Wrath WP Mobility VS DoK

Post#1 » Fri Mar 21, 2025 8:40 am

Hi, i'd like to point out that while warrior priests who play 2handed wrath like myself mainly, think its rather odd that recently you removed the slow component from Judgement. whilst we have zero sprint/charge capabilities, our one slow(40%) only lasts 3 seconds (6) when debuffed.

Hammer of Sigmar our execute just got turned into a hard hitting but heavy RF spending ability(i'm fine with it, but miss the execute 100% component)

Meanwhile DoKs have an aura for the entire group whenever u attack chance to apply a slow debuff for 20% movement speed reduction.
Their version of Hammer of sigmar seems untouched ( still 100% crit whenever u are drowning in blood )
They got a ability with 5second CD and 5sec duration 25% crit damage increase
They have a slow that slows for 60%.
If they kill someone with the execute they get a 50% movement speed increase for 5 seconds.

On the lakes i used to be able to Kind off catch up with (bad) Squig herders & shamans due to judgement slowing a little bit.
But now those odds have shifted even more, especially agaisnt players who know what they are doing.

The new changes to WP this week were all fine imo, but instead of focusing on extra damage components like an armor debuff which is very useful.
Perhaps a bit more mobility would have been well appreciated ! :)
Thank you

And for the people who are going to reply with ' the game is not a solo game! ' That is correct, but even in group settings this can be a hinderance, for two classes that should kind of mirror eachother, one sure seems to outshine mobility/slowing wise by a long run

If you design a class, be it healer archetype, to have a fully fledged melee build, which they are obviously trying to achieve with armor debuffs. healing debuffs, strong damage. then a bit of mobility shouldn't be out of the question; as any melee should have. especially when the ranged in this game esp sham/sh have such good mobility & kiting potential.

The issue of WP (wrath) lacking a gap closer is not in comparison to the DoK mirror.

It just stands to reason that a melee dps spec need to have a gap closer, a standard tool vs ranged kiters. Just common sense.

WP had this through the judgment snare, which felt balanced enough. I have suggested to add this effect back with a condition like only proccing from the flank, like the WH pistol snare, in return it could be increased to a 30% snare. This is certainly not too much to ask for.
