Once they're done with this campaign to get wings nerfed, sorc mains will go back to trying to get cloak nerfed and NB mains will go back to trying to get every single defense mechanism besides cloak nerfed. They just happened to find a common cause this time.
maybe cuz no one likes having 100% of their damage negated when that class also had the best self healing, CC, and very good single target pressure.
If wing's didn't negate everything I'm sure people would care less but it basically makes fighting a DK a waste of time as a ranged build. Like sorry there is just no damn point, not only can they out-heal you but they will also take little to no damage.

Can confirm there is absolutely no class in this game that gets tta 100% of their damage negated by wings
best self healing LMAO
1 heal debuff boi
Magblade's damage is all projectiles. If you play that style of build then you have Valkyn and Entropy but the damage from Entropy is negligible
Yes they currently have the best self healing. If you think they don't then imagine how everyone else feels (I am not including Shrooms and BoL when I say this since those are burst heals not only used for the user).
1 heal debuff hurts everyone boi
Wings were overperforming at release(reflecting everything for 4 seconds).
The devs re-evaluated them, and made them only reflect 4 projectiles.
The arguments being used today asking for wing nerfs are the same arguments that have been used 4 years ago.
Devs already considered those arguments, and deemed the 4-projectiles nerf sufficient.
You will need some new ones if you want to convince them wings need another nerf.
But that will be problematic, since there is nothing new about wings that has changed in the last 4 years which would warrant a re-evaluation of the ability. So, good luck.
How do you kill a flappy DK on a magsorc ?
Wings are so unbalanced that the ability is banned from all dueling tournement, the place (1v1) where wings is OP vs some matchup.
People are not asking to straight nerf the ability, but people want it to be less a hardcounter in 1v1 and more usefull in 1vX.
@biggda76 @TheYKcid
oh yeah, because light attacks do so much damage you need to heal/shield every light attacks reflected and dk will cc you at 30m+ range from wchich you can spam every your skill and streak away when dk will slowly walk to you
the only think I can agree and would be great to balance is as you @TheYKcid proposed to make wing work only at this 15m+ range so projectiles in melee could work again as this price to be close to melee range
but now what you try defend is that you are able to do all of this even in 40m range...how nonmobile melee class is supposed to deal with you when you can literally spam on them from 40m range while you also have streak to keep gap before this dk use gap close if even have it slotted to use
I mean if you want attack me and just stand while I spam light attacks then it's fine, and you know, you could like literally walk up to me since I don't have any mobility either (mNB)
As for how to deal with being damaged from ranged, ask you know, for example stamplar how go deal with it, so shield or heal. I mean you could even literally sprint wasting stam cause clench wouldn't cc you anyway and as soon as you get close enough to fossilize I dont see a problem
And my problem is mostly mNB so yea, melee ultimate makes me want to go melee so id you like being able to ignore wings in melee as for that idea
so ok, here I understand you as magnb as magnb is in much worse spot than sorc against dk with wing
and so here is great option from @TheYKcid to make wings reflect work only if you are casting prjectiles from longer range tha this melee range/10m/15m as how it could looks to make work your build properly if you are in this melee range eve forced by your own build while having most skills as projectiles even in your own build so not reflect is forcing you to go in melee range but just your build and reflect is just K.O. for someone like you
sorry if I flamed you before or something..but you know...99% people complaing loudly about wings are just magsorcs

What ? NB escapes with shadow image or cloak . Sorc get pulled by chains after 5 streaks and cry and die. Mage NB in worst spot ? Top most DPS in game is is worst spot ? A build with 7-8 spell damage is in worst spot ? A top tier PVP class is in worst spot ? Only class who play with 7 divines in PVP is in worst spot ?
No 1 in many dueling tournaments in 2018 is in worst spot ? And no even signed up for mage sorc in any of the dueling tournaments in second half of 2018. Pathetic noobs.
Please come with your mage sorc and duel me and win atleast in 1 of 100 fights.

The only change I'd like to see would be, as you said, for wings to not reflect within a certain minimum range. I even feel 8m would be reasonable—being the range of fossilize. It would ensure that any engagement the DK takes plays to their natural advantages.
yes @TheYKcid as I havn't seen many great option to change wings to get more counterplay against them for specific build without nerfing them to the groud your option is the best
as at all wing for dk are supposed to defent from pure range build, ok but at all I know it is very frustrating if you get finally into melee range with this dk your tools still are same, not change while now not dk is punised for being in range with you but you are punished for being in melee range and still have same tools
this is grear option to counter play as dk have no tools to fight in range..so he forces you to fight with him with melee but you cant if still have onlyy range setup...so here is going counter for price - you are going to be ine melee range with dk for getting acces to all your tool while sacrifacing your safe long gap from which he couldnt do anything to you but with reflect also you couldt do anything
so this is great middle as you both are going to meet in melee range and with it you both can finally fight eachother - this sounds as great balance option to something not balanced the best - tbh this dk reflect have great predispositions to be really super balanced in right way while many skills dont have that great options to be balanced for that much at once and that many different builds
Because the forums are full of Sorc and NB mains who just want to pew pew at range with no repercussions whatsoever.

I think I know whats really going on. For a long time DK's were a subpar open world pvp class and aside from a small population of grizzled veterans most DK's were potatoes and practically free kills for everyone. Thanks to a series of much needed buffs DK's have become competitive again so the population of competent DK's is growing, which has lead us to where we are now with people being angry that DK's aren't the guaranteed AP that they once were.
Dude that's so not true, I love playing my sDK and I love it strong but the fact that you can negate all damage, your skill being actually way stronger than sorc's negate ult in what it does (in 1v1 scenario obv) is just ridiculous and shouldn't be a thing

It does have counterplay. There are at least half of a dozen counterplays to wings available to each class.
There's even a set that does 10% dmg as oblivion dmg if you channel a full heavy lit or resto attack to a class that stacks heal. Want to give them more pain? Pair that set with torugs, infused and an oblivion glyph. More pain? Use skoria
All that dmg on a full channeled attack. If you want even more pain, slot crushing shock and use it in between full HAs. You can even put rune and wrath to make the mDK even more miserable.
And you know what's good about that set up? It works with every single class.

You do realise that all classes can reach that level of tankiness, right? Not just DK's. DK's are innately tanky, but they aren't nearly as tanky as you make them out to be unless they've specifically built for that. If they have, they sacrifice damage, which means they aren't a threat to you. Walk away, ignore them.
The only place these sort of builds are a problem would be the objective-based BG game modes. That isn't so much the tank's fault, rather it is the fault of the game modes for not taking tanky players into account.
If you want something to complain about, complain about stamden. Innately tanky thanks to the myriad of heals, one of the best burst combos in the game, and can build tanky without sacrificing too much damage.
I think I know whats really going on. For a long time DK's were a subpar open world pvp class and aside from a small population of grizzled veterans most DK's were potatoes and practically free kills for everyone.

wut?
So what about taking away all the shields in the game including shimmering? What about taking away s/b ulti?
And saying it negates ALL dmg? Are you for real? It negates around 20 skills in a game with more than 100

Just for your information. Mageblade is no1 in EU dueling tournament last time and DK comes only second. Stamplar third. No mage sorc even signed up in any of the tournaments recent 6 months as far I know. Mageblade can beat DK on high end. Mage Sorc has zero escape utility. Streak I will pull chain. You cannot cc me. Even if try to escape I take flight. I fossilize you ever now and then. Mageblade have many utilities to escape and reset the fight, which mage sorc doesn't. So, question is why mageblade even complaining when mageblade are strong contenders in many tournaments? Can't they L2P.
At it again with the same drivel aren't we? Do I need to remind you once more that you cannot keep hammering and pressuring an opponent while being in cloak? Cloak is OP, but it is in no way comparable to wings. Wings allow you to counter a ranged playstyle's damage completely, while being able to freely put pressure on the enemy with no risk of ever being counter attacked.Same with cloak.Because the forums are full of Sorc and NB mains who just want to pew pew at range with no repercussions whatsoever.
Once they're done with this campaign to get wings nerfed, sorc mains will go back to trying to get cloak nerfed and NB mains will go back to trying to get every single defense mechanism besides cloak nerfed. They just happened to find a common cause this time.
maybe cuz no one likes having 100% of their damage negated when that class also had the best self healing, CC, and very good single target pressure.
If wing's didn't negate everything I'm sure people would care less but it basically makes fighting a DK a waste of time as a ranged build. Like sorry there is just no damn point, not only can they out-heal you but they will also take little to no damage.
Maybe cuz no one likes having 100% (but, you know, actually 100% cause cloak works with all classes and more abilities, all but AoE as opposed to just a limited subsection of ranged attacks) vs a class that then becomes untargettable, invisible and ignores all dot damage whilst having the best sustain, good damage, and CC equally as good as DKs.

My main is a DK and been enjoying playing it for years. Why all of sudden are multiple posts to nerf wings when they were never an issue and have been nerfed multiple times already? Did a lot of players switch to ranged builds and can’t kill us as easily?

You're not going to kill a DK with force pulse and lightning/resto heavies. Not with their healing and damage output. If we're being honest then that's not really a counter.
At it again with the same drivel aren't we? Do I need to remind you once more that you cannot keep hammering and pressuring an opponent while being in cloak? Cloak is OP, but it is in no way comparable to wings. Wings allow you to counter a ranged playstyle's damage completely, while being able to freely put pressure on the enemy with no risk of ever being counter attacked.Same with cloak.Because the forums are full of Sorc and NB mains who just want to pew pew at range with no repercussions whatsoever.
Once they're done with this campaign to get wings nerfed, sorc mains will go back to trying to get cloak nerfed and NB mains will go back to trying to get every single defense mechanism besides cloak nerfed. They just happened to find a common cause this time.
maybe cuz no one likes having 100% of their damage negated when that class also had the best self healing, CC, and very good single target pressure.
If wing's didn't negate everything I'm sure people would care less but it basically makes fighting a DK a waste of time as a ranged build. Like sorry there is just no damn point, not only can they out-heal you but they will also take little to no damage.
Maybe cuz no one likes having 100% (but, you know, actually 100% cause cloak works with all classes and more abilities, all but AoE as opposed to just a limited subsection of ranged attacks) vs a class that then becomes untargettable, invisible and ignores all dot damage whilst having the best sustain, good damage, and CC equally as good as DKs.
I wish all the DK knuckleheads would learn to realize this. I'm sure you'd love it if all your dots were reflected at you and people wouls tell you to "just slot inhale bro". Please, just please stop.
Wow this is such a dejavu... Look, dude. You obviously miss my point. I'm not arguing which is more OP or which is more worth taking. I just wish people would stop comparing wings to cloak or saying "what about cloak" as a counter argument, because they are NOT comparable. They are powerful in different ways. Cloak being broken OP in general by letting the NB always have control and able to escape when losing while at the same time offering unrivaled dot suppresion. Wings being less multipurpose but extremely OP against magblades to the point where a duel is a complete meme. This is not the same thing, if you have any analytical capabilities.At it again with the same drivel aren't we?

At it again with the same drivel aren't we? Do I need to remind you you cannot reflect all melee attacks, dots, any ranged non projectile attacks, i.e. any beam attacks, any pet attacks, on target attacks like fury/curse, some projectiles like birb which are just excempt, projectiles with AoE components like valkyn. Basically everything from about 7.5 out of 10 classes.
But you can cloak them. And be invisible. And whilst AoEs break cloak you have to first find them, and they go through wings. And whilst the secondary explosions of POTL or curse will pop cloak, you can avoid them entirely, unlike wings.
Need I also mention it gives you a buff to counteroffense with the crit?
I'd trade something like wings which is very strong against a couple of classes for cloak which is very strong against nearly all of them and way more versatile for OW.
