Balance tuning dry patch - when will it end?

Hello,

PVP balance is not good atm. Between the AWC and MDI the devs don’t dare touch the game (apart from an emergency BM hunter nerf).

Please do something already - the integrity of the game is more important than the 0.001% player population participating in online tournaments. If we have to wait 1 more week for the MDI to be over too, even more people will unsub. Just do the right thing.

Thank you

Balancing all healers needs to be top prio imo.

Yeah this. Healers are way too punished currently. Playing a DPS is terrible. It’s non stop micros. 50+ CC’s in 6 rounds for example. Healers don’t press cleanse. DPS don’t press kick.

This season was done for weeks ago imo. Right in the title for everyone to see!

They won’t nerf disc / Pres damage but they will gladly nerf Rdruid damage in beta and left both of those healers alone.

Pretty obv.

Rdruid getting conservatively pre nerfed on PTR then BM making it live was wild.

I cancelled my sub. I’ve had enough of this garbage. I came back this expansion after I quit during Retpocalypse hoping it would be different but it’s the exact same. Never re-subbing again.

So true bestie. Healers should not be able to just stand there and arbitrarily tank several dps without having to worry about dying. Dampening’s existence is the very proof that healers need extensive balancing.

I feel like it can definitely use improvement but isn’t bad. Buff rsham and rdruid mana, hpriest healing, possible casted heal throughput buffs.

Buff dh, dk, and ww sustained damage.

Nerf bm, sp, feral damage.

And my bonus wishlist is to nerf moonkin dream burst damage and buff their survivability.
Miracle wish is to rework the druid class tree.

Surprisingly enough, balance generally is pretty solid rn. It’s hte outliers that make it seem not that way.

If they nerfed the 5 top specs/classes, the game is so much more fun because it’s actually relatively balanced outside of it.

Healer balance needs quite a bit of work atm.

Bold of you to say that after having dampened people to death with my fire mage

I’ve been saying it for years now, the devs simply can’t commit enough time to the game to make quick changes. They are spread way too thin between trying to balance 13 classes, 11 races and 39 specs as well as the whole of Retail, SoD, Classic, Plunderstorm and new expansions.

I honestly think they need to stop with all the classic stuff now, nothing has changed the base game (world wise) since Cata so MoP classic isn’t going to change anything, you can just go do MoP in retail and it would be the same experiance… It’s pointless wasting time and effort on this when the actual main game is in such a state.

Haha, I don’t think that’s what he meant, but I agree with you :smirk:

Bring other healers up to Disc/hpally/Pres and gut feral/(prune)ROGUES/demo/bm/fmage and all is right with the world :slight_smile:

Thses dont require balancing. Whoever takes SoD seriously is wasting their time. Retail, you know, the real game requires most of their balancing and they do balance passes but not for pvp
