nerf after nerf has come. I have been on the side of ghostcrawler and blizzard for them all. I have thought, for some strange reason, everything will be ok but if any truth can be seen in the logic of bornak and ghostcrawler, i'm done with this game.
example 1: "The point was that Retribution's representation is at a pretty good place for the highest rated players. Maybe it's even balanced. But as you drop down 100 points, its percentage grows. The deeper you drop, the more it grows. We feel like we owe the lower rated players, who still might be good at PvP and just not world-class, as balanced a game as we can. - Ghostcrawler"
- You can't be serious. All things being equal, skill level and gear level at the top, GC says that "maybe it's even balanced" (refering to representation) but we were too good against people at lower levels in arena. That's not taken out of context; that pretty much spells it out. We aren't good enough to be great at pve (bottom of the barrel there too from the last parses i checked) and we can't be great at pvp either because, get this, CASUALS AND BADS NEED TO FEEL GOOD ABOUT THEMSELVES.
I will agree that we have a relatively simple time with our abilities as we lack many "skill buttons" (in before LOLFACEROLLERZ). HOWEVER, whose fault is that? It isn't as though we haven't been BEGGING for more skill abilities. I, personally, have seen many other rets asking for a snare, ms, gap closer, silence/interrupt at the cost of damage/burst only to be scoffed at by other communities.
