Class Tuning Incoming – December 17

Demon hunters are really just a fourth warlock spec that escaped and tried to become its own class. They should come back home.

Really needed it. I see you are pushing Diabolist for PvP Destruction.

So we leave BM and Feral alone but we nerf the least played spec in PvP which underperforms more than any other. What is even this logic if not Blizzard saying they don’t want Augmentation to be played in PvP?

Other than that, what PvP needs is not buffs and nerfs at the moment, but an MMR redesign and a new rewards system. I am sure Blizzard is aware of what people are complaining about in PvP. I hope you are already thinking about something for the future because you are neglecting it more than you ever did.

Is Illidan a warlock in your opinion? I think not.

One of the problems is that the class, especially Havoc, seems like it’s designed for a MOBA game. I could totally see Havoc working on a game like LoL just with Eye Beam, Blur, CS and BD. It would even work well on a mobile, it just feels different than most other classes. In PvP people don’t complain as much unless the class is dying too much or not doing any damage. Making Fel Rush important also makes DHs very vulnerable in PvE.

In my opinion what “killed” the spec was the leech nerf though. That was an insane nerf.

Illidan is a unique character who leverages demonic powers in a similar way to warlocks. The illidari are escapees from the warlock talent tree.

Just come home already. The warlocks still love you. There are lock cookies in the oven!

Was hoping to see:

“Fixed the issue which caused Spinning Crane Kick to randomly cancel”

An actual issue doesn’t get touched…Bizarre!!

and we what say?? if Blizzard never listen us, our clas is trash man, and you no are main paladin dont speak for us

Just take a look at the paladin forums so you can see that we are neither calm nor happy, we are in the hole, and pve does not represent all the game that exists, in pvp we are garbage

“You People” (blizzard Folks) Seem so out of touch with your class balancing. It is actually remarkable to say the least. Whoever is in charge of the class changes needs to start understanding the classes better in general because, it shows the knowledge required for this role is not there with the individual doing them. Let alone trying to understand a dk’s quadratic system and Disease damage OR any other class that requires a deeper understanding.

You forgot to mention this was a net exchange, meaning is isn’t a buff nor nerf.

That said, there was an undocumented nerf to hunters.

  • Shadow Surge damage nerfed by 50%
  • Bugs where Bleak Powder was benefitting from both Unnatural Causes and Specialized Arsenal (Twice!) were fixed. This will nerf Bleak Powder damage by ~40%.

So this is a bugfix with a nerf attached, not a buff in any way shape or form.

Pro Tip: You can add 25% more to Druid healing and it will still be unable to handle the burst in arenas. Yet another class rolled, tested, then left to die because players wanted to play druid while the devs wanted players to suffer with the choice.

The number one reason I unsubbed from the game.

Trash* fix that for u brother

Bruh, you always have 1 spec either meta, or about to receive a rework and become a monster (at least over DF and TWW so far…)
