No nerf to human trinket racial in WoD?

"We want races to have fun and interesting perks, but if some of those traits are too powerful, players may feel compelled to play a specific race even if it’s not really the one they want to play. " ....no nerf to human racial trinket

I mean this is literally the biggest example of what they don't want. So many people go human for pvp not because it is the most visually appealing but for the extra trinket slot. Yet they are changing what seems everything but this. Seems kinda bullshit.

don't worry, they nerfed will of the forsaken again.

They can nerf it all they want if it no longer shares CD with the PvP trinket. Until that happens, WotF is an entirely different ballgame.

[Verain]

Human trinket is an item. Specifically, it's the difference between the worst of the two dps pvp trinkets and the medallion pvp trinket- which is currently around 1500 mainstat.


Fix the itemization and you fix the racial. Period.

They hinted at nerfing the effect it has, as Verain says. Once having the bonus isn't really a big deal then its not such a big thing anymore.

You mean OP. Theres a reason every serious alliance players who pvps picks human.

I agree with this statement though fixing the itemization is messy. Having trouble with what could be done other than cause a decrease your main primary stat X seconds after activating the racial.

Maybe we will see less undead male rogue PVP videos now eh?

[Verain]

It's not actually OP like wotf.

And notice that he mentions its utility in pve, which is totally invisible to you.


In any event: The racial is the performance delta between two items. As itemization has increased in value greatly, the absolute value of that delta has grown. They just need to fix that.


Here's what they can't do:

1- Lengthen the cooldown. This idea is dumb, and when they tried it the exodus to horde was stunning.
2- Make it not break certain CCs.

Here's what they can do:

1- Apply a fix to the itemization.
2- Give a human some manner of debuff or penalty for using it, such that the total utility of the racial is inline with, for example, the new escape artist, or shadowmeld.
