This is rediculous. I don’t think I ‘m going to bother again with this game. I see people leaving on every server and everyone is bored of the stupidity OP classes and the totally unbalanced PVP.Blizzard developers team going to kill wow.They want to correct their own big mistakes in the past and done overpovered classes with stuns and fear.Paladins are very easy class for young ppl. they dont need have skill. they need know that they can use only 3 button and they can kill almost all class.

congrutulation Mr.Dr. Greg Street (alias Ghostcrawler), the new Lead Systems Designer for Blizzard!You have no idea how this game should work!

I’m not disagreeing that Blizzard has done a good job since the early days of WoW, but we should never forget that this is the same people who let Arenas and BG completely derail their efforts at class balancing. Blizzard is still struggling with this legacy to this/clearfocus
Blizzard likes this goal Lets make classes that take enourmous amounts of skill to play broken, while faceroll classes destroy everything else.
Its true.I play hunter over 5 years and know how game works,but arena is total unbalanced.I know that you know your job perfect but dont do support where things go wrong.Blizzard do business only.Yours and opinien of mine is not inportant.its true again.

I think it is easy to understand why so many players get upset by these changes. Believe it or not, I do have a Hunter and play him enough to feel the sting of the change as well. But much like our Paladin re-vamp, the Hunter is getting one, too. It will be like playing a new class.

Ghostcrawler, in my opinion, has always had good points, but the way he puts them down in words tends to lead to posts like the one you linked.

The way I view this particular issue is that Blizz wants to stray away from the generic laying down AoE ability for the Hunter. Instead, they will have a much more mobile arsenal at their disposal for what is assumed to be harder trash/content in terms of PvE. Blizz has stated before that the AoE packs will be far less in Cata, and taking down trash won’t be as simple as it was in WotLK. Volley would be a hidnerance here, where as multi-shot may trump other, more reckless AoEs.

GC and Blizz have a direction they want to take with the class, even if it enrages the current player base. One thing we do know, is that no matter how much we percieve them screwing up a class, we still play. We adapt and learn, and find the strengths over time.

I could always moan and whine about the Paladin changes I don’t like, but instead I opt to look at the challenge of mastering a new way of fighting.

These guys at Blizz are smart. They know what they are doing. We may not always like it, but they know what they are doing.

Now, if only we could crack GCs code when he posts, things would be much easier.

Ghostcrawler has done an outstanding job in my opinion. He has been superb in terms of communicating with the player base. I think in this particular instance, I would have chosen a different way to say what he said, but the guy is still pure awesome in my book.

Mr. Greg Street (alias Ghostcrawler), the new Lead Systems Designer for Blizzard .Seriously: Auto-healing, auto-buffed, auto-dispelling, plate-wearer, stunning, damage-sharing, bubble protected class can only be underpowered if you’re sleep-deprived, drug abusing, drunk in an old computer, with laggy connection.
I dont believe him,because he done many wrong things in this nice game.
Wonderful days in this game belong to the past. Go home Mr. Greg Street (alias Ghostcrawler), the new Lead Systems Designer for Blizzard .

hello everybody,
its needless to say ret was op…..he could take half ur hp while ur stunned and even if he cant manage to dps u well…he gives himself another chance with LOH or Divine shield and LOL ur pwnt
dont consider me trolling…but i think that cata changes makes u less op and much no faceroll(except with zealotary/AW anyway )
…this is better for other classes but not for many rets xD
hope numbers gets fixed anyway so every class gets its chance
thanks
