Since they are doing talent balancing in Patch 6.1, should our tier 2 CC talents also be balanced better?
Right now we have Binding Shot and Intimidation on the same tier of talents. To compare:
Binding Shot:
5 second stun on multiple targets (Not guaranteed on cast but it's not like it's difficult to have the stun proc. If they just stand still to avoid it then you've successfully made them root themselves.)
30 yard range
45 second cooldown
Intimidation:
3 second stun on only one target
Require pet in melee range
60 second cooldown
Is there really any reason to take Intimidation at all? It Binding Shot is not hard to use and it has a longer stun duration and can stun multiple targets. On top of that, it's cooldown is shorter. Why would they not buff Intimidation after an expansion and a half of it being this bad compared to the other talents? It should at least be 5-6 seconds in duration or have half the cooldown that it currently does. Maybe someone else knows something about Intimidation that I don't that somehow makes it decent ever, so please let me know if you do.
