Shaman's purge

Post#1 » Fri Jun 19, 2026 6:47 am

I want to apologise to all the shaman players for the 8 second cd on purge. After spam purging this bald retri paladin from his seals(played by one of the devs) the upcoming patch nerfed shamans even more. /The crit talent was removed as well. Orc stun resist was removed so paladins and their gf rogues can freely cc you./

I am not going to play shaman this time around, because it's trash now. At least remove the purge cd,this is a joke. Shaman is an offensive play style class and 8 seconds cooldown on purge is ridiculous.

If this server is also favourable towards the paladins that were buffed to be S++ tier in both pvp/pve, just add seal protection talent to protect their seals from dispell,but don't massacre shaman toolkit.

No need to adapt to bad design,I won't play shaman for sure. Twow was highly BS toward making meme paladins op while they were supposed to be a support class. Why not make paladin cleanse 8 sec cd,they are op enough to handle it?!

Either make all dispells with a cd or don't ruin shamans.
8 second cd on purge is huge nerf.

Shaman is trash?
As an x mage player that switched to Shaman, purge cd was one of their best decisions
In the meantime, Shamans are completely OP
Arcane mages could global shamans before you can purge them anyway. The state of pvp balance and shaman class in this case is bad due to crybabies like you. I see how the nerf is good from your perspective,but why ruin other players fun just because you are bad. Every class should have a counter/soft counter. If you dominate all classes its not a balance at all.

crybabies like me?
do we know each other? :lol:
What part of playing Shaman as main, you dont understand?
Shamans are OP and require more nerfs imo

Actually right now, pvp balance is so shit, that Palas - Shamans and Hunters needs immediate big nerfs
Hey Tifa, but AM is all fine i assume and do not require nerf :D ?

As you wrote - there's no balance. And there will not be any, it's impossible.

Sorry for bad formatting, but I'm just going to hard disagree with that whether or not one or both of you said it. I'm not taking a side in the shaman debate tho. It is a class i'd try in the future regardless.

But it isn't any burst of shamans issue, rather overall all classes on turtle/octo are bursty as hell.

insane burst, insane armor, insane healing
Shamans are busted
That is opinion not fact.
Mages has insane cc, escape tools and burst as well.
I would definafely nerf Arcane Missles - maby like Purge to 8 sec cd ;) ?
Ps: i'd say nerf wfw would be good and fair, but elemental is nefred like a lot and restoration is barely used as any other non-pala heal, healing is simply not efficent in all that burstness.
