Say what you want about DH being too good / whatever
But this antiquated idea that DH is two buttons like it’s BFA.
DH presses way more buttons then pretty much any melee and has tons of obnoxious micro setups to go from average to good. Not to mention Glimpse requiring an actual good players to get value out of.
Again, say what you want about DH. It’s incredibly easy to be very averagely effective at the spec but to be really good requires way more of a brain than any other melee other than maybe WW or outlaw.
Yea, they made the damage rotation very complexed for a melee, at a point where its hella fun. Gotta time inertia, dont let fel barrage fall off, keep all ur debuffs, to a point where you dont even press the old 2 buttons half the time.
It’s any class but there is obviously sliding scales as to which classes have to do more to be effective.
It’s way easier to be a good warrior than it is to be a good DH. Not even really close.
Warrior damage is way more front loaded, requires way less setup to get max value from, is way more passively tanky.
The only thing that really separates good warriors from bad ones are good banners and bladestorms. Good fears and venes are almost always reactionary. Banner is the only pre-emptive button they press where as literally every thing a good DH does defensively is pre emptive (blur, dark, glimpse).
Warrior defense amounts to pressing ignore pain on CD and staying in.
My point is by no means to say that DH is some 10-head spec but I’m just so tired of whenever any spec is too good people say things like “lol 2 button spec”. DH presses way way way more buttons than almost any spec in the game.
I will agree to this for the most part. For non DH players, how good does it feel to meld incoming CC? Now imagine always being on alert for enemy stuns and your own DRs so you can get ready to glimpse it.
So difficult guys to press glaive before eyebeam. So difficult to press my 2 button rotation that feeds of itself because of soul pickups and fury refund so difficult to pool fury and just spend it again in barrage it takes so much brain to pool all that fury that gets refunded and oh I forgot very difficult to play with that extra haste in demon form and hunt one tap/dot. So difficult to get resources as dh is not like demonblades just feeds of itself with constant felblade resets yea yea dhs are always fury starved yes
Get real this meme of dh being the most difficult melee is just that, a meme. They went from 121212 to a little more and that is a good thing. But they are not difficult at all
Your setup is another version of a warr stacking OP and bleeds or ret settig judgements and dawn/empyrean legacy.
People say dh is a hard spec, because it does have a pretty high skill cap currently. But it doesn’t change the fact that it’s skill floor is still practically 0. Into most matchups you can just go full zug zug just doing damage all game. having 0 thought. But there are matchups that you need outplays to win, except with how insane the spec currently is. It’s damage output is so high that even bad matchups are ok.
balance druid does more dps by far, resto needs nerfs, mm hjunter, bm hunter lol, unholy dk, locks hahahha sub and assa now are wayyyy too overtunes but lets pick on 1 class you don’t like. You are funny
