If that’s how the community wants to play the game then so be it.

Blizz can’t control the meta.

Constantly spreading this info only makes it worse. You can choose who you play with.

I’ve met a good bit of people who have put together a guild dedicated to letting players raid in the spec they want. Watching these raid bosses get downed so easily should be kind of uplifting to those who play subpar specs. If you don’t want to play the meta, don’t

AoE damage in vanilla was tempered by weak AoE threat from tanks. Blizzard decided to stick with the spirit of vanilla and massively buff AoE threat from tanks.

Yes, they most certainly can.

Start your own group. I’m sure the other non AoE classes would appreciate a group just for them.

Why would I subject my group to 6 hour BRD clears?

Then don’t.

AOE is strong but it’s not the be all and end all of dungeoning.

A DPS spamming AoE = 2-3 single target DPS, e.g. an entire party of DPS.

Groups can’t be blamed for rolling all AoE. It’s absurdly strong.

What?, they buffed AoE threat of tanks to further increase the problem?

What happened to #NOCHANGES?

If what you say is true then that is the problem, they changed something that is making this BS happen.

In retail… unless they are referring to the demo shout bug, which is exactly that… a bug.

Not true you are thinking of the 10% pop

A new day, a new complaint.

It’s real. There are alot of poor rogues spamming lfg in sm because they couldn’t get invited into groups.

Depends it’s slow as well. Mana up and melee need no mana.

Is this true? I can’t imagine that they would be that stupid to do something so game altering to what is supposed to be “Classic.”

“Here, we’re going to give you back classic coke, but it’s going to be mixed with new coke. hope you like it aholes!”

Rogues always do. Reason marketing. I said that earlier. Cough lock-picking.

Pretty sure private servers just had the threat amount for shout wrong.

All this rush rush aoe dungeon crud is a very very BFA personality type. it simply did not exist on private servers or original vanilla. I have no doubt it will subside soon enough. Until than put your own groups together and try to get what you can done and move on. As for your BFA guys spreading this cancerous play-style, Honestly, Why are you even here? Please meditate on this question.
