Wow... That's a lot of angry clothies...
IMO, pallies are finally getting what Blizz always promised, viability. We're useful now. Our weakness to kiting has been adjusted, we have a decent CC spell, and our damage isn't based on 6 different stats.
It doesn't look that OP at all. Sure our DPS is high, but pallies can still be beat if you know how to do it. Our hand of freedom and protection has a pretty nasty CDs, so does our bubble, we have no resistance to spells, we have 2 ranged attacks. one only usable under 35% hp and one with a 10yd range (LOL). there are so many weaknesses to our design that you cannot possibly complain about us. Just because we are actually a threat from melee range now, doesn't make us OP. Any of these whiners ever heard of strategy? You need one to beat any skilled player and now you need one for a ret pally.
Balance is a bitch, aint it?

Its just a matter of fear of change, certin classes (Mage/Hunter) could easily kite us and, IF we managed to get close, we didn't prove to be a threat. Now that we will, they have to adjust their playstyle.

Stop damaging Seals from proccing off Divine Storm and Crusader Strike and our "LOLWTF BRUSTS?" will be fixed. Right now self buffed I can dish out:
2x Auto Attack ~1200 hit each
1x Crusader Strike ~1350 hit
1x Divine Storm ~1500 hit
1x Judgement of the Martyr ~1000 hit
4x Seal of the Martyr ~500 hit each
Thats 7850 damage in 4.5 seconds., without any crits. 1655 DPS self buffed.
Now add the fact that all these attacks have a 33% chance to crit for double damage. (Or +33% damage - I'm leaving out the talents for simplicity).
10440.5 or 2320 DPS burst.
Now if they removed Seal of the Martyr procs on Crusader Strike and Divine Storm:
Lose 2x 665 damage.
9110.5 damage, in 4.5 seconds, or 2024.56 DPS.
This change alone causes a healthy reduction to our burst, which be honest is overpowered, without breaking us again. By about 1200 burst damage in S3/4 gear.
If someone could please post this in one of the many "NERF RET" threads I'd be much <3 since while I can log the PTR I can't use the forums :(
