Yes. It's awesome that they're both Ret, and that their tree has been buffed to hell. It's also awesome that Ret is considered OP, yet they're going on and on about how the "whiners" can't understand that Blizzard is just "balancing" the Holy tree. What needs balanced again?
It's even more awesome that Divine Plea having a 100% healing debuff wouldn't have affected their playstyle in the least bit, yet they feel compelled to call out the holy paladin who (rightfully) called it out as bullshit. Especially when you consider that Innervate, Mana Tide / Water Shield and Shadowfiend have no similar drawbacks to their corresponding classes. Even Evocation - which does the equivilent to mages by preventing them from doing their job - only lasts for 8 seconds compared to 15. But it's okay! Ret has been revamped from the ground up and they have a bunch of new toys to play with. Holy has been nerfed and hasn't had anything new or worthwhile in 4 years. But it's okay to call them whiners!
So Divine Plea can be dispelled now. Don't get in your high horses and act like it's still some major slap in the face of the whiners because your ever-precious Blizzard is keeping the status quo and putting "balance concerns first." A shadowfiend can be killed or feared or stunned or trapped. Innervate can be dispelled. Evocation can be interrupted. Mana tide can be destroyed. Mana shield can be dispelled. Divine Plea should be no different, so a "raid encounter that can dispel will screw Divine Plea, lol" means nothing. The fact that DP still has a drawback that no other class equivalent ability has, however, is a drawback, and an unfair one.
I just cannot fathom how some of you can play paladin and call out one spec as a bunch of rejects and whining retards when you're all supposed to have each other's backs. Especially after Ret has spent so much time and so many years crying about how worthless they are, yet won't support Holy now that it's getting bent over a barrel.
Ret is getting to get nerfed down because Holy sucks so bad and healers are going deep into Ret to compensate it. Just wait. Sheath of Light's AP to spellpower % is going to get nerfed, and I wouldn't doubt it if Art of War will be on the chopping block. Then we'll see who whines.
