Spell pushback deemed harmful
Spell pushback deemed harmful
I certainly think there needs to be a limit on the amount of knockback possible. While I don’t think the mechanic itself is a bad one. I do think that there needs to be a limit on it. While facing slower melee classes it doesn’t present such a major problem. However, when facing classes with very quick attacks it definitely presents a problem which I don’t think was actually intended by the developers.
This is one reason that Pre-BC when SM/Ruin for a Warlock was considered a decent spec, it changed in Outland. Anything with a cast time is a waste of possible DPS unless you have someone locked down for certain. It’s the reason for SL/SL specs, it’s the reason why some mages are using Arcane Missles and Frost Specs to hold their opponents down. It’s also the reason Druids use HoT’s and why HoT’s are slowly spreading to all classes. Don’t work around the problem, try to fix the problem.
That’s just my opinion. Hope no one finds it too silly haha.
