Dark Ranger Beast Mastery PvP Adjustments - November 11, 2024

maybe don’t tune during a live season, not like you had a Alpha, Beta, PTR, and Pre-patch to do this. Just tired of oh we made a mistake lets over correct. don’t see any pallidan nerfs when H pally and Druid seem to be all i see for healers.

I wasn’t disagreeing that it needed nerfs in pvp, just that pvp is the only place it was good in post nerfs.

Sure, gut BM, first time it’s been good in PVP since WOD. =/

Can we get some Arcane Shot pvp buffs? Asking for MM hunters. Casting Aimed Shot should be rewarding, but if you can’t buff Aimed Shot at least make Precise Shot rewarding.

Did this even go live? Can’t tell.

BM has been insanely INSANELY overpowered in PVP to a comical degree, If you want to see suffering as a hunter go into PVP as a Dark Ranger MM hunter and try 1v1ing a BM dark ranger, you’re not going to win the fight.

I mean i definitely agree with bm nerfs it is op. But lets be real on this comment…mm has had tons of seasons its slapped bm down ez mode. Five minutes of bm being doing the opposite is well deserved. Now the fun should be over and bm should be recieving its nerfs it needs. But to be honest it said they went live today. And i felt no change in my dps. So not sure it did

For pvp, MM was OP a while back, and I rerolled, it was nerfed or broken from bugs and became bad, played BM a few days and it was fine. Picking up a spec and immediately having success is odd, but I like success so okay. I don’t think these nerfs will make BM less than awesome. I would however love some DR MM and Templar Ret paladin bug fixes.

Cool, but the spec is so broken that It hasn’t changed at all. It keeps beating too much.
In fact, the damage of most dps is too high. If you are not holy Pala (God) it is extremely difficult to heal in this season.

Another problem is the excess of CCs, which was already a big problem before, but now it’s even worse because, instead of reducing the amount, you gave more CCs to the classes. Spammable rep for paladin, Stun for meges, more slows, roots for the classes…

I’ve not had time to play wow much being out of town but I heard holy priest kinda good now. When I’m not busy next week I want to test it out

I don’t know who told you that but it’s currently in one of the worst states it’s ever been in.

Holy priest can heal, they just do it the worst out of all the healers. I vote you play what you want, but holy Priest deserves something to make it competitive.

LOL, hahahha, hahahaha, ROFL, hahahaha…/em wipes a tear away, ahhhh, Blizzard you are too much.

Crazy how they didn’t buff MM hunters and fix the DR bugs to compensate :thinking:

How to fix marks:

  1. Replace bell tolls with overwatch (20% aimed/rf damage from old DR tree).
  2. Add a choice node for withering fire that replicates old withering fire.
  3. Nerf withering fire in PvP for marks by 75% or more.

This more or less puts marks back where it was in PvP before the changes, in terms of output. The problem with doing this with current withering fire active in PvP becomes random one shots when the hunter gets procs at the right time in trueshot. Nobody wants to play or play against something that depends on so much luck/variability, so we are nuking the problematic effect in PvP such that it’s always a bad decision to take it in those content types.

Marks was competitive but balanced before the patch. Dark ranger rework kinda screwed it over because of the nature of how withering fire works now, and it’s never going to be a spec that you can balance properly with withering fire in place. Damage out of trueshot has to be so low to prevent one shots in trueshot that it’s basically never threatening unless it actually gets super lucky and procs ba on its first three casts in its burst.

Friend on bnet was saying the mana isn’t great but he notice healing feels a little better. Holy priest has always been my favorite healer to play but disc so much stronger I felt force to play it instead. At this point tho blizzard making free money off me since I’ve only had maybe 4 days total time to play in a month been just logging on to get 1 or 2 vault.

Literally just fix the bugs DR has and make Bleak Powder replace Razor Fragments, thats all the class needs. Becuase it makes zero sense that we have Bleak Powder that only works if you have trickshots when we already have Razor Fragments that is the exact same spell only better.

None of that is super relevant to PvP, or why marks is bad in PvP after the rework and hotfixes.
