nemmar yes there is no such thing as a pure utility spec. Im not asking for you to throw away all of your damage to simply use utility spells. Im arguing its stupid for the complete opposite knee jerk reasoning this forum has in where they want ALL of our utility removed to simply do dps like a fucking arms warrior. taking away healing and meaningful healing from paladin specs makes them not be paladins anymore thats just fact.
As for the love for DP andd the synergy people think JV will have with it. JV will not be used with DP's effect unless you need the heal. Sure its a nice bonus but baseline before any traits or buffs or anything TV outdoes JV in damage. ( btw comments on bosses never being stunnable is false, there are a number of bosses in the past that have stun mechanics, not even including add spawns)
the removal of blessing of justice is something im half and half on. i understand its removal because its just a passive buff and with the recent changes coming to blessing being unable to recast in combat i find this to be an easier way to deal with it. i will miss the large bonus effect of being able to buff those who i knew were big deeps with even bigger buffs but i guess overall this would be for the best.
The change to equality however...... they are going down a dangerous path in how this will work out. They seem intent on allowing a mechanic like this to pass but need i remind you that people standing in fire to do more damage is directly contradictory to what they have done for DPS and tanks so its going to be very harmful in any group play scenario where this talent becomes good enough or better than the other options of the tier (also shows some insight as to how developers think, remember that kalgan said it would be doing about half damage in PVP builds ago but now we are just seeing it. This means for those who do not know that devs are on builds WAYYYYY past the ones testable.)
BTW ret's damage seems to be complete shit ATM compared to everyone else now, a holy paladin's crusader strike does 6 times my crusader strike's damage meanwhile he can holy shock me every 6 seconds for 3 times the damage of my TV. PVP atm is so out of whack i cant even reliably test new skills because im dead in 2 seconds and i cant kill anything anymore.
