I haven't found the new shield yet on PTR and not super motivated to find it.
so are the new Roland set and bracers and what not just not worth going after? If I've got a semi decent Condemn set is it better just to stick with that?
But some of us are greedy and want to use both, combining Sweep Attack for AoE and Shield Bash for single target by abusing piro mirella and Golden Flense to get the best of both worlds.
Combine that with a new (non shield) armor that increases the damage of Sweep attack and you're golden.
Cool, I think I'll probably end up playing a seasonal Sader again, because I can never get interested in the other classes :p.
Anyone think a Holy Damage Shieldsader could work in 2.2?
Awesome, that's what I want to hear. It seem Blizz wants me to play Roland's, I've had three parts drop over the past couple of days :p.
Do we know if the Bracers are going to be seasonal or what? Also do you think Ashbringer could make a decent weapon for this spec?

That's fair enough Geege...

Sadly that's not an option
Kind of annoyed they put this on a shield... Now you have to pick between Shield Bash and Sweep attack for your Rolands build...
Don't worry, IK is clearly going to be next for the nerfbat. It's FAR too good.
Urg, just as I feared :'(. blizz saw all the Billion+ crit and gutted it all...
Guess I'm sticking with Condemn, since I already have all the gear and just need to upgrade to Ancient.
So how is the set now after the Bracer nerfs? Damage and resource return both cut in half, still worth it?
So are we now only getting 2bil crits instead of 4 bil
They don't need to buff Condemn/Pony builds. They're both still good just not AS good as Rolands.
People will ALWAYS math out which is the most effcient build, then certain people will play that and only that because it's the best...
The VAST majority of players will carry on playing whatever they want.
I would be very much okay with that Raz.
They need to try and balance 1h and 2h (with the respective talents) to make them roughly equal. Not sure how that would work though...
Kinda wish they'd add a really strong 1h flail... Maybe even bake the current shield bash damage passive into a Mace instead of the current bracers...
I'm just getting bored of Heavenly Strength being all but mandatory for all builds.
What build is everyone thinking about running once the patch goes live?
I mean obviously Shield Bash with Cross/Pound, but what other skills?
Also, reckon a holy damage stacking build with Shatter Shield, Mirinae and Ashbringer would work
Hmmm... So what weapon will everyone be using with this build?
And do you think Punish will be worth using, for the boosted damage on Shield Slam?
