Has anyone else realized that Ret pally's are the only two handed melee who really get shafted on the weapon chain deal?
Dk's have their runes, warriors their glove bonus, and the other melee have two weapons to put it on their off hand.
I guess an argument can be made that warriors damage is ALL melee weapon damage.. but what about DK's in comparison to ret?

Just a thought

[Justwoo]

do any dks even use their weapon chain? i haven't seen any, maybe because there's no dks this season or something.

I don't know if DKs still do this, but use to, they would haev 2 weapons. 1 with wep chain rune enchant, and the other one with the ofefnsive enchant. and they would swap weapons when they felt a disarm was coming, such as. they'd pop cooldowns, swap weapons, get disarm. swap to main weapon. I dont' know if they still do that now a days, seems like more thought put into a game that requires little thought process. Same with rets too really, alot of old rets would do that.

Ya, i totally understand where you are coming from. But considering that blizzard for some reason is normalizing every class to the point where everyone has a kick, an immune, big damage reduction and so on.. I was wondering why this was over looked.

On those grounds.. Our shield wall is also garbage considering a lot of what is out there. Using a major glyph to get 20% damage reduction is kinda bs in my opinion..
Might explain a bit more why our survivability is shit this season.... (KFC KFC KFC KFC)

Just another thought - if they are normalizing the game, not doing it right

i would have 0 conq right now if i bought 2 weps, maybe next season. In season 11 i had 3. Even had spellshattering for 50% silences. maybe next season without dumb upgrades

No they don't. That was my point.. that rets are kinda the only ones that need to.

Ya, those were the good days, but now since swapping weapons is a global, and the "upgrading" system...cant really get two sets of weapons even if you're doing RBG's.
Sad how you are forced to do RBG's.... but then remember that your a class not accepted in them.

I know what you mean bro, it must suck. I wish every melee also had huge heals for themselves and bigger heals for their partner....

You bring up a good point, but just last week i was wondering Has anyone else realized that Ret pally's are the only two handed melee who really get shafted on the weapon chain deal? Dk's have their runes, warriors their glove bonus, and the other melee have two weapons to put it on their off hand. I guess an argument can be made that warriors damage is ALL melee weapon damage.. but what about DK's in comparison to ret? Just a thought

I understand your frustrations being a rogue this season friend - dont need to take it out on me.
A support class is a support class is a support class.
