Basically what this guy says.
Ret will not be high dps. Even now that it is said we are, we aren't.

We are mid of the table. When nerfs hit, we will be below middle. Below average dps without utility in an expansion without scrolls. Why would anyone want a Ret? Bring a monk. Better dps and 5% debuff, bring a DH, 5% debuff, bring a DK combat res, AoE magical defensive, grips or bring a rogue, all the immunities on lower CD and better damage. Honestly, even a shaman is better cause they bring windfury and heroism/bloodlust. Warrior, battle shout. I would say feral is the one that is closest to ret but they bring a combat res. So, why on earth would you bring a Ret? 3% damage reduction and low dps? It's not worth man.
Above. Your phisical immunity has a 3m cooldown. Your bubble 5m cd (unless you nerf your mobility even more). It sucks. If you mean cause of what Preach says, dwarf racials wipe bleeds and have a 2m CD. Rogue and Hunter have better immunities. The weak ass immunity that is not comparable to the utility that other classes have.
Have you ever been brought to a group and someone said: Oh yeah, we really want you cause of that BoP? Very, very rare. Also, yeah cause your group will prefer a Prot or Holy that will bring that. Why would they need to drag a weak dps with no utility around? Literally worst melee atm.
You can say i am "doom and gloom", but this is reality. You will feel it. Good luck getting into mythic+ groups, honestly. No one will want us.
Basically, we desperately need utility. We need our good AoE WoG and at least our blessing of wisdom back. That or give us a 5% debuff too.
Oh and please don't bring blessing of seasons up. That is not utility of any form. You will use them all on yourself and cannot time it for the healer one to be of any use. Not that it is nearly as good as wisdom.
