You're not alone with such expectations.. How long have all those problems been mentioned? Since mid-alpha?
Until now they just took some "small" things and gave them to Ret, hoping we will be happy, because we got what we asked for. Consecration (as a talent lol), Divine Purpose (as a talent lol) for example.
I don't know, but I'm losing hope with every build. If they won't change things in the next one or two builds, I don't think they will change anything.
The US Feedback Thread has the most posts and views of all damn feedback threads and most people mentioned the same problems over and over.. If everything will be ignored in the next builds, I don't believe people will even give feedback any longer.
After watching Thete's dungeon video on youtube, I thought "nice, Ret is an Anti-PvE specc now", even if his damage was quite good. But I have seen most of the problems inside that one dungeon video in action. Shitty movement and what happens, if Greater Blessings are gone because they stupidly just want to be gone for the sake of being gone and you have a stupid tank who pulls before you can buff your blessings again. Stupid "consensus" talents, because we no longer can change our talents freely and that stupid feeling if you have to change your target after using Judgement on your first one.
Ret is such a damn mess in Legion that I don't even have fun to raid NOW as a ret any longer, because I know how shitty it will get in a few months.
@Ulthane
Have seen you big post/posts on the US Feedback thread. Thanks for your efforts I hope they will take something from it at least.
