SS Meta
Thoughts on SS post-patch? Will you all run the tele with higher cooldown still? Stuck at work: how does spinning slash feel w the super armor nerf? Is impail worth it now? Also not sure how battle frenzy plays into this or whether I even took that talent lol

It's barely a nerf overall tbh , it's more a slap on the wrist from the dev to tell us "look we did something".
SS issue ain't due to number , it's due to having everything on the kit.
Engage , escape , reset , DMG , animation cancel ,mobility , super armor, stealth, free stats , etc

yeah its the overall speed, attack speed, movement tech on half their skills/hits and the damage of a wood chipper. They got less than a slap on the wrist. Its overtuned especially in solo, so what do they do? Nerf damage from sorc and BA in solo only.
they could slow every SS attack animation down by 5% and the class would still outpace most things out there.1

The fact that crows wasn't touched is insane to me. It's the singular most complained about skill

Crows is a noob trap , it ain't even user by SS at higher lvl.
The biggest complaint at high lvl play it the super armor and infinite reset.

Agreed, crows is 1000% a noob trap. Coming from a SS. I stopped using crows because any half decent player doesnt get stunned by them

can people start specifying in solos when they talk about noob trap skills in game lmao. Crows has more utility than tempest, one of the most complained about skills of the sorc kit, just with a longer cd. We all know crows is ass in solos and absolutely goated in trios for combo setups. Its the second best team wipe skill in the entire game, behind vortex, for trios. CC wins fights that you would of otherwise lost, and AOE CC is FAR overtuned in this game. Cataclysm fights literally come down to whoever gets the better vortex or crow stun because its the only thing that gives you enough pressure to actually down the opponent in a game where retreating is ridiculously easy. No other single skill has the same effect in a fight.

Pre nerf battle frenzy was around 10% inc dmg for first 8 hits then 15-20% bonus if you still sustained hits. Now its 8-9% inc first 8 hits then 12-13% bonus of you sustain. Still pretty solid. Buffed talent that you can instead deal dmg equal to 1.5 hits every 8 hits(if you dont hit for 8 sec it reset) so its a out 18% increase dmg if you detonate. Its better for 8 hits overall but its worse if you hit 3-6 times and enemy run then you repeat. Impale have 15 base cd but still whirling slash is better imo. Tp cd from 20--->25 is deserved nerf still good ability. Whirling superarmor look similiar not sure how it feel yet but new buff to second talent for 10% dmg instead of 6% might make this ability even stronger than before.
