Fiery Grip.

    • If the target of Fiery Grip is unable to be pulled to you for any reason, you will now be pulled to the target.

I'm wondering is this supposed to be a buff or a nerf?

I'm wondering because I regularly use Fiery Grip to grab an over extended enemy or to separate my opponents from their allies... Since everyone is blocking almost all the time though, very often I cannot pull them.

Does this mean I would be pulled into groups of opponents every time a person blocked this?

    Looks like this will be the case.

    It is still a gap closer. Usually when I pull one out of a group it aggros the rest
    anyway, just get that head start on the first one pulled.
    But then talons comes to the rescue!

    I'm scratching my head a bit over this change....
    As a DK caster I plan to keep using it for PVE . I'll have to be smart with my pulls. Hope I don't chain a boss B)

    its the end of sorcs in pvp......since everyone plays DK mainly in cyro, this just means shield charge and fiery grip will dominate us even further. Especially since one cast of fiery grip grants CC immunity, now you can ignore the CC immunity and be brought to the person who was immune to begin with.

    Honestly, this change is making me hot. A magic-based gap closer! Add the new inhale and talons and engulfing flames. Pop magma shell. Yeah, DKs will still wreck entire groups. Oh yeah, and I'll block cast all that ***.

    But... But... But...

    There is a huge difference in pulling an enemy to me, and being pulled to an enemy!

    Who is going to use this as a gap closer especially when we cannot control the gap closing? Many of us run a charge on our bars in addition to a pull because they have completely different functions.

    When I use pull it is to get a person away from their allies, and generally to my allies. There is a reason I didn't use a charge... Because it would be suicide!

    But with a block suddenly they pull me!?!?!?

    This is obviously meant to make DK even more frightening in 1v1.
    Auri-El is my lord,
    Trinimac is my shield,
    Magnus is my mind.

    just means permablockers get fed more if a DK tries to pull them lol ZoS really has no clue what they are doing. They buffed the CRAP out of DKs lol

    Well the ability was pretty much useless in a world where everyone is permanently blocking. Good or not, at least now it will have some effect :)

    Wait until people start abusing the mechanic in PvP like they did before. Then they can nerf it yet again and replace it with an ability that throws flaming Bouquets of flowers at people instead
    That which we obtain to cheap we esteem to lightly, it is dearness only that gives everything its value.
