Boomkins and 3.3.5

Thread first seen on June 22, 2010
Identify of Rexxar
Are there any plans for a nerf on Starfall in PvP in 3.3.5..... As of now it hits a 36 yd AoE with a higher DPS than bladestorm.... If that were not enough.. it only has a 1 minute cooldown. My question.. Is it going to be fixed or is blizzard gonna give every class an I-Win button?

As far as i'm aware no class changes are coming next patch.

You may very well be the only player in the entire universe to threaten quitting because Boomkins are OP. :P

Isn't just boomkins... All classes are broken. Some classes have an I-Win button.. some don't... Some classes are invincible... most arent..... In 2v2s... Resto druids are extremely difficult to kill.... boomkins can nearly instant kill the other team... i could go on forever.

Or I get silenced. Everytime I go into BG's. It's like "Oh crap, a Boomkin! Horde, attack the chicken! It's OP!!!!"

I used to think that too, until I rolled all of the OP classes and found their weaknesses. There are definite counter classes though and I hate entering an arena and knowing we are going to lose just based on the comp. I will give you that. And rogues (I have a noob one) are sorta a mess. They can either stunlock someone 100-0 or they lose. (Well, almost that bad) The good news I think is that rogues will be wanted for rated BG's probably.

Might be just me, since im not good at pvp, but i get killed by every other caster, or rogue.

You do realize rogues are broken in PvP and have been for a while right?

Lol somebody got murdered by Starfall and is spending their time QQ'ing about it instead of finding a way to avoid it next time. If it was such a guaranteed "I win" then wouldn't PvP realms be 100% boomkin population?

vanish does not break the entirety of the rogue class. if vanish is key in your pvp play style, you ARE doing it wrong.

Maybe you should look in the mirror and see what is broken, it is not your class.
