The Little Class that Cried Nerf!
Was it always like this? It goes without saying that WoW has been. I can't recall pre-wow if the situation was the same. I challenge you to go to any class forum and with in the first page you will find... Your OP... You play this class cause its EZMODE! X Class Takes NO SKILL!
I find it funny that all of the classes in WoW are actually perfectly balanced... they all take no skill. Well according to the forums anyway, and if you believe that I have a Black Temple attuned 60 Rogue in greens to sell you. Is it our first instinct as individuals that when we are beaten to make excuses, theories, and explanations of why it happened. Have we simply taken the next logical step which would be that once we are beaten enough we take to preaching our explanations and excuses to the masses to convince our peers of the same thing that we have convinced ourselves of.
Personally I like to look inward, maybe its just not in my nature to level blame at another class when I am killed. Granted I always play a Rogue... I have 2 70's a Night Elf Rogue and an Undead Rogue. When it sucks to be a Rogue... I am still a rogue. I don't have a flavor of the month class. When I am beat in a 1 v 1 I look at my hotbar and analyze the last bit of my combat log... I should have done x at y time... and geez I still have evasion up... totally should have used that.
A lot of the responses I will undoubtedly receive will be ... of course you don't think about nerfing other classes ... your class is OP! OMGROLLMEINBBQSAUCE! But I don't remember the instantaneous call for Nerfing of one class or another in the other games I played. Even if there was the Dev's ussually responded STFU you newbs. Blizzard dev's are more of the "Yessir" variety I guess.
Granted I am used to the fact that I was given stealth to avoid confrontation. As such it was natural for me to be the least powerful class. I looked at every buff other classes received as something I needed to different. The strategy was constantly changing.
Reviewing the forums I have noticed that every class is OP, has a EZMODE, IMBA builds, and unbalanced abilities that have some sacrcastic pet nickname like... Cloak of Skill.
What does all this mean... how do you sum up this entire post... Take a step back, look inward, dont cry Nerf little boy.
