How come a tank can clear a t11 delve solo with 30 less ilevels than my DPS. This is such an easy fix, and such an obvious one, as well. It’s very frustrating since I am trying to learn and play my Feral druid but there’s no point… I can instead just play Guardian and use half the effort and garner 1/10th the potential frustration.
I’d like tank brann to be good for DPS, not just healers don’t want to do mob management
Mob management is probably 25% of why delves are easier for tanks, and lack thereof is 50% of why they’re harder for healers.
Like, as a healer with tank Brann, good luck trying to use the spores in the fungal delves to take out enemies, or controlling pull size, or anything.
What’s the fix?
Guardian being easier doesn’t stop you from learning how to play Feral. That’s a very weak excuse.
The easy fix would be to tune down the damage received. The harder fix would be make Tank Brann much better.
As it stands there’s really no reason to run DPS if your class has a tank spec. It’s comically easier than playing any damage role.
Thanks captain obvious. I’m just saying my feral cannot do a t11 at this ilvl right now, so I just have to run Guardian until my stam is up, then I’ll play Feral.
So you want Blizzard to nerf the content so you can do it easier on a spec you aren’t good enough with or geared enough with to do it on, instead of getting better and getting more gear?
Makes sense.
You know what would make sense? If DPS could clear a T11 with the same ilvl as a tank could. That’s… called balance. Which is the whole point of the topic. Most people love Delves as a solo experience. But the spec and role balance is quite broken.
Delves are already easy. They aren’t going to “fix” them by making them as braindead easy for everyone as they are for tanks. They’re more likely to nerf tanks in delves to bring them in line. A debuff making tanks take a bunch of extra damage so they have to actually put forth effort would do the trick.
It is 100% not worth the effort to try and balance solo content around specs. That’s what the different roles for Brann are there for.
If you’re using Tank Brann as a dps you’re doing it wrong. That got fixed after the first week.
Healer brann in every situation as DPS.
Yeah tanks have it way way too easy, you’re absolutely right.
I mean, as a fury warrior, I do fine unless I screw up. I was doing them as I hit the ilvl requirements for each tier. same for DK, DH, Rogue and paladin.
How would you balance delves? Would you make it tougher on tanks, or easier on healers/dps?
While tanks do have it easy, delves are fine. They’re relatively easy for everyone, especially with the bonus power we get.
Delves on a tank with DPS Brann are basically a walking simulator. Nothing poses a serious threat to a tank even far below the recomend ilvl.
Pull whole rooms, stand in whatever. Just keep moving Brann and splash damage will kill everything eventually. Super boring, but at the same time the ease has allowed me to keep my warrior more or less abreast with my mage and that’s nice.
