Subject: Blue - A 8 Debuff Limit Idea... |
| |
Alright - I apologize in advance if this has been suggested before, but here's an idea with reguards to the debuff limit issue.
There's been alot of issues reguarding the 8 limit, with Curses and DoT's getting knocked off in a manner of seconds, especially at higher levels, so the idea that I have for how to fix this is to both raise the debuff limit and implement different classes of debuffs.
Because some debuffs, such as curses have a long timespan (30 sec +) they almost never reach their full potential while abilities such as stuns that last 1 - 3 seconds always override because they are cast more often. What if on a mob you could have, instead of 8 Debuffs total, mabye 4 Curses, 4 DoT's and 12 Debuffs? That way, you don't have to worry about losing your CoA on a mob because the Pally just used Hammer of Justice and Judgement.
Further, if all 4 Curse slots are filled it defaults to a DoT slot (So if CoE, CoA, CoR and CoS are already on a mob and you cast CoW, it fills a DoT slot rather than the curse slot) and similarly, if all 4 DoT slots are filled (Say with 2 Corruptions and 2 Immolates) your CoW that your casting fills 1 of the 12 Debuff Ability slots where all remaining abilities go.
This way, the devs still have their limit present, but Warlocks, Priests, and all classes that have low cost - high time DoT's can become useful in raids more the way we were intended.
Suggestions? Comments? Flames?

We're going to be addressing the eight limit debuff restriction currently in place with an upcoming patch. Once they inform me as to which patch this is slated for, along with the specific details for improvement I will provide an update.

But he didn't say it would favor us.
Well, it isn't being lowered. :p
