Class Tuning in Progress -- January 12

Ahhh…are we talking pve or pvp here?

You forgot ret pally burst. Or is their damage in PvP doubling everyone else’s the new norm? Lol

Havoc still needs some loving. Pretty dang weak in raids, very meh in dungeons.

Also, yet another reminder to make First Blood base line, please.

Energy and Dot damage are currently the problem for Sin this expansion. Adding SnD back to the kit without “Cut to the chase” adds a maintenance buff that just feels clunky. upping dot damage so its similar to affliction warlock would do wonders for the spec.

The catch is that Bone Shield still sucks because its got “charges” instead of being based on a defined time frame so every time we get into a pack of mobs our shield instantly disappears and we die.

They finally fixed the podtender bug… thank you so much

Just a daily reminder blizz that this buff is an absolute joke and still won’t even put it on par with Dual Wielding - I know you’re about to send it live though.

Boy I can’t wait wait for those 5k oblits to become 5.1k though lmao now thats burst!!1!

Uhh unholy just had a 20% nerf? And is no longer the outlier? And unholy is the only truly strong DK spec?

DK’s are also not top tier in PVP?

No sir, no more nerfs for DKs tyvm.

That’s ok SLs is kind of lame without a loot bump anyway.

buff DH blade dance dmg plz. and whose fn idea was to put eyebeam cdr not in demonic apetite. idc bout the dmg but the spec just feels so not fun to play compared to how it played in BFA.

Torghast will be 9% more livable for frost magi :slight_smile:

I hope they do something especially about resto shaman, between being the most op healer, they also nerfed drums so unless you’re a shaman anything that is 10+ pugging is next to impossible to even get in :confused:

Idk how you playing but they are strong af for sustained aoe which is good for dungeons outside of bosses so… Unless it’s tyrannical week, you right

I’m now 2% more likely to pick up my Frost DK again, for a total of a 2% chance. The whole Frost spec is weak - this tweak won’t do anything.

the 9% frost mage. I feel no difference at all.
Still hit like a wet noodle.

I dont think the “better” classes need to be nerfed… imagine nerfing the shaman and all the other healers stay the same way. Key content will only feel worse and worse. The reason this meta developed is because the other specs cant perform in these situations. All blizzard has to do is bring the weaker specs up to par with the stronger ones. No nerfs needed, and everyone is happy. I have never thought any class needed a nerf in PVE unless it was doing atrocious game breaking stuff. I wish people shared this mentality as well.

BM is still above Frost Mage at the very bottom of the charts, right? Just keep at it and stay plucky! We’ll reach the #1 worst spot yet, mark my words! Go hunters!

You have to be more fair. Hunter has three dps specs they can choose. I know MM isn’t the spec you want to play, and BM is your favorite way to play the hunter, but the hunter already has a top tier dps spec. There are classes that tribrid with nothing outperforming the best specs. For example, WW is the only damage spec we have available for monk, so if WW is nerfed, I dont get to just pick up a different variant of damage. Bringing up triple dps specs pushes other specs down, and once you start pushing down single dps classes you have a real problem.

Even in M+ Havoc is true mid-pack. For progression raiding they are literally the worst class, as every other class has a significantly better performing spec…aside from warrior.
