Test Realm Patch Notes: 2.4.3

[Concillian]

I'm not missing the point. It only affects melee classes with purge, i.e. only Enhancement shamans. Retribution paladins can still get out of it with BoF and Cleanse, so why mention them?

Again, lack of PvP knowledge comes through. Also effects arena comps with dispels, which is almost all 5v5 combination and about half to 2/3rds of popular 3v3 combinations (most notably RMP and Druid / Warrior / Enhance).

The undispellable armor change is HUGE for mages in the 3v3 bracket. RMP is THE nut to crack in 3v3. Tournament winners are generally either RMP or direrct counters to RMP (druid / rogue / rogue was a recent tournament winner, druid / warrior / enhance also). But this will give a significant amount of strength to RMP, an already very strong combo with the amount of extra opportunities for reduced DPS on the mage (often 1st focus target, but not always) and especially the increased pressure on the opponents due to additional damage done by ice lance and/or additional opportunity for shatter.

And it doesn't just affect enhancement shaman, it's is MUCH further reaching than that. As I said, it causes major re-writes to the basic strategies for a majority of high ranked 3v3 and 5v5 team compositions.

The change is HUGE for arena PvP combat. To argue otherwise is just a demonstration of ignorance. Just admit that you're clueless about PvP aside from basic "theory-duels" and move on.
