Class Tuning Incoming November 1

[Reynahrd-area-52]

Yeah, this is sort of frustrating. The communication has been inconsistent or non-existent for a few weeks now. It started off really good during alpha, but went downhill fast. A 25% nerf to an entire spec should come with more than one sentence.

My blanket response to blue post.

What about my class!!?? or Why my class!!??

Good Day Sir/Ma’am.

[Jatarri-zuljin (Jatarri)]

Maybe I start the expansion with my SPriest instead of my Hunter for the first time ever

[Ronina-pagle]

Turn off shadowlands stuff.

Turn it off right now.

Having, essentially, 10 extra talent points is bad and gives people a bad impression of what dragonflight will be like.

Turn it off.
Turn it offffff.

[Demonika-lothar]

Huntards were OP in SL…its time to send them back to the basement.

@Kaivax

Enhancement

• All damage dealt reduced by 25%.

lol.

[Kennie-malganis]

Dang, Enh getting taken out behind the shed. I haven’t played much content on beta or looked at logs but I hope these are justified tweaks.

[Whitetyrone-grizzly-hills]

I’m confused, this says Nov 1.

When? we just had maintenance and it doesn’t look like these changes happened.

[Anxxy-area-52]

@Shenny-thrall

Geeze. How bad did you guys mess up Demo? lol

The spec is completely bad to play right now. I lost DPS going into the prepatch, the rotation and build is the exact same with a few new buttons, so I’m not messing up my rotation. I just lost a crazy amount of dmg.

[Galedron-area-52]

@Rita-velen

Are you kidding? MM is the second worst spec in the game and you’re nerfing it?

How does this balancing occur? What data are you looking at?

Personally, I’m not upset about Aimed Shot nerfs.
MM is a fun spec ruined by Aimed Shot being over tuned and taking absolutely priority.

Being X position on the ladder right now is irrelevant. Damage profile is important though.

If you’re basing it off tool-tips, often they need a cache wipe.

[Dergs-trollbane]

I think we will still have insanity issues - listen to the Publik podcast

[Sumboy-arugal]

They are live

[Demonika-lothar]

Yes it was necessary…bye bye shammies

[Argorwal-ysera (Argorwal)]

@Jilrog-malganis

It really is aggrevating when there is finally a spec that is fun to play and actually is able to deal damage only for blizzard to come around and nerf them horrendously.

Seriously, for once. Can you please leave the fun specs with good damage alone? People play games to have fun, not be frustrated because the only fun specs are as weak as wet toilet paper.

It’s funny how “fun” always seems to hang around “brokenly OP”

WW and Enhance had no playstyle nerfs at all.

[Anxxy-area-52]

Legit the fact that enhance is even comparable to WW blows my mind. A nerf was pretty obviously coming. Enhance will still be good at 70, for sure.

[Demonika-lothar]

Because it was broken in SL or pvp…time to send it back to the basement!

[Rgonewildd-sargeras]

@Jilrog-malganis

All because blizzard is silly enough to balance around pre patch performance when:

Do you really think they don’t run sims at max level and gear? Don’t be so naive

[Zootzoot-kaelthas (Zootzoot)]

@Slade-area-52

Bruh we know you won’t buff us monk mains back up come DF launch. Way to destroy monk just before launch again. How many expac is this?

It amounts to a 12 to 15 percent nerf to WW damage. That’s fair based on how we were performing in Beta at 70. It’s fine.
