    instead of nerfing irrelevant shit that only makes affli even more made of thin paper than it already is, why not nerf destro mastery which is what really makes it insanely tanky?

    they have no idea wtf is going on in the game.

    i agree.
    they suposed to nerf AMPS and GUSH (coz its too game breaking currently)
    than irrelevant shit like that
    but maybe they will fix coruptions next day hopefully

    coz these changes dont prevent 0.5 bolts in pvp and 0.1 sec fears still which are most broken part about destro atm

    also 40% of dmg gush monkeys still rule the game too on par with destros

    Yes, they should nerf everything Warlock related. They should nerf Chaos Bolt, mastery, haste and all warlock traits and talents. That should keep Mages and Rogues comfortable in PvP with zero threats from everyone. Lets completely ignore the fact that Fire Mages are literally Affliction + Destruction baked into one supreme package. Oh and Rogues are Warriors/Demon Hunters/DKs baked into one class.

    I see Holinka applying what the cab drivers and delivery boys on twitch are telling him to once again.

    The one thing that people don't consider is how threatening a class has to be to literally everyone rlse in order for it to adequately threaten the Rogue/Mage meta that has existed since the inception of arena.

    The nerf is not to the shield itself before entering combat, it's to how fast the warlock can regenerate it with damage.

    And flashpoint is insanely broken, able to get the warlock up to 100% haste or more in PVP with expedient stacking. This change just tones it down a bit. Mastery isn't as great as you think it is for destruction in the grand scheme of things. Most top warlocks are stacking Versatility instead of Mastery because it's more defensive.

    just nerf the pvp talent from chaos bolt. put it down like you do it in SL: from 65% more dmg to 40% more dmg. that will be actually target the big and fast bolts..

    Love how they always have to also nerf affliction, the worst spec in the game, every time they want to nerf destruction!

    Indeed, this dev team has no clue and does not play the game.

    If balance and even "fun" would be a thing, destro specific broken stuff would be nerfed and actually affliction buffed.

    Instead they nerfed affliction together with destro.

    Also people keep talking about GW, but what about haste corruptions x9 giving infinite haste baseline without modifiers added by items and talents?

    Its really broken as this improves not only burst and dmg/heals, but cc casts as well.

    i don't know how you could read my comment and then proceed to type all of that as a response to it.

    i always thought that talent was stupid from it's inception. in fact, it was put into the game as a way to buff destro back then in a way that didn't affect PvE. they should stop being lazy and fix the pve/pvp balance instead of using these shitty talents.
    even at 10% it'd still be mandatory because havoc CB is largely irrelevant in arena.
