8m Petrify is awful, please revert this change

xylena

At least it's still better than Stone Fist

Rohamad_Ali

Ya I don't like that they put it in the same range as talons , it should have a little range .

It is ineed terrible. Alongside the frags nerf the worst changes on an otherwise fine patch.

Yarp.

I love how they essentially took petrify (previously the best CC in the game), and gave it to the Sorcs who weren't even asking for that in the first place.

scipionumatia

theyre probably thinking sorcs are ranged and therefore need a ranged CC. DK are melee fighters and therefore need to choose between an unreliable ranged CC or a reliable 8m stun. in this scenario they completely ignored the possibility of build diversity.
Ive pondered why this change was necessary for more time than Id like to admit.

They also forgot that it was really the only worthwhile/functioning counter to range. Chains, wings and stonefist being poo.

As if sorcs need more CC, but whatever. Their moving in the right direction...again.

Petrify should be 15m minimum. How are mag dk's supposed to fight any class with major expedition in pvp?

Frag's just needs to put enemies hit off balance. Without it frags would be the ONLY class main dps ability that doesn't have some sort of cc or extra quality to it. Honestly should give the garbage other morph off balance as well to all enemies hit but still won't see anyone worthwhile run it.

What?

They replaced a ranged disorient with a ranged stun, and took the ranged stun away from frags...

Before patch, sorcs had a ranged stun AND disorient. After patch - ranged stun only.. Result? Sorcs have more CC???
No wonder we see so many nerf-sorc threads..

Old habits die hard. Even more so when they lack basic understanding. People already try to sell these changes as a buff to sorcs. I guess you could make frags an uninterruptable cast time skill without proc and they would still argue it's a buff.

Nemeliom

Terrible idea yo make it an 8m stun. DKs al way a had catch up problems. Now they are screwed.

RandomName123

The issue is that Wrobel doesn't play DK.

getemshauna

I don't play DK and I hate dueling DKies, but that range is laughable indeed...

Joy_Division

One of numerous awful changes this patch.

ZoS probably thinks since Shifting Standard is going to be the new meta, a nerf was needed

Crusades

I agree with OP
