    You say that, until you look at the ret one. That’s obvs gonna favour a consecration build.

    Without knowing if Chaos Maelstrom is an AoE spell or has use in ST, I'd imagine the target hit also takes the extra 2-10% dmg?

    Your reading comprehension is low. They literally said that they are only doing basic bonus' this time so players do not get overwhelmed with them aswell as the new talent system.

    boring bland and unisnpriing like this whole expansion

    also gated for 2 months so that top 1 % could feel special about themsleves.

    what a perfect way to ruin your expansion before launch.

    yes of your raid team

    majority of players dont raid and dont want to raid. yet they are forced to because otherwise they will be instant declines/kicked from mythic + groups becaue no set bonuses

    its boring its stupid liek this whole expansion

    it will fail even harder then SL

    My comprehension is just fine. They can say whatever they like it's still boring and uninspired as shit.

    You also said it's due to lack of creativity (while it's done like that on purpose), so yes, you do lack reading comprehension.

    Not really, they couldve easily made more interesting ones while still keeping it simple.

    But I get that most people on this site think they're really smart and more power to you for believing that.

    Guess you'll just have to settle for the Wrath Classic sets, where most of them were things like "The cost of [primary spender] is reduced by 5%" and "The damage of [one or two primary abilities] is increased by 10%."

    ...wait a minute.
    confirmed by my uncle nitnendo and masahiro samurai

    Prot pally gets 4% vers. So 2% DR with 4% increase damage done, 4% increased self healing if needed, for yourself and another person, with an ability that resets quite often, with a 4 set that increases its duration. Paladins also have a natural DR with Devotion Aura, which I assume they are still keeping.
    Warrior gets 4% DR, with 4% damage increase, based off of juggling Shield Block usage, Executes (if applicable), and Revenge usage (which requires Rage if it doesn’t proc), and a 4p that gives minor damage absorb.
    Paladin is one of the better tank sets of all the classes right now, and they’re both quite good.

    People had to have set bonuses back like they had to have talents back...both feel rather meh to be expected, and you can't blame the devs really...they don't want them to be too powerful

    First tier of an expan usually have kind of always had meh set bonuses. They dont want the best tier sets at the start of the expan

    the first tier of literally every single expansion is always basic % boosts to a couple abilities.

    The OP shit of literally every single expansion is always in the last two tiers.

    Just because that was the way in the past doesn't HAVE to mean it should be this way now.. why do we have to wait until the end to get some interesting shit is all I'm saying.

    Random words in italic for no reason just because I felt like it.

    Ik more concerned with tying powerful bonuses to rng and time gating. Being unlucky in early mythic is going to feel brutal.

    It's totally get better next time guys! Just 1 more patch and WoW is saved!

    This can't be the real tier sets, the Enhancement Shaman one is so bad it isn't even funny.
