As a sad enhancement shaman I am looking for a new main for 8.1. I try to follow the PTR fairly closely, but its hard sometimes to glean the required info from just reading the changes.
Main question is this with the changes made to MM a 25% buff to MM fillers and a reworked trueshot, is that enough to make MM competitive. Currently I have seen MM show in the bottom 2-3 specs in Uldir logs and I don't wanna go from one bad spec to another.
Gameplay when I play MM I fell its in a good spot core mechanics wise (Trueshot aside), so I'm looking at this as a numbers thing.
Blizz just nerfed AE on PTR, and left cleave being useless.
You may want to wait until 8.1 is ready to release to consider MM.
Or go Beast, if you like ranged.

It would be out of the fire and into the frying pan. Honestly, I don't see half of those MM changes on the PTR to go live. We would be lucky to get 1... Find something else IMO.
Trick shots could just reverse scale, the more targets hit my mutli shot the greater the % decrease to overall damage and it would be fine but hitting for 40% and capping at 5 targets is a bit sad. Thanks for the feedback.
As for BM I tried BM and while it is nice to get 100% free movement I just don't find the spec fun since all you do is command/buff your pets damage. Not a fan of the class fantasy there even if it is a strong spec.
Really didn't want to roll lock or mage but if hunter or shaman don't see much better tuning in the next 2-3 weeks before 8.1 hits that might be the direction.

going from enhance to MM would not really be an improvement sadly. MM is even less than a shell of what it used to be.
So u just wanna play flavour of the month from what I see

Tbh that's typically the state of mind of trash players.
They can't pull numbers on a lower tier dps according to logs so they go to warcraftlogs and find another class who performs much better on the overall logs.
They still wont parse well on any of their rerolls.

Or they want to increase their DPS to help push a mythic boss by 10-20% because thats how things are on the logs.

I'm sorry but even the lowest dps for logs can kill all mythic bosses.
Mythic raiding isnt tuned anywhere near needing everyone to purple parse.
Just the mind set of most people is they are "average" when in reality they dont understand they are actually very below average at the game. They assume they arent amazing but they are atleast an average player.
If you're grey and green parsing consistently you're a below average player....
Data does not lie.
Dont go from one trash spec to another. I'll keep plpaying MM but you shouldn't. Even come 8.1.
