Im not even whining about warrior damage or shockwave dmg cause i think warrior is a class that needs to do insane dmg to be viable but shockwave is just too much, too easy to use, too powerful, too short cooldown, too easy to outplay opponents with it or totally negate a swap and it becomes overpowered when you play a comp that doesnt relie on Shockwave and has other controls like sp war sham

On topic, I can't see why the damage is a problem - at the end of the day slam, ms, 1 tbf hc strike all do more. I would have no problem if the damage component was removed but I can't see why (if someone is kind enough to explain with strong arguements I would be grateful - no troll).

[aldreya]

You forgot u cant parry or dodge the shockwave.

I think Shockwave is cool with 20sec cd if they remove the damage.

^This^

It's the only spell in the game that disables multiple targets in an aoe, does 1/4 of said healthbars when cooldowns are popped, and is on a 20 second cooldown.

The problem is that you can cast all your spells, and your teammates, in a cc that does damage.  It's like kidney shot hitting for 100k basically.  

What if the mage change was frost bomb hits for 50% less but deep freeze now lasts 4 seconds, now does upto 100k crits with cooldowns.  

Imagine if mages frozen orb lasted 4 seconds, crit for 30k per tick per second, and deep froze all targets in a 10 yard range of it.

If you need more explanation, you should seek medical attention.

In the end, there is a lot of shit that is broke, there always is, always will be, we still play.  If we didn't, we wouldn't be posting on AJ about game mechanics.

totally negate a swap

Just wait till the warr uses his Shockwave before you swap? just swap when its on CD

[bIlliAn]

This will take 4 months and 12 meetings per day to balance.

Sit tight boys, fix coming soon™.

[Rylezlol]

how the fuck can you say shadowfury and shockweave are similar. Shockweave is the best abilety at the moment in this game (pvp wise) way 2 op

Why would a good Warrior use Shockwave for anything other than stopping a hard swap/burst or ensuring a kill?

The mongoloids who charge all over the place spamming Shockwave on cooldown are annoying, but the ones who stun your entire team when you try to do any sort of coordinated damage are a lot worse.

If the cooldown increases to 30 seconds  it would be ok (like shadowfury). Anything more dire than that would have severe repercussions to warrior viability (since it would practically take out our strong, but depended on one spell, utility).

shockwave doesn't do 100k...

[Chancesz]

warriors were terrible all season 10/11 give them a break, let them be a strong class.

[phishy]

normally shockwave dmg isn't a big deal, but yes, when cds are popped, shit hits hard. the dmg it does is just warriors doing a lot of dmg tho, not really shockwave itself being tuned for too much dmg. the 4 sec aoe stun on a 20 sec cd is just beyond retarded. there's really no defending it when it's given to the melee class with the highest dmg output

[deprivelol]

shockwave makes my head hurt

Do you see me defending? I am giving feedback on how to change it because it's too strong?

[Crawthz]

Change the talent to be Prot only and if Arms/Fury specs into it, it would be Throwdown. PvE is happy and everyone else except PvP warrior community is happy. We would still see the "fake pummel, jk throwdown", but it's a fair trade. Would make Stormbolt useless ability tho, but everyone has useless talents in their book

Edited by Crawthz, 16 December 2012 - 08:47 AM.

[phishy]

we have mages, warriors, and spriests arguing over which one is op and which nerf is too much and would make them obsolete in comparison to each other, while everyone else just deals with it

[Giky]

Shockwave needs more cd, everyone knows that except blizzard and warriors.
