wont change anything disc still shit as fuck gg blizz

[Niezeremake]

I might be wrong but isn't that divine aegis change & Rapture change live already?

[Gekz]

Definately can't be done looking at disc, i'd expect more changes comming soon.

lol@these notes

[Djandawg]

-Made sure no relevant abilities are buffed
-Made sure no survivability, mobility and offensive abilities are buffed
-Made sure many lines of buffs appear so that the impression of caring/fixing is given while in reality absolutely no time or thought has been put to solve problems that have been reported since beta.


It's not difficult to open all battlegroups' first page (top 50 teams) and realize, there are 3 disc priests in that page in europe, that is 3 in 800 teams, 3 among 2400 players. They know it, they just want to work on other classes more, while they buff random bullshit , unused abilities so that they give the community the impression that they are working on disc issues while they skip every single problem.

It's particularly sad because 5.2 is supposed to be next season, so we just got news that disc will be shit next season too, unless they make huge changes.

Yup, those two and the divine star are just updated tooltips of the hotfixes that are alrdy live- so no relevant disc changes so far

• Power Word: Solace replaces Holy Fire. It deals the same damage and interacts with other spells and abilities in the same manner, but is instant, costs no mana, and restores 1% of maximum mana on each cast.
  
• Dominate Mind now has a 1.8 second cast time (was 2.5 seconds).
  
• Angelic Feather now has a 6 second duration (was 4 seconds).
  
• Body and Soul now has a 3 second duration (was 4 seconds).
  
• Glyph of Holy Fire has been redesigned. It now increases the range of Holy Fire, Smite, and Power Word: Solace by 10 yards.
  
• Focused Will now reduces damage taken by 15% per stack, with a limit of 2 stacks.
  
• Spirit Shell no longer benefits from Mastery, and now properly includes the benefits of Divine Aegis and critical effect chance.
  
• Rapture now provides mana equal to 250% (was 200%) of the Priest's Spirit, but no longer benefits from Spirit provided by short duration bonuses.

Can't complain about a rapture buff and a focused will buff. Still lacking in utility and offensive abilities, though.

[Vamel]

[inkorperated]

    Sorry, your post must be at least 2 word(s) long.

[Acilinx]

we have lost the gope

[inkorperated]

all gope lost

[Absoqt]

I'm parsing those changes trying hard to note useful things. Then I read rogue changes and laugh.

[Gunther]

all gope gone RIP

[Trakke]

30% reduced damage with focused will while we all are getting more resil actually seems strong along with...well along with nothing else, guess some mana return but its still bad compared to other healers and its still bad since we are forced into full resigems and no spirittrinket

[Djandawg]

Edit: sorry repost.

I'm sorry priests, but your Gope is in another castle.


Fucking bloody hell...

[Nelehx]

even tho the changes aren't huge i think the retarded-beyond-imagination rogue buffs are good for the disc priests, considering already most rogues play with a priest partner. so if rogues are broken as fuck they could carry priests i guess
