Who can heal pretty effectively, dmg ain`t that bad but utility is kind unmatchable.

w00t!!!

Do not trouble trouble until trouble troubles you.
God's in his heaven. All's right with the world.
Guess You should grow up. There doesn't have to be a proof of anything. Honestly, I believe the OP, because I know Ret Paladin dmg isn't that high. People just QQ because everyone got used to get free HK's from Ret Paladin's. Table's have turned.Originally Posted by BlazerWithTheLazer

wrong, its not that simple, the complaints may still all be valid..Originally Posted by Sirrio
example:
<class x> does 1500 dps, but this is overall, including crits, and this is far below average. yet people complain about its damage.. why?
paladin does damage on par with other dps classes/specs, about 2400 dps, now this may all be fine and dandy, but if they do this damage in streaks, short streaks.. it may 1shot or 4-5 shot any other player..
if they do 2400 dps steady thats fine, but if that means they have streaks in which they do 30k damage in 6 seconds (not saying this is true, but it may happen @ lvl 80) and thereby killing anything thats not a tank, then yes, there is something wrong..
sure they may do SUUUCCKKAAAAAYYYYYYEEEE damage the rest of the duel/match/minute.. but overall the damage is on par with others.. does this mean balanced pvp or a balanced playing field? i dont think we would disagree that it is not.
perspective, thats what its all about.
but seeing as kalgan said this, im sure they have some data to back this up, this does not mean there is no problem though, looking the other way or sticking your head in the sand does not change anything.
I will explain ut a little, as you requested, for you...Originally Posted by coldethyl

So I think you only see those things pallys can do, obviously forgetting all other things the we cant do and other classes can do.
If Blizzard decides to nerf us once WotLK is out, so be it. BUt if they do not, then all those you that are saying we r getting nerfed will just be proven to be wrong.
Or people in PvE, where all of Ret's new tricks are making it possible to solo regular 5-man instances in t4/t5 gear... you know, something almost any other spec can do in live.Originally Posted by Moar Pew Pew
You also seem to forget what other classes can do. As a rogue i would love to stab you back with a 2-hander but obiviously i MUST use 1-handers. You can also sprint but improved sprint is not hand of freedom. I can come up with 4 things retris can`t do atm. offensive dispell, mortal strike, spell interrupt and proper snare.Originally Posted by CrusaDora25

Distance Closer
These things are small to you? Ret may not be broken, or UP in any way, but we do have our weakness.
DPS specs and classes complain about Ret because it's just damage vs damage, but when we are fighting a healer it's a different story. Rogues have several interupt effects that they can use to take down a healer, Paladins have two. One of which we usually have to use as a distance closer.
This is why classes like Locks and Rogues will always consider us OP when fighting us in a double dps set up, but Resto Shams, Rest Druids and Priests can just laugh us off if they are smart. If you took away the burst damage we would have absolutely no way to fight healers and kiters.
I think you actually believe your own propaganda Moar Pew Pew.
Whether you accept it or not, an objective view point can clearly see ret is overpowered and it will have to be addressed eventually if not soon.
You're still going to get nerfed, nothing new here. I'm waiting, have been for a while now, for someone that's actually tried pvp at 80 on the beta to provide some sort of reasoning for why ret isn't ridiculously out of balance right now.
Actually, Mr. Lennon, I CAN imagine a world with no hatred, religion, war, or violence.
I can also imagine attacking such a world, because they would never see it coming.

Propaganda? Lmao. That's rich.Originally Posted by Kaiton
I just gave a perfectly reasonable reason why our class works this way, yet I'm spreading propaganda? No. The only people doing things like that are Tigercat who are on some stupid crusade to get Ret Paladins nerfed into the ground.
Until you can accept that maybe you aren't looking at the whole picture, and consider a Ret Paladin against all specs, you should keep your judgements to yourself.
Edit:
There was a disturbing amount of accidental puns in this post. It makes me cry. lol
Moar Pew Pew, unless you've pvped at 80, your opinion is completely worthless.
I've explained before what the problems are, find someone that can refute them.

Your oppinions, and most of the people complaining, are entirely based off PTR also. So really, you have no right to tell me my oppinion is worthless.Originally Posted by Tigercat
As has been stated many times, most of our spells have one rank. So while they do not initially do very much damage, when gear becomes a factor we scale very well. That is why our damage is reduced at 80. That's also why we seem to do to much damage at 70, because we already have the best gear possible.
Maybe we will have to be scaled back a bit when everyone starts to get t9 and the new season gear, but that is why we aren't being nerfed currently. If we were pre emptively nerfed for later content, then just like TBC beta, we would be very weak at release.
All you have done is take other people's word as law, and state Ret will be nerfed constantly. Try proving your point for once.
I'm not playing on the PTR you moron, I'm on the beta. Again, I've pvped at 80, I've seen the issue. Unless you've pvped at 80, your opinions are worthless.

Yet we have the lead designer for character balance saying we are fairly balanaced. So I guess that does kind of make your oppinion worthless.
He mentioned burst.  Do a little digging, I've said before the damage isn't the problem per se.
Edit: Here, I'll make it easy for you.
Glass Cannon = Ok.
Tin Cannon = Ok.
Iron Cannon = No.

Lol, yet again you're resorting to insults to prove a point.
Anyway, Ret isn't some rediculous tank that never dies. We have a lot of survivability, but not as much as say an Arcane Mage. Most likely our SoC damage will just be reduced again, or the will increase the internal CD to 2-3 seconds. I seriously doubt with all the thought they put into Ret talents that they will eliminate something like Art of War.
Pvp at 80 or find someone who has that can actually back up your points. It's that simple.
