Re: Rogues need to be nerfed
It doesn't take away from the truth of it.
Yes, it's a crappy lock, with crappy stats and crappy skills and crappy ratings. But what he says is true. Seduce and fear were put on the same DR. Then they were both nerfed to be 10 secs max and, in PVP, have a high chance to break on damage (i.e. DoTs from someone with my stats WILL break PVP fear). Why wasn't the same done to rogues and their stuns and spell lockouts? Why can they still do unabated damage while you're stunlocked with no increase in the chance to break the stunlock? Alongside CloSkill, how's that fair. Rogue murder clothies, and clothies chance to fight back has been negated. Note that as much as this lock whines, the situation is MUCH worse for a shadow priest. Regardless, they buff and nerf all the time, I'll adapt. Whatever. |

Re: Rogues need to be nerfed
But from what I understand, a full stunlock build (Mutilate) is achieved at the cost of lower overall damage, right? And if you have Mutilate build you can't have Hemo or Preparation. The bloke above is assuming that a level 70 rogue will have access to EVERY talent in EVERY tree.

Rogues do tend to have an advantage over clothies, though it didn't stop be from wtfpwning them on my priest when I played one, and on my paladin it is no contest. They're good, but you can outline the inherent strengths of any class... that doesn't make it overpowered. |

Re: Rogues need to be nerfed
Sword/combat dps was nerfed a bit IIRC. And sap was brought down in duration in PvP. Still, pets don't chase you after using vanish anymore, which is a buff and nerf to other pet classes.
Nothing huge. I think the time of the really massive rogue nerfs is over with.
