There’s hyperbole and then there’s HYPERBOLE. This thread is the latter.
What does that even mean lmao
All classes and specs can reasonably complete all content. If that’s not balance, then what is?
You’re strawmanning this.
Does Destro have to “just push their own keys” or “just wait till friends log on”?
No, they don’t.
Feral and Destro pay the same $$ every month but have DRASTICALLY different in-game experiences…all thanks to poor balancing by the developers.
I cant even believe you said that.
LMFAOOOOO
I need a moment.
Players being braindead meta slaves has nothing to do with balance. The classes can complete the content no issues.
Balance is fine. The community is the problem for thinking that anything that isn’t “meta” is wrong. The devs can’t fix that chief.
It’s okay, take your time to jump start those brain cells.
I must have missed the part of the expansion where Feral couldn’t push their own key. The first piece of advice given to anyone asking how to increase their score is to push their own keys. Own the “narrative” of the run and you’ll be fine.
You CAN eat soup with a fork, but why would you when spoons exist?
Lock and hunter dps is nuts, my 265 hunter has a 19 key this week. I could never do that on my warrior. Maybe dk this season but only because the set bonus.
Funny thing is, with good pulls I could easily time that 19 on my hunter too.
Because that’s not a comparable argument.
It’s like why cook a meal when Gordon Ramsey can do it better? Because it’s still fun for you and you can still make a delicious meal.
You don’t have to be meta to play the game. It may help because the community might be more willing to invite you, but from a balance perspective, every class is adequate.
You’re blaming the devs for a problem that the community has.
Of course anyone CAN run their own key.
Due to poor balancing, many specs MUST run their own key.
That’s still a community perception issue. Even if the gap was smaller, there would still be tier lists and the “meta”.
My guy just get some friends
MDI has been the same class comp vs the same class comp every time I look at it.
Which is why I stopped. Boooooring.
Put in a ban system, let teams ban 3 specs each. Then we’d have a race worth watching.
Even better, you cannot use the spec more than once for the tournament. That’d be cool
The community built this meta on the back of poor Blizzard balance.
When some specs do THIRTY PERCENT more DPS than others, the community turns the “meta” into the
META!!!.
I love both these ideas.
Probably. I know the estimates were mid-August back when everyone thought Dragonflight was going to be out in March or April, but now? They could announce it today for all we know.
This guy is trolling hard.
Proper balance is when all specs, top to bottom, are within 5% of each other. That is balance. Anything else is just garbo.
They only buff their melee damage which isn’t much outside of kill command, raptor strike and autos.
Warrior battle shout would benefit the surv hunter more for being attack power. (Attack power increases agility users and strength where intellect is only for casters)
Then havoc dh buffs the magic portion of survs damage, aka their bombs.
Not sure what you were getting at with your post but that’s just some general info I’ve gathered to try and persuade people to take me lol. But dhs also buff lock so they beat out warrior for that and then monk does more damage and way more utility than warrior so they beat warrior for that too
The only people that build the meta are the ones that are actually doing cutting edge content. That’s the only place where having the best of the best actually matters.
Again, all classes, specs, and covenants can do effectively all content.
You can blame the meta all you want, but literally every single spec has done a +25. Keep in mind that that’s way higher than the average player will ever come close to.
For the vast majority of players, balance is not the reason you can not complete content.
