I think we don’t actually know what the best builds are. Regardless of what was only tested in 9 days. Wouldn’t stress what others play either - that’s Blizz’s job. Play what you want.
Considering there is no ladder either - who cares?

From a efficiency perspective, barb in general is the way. 10% base DR and massive end game damage yeah the choice is clear.

literally can’t think of a reason to play anything else other than “fun” but “fun” is killing efficiently soo…yea probably half or more

happy druid made it to S tier, people clowned on it hard…17 damage.

that’s a bad druid meme “17 damage” … if it ever was true in the first place … it certainly wasn’t end-game.

I mean a set of gloves that lets you stack damage infinitely while kiting mobs, with perma shuts up to not get one shot, sounds pretty good

Not me - I’m going Hammer Of The Ancients!

Still better than half the game being afknecros or netflixnecros.

They can take away the 10% DR. The path to endgame should be steeper.

Half of the game are going to be meta chasers who will switch according to balance changes. True barbs are going to play regardless of buffs and nerfs. This is nothing new.

Who’d have thought that Barb would SHINE!?!

4 Weapon slots(2x 2 handers @ 100% aspect power) = 4 aspects.
Mobile DPS with No-Clip/Collision , no targeting or aiming required.
DOT application while performing the above.
Excellent mobility.
Amazing buff/debuff
Top Tier resource management.

I can’t even imagine balancing this.
IF Blizz does anything - expect disappointment after the fact.

Enjoy it while you can.
Remember: Fun is bad.

Druid build is probably stronger tbh.
Barb may do more damage but is super squishy compared to druid.
Necro can do just as good if not better damage, both aoe and single target, and has pretty good survivability.

The game seems to be fairly well balanced, so we can expect people to play what they want.

The only people copying builds and trying to “top the leaderboard” when they don’t even exist are the people that won’t continue playing out of boredom because they didn’t have to do any thinking for themselves.

It’s funny that everyone now is a WW barb because of that video. There’s no other video with other classes clearing dungeons so people assume Barb is BiS lol

I bet you there will be more druids tho. The casuals absolutely love druid.

It’s not an assumption, and this was known before the review beta. The only question was whether the uniques would get nerfed or not – which seemed like they obviously would. But they have not been so WW has remained king.

Mildly annoying if you were already planning to do WW Barb before all the hoopla.

im going pulverize druid i think. the grizzly form was already high uptime and they just gave it 2 more seconds so it should be ezpz to keep up :slight_smile:

barb will be too popular and get nerfed left and right. drood sounds safer.

barb looked squishy as hell even fully geared in those endgame dungeons anyways. rob almost died a couple times in that vidya. it looks like if your shout isnt up youre very fragile.
