Class balance

Class balance should have been sorted in beta, I’m not here to beta test for the dev’s. Both my alt and main were nerfed to the point that they no longer play the same way and I honestly hate playing them.

Not going to bother leveling and gearing another toon. See ya Dragon flight. Honestly regret buying DF and coming back for it. This will be the fastest I’ve ever quit an expansion. Hope the rest of you enjoy your time, but I’m not. Adios.

I feel your pain im a resto shaman main and theyve been turned into useless trash and still havent been touched (atleast they buffed resto druids :rofl:). dont love melee so im playing ele and they arent all that much better considering their utility is now shared with every other class practically, so thanks blizzard for destroying my class as well.

What did they change that ruined the class for you?

With how much feedback was ignored during beta I am not shocked. The dps difference between meta and non meta specs right now is unacceptable.

We won’t see any meaningful balance until WFR race ends.

As a Frost mage main… All I can say is suck it up. They’ll balance it out eventually. I’m also running content just fine. Maybe not topping the charts but if the boss still dies who gaf.

a game will never be balanced, the devs can come close, but its just impossible to ask for pure balance like that.

but i mean bye?

Whats your alt and main?

I main enhance shaman and that 25% nerf was… a gigantic lol.

Glad they reverted it kinda. My other main, unholy DK, is about to be buffed as well thank god.

At least, so far this expac, they seem to be attempting to address balance at a much faster pace than shadowlands.

Like shadow priest just got buffed… and they will likely get more buffs soon as well.

I do agree we shouldn’t be beta testing DF still. So many issues and they just are doing the fix it as we go along thing.

Bliz has never been good on class balance and even when they tried pushing out more balance patches they still failed miserably.

Maining resto sham feels awful right now.

I don’t play games to “suck it up”. I play them to have fun.

Class balance wont even be sorted by the end of the expansion.

At this point I assume Blizzard’s balancing philosophy isn’t to actually balance things as much as it’s to do what the Overwatch team admitted they want to do: Mix up the meta every so often to keep things “fresh”.

At least Feral Druid is doing fairly well in something PVE related right now :smiley:

Ehh. Looking at 90th % heroic figures and Ele sham is 3rd highest ranged in the new raid. I have already seen some 20+ Mythic runs that involve ele sham, and there are already a gang of 2k+ rated ele/resto shams in pvp.

The class is fine.

Classes aren’t supposed to be equal.

Blizzard sets output targets and whether your spec is targeted to be great or bad or in the middle changes every patch and thats what they tune for: to create a shifting meta, not to create an equilibrium.

Not a single one of the recent nerfs or buffs changed what was already meta so I can’t really imagine what serious infraction could have occurred.

Every ret main:
“So what you’re saying is there’s a chance?”

10 years and waiting…

I’m okay with that, but again it should have been decided in the beta.

It was. The meta is the same as it was in beta.
