This is a partial complain with some insight to my madness and reasons why it should not be removed.
********************************************8

Maybe in past seasons it has been an issue but it's NOT an issue now::: Y?!???!

Healers can dispel, if I'm correct...ALL healers can dispel...DRAIN MANA CAN BE DISPELLED OFF OF YOURSELF HEALERS, HEADS UP

Drain games are a lot more difficult now. If a warlock is getting GOOD drain mana's on you...you either need to get a BETTER partner who will do something about it, or DISPEL yourself

Drain Mana does not need to be nerfed. Sure our power comes in our arena comps, making us a huge comp variety power house, especially with the tools we bring to the table, but how is Drain Mana even REMOTELY OP?!?

The ONLY CLASS that I see that it has a problem with is on priest, and that's being said due to their poor mana issues and stuff :'-( but that's it...and how many TOP priest, actually..all healers (remember that word...top) REALLY have a problem with that?? almost NONE!! why?? because they have good partners that can control that, and even more if they know how to deal with it

the only way drain mana chain's will occur is if the warlock's team is better

now for the word "top"..i mean top because THEY know how to play..they understand mechanics and what is needed to protect themselves.

I feel..and MANY MANY MANY other warlocks feel the same when I say this, Why do you feel the need to nerf/remove a LONG TIME OWNED ability, for players who can't go to the forums, 3rd party WoW pvp Site, or make a simple google on how to deal with the situation?

it's completely unfair to remove it. In very situational move that does work...in situations.
If you're going to remove a UNIQUE ability to warlocks...might as well remove the class and just keep mages...since the only thing really separating us are dots and pets...

TL:DR: The warlock community (and their arena partners) ask to please not remove Drain Mana ability, as we feel that the move is being eliminated due to players without common sense complaining about an already nerfed ability, used in VERY situational circumstances.


Feel free to CONSTRUCTIVELY comment and petition this "Drain Mana" removal.

With the mindset that Drain Mana is NOT OP, read this, "With PvP problems there are PvP solutions" - Blizzard
