Ret nerfed hard via unannounced hotfix.

[Dianora]

Divine Storm is now physical damage. That's about 50% reduction damage on bosses. Seal of Command also nerfed.

Well, the QQer wins.

I really never thought I'd say this but... it really did need to be nerfed. It's not as though we were in the dark about it coming. I played an AV last night, and was watching the Paladins going crazy, and at one point was seeing a line of 4 paladins (opposing) running opposite each other around a group of horde, and the one thing that came to my mind was a meat grinder in action.

On a full sundered boss I doubt its much DPS loss on DS, but what did they do to SoC?

[Legionp]

DS changed to physical is expected in my mind (can be cast while silenced, just like CS). But yeah, what happened to SoC?

Supposedly that got tone down as well.

My biggest problem with this is the nerf I'll take to my tanking threat with Divine Storm.

[Levantine]

Playing around with my Pally alt, it looks like Command is doing physical damage as well. It's hitting for less than my white strikes now.

ret paladins approaching arms warriors in pvp does indeed warrant a hot fix

Nerf ret, I got one hit in on a decently geared mage. Ret must be OP.

That mage failed hard if you got anywhere near him.

Sounds like every pre-made I have ever faced in WSG, except replace the paladins with warriors. Hmm.

exactly. where does it say that ret shouldn't be a viable pvp spec???? i'm already getting beat very often by mages, and several other classes that get the jump on me.

this nerf is a little pre-mature, imo. give it 2 weeks to play out, it's amazing what people can come up with in terms of strategy to overcome seeming balance inequalities.

The QQer win a fair fight in my opinion

It does not fuck up pvp for us , it just means other people can have a chance at beating us even if we stun em and unload all we got

Also as pointed sunders AND blood frenzy will make up for it in PvE up to a point , although admitely it is nerfed
