    While this of course limits what one could hope to achieve while multiboxing, I'm not entirely convinced that we should be able to win against an equal group of organized and presumably competent players. The game is not designed with us in mind and it seems to me that just bursting the same target to 100-0% them before they have a chance to react being a viable strategy to be competitive is not a very healthy state of gameplay. Granted most groups could not achieve the pinpoint burst multiboxing can offer under the right circumstances.

    Yes, the change might hurt us, but if the common player is better off with the change, they're probably doing the right thing. In this context we're irrelevant in a way and it would not really be fair to judge Blizz based on how changes affect us.

    If the game is not designed with us in mind then why shouldnt we be able to beat an equally sized group of good players if the boxer is good aswell? Since there is no one in the dev team that checks if class balance does favour multiboxing for some specs these things eventually happen when you got almost 40? different specs.

    well why not? were not talking about 1v1 here and some specs rely on burst due to lack of cc or other things. And there is a difference between having no chance to react and reacting too slow because if Im smart and I run towards a group of elemental shamans I better not gcd block myself when I see he him targeting me and he starts glowing red and lava bursts flying towards me. As I said already earlier people at 2,2k+ even managed to bubble the mop enhancer oneshot. The problem we get now for example is that in the situation where an enhance shaman could pop ascendance and force a mage to block, the mage can now simply blink away since the enhance is on gcd and disengage behind pillar and wait for ascendance to fade, while prenerf the enhance would've gotten his windstrike out and forced mage block easily. So in the end its a direct nerf to classes who rely on their 3 minute cooldowns to do actual damage.

    Wether its for the good or the bad, 3 minute cooldowns would certainly become less attractive with this change and then the game becomes a dps race which boxers usually lose since we cant use cc as effectively.
