I'm about 10% sure of that (down from 25%). Comment by Kanariya So now these casting slows are worthless. They're making the same mistake they did back in Cataclysm when they reduced Mortal Strike and other similar reduced healing effects to 10%. It's unnecessary. Comment by Jazzism I like to see some background logic to the casting slow nerfs. This is odd considering they've been this way since what .. LK days? Why the nerf now? Comment by rinkworks The complaints that casting in PvP is weak and overly defensible are numerous. I'm sure this is just one step of potentially several designed to make casting stronger in PvP. It does seem like only a partial step toward that goal, as slowing effects aren't even the main reason casting is hazardous, but it's a step.

If they left casting and healing debuffs at 25% they wouldn't have to turn around and introduce things like PvP Rules Enabled (HARDCODED). Comment by ayligerwolf will there be any changes to Hex, Sheep, Freezing Trap, etc? Comment by Rankkor I'm sensing a theme with these changes...\r

lol, good one. Comment by Random0028 So now these casting slows are worthless. They're making the same mistake they did back in Cataclysm when they reduced Mortal Strike and other similar reduced healing effects to 10%. It's unnecessary.

More like they are becoming so necessary you want to build a team around it. Did you ever see a team without a Mortal strike effect outside of Ele\/lock\/x before they nerfed it (post-wotk)? No. not a chance. It was necessary.

As a player who's played enhancement since the game was released it was really frustrating from season 1-8 to not be able to play with casters because you really needed MS. Not exactly strange we played melee cleaves. Comment by s4mourai Its all about freak mages.... Come ON! Comment by Ryukn Use your head please\r
\r
or \r

Just play a caster and try to cast against melee and cast time debuff user\r
\r
Good luck Comment by Ryukn How in gods name was Mortal strike and other healing reduction unnecessary and how is this nerf uneccesary. You can't be serious. Use your head ffs \r

Did you ever play a healer in wotlk or early cata? do you even play a caster at the moment. God you're so stupid Comment by Interest Holy wow. It's a bit late in the expansion to do these changes eh? Maybe just a prep for 5.5?So now these casting slows are worthless. They're making the same mistake they did back in Cataclysm when they reduced Mortal Strike and other similar reduced healing effects to 10%. It's unnecessary.

Which they then had to increase or bandaid with Battle Fatigue (of course that could've also been a consequence of PvP Power, though I felt healers were too strong in general for Cata PvP anyways).I'm sensing a theme with these changes...

I'm about 10% sure of that (down from 25%).

Lol. Comment by Oziah They may as well have just removed the debuffs. Nobody is going to use them now. They're useless. Comment by Jkpman I'm sensing a theme with these changes...

You win all the internets sir\/maam! Comment by Althiea It doesn't seem to be mentioned in the list, but has anyone else noticed the change to 15min cooldown from 10min cooldown on Crystal of Insanity? Comment by Xinfinity It doesn't seem to be mentioned in the list, but has anyone else noticed the change to 15min cooldown from 10min cooldown on Crystal of Insanity?\r

I'm not entirely sure that's a new change, mine has been that way since I got it a few weeks ago.\r

No comment on the cast speed reduction changes, I've never found myself using any of those abilities on players since I don't PVP. Nice to see Aura of Enfeeblement hasn't had its effects on non-players altered, though.
