Adjust Shadow Wall recast before 4.2!

[Aniya_Estlihn]

I absolutely agree, and I doubt it would be all that difficult a change to make compared to the... other suggestions people have.

It should offer more or last longer.

No. It's literally edgy Sentinel, it is just on too long of a recast time. It literally just needs to have its recast lowered to be the same as Sentinel and Vengeance.

Valid, sure, but after seeing how WAR's getting a ****ton of changes after X amount of their playerbase decried "WE WANT MOAR," I'm quite fed up with simply saying "Can we get some change?" when we deserve a cheque payable to all DRK's for how slighted the class has been.

I don't disagree, but Shadow Wall is fine as is. I'd much rather they restore Shadowskinor provide another skill and merge Blood Weapon / Blood Price into the same button that toggles when in or out of Grit.

There are changes we could benefit from, but a longer, stronger Shadow Wall is just redundant and still doesn't fill the gap we have with our lack of mitigation. Furthermore, were it stronger, it would stack with TBN's 20% if used at the same time which would just be...excessive. Imagine a 40/50% Shadow Wall combined with a 20% TBN and a Galvanize / Nocturnal Shield.. its a bit much when they could just give Shadowskin back to fill the defense gap.

I think this works out to be a nerf (very small since blood price is LOL). If they share a button there is every possibility they will share a timer as well. Meaning that if you find yourself pulling you will need to hold blood price to be able to hit blood weapon as soon as you leave grit. I would much rather they take the stance lock off blood price and blood weapon so both skills can be used regardless of stance.

Ah... you're right, my bad, that's definitely not what we need then. Removing the stance lock like it used to be should be the solution then, that explains why they didn't tie them to one another. Thanks for the insight, I totally ddidn't think about that.

How about a skill that grant blood price while grit is on and blood weapon while its off

Instead of doing that, give us a brand new ability...call it shadow skin or something and have it reduce damage by 20%.

It's much easier to adjust one variable than to reimplement an ability, I have to imagine- again, this thread serves to hopefully get a last-minute change added in, not to discuss what the best way to adress DRK's mitigation could be. It's true we still lack fluff mitigation cooldowns, but I'm not expecting them to add a whole new cooldown in a matter of 2 days; besides, a buff to Shadow Wall is long, long overdue.
