Nethaera posted on all the class forums requesting feedback for all classes for 'future game updates'.

We?re looking for feedback on your class as we work on changes and adjustments for a future game update. While we may be making some specific class changes in 4.3, what we?re looking for in this thread is overall feeling on the class as a whole for more long term changes in the future.

Here is the kind of feedback that is NOT helpful in this particular thread:
  • Concerns that your current damage, healing or tanking is not competitive. While this kind of feedback is often useful, it also is the kind of thing that can change from patch to patch, and so it isn?t as useful for long term vision changes.

  • Concerns that your feedback is being ignored or that we don?t take these kind of posts seriously, or otherwise posting anything that is off-topic or not in the spirit of this thread?s intent.

  • Requests for responses to your suggestions or feedback. The purpose of this thread is to get information to us, not the reverse.

We hope you take these threads seriously, as we?re going to be reading them very carefully. We ask that you take time to think and formulate a useful and objective reply, as this feedback could be used to alter your class in substantial ways.

We won?t be replying here addressing your concerns. This is purely for us to read your answers to the below questions.

Please copy the below questions into your reply and answer each one.
  • What type of content do you focus on? [PvE/PvP/Both]
  • If PvE, what type of PvE? [Heroics/Raids/Other]
  • If PvP, what type of PvP? [Arenas, BGs, Rated BGs]
  • What are your biggest quality-of-life issues? For instance, no longer requiring ammo could be considered a quality-of-life improvement for hunters.
  • What makes playing your class more fun?
  • What makes playing your class less fun?
  • How do you feel about your ?rotation?? (Rotation is the accepted order in which abilities are used to maximum efficiency.)
  • What?s on your wish list for your class?
  • What spells do you use the least?

  • What type of content do you focus on? [PvE/PvP/Both]
    PVE
  • If PvE, what type of PvE? [Heroics/Raids/Other]
    5-mans and older raids
  • What are your biggest quality-of-life issues? For instance, no longer
    requiring ammo could be considered a quality-of-life improvement for
    hunters.

    Not having much choice in specs since 4.0 went live.
  • What makes playing your class more fun?
    Being able to split spec or try wacky stuff for niche situations.
  • What makes playing your class less fun?
    Being railroaded through quests and into cookie-cutter talent specs.
  • How do you feel about your ?rotation??
    If I wanted my pally to play like a rogue, I'd have rolled a frickin rogue.
  • What?s on your wish list for your class?
    Which one? I have at least one of each. Bring back 3.x talent trees would be a nice start.
  • What spells do you use the least?
    Anything that requires holy power.

Want to make all classes fun again in one single move? Revert talent trees to how they were during WotLK.

They can't do that because it would just be rehashing old stuff.

Ahhhhh ...

I would consider playing again if they managed to give players some choice back.

Unfortunately, this is probably just a way for them to decide what other things players find 'fun' that they can remove.


.........or if they got rid of Holy Power.

If I had a sub and could post on the forums, I would post the following under Paladin.

What type of content do you focus on? [PvE/PvP/Both]
PvE, very little PvP.

If PvE, what type of PvE? [Heroics/Raids/Other]
All of it, but Raids are suck right now.

If PvP, what type of PvP? [Arenas, BGs, Rated BGs]
TB, occasionally, that's it, PvP in this game is nothing more than who can stun the other guy longer.

What are your biggest quality-of-life issues? For instance, no longer requiring ammo could be considered a quality-of-life improvement for hunters.
The issue with this game currently have nothing to do with quality of life. Other than the fact that alternative resources mechanics are beyond bad. You want people to stay out of fire and don't stand in bad stuff and at the same time pay attention and manage alternative resources...the idea is counter-intuitive, to do both requires too much work and detracts from the rest of the game. Playing your class to it's full potential requires you to ignore the rest of the game. It becomes like playing string text games and graphics are pointless. Who has time to pay attention to how awesome the view is or how cool the graphics of a boss are when you do nothing but pay attention to your procs and your holy power?


What makes playing your class more fun?
Nothing, you have dumbed down all the classes to be nothing more than whack a mole because of the priority based rotations.

What makes playing your class less fun?
Proc based, priority rotations and alternative resource management, aka everything you did in Cata. Across the board every single class is less fun to play.

How do you feel about your ?rotation?? (Rotation is the accepted order in which abilities are used to maximum efficiency.) It is beyond terrible, priority based rotations are the worst change you made. Quoted from above: the issue with this game currently have nothing to do with quality of life. Other than the fact that alternative resources mechanics are beyond bad.

Who has time to pay attention to how awesome the view is or how cool the graphics of a boss are when you do nothing but pay attention to your procs and your holy power?


What?s on your wish list for your class?
Reversion to WotLK talent trees and play style.

What spells do you use the least?
All of them, I have currently given up playing my paladin as it is unrecognizable. There is so little fun in playing this gobbledegook of a class, I just gave up. Nothing is fun about Retribution at all. Even standing at the test dummy is too ridiculous and proc based. I can't imagine playing this thing in a heroic where I have other things to pay attention to...

I would like Blizzard to read this comment and see if they can figure out why this is bad. My guess is they don't know since he put it so matter of factly.

Yikes.
