stamina changes in TBC. From 60 to 70 HP increased somewhere in the area of 100%, while PW:F increased slightly over 50% (54 to 79).

A very healthy static increase.

10% more stam on a priest in PMC and Whitemend... ya... no.
Mages? Not so much...

It gets everyone up, not just those that already are.

First off I'd like to say... why would you want to make the BoK buff lesser? in PvP 50% of the time someone gives you this buff. In PvE you should get this buff and fort at the same time! (that's even better!) and if you ask blizz to buff fort, they may just give BoK a 5% buff instead of 10% :( why would anyone want that? Also, it's not like the alliance is the only with with that buff now... EVERYONE can have it! And its not like it can't be casted on everyone, so it can benefit YOU too!
ALSO, all those talking about how much TANKS get from fort... there are still 4 other people and then maybe more if in a raid that get this buff... it is significant for say... a mage or priest who doesn't have the 1000+ stamina base that warriors have.
I just don't understand the argument here... everyone benefits from both buffs, some more than others (rogues benefit prob more and warlocks too from the fort buff I'd say)...
I do; however, agree with one thing... the cost to buff mana-wise and reagent-wise for a priest can be expensive. Me, as a druid does not spend nearly as much mana on a full group buff as priests or mages for that matter, and I have more mana or as much as both of them. but please do not make my buff cost more mana :( that would be sad... just make theirs cost less :)
That is all.

The scaling mechanisms of the two are completely different. As gear increases, Blessing of Kings will continue to become more powerful, while PWF will stay the same (or, stated in terms of percentage increases in effectiveness, PWF will diminish faster than BoK--these are different descriptions of the same mathematical trends).

Making all stats follow exponential curves, as I have suggested, would eliminate this problem nicely.

Q u o t e:
While the latest mana reduction has helped our most helpful buff, it still has some issues. Namely, it doesn't scale.

The pally buff, Blessing of Kings, gives a flat 10%, so even a level 28 pally can buff the high level characters and they get the full effect. Even at level 70, the greater blessing of kings costs less mana than ours, and uses a cheaper reagent. Granted, at 10%, it doesn't quite match the health buff of Fort, but it has other advantages. Blessing of Kings is the undisputed best buff in the game.

Perhaps making PW:F one rank and a 20% health buff for a certain % of base mana would be worth it. Then make the group version 3 times the cost of the single rank. It would, of course, have to cost more than the pally buff.

A buff is a buff. What matters is how it increases effectiveness. Blessing of Kings is a buff that will continue to increase in raw benefit as the target gears up. Few other buffs are capable of such scaling.

We recongize the concerns expressed in regards to mark of the wild and it may very well see improvement for Wrath of the Lich King. I do strongly disagree that it's anywhere as useless as you claim, however.

Also keep in mind, because it affects all stats, some class/specs benefit from it more than others.

Few other buffs also require points in a talent tree.
Paladins are also a 'buff' class, Why shouldn't they get one of the best buffs?...someone has to have the best one.
