That’s some crazy interaction with my spec and BM.
Dang my m+ buddy would have loved that had he not been on his healer over his BM main Tuesday night with me. Glad that BM is still looking strong ATM though.
They seemed to have been low for a while

I’m not sure what you’re trying to achieve by this post…
My post had no malicious intent behind it.
I was just stating a fact that after a 30% nerf its STILL pumping crazy numbers…
Not really.
Augvoker needs abilities to be calculated using “regular formula” to parse properly.
Pet abilities were calculated using “weird formula for pets” instead. Blizz changed it to “regular formula” but forgot that “weird formula for pets” also included a ~32.5% multiplier, so then “regular formula” became “regular formula + ~32.5%”.
This is just removing the extra. Almost nothing to do with Augvokers specifically, and everything to do with how damage is parsed in the combat log.
My mistake. The overall tone of the thread is “BM is ezmode and shouldn’t be allowed to be good”, so when I see “Quite crazy” referring to BM in the top 3, I draw some conclusions.

Understandable!
I was just replying to the guy who said they got “yoinked”.
BM is still very strong and more than capable at the moment.
Im glad you guys are having you’re moment, its fun to see!

As was I, explaining that the “yoink” wasn’t a “yoink” at all, it was a “whoops we accidentally buffed this spec by 32.5% the first week of the raid and we need to fix this asap before it ruins RWF completely”.

It was a bug with Aug, believe we were stealing some of their damage. It was fixed yesterday.
If you paid attention, the hot fix was made after my post. BM’s numbers are still high, DH too.
The Augvoker attribution hotfix was made early on November 15. That was when BM was accidentally buffed.
The “nerf” happened later on November 15, maybe shortly after midnight November 16. The OP of this thread is from November 15. Since there aren’t timestamps, I assume that it was between the hotfixes.
Also, you aren’t the OP, so not sure why you are calling me out.
I actually am, for some reason the forum is using different characters for me on PC or on the phone. There is another 25% nerf after my post.
Look at logs from November 14.
Now look at logs from November 16.
If you can show me a 25% delta between them, I’d love to see that.
You can just scroll up on this post, check out the 25% hotfix time stamp, BM needs a bigger nerf than 25% for sure.
DH needs a nerf.
I am seeing some Heroic progression groups are stacking BM hunters, they need more nerf, my Larodar kill last night had like 4-5 BMs, they can do very high dps with very few buttons from far away, I checked their pets were doing 65%+ of their dmg, these pets also dont take any aoe dmg and never dies in raid. Broken
Not broken. Pets were always either not moving correctly or taking too much damage or just instantly dying. So blizzard removed them from the equation on a lot of stuff. It’s like how lock pets don’t take damage unless they have direct threat.
Same story.
Again, not broken.

With his defeatist attitude I can see why.
Honestly I can’t take anyone seriously when they state bm is baby mode. Just because THEY play it babymode, doesn’t make it babymode xD

So I press a button send in my pet, press 2 of my personal abilities when they are off CD, press 2 other abilities to command pets to enrage and bite, topping dps with the above, is NOT broken? While others are either too far away from the boss due to ground aoe effects, calculating combo points, timing CDs, buffing teammates, have to stop mid cast due to mechanics etc etc dont deserve to be high dmg? YOU ARE NOT BROKEN???
bad players always cry… metas just proof of it.

But have you played frost mage? Shadowpriest?
Oh fury war? Outlaw rogue? Frost dk?
The list literally goes on. Every single dps spec in-game can be broken down to 1-3 buff abilities and 2-4 mash buttons.
However, you can build and play however you want which allows for more intricacies of the spec.
So just because you THINK that’s how it’s played, doesn’t mean that’s endgame rotation.
Also who is calculating combo points? I play outlaw/mut rogue. It’s not that big brain, I promise. Big brain is watching roll the bones if anything.
