it's hard to imagine people arguing against affix that bombs should break polymorph.. I think Frost Bomb and Living Bomb breaking poly is fine, but  the secondary part of Nether Tempest should not hit a CC'd target.

I don't think mages should not have poly morph, but if bombs isn't able to break poly, then make poly have a cast time no matter what. Take it out of the pom tree and give it like a 50% less cast time proc or something rather than an instant cast, because like I said before, force the healer to trinket, and just instant poly and the game is over. Especially if you're running with a warrior and/or sp, it will be pretty ridiculous.

And with the magnitude of kids that don't know how to dispel yet or just aren't quick enough, we'll have a huge crowd of QQ'ers about how mages are op once again because they can instant cast a poly and shit on a kid within those 8 seconds.

OR

They can do what they did with rogues, we have a glyph the removes all bleeds when blinded. Maybe throw in a spell for mages that do the same. Rather than what I am preaching above, lol.

cuz now u see so many mages in ladder right?

To be honest NT mechanic is really dumb for PvP specially for mages a class that as never really good at aoe damage but really strong at single target dps, what talbadar said would be the perfect to fix this atm, but i really think blizz should dislike people for going NT for pvp, and try to balance frost bomb for PVP.

if they want to balance us around all our damage being based in a spell that only does effective damage to frozen targets, a good way to begin would be to stop removing every single way we have to either freeze targets or prevent a healer from freely dispeling the bomb

[dionim]

IMO, frost bomb should have a hard setup, and do a hard damage.
blanket is not he problem, the problem with mages is PoM ring, PoM polly.

well thats just my thought

bring blanket back, bring something attractive to FB, like Fbomb with fingers will be consider frozen when it explodes, and will consume 1 fingers when cast idk.

the problem is PoM>Alter time agreed.
they should block alter time when PoM is used

Affx how can you stand responding to these morons on the wow forums? I'm reading the thread and slamming my face on my desk at the same time.

[pyrellael_3428244]

My nose hurts and I need a new desk because of all this bias.

Literally the spell does whatever it wants and it shouldn't and quite frankly i'm surprised this hasn't been fixed because this affects PvE as well.
It shouldn't break it period, CC shouldn't break uncontrolably no matter what class you are.

[Athená]

They plan on fixing starfall aoe damage breaking cc, so there might be hope for you mages yet.

Perhaps make it so that only those affected by NT receive aoe damage from it. Considering you're likely to put NT on every target available, simply polymorphing the NT of the target you wish to cc should be sufficient.

its annoying that NT puts back in combat every tick too, not like other dots ( or maybe its only if there is someone else next to me? psure not )

Even goes one step further and stands you up if you get out of combat and start eating.
