2.3: More changes to comeFollow

Which also means it will be a rather long time before 2.3 comes out. I don't think many small guilds are going to make it to then.

Taking away the deadzone sounds like too much...

my god. For a moment the word deadzone wasnt registering in my brain.

it wasnt that i didnt know what it meant. It was just that as a rogue i COULDNT make myself consider it.

The deadzone being that there is no spot between melee and ranged where Hunters can't do anything, not that they can still pewpew you with arrows when you're right in their face.

They'd lower the minimum range on arrows to 6 yards, and with a 5 yard melee range you'd be within range of either their bow or their melee weapons at all times.

EDIT: I think we posted at about the same time, Tyr. =p

And I keep hearing that, but please, test it. I've spent time testing it in duels and it's not accurate; if I can't melee you, I can't whirlwind you.

actually zip, i can attest to WW having an 8 yard range. first off, it says it on the tooltip. secondly, ive killed any number of cocky mages who thought they could frost nova > back into deadzone > polymorph and get away with <10% health. rogues who try to deadzone kite will get WW'ed too sometimes, if the situation calls for it. good way to kill an FD'ed hunter too, especially if youre snare trapped or rooted with entrapment.

more than that, its a common tactic of mine to stand as equidistant from 2-4 people as i can when i WW if they all look like theyd be in range. its quite effective used right.

The only thing I can think of is that it's a side effect of being a tauren, because I know I have a deadzone. I'll test again later tonight.

Not sure if they're related, but the Warrior Weapon Mastery (moved to Fury in place of Death Wish - thanks for nothing, Blizz) is going to be changed to a flat -4% Dodge rather than a certain amount of Expertise. It's possible something similar will happen with the Rogue Weapon Expertise.

I raid as Fury, and I had Death Wish when I went PvP spec regardless. So... yes, actually. It doesn't change Arms build in the slightest, really, but it screws Fury rather nicely.

Yea, i didn't factor in a PVE Fury perspective.


I seriously don't think about anything but PVP. In fact i might update my sig.
