Blizz desires that SoD Hunters /BlizzQuitForever

Dear Blizzard,

I have loved WoW (vanilla/classic) since release.

I have seen some super uncool moves in my favorite franchise Diablo (Diablo IV and Immortal).

But your latest nerf hammer utterly takes the cake.

I started my WoW journey 20 some years ago as a hunter and thought I should pick it up again in Seasons of Discovery/Disappointment.

I was excited and re-sub’d for one month to see if you really cared about our experience or if it was just a money grab.

The proposed changes to most classes were really exciting and actually changed the game and those class experiences (Rogue/Warlock tanks!?), even the hunter got some love (Lone Wolf doing 25% (still less than pet damage)).
-You nerfed that before I was even able to get it in game.

But Explosive Shot was pretty cool and provided a different experience.
-You nerfed the holy smoke out of that.

So, some pioneering player developed a new meta that was fun and different. For the first time ever BM hunter was raid competitive in Classic with the Scorpid!
-You nerfed that so fast many hunters in Seasons of DismalNerfedHunters have experiend no real change at all.

I can’t tell you have many times I have thought this SoD hunter feels and plays EXACTLY like any previous Classic WoW hunter.

So who at blizzard just hates hunters? Why do you want us to reclass or better yet un-subscribe?

For me you have a week. You can nerf us in a day of fun, you can fix it in a day, but I’ll give you a week out of my (stupid) love for the Blizzard of 20 years ago.

If you do not make hunters great again #MHGA in one week. I will leave wow forever and never buy another modern blizzard game again.

Let me be clear, give hunters some cool crap that makes our class have a new and more powerful play style. We have never been number one in DPS in WoW Classic. Maybe that would be ok (I’m looking at you Lone Wolf rune)? BM could be an important raid roll with competitive DPS (where’s my Scorpid pet crew? - hunt: EVERY HUNTER SINCE YOU NERFED EVERY RUNE FOR US).

You’re paying to play a beta test- you know that right?

To be fair, most actual releases are effectively beta tests with Blizzard anymore but this was announced essentially as a test.

Businesses encourage folks like you to leave, not cater to their demands. You really think they’ll believe you’ll only get this over the top this one time about this one thing?

wah wah wah mommy if you don’t give me that candy I’m going to hold my breath FOREVER wah wah wah

Well… Bye.

another cry baby from generation Z gone from the game

good riddance

The OP isn’t wrong.

Sniper Training is a passive and penalises any movement.

Lone wolf is a passive and got nerfed before the game even launched.

Cobra Strikes is a passive and isn’t worth it, same with Serpent Spread.

Aspect of the Lion is mandatory for Horde raids since its the only source of the Kings buff and is worse for the hunter over using Aspect of the Hawk…

Master Maskman is a passive and changes nothing with our gameplay. The mana reduction is utterly useless, we’ll still be oom shortly into the fight.

Beast Mastery is a passive and again changes nothing with gameplay.

Explosive shot got nerfed so hard you may as well just remove the rune at this point.

Chimera Shot has been nerfed and while its still somewhat decent all it does is replace aimed shot.

Kill Command adds one extra button click once a minute on fights that last 2-4minutes and is objectively worse than other runes for that slot.

Melee hunter is just straight up awful so Flanking and Carve may as well not exist.

In our most broken state we were still only slightly ahead of warriors yet only hunters got the nerf.

Ignoring DPS performance, why are most of our runes passive? The only difference between a 25 SoD hunter and a 60 Classic Era hunter is you replace aimed shot with chimera shot and we’re now allowed to serpent sting.

SoD Hunter has been a complete let down.

Interesting. Wrong but interesting.
Incidentally the developers actually agreed with me and reverted their unintended nerf.

Oh no my Scorpid pet isn’t doing more dmg than any pet from Vanilla ever, the sky is falling!

Explosive shot was extreme and deserved a nudge, but why change it completely to aoe? It was single target historically and should have stayed that way.

Your pet scorpid can still solo basically any class.
Idk why Hunters expect to be OP in every single way.

“OMG GAIS I CAN KITE YOU FOREVER WHILE MY PET KILLS YOU.
GAEM BROKEN BECAUSE I CAN’T SOLO FIVE PEOPLE AT ONCE!”
