Biggest copout in the history of gaming!

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Biggest copout in the history of gaming!

Post by Leatherneck » Fri Jul 21, 2006 11:08 pm

So, any of you who play wow probably know by now that in the expansion, Blood Elves will be able to be Paladins and Draeni will be able to be Shamans, hence Allies will have Shamans and Horde will have access to Paladins.

Aside from the homogenizing [sp?] of the factions, this is completely a weaksauce BS response to shamans limited capabilities in a raid environment. Instead of like, ya know, reworking shamans' totems into a useful raidbuff mechanic, they're like f that and decided that a good idea would be to just give them paladins... lol. Sweet. gg development!

And, this will totally trivialize any content currently out. Imagine if on your first nef/c'thun kill [or rag or whatever you're up to] your DPS had not only BOM, but SoE and the +agi totem + windfury. Or Tranquil air + BoS. Or Mana Tide + BOW. Not to mention the loot tables are going to be even more *terrible* with 9 sets to drop vs 8. And, the whole 40 man raid groups... watch this phase out shamans even more. You now need like... 2, total. One for Windfury for the MT and one for MTT to be tossed thru healer groups.

lawlllllllllll

Sweet Jesus no! It's like the laws of our society, nay, the very fabric of space and time are ripping apart right before my eyes! *explodes*
