Retribution

• Absolve (New) Your Hand of Sacrifice also removes all harmful Magic effects from the target. Paladin - Retribution Spec

I would say NICEEE, but it's not even close!

the difference is they have 2 on a 1.5 min cd. Shadow has their cleanse on a 15 s cd..... Both are problems

"Hey, Mass Dispel is severely overpowered and requires nerf and no other class except healers should be able to have defensive dispel no matter the cooldown or mana cost provided with it, so we decided to give Retribution Paladins one."

Blizzards logic.

Not like teams that vs a ret touch anything but the ret so now it might just serve a purpose for them.

[averuki]

They should remove mass dispel but instead they give another dps spec def dispel.

The reason why they added this was because rets are not particularly desirable in 3v3 comps. This was added to provide more incentive to play with a ret.

They should use this pattern in nerfing MD with shadow priest.

They could add some weird explanation how shadow energies are making priest casting potent discipline and holy spells lose some shizzle and limit it to 2 times within 1,5 minutes.

This is just a bad bandaide to a bigger problem.

gc clearly stated that md will never get nerfed because of pve so get over it already

How about we don't only do damage every 3 minutes and have a way other than bubble to survive anything that moves?..

[Rhetorical1]

spriest still better in every way

Spriest/ret/resto shaman - any ideas on how someone would kill this

They are nerfing offheals. I hope that they actually nerf offheals enough to promote more triple dps teams.

[Cyanne]

This is exactly the kind of change i like. Giving hybrids more utility is always welcomed. I think they should also return bof out of stuns and innervate returning decent mana and maybe figure out how to give other hybrids some non-healing related utility as well.

The homogenization has taken things way to far already. Getting a hybrid in your arena team shouldn't be just a +1 dps. For all i care they could nerf hybrids dps to 50% as long as they can act like proper hybrids and not some sub-par pure dps class wannabe.

My ret was buried and forgotten as soon as the cata changes went live. Bof out of stuns gone, dispel gone hf playing a holy war with combo points. And their idea of support aka "top someone in 1 heal" lead to the 3dps abomination and a braindead and totally no fun play style.  And even now... sac 2 minutes cd? bop 5 min cd?

I think it's time to put the support back into support classes.

off heals aren't getting nerfed, basically with the latest changes in 5.2 spriest will the the SAME healing it does now and other hybrid classes will heal for more because of the 25% healing buff from pvp power on heals
