why was bubble hearth killed?

[Fridmarr]

I am pretty sure they just wanted to reduce the duration of Divine Shield due to PVP, and were unconcerned with the side-effect that this got rid of Bubble-Hearthing.

Absolutely. It's not like other classes didn't have decent escape mechanisms, especially in a world with (instacast) flying mounts, invisibility, stealth etc etc.

Bah! It's way more fun to believe in an anti-bubblehearth conspiracy

Well many warriors still haven't realized that they can dispel bubbles and iceblocks too, though.

This!

The only thing worse than this.. I dueled a pally and he bubbled, I broke it and finished him off.. he said "Wth, my bubble didn't work.. it went away after like.. 2 seconds"

Last Relic of Argus.

You can only use it once every 12 hours but it's been a life saver dozens of times for me.

Getting swarmed? BUBBLE LAST RELIC!!!

I've used it once but it was more like "I could not be bothered killing these respawns that just ganked me after finishing last TB daily. I'll relic out of here and turn them in back at camp later."

I expect this to get flagged "not in combat" at some point.

Another side note is that a lot of non-hearthstone teleports are affected by haste. Kirin Tor ring and Argent Tabard spring to mind. I always fish in the Dalaran comp using max-haste gear to cut a few ms off my port time in the event that I catch the shark (still never seen one though).

They got rid of 'Eyes of the beast' as well.

That had so many fun applications.
Friend of had a horde hunter on a PvP server.
Went and tamed a green teldrasill spider, then went and hid behind a tree in the Nelf start area.
Used his spider to stalk and chase unknowing noobs.

You can still do that with the move command.
Sadly though, a noob may be worried by seeing a ?? level spider with 100k or so hp.

There were a lot of things removed in 4.0 that really make no sense to me.


I mean, what justification can you possibly give for removing Divine intervention, sense undead, and eyes of the beast?

Because no other classes could have them...?

(Personally, I don't get it either.)

What justification could you give for them being there in the first place?

How else are we supposed to pull Geddon and Shazzrah?
