No explanation.
Not even strongest dps class.
Nothing close on par for specs doing much stronger.
A single line that probably moves enhance from top 5 to bottom 5.

Elemental blast needed a nerf but not the entire spec

Can’t have enhance step on other class fantasies of being fun and effective… can’t have a leg up on warriors and rogues in pvp.
To be fair, I was having the most fun in a long time on my enhance. Saw enhance representation so I knew a hard nerf was coming.

I think they needed to have disabled all conduits and leggos then do some tweaks. Enhance maelstrom conduits just stack easy too much right now….

On beta I can’t spend my maelstrom fast enough. But the only thing that felt overpowered was my elemental blasts critting for 170-200k with wolves up

For pre patch yes. For DF no so hopefully its pre patch only

idk they are obviously so braindead and incompetent at balance that instead of nerfing the obviously OP ele blast build, they just say ehh 25% across the board, i have little hope

That is actually insane. In what universe was enhance overperforming by TWENTY FIVE percent?

What explaination you need lol. They need damage because damage on enh was ridiculously OP and people sere getting 2-3 shot left and right .
I won’t be surprised if even that isn’t enough but we will see tomorrow.

If you think a 25% nerf is needed across the board for one ability that was overperforming you are braindead.

At least Enhance still feels Fluid and fun. Not saying this out of spite, genuinely still like how Enhance feels to play even if the damage is nerfed.

The spec was insane the fact you cant see it makes you brain dead and i play boomkin who has been nerfed by 30-40% more then once and still doing fine dps wise suck it up

yet you don’t have any reasonable argument to why they should be nerfed ACROSS the board for 25% less damage.

Oh the fact that your one shotting people in pvp and when i do dungeons in beta/retail enhance is always doing like 120k dps 50-60k more tgen the other classes they are insane they change mealstrom spells to be way to strong bets i can cast free 150k lightening bolts etc 300k ele blasts give me a break
the only one shots that have been happening are in beta and yeah everyone agrees that needs to be nerfed not ALL damage. You watched one youtube vid and see big numbers and think that justifies the bs that this nerf is. You have shown that you have zero common sense and continue to spout the same nonsense without an actual argument. Cya

I play in the beta i see it everytime i do m+ and raids at level 70 with tier sets etc and again i play boomkin which got multiple 30-40% nerfs so cry me a river over your ONE 25% nerf to a spec that was broken playing monk too ww was broken and got a massive nerf maybe you just meta chase cause your bad at the game and can only do damage on broken op chars and when they get tuned you cry that the class is dead

You’ve gotta be exagerrating those numbers. I HIGHLY doubt that enhancement was doing 120k DPS, especially when we look at warcraft logs their logs dont match the numbers you’re talking about.
Okay cool, this nerf is hitting live in the morning during downtime. If we look at mythic Skolex on warcraft log, sorting by max damage (I even screenshotted it for you: https://imgur.com/a/sqBCDnJ)
You see that the top DPS is affliction warlock at 70k DPS. Enhancement is 8th on the board with a max damage of 45k. Heres a link to the stats as well, https://www.warcraftlogs.com/zone/statistics/29#boss=2542. Enhancement on one of the better single target fits in the Sepulcher raid that is essentially a tank n spank is only BARELY in the top 10.
Rather than nerfing Enhancements entire kit they should have looked at the offending spell and fixed that instead. This is a sledgehammer approach and it doesn’t feel good.

Are you trying yo compare. A warlock in pre patch 100% bet that affliction lock is using soul flame and that fated piwer with all the adds that simple padding and dies carry into dragon flight blame bluzzard fir the poor class design and yes i group with plenty of shamans/ww that break 100k easy i do 40-50k on my boomkin
Posting on your shaman doesn’t make this ok. Don’t care what anyone says 25% aura nerf on any class is overkill. Enhance isn’t even top damage Rogue, Monk is and Rogue just got buffs. 25% nerf is lazy tuning.
