lol so dramatic and untrue. But ok
Exactly this. I was even going to endure all of that, got geared up to ilvl 378, studied all the dungeons and started memorizing the routes and mechanics and then bam they nerf me 4 days out from it. The risk vs. reward isn’t worth it as a tank any longer. I am only playing DPS for now on.

I mean that I agree with, I don’t want to do DPS as a healer. But I also don’t want to be in panic mode either.

It’s actually usually quicker to make gigantic pulls, wipe 2-3 times, and power through it. Slow and steady will always lose the race.
We’ve had constant threads from healers complaining about people not needing heals, particularly tanks. It’s literally what they’ve been asking for because they would rather have to span heals till their fingers fall off than have any downtime and throw some DPS.

This tank change is a huge miss… there’s not actual relevant content where tanks are surviving and soloing with the rest of the team dead, that’s now how the failure points of keys work. A reasonable amount of self sufficiency is pretty important to the tank experience when pugging b/c the quality of healers is going to vary. Being in control and being able to set the tone and pace of the run is a massive part of what I enjoy with tanking on my alts.
Not to mention the proposed healing style of having to spend mroe time directly tank healing is… really unappealing. Having plenty of available tanks and healers is really important for having an active experience in M+ where people can run quickly and have a good time. I’d hope with so many great thigns about Dragonflight there’s a ton of players checkign WOW out - I don’t want them to have the experience of most patch cycles where you’re waiting 15 minutes for a tank because nobody wants to tank.

I agree. You shouldn’t have to DPS as a healer, thats not your job.
I think that blizzard is trying to come about a way of making that not a thing… in the wrong way.

Random thought. Would be cool if Timewarped Badges were account bound. OwO
Shall I call you “son” in order to show how any normal person would really feel about you, your own lies, and your projection?
Reread what you screamed and tell us you didn’t intentionally make yourself come across as a middle schooler whose mom turned off your computer.
“There’s no shortage of tanks. Nah-hah. No one has ever had difficulty putting together groups because there’s dozens of tanks for each group.”
Indeed, like you, they post in complete support of changes to the game that will absolutely result in fewer tanks.
You sir are a chad

Next Wed/Thurs (maybe even shortly after reset) the threads will ramp up about the sudden increase in wait time. I wonder how many people praising Blizzard here will be making a stink then?
100%. The tanks that are going to be hit the hardest in mythic+/raids are the ones that are going to need the survivability the most, which is a pug tank, the majority of players in this game.

I love that this is always the go-to response by people who don’t actually have an argument. Yeah, you will adapt, by going back to the un-fun kiting meta of shadowlands that absolutely massacred the tank population and absolutely killed m+ participation across the board. Glad you’re here to defend the change without thinking about the actual consequences it has on the game.

Not true. More pulls, more aoe cleaves, faster runs cause each CD used has more impact when used on a huge crowd of mobs instead of using your CD on 4 mobs cause you can’t take in anymore cause of the dumb nerf. Perhaps they should buff the dps so they won’t be dying easily instead of going straight to nerfing things. But obvously, fun was detected so Blizzard can’t have that.
I hate raids mythic plus this doesn’t affect me
Man, you silly mortals sure do whine a lot…
Actiblizz you need to chill and really think about this nerf…

This is not a healthy response bud, over class tuning?? were you kicked from a group recently? was I the one that kicked you?
“Obviously brewmasters and prot warriors are equally super tanky and not healer dependent. Let’s do an across the broad nerf on tanks because all tanks are perfectly balanced right now.”

These look like good changes.
