    Re: Metamorphosis > Dispersion

    Metamorphosis is not as good as everyone thinks it is... It's nice, seems fun but not OMG...

    Obviously is something locks always wanted: a dps cooldown, but makes them easy prey to new CC and requires them to forget that sl/sl build everyone hates. Still it's in the pet tree and those 40% extra dps aren't real 40% extra dps...


    And I have to say that my shaman would love your dispersion for PVP...

    Can be used while in CC!! + 90% damage reduction + 6% mana every second... Wouldn't call it bad

    its like innervate + clos of shadows on melee/casters

    but i think the bonus damage buff should be allowed even if you are harmed during the effect


    edit *** booo when did they remove the bonus damage

    Not so OP, thinking of Demon form as it is now, 40% DMG INCREASE OMG! Charge, and so on, it's sick! 600% armor!
    I kinda like it. The holy heals doing damage would be an interesting way to balance it out, but what if it were more like an extention of Shadowform? I.e. make Shadowform a pre-req, and have the vamp. form permanent? While I do think the transformation would make the lock transformation non-unique, it's not like transforming is iconic to locks anyways, and the actual stats, especially if it was a permanent form, or nowhere near the same. The more I think about it, the more potential that has.

    Glyph of turn evil - makes your turn evil spell instant

    really lets not compare 51 pt talents because honestly most locks that i know including top rated arena and t6+ pve locks would prefer something more than a cheezy timer that allows you to be CCd more
    You trade one for another. Your a demon which means u can not be sap'd or sheep. But if there is a paladin in the arena you can be feared....wow now locks get done what they have been doing for years...but again only if there is a paladin rdy for them.

    Or a lock to banish us.

    Edit: You do make a good point though, that we're not just gaining 2 new ways to be CC'd, we're also dropping 2.

    why not??..its not like u only have 3 seconds to use it...u have 45..so if youre facing a rogue i dont see why u cant meta b4 the fight starts... (then again my post is rendered obsolete if they dont put paranoia back in :P, but i guess there can be figured strategies out to help with that)

    Haaa... It sucks it got nerfed so bad... in PVP it probably wouldn't make no difference, but I'm hoping to see a shadow priest sharing raids with us... (hoping they are competitive with other classes...)

    I support SP cause if they feel their dps is low... I just don't like these comparison threads as in talent A > Talent B

    Re: Metamorphosis > Dispersion

    imo 25% was abit much, but then again, the conditions for this to happen werent easy to fulfill anyway, what with all the aoe dmg raid bosses do...i guess it wouldnt be as OP in instances since the bosses there are fairly easy in most cases, but in a raid that 25% could make a pretty decent difference.

    hell i would be ok with 10% for 1 minute, just get rid of the requirement.

    Re: Metamorphosis > Dispersion

    I really like when peoples answer to things are "Go reroll." Like some of the people here are saying "go reroll a warlock." Seems like they are the people also complaining that they don't want every class to be the same blah blah blah...well you know what? If everyone rolls a warlock, then everyone IS the same.

    I do not think the OP's intention was to have the SAME talent as a warlock, he was using it as an example to show how weak the spriests 51 talent currently is.

    you are most likely not gonna get sapped if you are blowing meta cooldown anyways
    meta is pretty much the demo version of "oh crap" its not gonna be used by any skilled lock to open a battle with (lawl at those locks that still open with deathcoil)

    so it saves us from sheep.... im still more afraid of pallys, mages should be sheeping your healers anyways now a pally just has to instant fear my 5 min cooldown

    There is little value in pointing out the difference in various 51 point talents. At least ours works unlike the holy pala's - let alone holy priests who get uber pointlessness.....

    I do not mind discussing dispersions weakness. This is just.... QQ
    51 pt. talents should have similar budgets for their power. Looking at the raw numbers here one can say unequivocally that Metamorphosis is better.

    That said, the OP forgot to mention that Metamorphosis removes the Warlock's pet, which in the case of the Fel Hunter is a Warlock's only dispel, both offensive and defensive.

    Not enough to level them in my opinion.

    Re: Metamorphosis > Dispersion

    Meta doesnt dismiss ur pet anymore. Maybe im wrong but the tooltip gives me right
