PvP balance is not as bad as people make out.

There is a lot of talk from PvP players about this class being OP or that class; with how fast some of the class changes where happening, it's hard for us to truly gauge the strength of specs. People need time to learn match-ups and how to deal with X in Y situation. You will never please everyone and many players are ignorant to their match-ups whilst trying to fight rock with scissors.

There is enough trinkets and free utility in the game that allows those who are willing to put in the time and practice to learn and eventually overcome a match-up that they once deemed impossible.

So please, players, calm down in calling for nerfs and put in the work to become better players.

Edit: And devs please don't feel pressured to adhere to the noise and roll out rash changes.

It certainly is better than in patches 1.17.X.
It's still not in good shape though.

You are grasping so hard at straws right now.

Nah I was thinking it's some shaman or just horde player who does not play vs shamans.
Found out he is just an alliance lvl 45 rogue. He remembers the good old days when he was playing on TA with T3.5 geared rogue vs shamans.
I'll wait for him to lvl up here and to see what he can do in the current gear.

Yes, and I also remember back when I started on Tel'Abim: it was already fully progressed with people raiding k40; I worked my way up PvPing in dungeon blues, carrying my weight. For the majority of TA I was undergeared yet competeting with those at the top.

Let's not get personal, I don't want to engage in arguments with you: soon we will be fighting on the same team in BGs and I want a positive relationship.

You're really boring mon. Its 20 years old game. If u havent learn to play this so far, you will always have skill issue.
