10.1 Keystone Hero: The Meme

Going to pug KSH the 3 worst specs next season. One each of DPS, Tank, Heals. Pugs only.

As this is a pug event, I’ll let the community decide which are the worse of these.

My thinking is:
-DPS: Survival
-Tank: Guardian
-Healer: Mistweaver

Chime in with your worst-of list and I’ll start leveling them up next week.

Speaking from experience, every spec is the worst spec if you’re a total scrub.

Guardian and MW are getting big buffs. You’ll have to wait a few weeks to see how things play out to truly see what’s bottom of the barrel

I’m in agreement with your list :smiley:

Those “big buffs” looked minor to me, compared with all the issues with the talent trees.

Any class/spec can pug KSH without much issue. Just gonna have to run your own key on your Surv Hunter.

They actually do a decent amount of damooj and having a Hunter with a proper kick is pretty neat.

Big enough to shift them off the bottom I’m betting

survival’s worst attribute is that people don’t appreciate it for what it is: a skirmishing build that lets you get in and out of combat quickly and has plenty of reach.

It’s derpy and unlikely to top the charts but it’s fun on the bun.

But you’ve been posting since the start of Dragonflight that there was absolutely nothing wrong with guardian, and they were the equal of every tank out there.

idk i pugged guardian to 2800 IO and it was amazing. Mistweaver is also alright.

Both specs are just not as good as the other tanks/healers but in the end keys really depend on doing mechanics, dps numbers, and tanks knowing the path.

Survival is your best bet for memeing

I genuinely laughed out loud. Well constructed joke. lol /slowclap

Wrong. I’ve been saying they’re not as bad as everyone makes them out to be while always advocating for buffs. There’s a difference.

And it doesn’t matter where you land on the power rankings, changes can affect those rankings at any time.

Look at Prot Paladin becoming the #1 tank when it was Warriors for so long. And they’re projected to be #1 going into season 2.

I’m thinking we’ll see Druids move up 2-3 notches in season 2. Being the lowest ranked in the rankings doesn’t stop something from being fine

It’s a list. There’s gotta be a first and there’s gotta be a last. OP is just wanting to run with the bottom of the lists. All there is to it.

And with the changes, I don’t think it’ll be MW or Guardian holding down those spots.

All there is to it

already pugged KSH on my SV hunter this season, so ill just do it again in S2. This is my main afterall.

My bear is 3k IO. The memes are exaggerated. I don’t know OPs skills level but Bear is completely fine at lower levels of play now. It’s issue is that it doesn’t have good active magic DR but nothing hits hard enough that you can’t live it with stuff like Barkskin + ROTS at that level.

They will be good because of revivals mass dispell ability + they can get rid of disease.

I think Druid will honestly be awful next season

Bear? No shot.

To be fair I think I’d rather have a bear than a VDH in a random 20 weekly

I’ve been doing this since the start of Shadowlands. Sin Rogue has been a meme for so long.

Affliction might be worse, in pug keys. They hyper specialize for either AoE or ST, so if the tank isn’t doing big pulls, then neither setup does a whole lot.

You’ll get groups for keys pretty easily as any tank or heal spec.

As for survival, you’ll get invited by people assuming you are MM.
