Demon Hunters are perfect examples of how far class design has fallen

[Tobipeace-illidan]

Okay Sombra.

It’s changed a lot. There’s two builds, one that is easy and another that has better DPS but has a higher skill ceiling.

First build: Beam boost + immolation aura. Beam everything, hit buttons, beam. Need atleast one eyes of haze to optimise.

Second: Felblade build, relies more on demon’s bite for resource generation but less downtime in terms of skill usage.

Both builds use demon as the last tier because the best Azerite trust is Furious Gaze, which gives use huge damage windows after the fel meme beam.

I’m sorry. I can’t hear you over all the acrobatics I’m doing.

If that’s the peak I’d rather stay at the valley.

Warlocks are just mad that we’re the superior Fel-users. No warlock ever disenchanted a demon hunter.

Class design has been lackluster since Legion, with most classes feeling bad to play. This is made even more apparent when we look at Demon Hunters, Blizzards most recent class that they have created (also created in Legion, what a coincidence)

It only has 2 specs, and its DPS spec especially is so faceroll that it’s not even funny. It steals class fantasy from other classes, and it’s rotation is simple and boring. The amount of “buttons” it has is pathetic.

Sometimes I wonder why classes are so lackluster, then I look at Demon Hunters, a class created by this current team and it all makes sense.

Feel the hatred of ten thousand years…

I’m sorry you were saying?!

That’s what made MoP so fun, the fact that every class was OP to some extent.

[Raad-khadgar]

More buttons to press don’t make things fun to play or ‘measures your skill’ like the OP wants to claim.

He/she just wants to vent why a DH broke her heart .

Lord Illidan knows the way.

I have.

[Rhielle-sentinels (Rhielle)]

It only has 2 specs

Because there was no third spec that remotely made any sense.

its DPS spec especially is so faceroll

I still enjoy it.

[Syllidan-khazgoroth]

Just a novice alt DH here. It feels great when beam is ready, but terrible the rest of the time, mashing buttons that don’t seem to do anything. If there was a bit of interaction in the base ‘rotation’ it might feel better.

[Vraxxia-proudmoore]

demon hunters seem pretty good damage wise, they may be a little simple but I don’t think they are that much easier than the other dps. Probably one of my least favorite classes however.

[anon37571265]

Hi fellow Khaz’Gorthian DH.

As you get more haste you’ll find this smooths out and you’ll find it a fun challenge to have large burst windows after Eye Beam compared to what you have now. It’s why we roll triple Furious Gaze.

This kills stuff super fast because of the boosted Death Sweeps + Annihilation and then translates into more eye beams because of the cool down reduction thanks to all the soul fragments we’re getting (why it’s also good to have one eyes of rage trait too).

[Vashti-westfall]

Same exact story as a BC to Legion hunter diehard, only my vanilla main and co-main from BC onward was always some sort of healer so I thankfully had that to fall back on when the unthinkable happened in Legion and I hung up my bow. BFA hunters feel better, but that’s just like saying “this piece of poop is less runny”. I’m not playing SV because I hate melee, all melee, period, and BM I only ever played when raiding on a high level and forced into the spec when it was top dps. At least MM feels better than Legion, but again that really isn’t saying much.

What the heck happened to hunters?!

[Eret-hyjal (Eret)]

Yet they’re not pigeonholed into doing AOE damage or single-target they do both well. I just wish other classes were like that

[Wÿvern-stormrage (Wÿvern)]

they were tanky but it wasn’t OP. All melee could kill them; especially rogue. And I mean that as a mage, since warlock was a complete hard counter; I could literally do nothing against them.

The only thing that warlok had OP was Chaos bolt early in the expansion, as it was going around 70-90% of people’s HP when it crit. It was just broken. But it got patched very quickly.

[Malsethiron-moon-guard]

.

Opinions, really.

I feel like DH is fun to play and has a smooth rotation with plenty of utility.

[Tacohands-malganis]

What the heck happened to hunters?!

I wonder the same thing every time I log in.

[Ariesmet-anubarak (Ariesmet)]

DH are the best designed class in the game at the moment. Mobile, effective, easy to learn, and just plain fun.

They are a joy to play.

This is honestly what every class should be. Fun.

[Lepermessiah-thunderlord (Lepermessiah)]

My gripe is that Vengeance is trash in PVP and has been since its inception. It is beast mode in PVE (although sluggish) but all you can do in PVP is pretty much Demonic Trample and run away. You won’t be killing anybody.

[Brax-blades-edge (Brax)]

My enthusiasm for “more buttons” dies fast once I run out of actual keyboard buttons to bind them to (and keep in mind I need keys for interface functions, items, macros, and movement too.)

For most of the classes I play, I’d be happy to trade off a few buttons for DH’s mobility.

[Argorwal-ysera (Argorwal)]

Legion had the best spec ever created in WoW. WW Monk, too bad they ruined it in BFA.

Ummm, basically they just removed strike of the wind lord?

WW doesn’t play much different than Legion at all.
