OOPS All Nerfs! Retribution Paladin Rework Weekly Update

In this video I go over the latest round of nerfs and changes for ret. To be fair there were a couple buffs with all the nerfs.

[kail_]

Ret meme is getting closer to rebirth and it's not even dead yet because it's Ptr

[timaeus]

Its sad how there is a 20k dps gap between ret and rogues, then u see ret being nerfed while its still in the ptr, and rogues just running around broken. Idk whats that benefit of 1 class doing 50% more damage than another class in an mmo

[SymbianBlack]

They just HATE Plain and simple. Throw us meaningless trinkets. EVERY class Dev plays there spec. There ISN'T a dev who solely play Ret. You got devs who play OTHER classes developing for Ret and is Sabotaging the spec and more so the spec. they dont even care if we know anymore

[edwardhatfield]

Would have been nice if we had at least a week (on live)with a strong finisher.

Freedom can be dispelled now which means ret has 1 second normal movement speed every 19 seconds against anithing that dispels/steals, and with those dmg mega nerfs ret may come out worse than before...

[edwardhatfield]

So... Everyone that was working on gearing their fresh paladins should have been working on every other melee that exists instead?

[Thegamerslounge]

Yea this round of changes is garbage also crusading strikes not benefiting from windfury just destroyed that potential it has

[Robert]

I hope blizz wanting us to stay where we are is not true. Otherwise, after the rework we'll still be a class no1 wants to bring.

[shawnh]

They showed us how fun ret COULD be then they said "Nah we don't want yall to have fun" and have been removing everything new that was fun.

[edwardhatfield]

You're the only content creator that bothered(so far) to feature and discuss at some length with the masses these large nerfs. I think transparency is key and people that are not in the know and not careful watching Blue posts may have already started working on their retribution paladins with 2 week old information. This violent swing from having Havoc Demon Hunter level damage to maybe seeing an exceptional few people playing Retribution due to tuning is absolutely newsworthy. Blizzard needs to know this is not ok. And players need to know it appears that Retribution will perform in the future, similar to live now, that is to say, very poorly.

[Steve-fxrq]

Good to know. Can now stop leveling my paladin.

[trevorharper]

I might as well start leveling a DK... at least I bring something to the group and can do damage. 10.0.7 was my last chance to stay ret. Also my own stupidity... My alts are Enhance and Feral. I play the 3 classes that are Blizz meme classes...

[Dan.]

Ngl man, after they butchered the Outlaw core rotation and flow in 10.0.5, i've put a lot of hope into this rework. Me right now: 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡. Back to tracking 8 buffs at once, while maintaining 3 more, do stuns and intrerupts at the same time just to miss a proc and drop 15k dps lmao

[mcrocksmylife]

Crusade nerf did it for me. It’s almost useless now, back to a 2 min spec

[MrJamezy]

With Freedom dispellable I made a post stating PvP mobility was nurfed and that was not acceptable after being told Ret would get improvements. I stated there was zero concern from me that Ret would be less mobile in PvP and it seemed impossible that ret would get mobility nurfs... I pointed out I never thought WoL would go on the PTR but expected to at least get a marginal improvement not a nurf. Got a couple of likes on my post and Blizzard Deleted it and temp banned me from the forums...

This company...

[angelabadzhiev]

Do ret still gets to have the 1 min Wings talent and the 35 sec Crusade is what im interested in.

[daniel-zqf]

If they want our DPS to stay the same then just scrap the whole rework. I like Ret as is.

[robusmc]

Sounds familiar from the beginning of shadowlands, they tease us then take it away

[robusmc]

Freedom now is Dispellable we complain about mobility and they make it worse, dusting off my wheelchair ♿️

[tinkerfailurecristianmaria]

Let's do the math on Vanguard of justice: if 3 holy power is 100% dmg then 1 holy power is 33% extra dmg, being below that is actually a self nerf if you take that:)).
