Re: To Rogues. From Blizzard Devs.

locks have nothing to whine about.  dont they get some crazy curse that reduces physical dmg by a shit load at lvl 70?? basically making any melee class useless.

Re: To Rogues. From Blizzard Devs.

you know.. if you read it better it says that the mage has been the best dmg dealer in the expansion, sure this could be about a nerf of mages or a buff for rogues but that doesn't leave out the option that they aren't just referring to some other upcoming expansion pack, which I doubt myself but it's an option that I can see coming, just not now

Re: To Rogues. From Blizzard Devs.

the only thing we can do is dps (mostly single target), its our only raid utility

mages can buff, supply the raid with water, AOE, single target dps

Why would anyone take rogues with them on raids? We need more healing, we do less dps, we can`t buff, we can barely AOE, and we get outdamaged by mages. That needs a fix.

mages dont have to conjure water to the raid anymore.. you can buy better water from your local bartender.

Re: To Rogues. From Blizzard Devs.

mages should be the best dmg dealers IMO, since they can't keep it going forever like the rogues.
So while mages have mana left, they should outdps rogues by quite a lot if you ask me.

mages should get agro reducing skills then tongue they can prolly outdps us, but it will most likely result in them getting agro and the raid wiping

Rogues have to be in melee range to do any dmg, which makes it much harder for us.  in PvE we soak up the cleaves, aoe's etc which mages dont.  In PvP as we all know ranged > melee. therefore rogues should do more dps tongue

LOL! Serious damage? For mana reasons (JoW) I use the fastest wand I've seen (1.3 speed) that hits (!) for around 70 dmg. You call that serious damage? smile Man, in 1,3 seconds I can almost cast a scorch that hits for around 550 damage and crits very often, so it helps rolling ignites smile Really, wanding = no damage at all smile

I'm verry sorry that i've chosen improved counterspell (4 second silence) or magic absorbtion (+10 resistances more, mana regen on white resists), and not that imba 25% more mana from the wand. Both all my PvE and PvE specs suffer and cry. :-(

And they can overagro and die , where rogues Vanish big_smile
the reason rogues do more dps than mages is due to the ammount of threat that dps will give you.
