    So is this where we are at? We ignore implications/balance as long as we get more new people playing? Seems like a strange mentality for the health of competitive feast

    All honesty, I thought it was ridiculous I could just shut a caster down buy building procs on MCH while waiting for my burst to refresh, and we still have Feint, and that is the go to caster shut down anyway, on GCD even with GB up.

    Queues were already getting to the point of 30+ minutes and it just came out. Enjoy playing against the same 10 people... But like you elitists always try to tell us "just adjust your strategy like we did" .

    You do realize that if this change goes in and is as OP as we expect it will be then this will negatively affect casuals more than anyone else? You thought it was bad now, just wait. These "Elitists" will have an even bigger advantage.

    A good BLM will be able to get sleeps off with ease on anyone pressuring him, and then go full DPS mode and be free to burst. Sleep immune? No problem, he'll just freeze you. Oh sleep and bind immune? No problem, Heavy. Rinse, repeat, laugh.

    Casual BLM's will still be wearing DPS accessories, have very little HP, and melt just like they do now.

    Are you not using any CC on the BLM or what?

    Oh cmon... having spells interrupted EVERY ATTACK was beyond ridiculous... I'm not saying that it is completely balanced now, but I'm saying that the idea of being interrupting by every single auto attack or ability was just plain stupid.

    I will tell you this, I stopped pvp'ing solely because of the interruption a LONG time ago as a healer main. I freaking hated it. It pretty much told every tank/dps to sit on healers the whole fight. Now they actually have to interrupt using a stun or some kind of cc which fosters more skillfull play imo.

    This change allowed me to try pvp again and I am LOVING IT. So if their goal was to attract more people to pvp, then it was a great success for myself and likely many others.
