I keep hearing nerfs are coming to bring demon hunters down a notch for next expac, but no one is being specific.

Yes they’re being nerfed into nothingness

But at the same time no they are still going to wipe the floor with everyone like they should

Yeah, Havoc’s getting whacked (about time).

I main Vengeance so I’m just like “meh.”

They’re getting nerfed yes but bad players will still lose to them. Therefore GD will continue the complaining as usual.

I have yet to meet a DH I couldn’t beat. That said I can understand casters hating them. Though casters get bent over by melee pretty hard in this expansion in general.

Unless you’re a warlock, or a fire mage that people stand around like an idiot and let you get off GPyros (another thing going away)

Thank god.

So sick of Blizzard releasing “Hero Classes” and having them be OP AF.

Here’s your (you)

Yeah, they will.

The question is, why will bad players still lose to them?

DH is an incredibly simple and easy class to play, has the best mobility in the game, and the best self healing in the game.

The easiest class in the game (AKA the class with the lowest skill floor) should also be the weakest class in terms of power. If the easiest class is also the most powerful class you get what you got in BFA. A clown fiesta parade of purple retards double jumping and fel rushing to glory.

I don’t blame you for not staying up to date on the beta changes. There’s a lot.

Havoc DH have had their leech reduced, Blur nerfed, Blade Dance no longer dodgtes, Demonic nerfed, etc.

Wowhead, as always, has updated information.

They should remove chaos brand. Still going to be the obligatory havoc just to be there to buff the casters in what is shaping up to feel like a caster-friendly expansion.

I will still gank you in world pvp, t-bag after I win, then fel rush away from your reinforcements turbo nerd.

Think meme beam is getting nerfed into the ground.

Also heard they are getting a more complicated play style.

If they could also tone down the “Lets cover up everyone’s screen with blurry demon bat wing animations” They might not be so bad moving forward.

Shhh! No one mention multiplicative
DK auras.

DKs were stupid AF in WoTLK. You don’t need to convince me.

It was basically the same problem.

Incredibly simplistic to play, and incredibly powerful.

“OH COOL I GOT TRINKET ICY TOUCH 8 TIMES U DIE”

I remember literally spamming like 30 yard range icy touch or whatever into empower rune weapon into more icy touch spam and people just fell over. It was stupid and deserved to be nerfed.

The play style hasn’t changed at all. Everyone will continue running demonic and first blood blade dance. Momentum is bad and will not see any play.
