NO damage
NO utility
NO defenses
It’s got good damage and decent utility imo, just lacking defensively. But it could use a small ST buff perhaps hmm… I just really want more QoL and defensive buffs.
Is the good damage in the room with us
class is dogwater confirmed
hahaha. yes. yes it is.
I feel like I always do pretty good damage, but our ST sustained damage could use some love. I think a start would be looking at things like essence break for example and taking that modifier down from 40% to 20% or something and then just buffing chaos strike and blade dance by 20% baseline, having too much of our damage packed into a tiny debuff window sucks. And there’s more things like that too which I feel hurt us overall.
Nah, make demon hunter 3rd tree. Chaos. A buff class able to damage with their whip. Heal and infuse others with demonic powers using eye beams, sigils and fire.
it’s embarrassing in raids to get stomped by Ret pally’s who probably play with their feet, whilst you are breaking your hand and setting fire to the keyboard to sit mid-pack or lower depending on the fight.
Makes you question why the effort.
I remember discussing this in the DH forums a while back, though not quite the same thing. Glaive-tosser ranged spec (some similarities to BM Hunter, but obviously no pets) that utilizes sigils and runes to buff allies and debuff enemies.
Dunno on the healing front, demonic powers don’t tend to exactly… heal.
Our demon hunter abilities already heal by ripping souls. And what better way to rip a soul than to use a whip.
lets just get a single target buff please
Quality of life changes, slight boost to ST sustained, make defensives stronger or shorter CD.
For the hundredth time…
Give us a reskinned “soar” and let us fly!
This… mostly this, and I would prefer stronger defensives for sure lol
the only way things get better is if we stop settling for a minor change that will make us D tier, the meta in 2024 is people are disingenuous to get things nerfed and gaslight so their spec stays strong, we actually have to be as blunt and consistent as can be to see meaningful changes
I swear they were trolling when they gave DH, the mobile class, a stationary defense that you have to stand in for its RNG effect. 5 minute cooldown is just icing on the cake.
I’m still waiting for them to rework Darkness. In terms of raid defensives it’s been powercrept heavily.
Haha, I’ve thought of this so much recently.
Havoc is the most mobile spec but:
1- Has to blow up and use its mobility doing DPS
2- Eye Beam roots it in place, with Blind Fury for decently long amounts of time
3- Darkness is an stationary AoE that hides other effects on the floor
4- Can not use mobility spells while rooted and cannot remove roots
It’s funny, ngl
Bahaha I never thought about that but it’s so true
Funny name and brilliant observation
In the novel we were able to “disappear into the shadows”
How do you feel about a possible fix being the size of the circle is doubled, or even tripled, and also makes the DH is invisible. Have ground shadows only visible to allies and double it’s opacity (to not hide effects)
Maybe make it last 10 seconds and 15 with talent?
It’s funny because me and my brother were actually talking about this and I think it would make darkness better for sure. Probably a bandaid fix instead of giving us something different, but I’d take it.
