First, thank you for nerfing some of the 1 shots like sub’s one shot. That stuff is just bad for the game.
Second, increasing health by 40% increased defensives that heal by % health or bubble by % health as well. This has some DPS classes self-healing very unfun to deal with (like affli warlock, mainly sub rogue, and fury warrior). Conversely, dps specs the relied on direct healing to support their self-healing have been nerfed on their survivability (like feral druid and enh shaman).
Third, there’s a sizeable disparity in tanks for PvP, with guardian druid being an outlier- due in large part to 40% more HP and healing by % total HP. Will there be a balance pass for the PvP tanks?
It has a two minute cool down.
As Venruki demonstrated (over and over and over again), it only takes 1 one-shot combo to end the solo shuffle match lol.

Maybe Blizzard should hire people like this to do work / find bugs when it comes to class designs. That way we might end up seeing annoying nerfs from clueless devs…

Nooooooo it does not! FF14 handles aggro like hot dog water.
-FF14 tank raider
Devs probably play them a lot or love the class. Monks have been insane since their inception.

does anyone know who is doing class tuning for pvp now?

They constantly top the dmg meter and the healing charts in BGs. While having insane damage mitigation. At this point they are a combination of a tank, healer, and dps class.
Does the above tuning (not specified as pvp tuning, i.e marksman 10% damage buff) also apply to pvp?
Agreed. I also like being able to monitor threat in the side instead of a giant cluster of plates floating around aimlessly over a a half dozen ir more mobs at a time.
You know tank stances were a thing at one point more or less right? To be honest tank threat right now could be a problem. Ive opened with judgement, avengers, and divine toll and still had randomll threat loss on pulls. Literally random where it seems like the mob would mysteriously drop threat or not register mine. And if Im generating 550% threat and they are not doing wildly more damage they should be getting threat.
And reversing that Ive pulled threat on pulls a lot too as Ret. It seems to be mostly a melee dps burst thing. I dont seem to lose threat to ranged but holy hell do DH and Enh Shaman rip it off on pulls.
Wtf are you talking about, dodge nerf hammer indefinitely? Dh has been nerfed every week for nearly 2 months. You’re just mad a class that isn’t usually the top became too good. And yes it was too good. And did need nerfs. But it’s obvious you just want them to be f tier.
i havnt had a threat issue as of yet but i do get a ton of nerds who either pull extra stuff or a dps who wants to lowkey tank and pulls everything
No tuning for blade flurry doing substantially more damage than every other ability atm? Lul
I also want to main Survival and this is not enough. Blizzard please look at hunters defensive’s! They are some of the worst if not THE worst in the game.

But you can have a caster with over half a million hp… absorbs “all” damage passively and actively. Insane passive and active leech and melts everything… gotcha

Tanking can’t be fun ‘again’ if it never was fun. I don’t mind tanking, but let’s ask football players if they like getting tackled all day… they’ll answer ‘No, but it pays well’. Tanking isn’t fun. And it doesn’t really pay well either.
Honestly they need to stop giving mobs sprint mechanics and let dodge themed tanks actually dodge and run bosses around to avoid damage, anything that isn’t ‘I’m a worse DPS with big shield/health pool/leech and a few CDs that make my job matter’.
But this is Blizzard, changing boss mechanics isn’t in their skill set. Taking that into consideration the best fix for tanks I can figure is to add a few new ones. Let warlocks have a tank demon form back (lore can be they took DH advice and didn’t consume demons, instead they create a temp fuse with soulstones and give us a few half demon forms to play with in a new spec). Also, another good class to tank, let hunters ride their pet into battle (scale them up like Torghast vittles); the people have been begging to ride their pets for ages, it’s about time to make them work for it.
