A Pet Peeve of Mine

is when people don't understand priests' dispelling abilities.

It's as if when Burning Crusade was released and the alliance got shamans, that alliance players were just so impressed with the class that Purge overtook Dispel Magic as "the offensive dispeller".

Not only that, but at the same time, Mass Dispel was given to priests. The commotion over being able to dispel Divine Shield and Ice Block seemed to mask the fact that priests were able to dispel any magic (especially offensively) before they got Mass Dispel.

I hate when I'm in a group or raid and someone calls for a Mass Dispel for something that doesn't require it, something that the regular Dispel Magic would handle. Or when they don't understand that priests can dispel magic at all.... Get it right!
