Can anyone spot the trend?

Whenever a class is #1 dps it’s always because of an azerite trait. They then nerf that trait ultimately killing the spec.

The cycle continues. They gave up on class balance this xpack in favor of just nerfing whatever azerite trait is “broken”

It’s the same thing they’ve been doing for years, just a different approach. I fail to see how this is anything new or mind blowing.

The only difference is the way they’re going about it.

He didn’t say it was. He’s describing his perception of what they’re doing in this expansion.

Okay? Thanks for the clarification, I guess?

I’m saying it’s the same crap with a different name.

It’s different with traits though. Before when they were nerfing the class or spec itself, nothing could be done, you just kept playing your class as best as possible. Now since classes/specs are reliant on traits if you’re current bis trait gets burned to the ground you gotta now go farm the next new bis. We never had to farm traits/gear before whenever a class/spec got nerfed. But now that they’re focusing balance around traits rather than the class and specs themselves now we do have to farm new gear/traits with this new system.

Its intentional. Class A is OP it gets nerfed. People re roll and chase the carrot with new Op class that was buffed. Class B is nerfed rinse and repeat. Time played metric in action.
