Class Tuning Incoming – December 17

Unless I missed something, I scanned a bunch of the top key runs and I don’t even see a BDK in like the top 50 pages. Saw all the other tanks though.

I have both tanks and while I wouldn’t say BrM is great, it isn’t near as bad as people are making it out to be. A lot of bleeting sheep just parroting takes from the masses without actually getting any actual experience with what they parrot (especially at key levels the extreme vast majority are and will be staying at).

So is Brewmaster overperforming ir something? I don’t understand why they keep getting neglected

The problem is that DK is built to be basically unkillable as long as they don’t get one shot. In higher keys they have a tendency to just fall over, so that makes balance very hard to do, I guess.

I do think they should be able to deal with incoming damage better, perhaps a shorter cooldown on Tombstone and reduce the bone shield consumption to 3 instead of 5? And increase armor from boneshield by about 20%

I do see some brews before this one, but this is the top ranked M+ blood. #177 overall tank in terms of iO

Only changes for Rdruid in pvp?
and now he has to juggle to keep the party’s hp and be able to do dps in pve…
the other healers have a bit more ease in those areas (especially shamans), I don’t mention the disc priests because it’s their moment to shine and because doing damage to heal is their theme.

Wait, did aug get popular in PvP while I was away or something?

Many thanks, Kaivax.

I’m hoping that this is only a bandaid fix to the eventual adjustments to more problematic aspects of Devastation such as Flameshaper.

This is very much appreciated though.

Zekvir STILL one shotting Pets? Why don’t you guys read a suggestion that makes your job easier to fix that here?

Kinda strange to see no tank changes to the low performers. Would it really be so hard to throw like 5% reduced damage taken at brew for the rest of the season?

That’s probably close to correct. These aura buffs usually don’t amount to much of anything, just lets the devs pat themselves on the back for putting DH on the notes at all.

Felhammer number crunching says 4% ST buff, on average.

I really want to be excited but at this point I’m just jaded lmao. I guess anything is better than nothing…

4% is way better than i thought. gg. Looks like 1.5% in keys on fel too.

Good. Two dps druids that sitting in bottom of dps statistics from WCL, 30% lower than top tier dps, is not considered underperformed in Blizzard’s eye so they don’t deserve any single look at this point. Shame on you.

YES!!! I will be playing Affliction. Ty for the buffs. I was not playing it because it was a little weak and I do progression. Affliction is one of my favorite classes. Merry Christmas to me!

Impossible. I’ve heard you guys never balance the game.

I would love to know what did the havoc players do to deserve a meme worthy (that exists) buffs to felblade?

Did the havoc player say something to upset the dev?
The class needs more than that. Is there someone, anyone, still working on this spec?
