Don’t know how good these are going to play out but I’ll take it.
Prediction for 2 weeks from now :
Hunter
Prediction:
if they don’t nerf the set bonus it’s probably better than the usual pathetic whack with the 3% buff bat.
could make kill command hit harder to help out killer cleave and ST damage. and bake beast cleave into multishot to free up more talent points - that would be nice.
You know what they could do?
Double the duration of beast cleave.
I hope it does something cuz ive noticed the higher ilvl i go the faster and faster other classes are outpacing me
Those are actually some pretty serious AoE buffs…I like it!
Except, that the raid is mostly single target.
as is PvP.
Good thing single-target boss encounters aren’t the only endgame content in this game? People have been complaining about BM’s AoE for ages (even though it’s not as bad as some think it is)…now we get a buff and you’re still finding a way to be negative about it
The sad thing is that BM is garbage even in ST currently, lmao.
it’s good in pvp which is all I care about so I hope they keep buffing it in PVE and it carries over. ST tho, don’t care about aoe bc you don’t take multi shot in pvp so beast cleave isn’t a thing
Why do I get the feeling that a week after these buffs go live they will be reverted.
Perhaps some of us don’t have the time in our lives to mindlessly do M+ over and over again. Stupidest system ever
Most likely, yes
Almost like Blizz has no clue what to do with BM, or any hunter spec in general. They just have no clue.
This is it for me, once again rather than say something like hey we are going to take a more in depth look at the hunter class overall(like they have with other classes recently) it’s yet another attempted ‘quick fix’ that they will inevitably nerf bat a few weeks down the road.
It’s ridiculous how much Blizzard hates hunters. Especially BM hunters… =( I’m apparently a real masochist and almost solely play BM hunter (and a little Paladin), but if we don’t get (and keep) a descent buff and at least are theoretically viable for M+ and/or raid, I guess that’s it for me with WoW after 16 years…
Last season that stupid disaster with the bow (if you didn’t have the luck to get it) and now we are just plain weak period. (.)
PLEASE Blizzard show BM hunters some love. I mean DHs were just a little weaker than usual (and were whining massively about it) and they got buffed heavily even before the m+ season started…
Sincerely,
A longterm customer who really thinks about retiring from WoW (this time for real!).
Go see Affy Lock if you want to see what real “no clue what to do with” looks like.
feels bad playing hunter now cause Blizz dont seem to actually care or really look how the class plays now. Do you guys think we will get the same attention Mages Rogues and Paladins are getting in 10.1.5? Feels like no =(
Beast cleave needs to be buffed back to 100%. This is not enough. The Kill Cleave buff is nice.
