Dev Watercooler: MoP PVP

[heyaz]

There are a whole crapload more changes as of yesterday, posted on mmo-champion.com Somes nerfs and buffs all over. Still not a single word about Shaman though. I don't know if they've got a plan, or think shaman are in a good place or what. I've played my shaman solo and it's still the worst class/spec in pvp at the moment, and the wow community seems to agree. Not a whole lot has changed on DK's though, which is a pretty popular multiboxing comp at the moment. Frost DK's are still topping damage in most BGs though, reminds me of Cata.

Overall I'm mostly just seeing some nerfs here and there to abilities on overpowered classes but not much to address stacking cooldowns and CC's. When I saw the new talent trees in beta I something bad may happen - but not to this extent. When you give some classes multiple AOE cc's, multiple shadowstep/recklessness/ice veins/etc. etc. type cooldowns plus a god mode cooldown that can all be used at once... seriously what did they expect? What it looked like at first: ok you can have this crazy CD, but you lose this, you can have this defensive ability, but you lose this. What it actually played like: you can have most of them at the same time as any spec, use them at the same time and they're off the GCD. Have fun!
