Lets be real they hate em and don’t them to be viable. Hasnt seen a blizzcon final since like 2011 correct me if I’m wrong. Blizzard hates em had one viable spec that had subpar performance in tournaments guess that warrents a nerf.

they just got buffed tho
PvE buff.
PvP neutral hotfix. Possible slight nerf to 3s, slight buff to 2s.
However we wont see 2s until they fix death strike.

no its a buff for pvp too, 5% damage to all abilities means more damage vs. the damage lost to 5% nerf to chill streak
It’s PvP neutral because nerfing our only kill potential ability cancels out the 5% more damage on everything else.

i agree, nerf chill streak
But law of averages comes into play. It’s much greater than just 5%

5 percent is more than neutral. Neutral would be a trade-off. Calling this a neutral situation is very dumb.
idk what the law of averages is but if everything got buffed by 5%, the average is 5%? In fact, wouldn’t nerfing 1 of those 25 abilities by 5% mean we, on average, got an overall buff <5%?

Those abilities have a ton of synchronization and symbiosis allowing the law of averages to be multiplicative eg a MASSIVE buff

He’s right
Math checks out
Blizzard hates all of us bro
prob the best shaman poser ive ever seen
Frost DK is still better than most specs.
The only specs that are better are Fire Mage, Arms Warrior, Holy/Ret Pally, and WW. They directly counter casters so hard in this meta.
If my average dps in 3s was 3k (ease of example) a 5% buff would bring me to an average of 3150 not 6450.
5% aura is exactly that, 5% not 115%. Jesus kids are dumb.
The CS nerf is more than 10% too, pre need one tick was hitting 3.5k, on 10 bounces I’d see 35k every single time. Now listened its 2.5k per bounce or 25k for 10 hits. So it actually looks like a 30% nerf. Golf clap for the dev team pvp is officially fixed.

Only if you don’t understand that different abilities do different amounts of damage and hold different amounts of weight for a plethora of reasons.
A very young, immature, incomplete grasp of logic. You’ll get there someday tho.
