Here's a thought - are you sure he was a Ret pally? There've been a number of cases of "undefeatable" Prot pallies around in BGs nowadays (read: melee classes can't touch them).
As an opposition player - how can you define what's a 'blue' weapon? Or are you referring to the fact that the weapon was the colour blue?
For the record, Seal of Blood/Martyr is not RNG burst. Seal of Command is RNG burst, and hopelessly unreliable. For those who defend Blood - the damage you take is miniscule compared to the damage dealt. You've got no chance of one-shotting yourself with a hi-po Judgement anymore.
To all the whingers about how OP Ret pallies are and the like, it's just scissors paper rock. We're the rock. Leather/mail-wearers are generally the scissors. Clothies are generally the paper at the moment. We will happily stomp all over the scissors. We will much less happily go running around in circles as clothies go fear dot dot dot dot fear drain fear...

I kill ret pallies all the time on my feral durid. But in a duel when they know it's a feral druid they face, it's a lot harder to kill them.
I was destroying a ret that had the furious mace on my ret pally(I don't have the rating yet....), then he started targeting me every time he had his wings off CD and had 4 buddies to help him. Stupid belfs running around with a resto shaman(in horrible gear) and 2 dk's! Stun>freedom>Hex... QQ>chain>pet stun....
You say ret is OP? Then why can't I burst a 14k HP resto shaman down before I get killed by a dk/ret combo when I get the initial burst?
It's not the ret. It's your team's lack of anything useful. My #1 pet pieve, resto shaman spamming grounding totem and eating EVERY LAST ONE of my freaking stuns.
WTB bliztards un nerfing Exorcism and Hand of reckoning so we can kill totems without standing on it for 3 seconds waiting for a melee swing! SO F@#*ING G@Y! I have a deep hate for resto shaman.

I don't have a problem with ret pallys currently.
I'm a feral druid.
If i get pounce off on them, the only thing that can save them is bubble, i usally just run off and heal, then return later.
But i suppose i might have it slightly easier, if i'm stunned in cat-form i take -30% damage, if i pop barkskin, its -20%, and -25% crit (total -44% damage, -40% crit rate). Their damage goes nowhere.
I don't play a rogue (although the idea is temping), but if your comparing yourself to a ret paladin when your out of stealth, your already at a huge disadvantage. I'm not going to bother to point out the other abilities you have to help counter them.
All else fails, start working on getting armor penetration going.

stunlock
, and win.
You were killing downsies.
+1
There is only one way I get killed by a rogue with all my cooldowns. He manages a really really good chain of CC/run away and bandage. The only way for him to win is if he manages to use cloak on my stun. It doesn't take long at all to kill a rogue when he can't avoid my attacks and HoF to get out of KS leaves my trinket for blind, then you get another opener and I bubble/repent you, heal myself, then burst you. At this point you have half hp if you trinketed. Then you prep and vanish, no more get out of jail free cards, and at this point my HoF is ready for another stunlock that is going to end with me at 3/4-1/2 hp and you dead. That's assuming you are good enough to make me bubble.

Lawl. Shamans are the easiest healers to kill, and grounding totem can only go down once every 15 seconds (high geared PvP specced shamans can reduce the cooldown by 3.5 seconds). Here's to hoping we can be as OP come the next patch.
