Dragonflight Class Tuning Incoming - May 7

Thank you guys for the clear message that Shaman players’ feedback don’t matter to you at all. If Shamans are not under-performing right now I don’t know what class is. We are happy to continue being second class citizens in TWW

I love my spriest, but yeah, it feels a tad cheesy right now. Really could do with a nerf to the S2 set that was already easily OP in its time. I get why it was chosen, but it could do with a bit of tuning for sure.

Indeed. With their threat generation and scale mechanics, they would, in fact, make fantastic tanks.

I had to use a translation software for your statement.

“Are you afraid that someone will play the role of a drunkard? :sweat_smile:

That is the above translation.

I mean if that’s it… I think VDH will be ok

No Holy Paladin buffs? I guess we have to wait for the War Within for the class to feel good.

I can’t believe the Survival set isn’t being touched. It was every bit as bad off as Balance, and with the fixes to other bad tier sets it will soon be in a uniquely terrible situation. Even an acknowledgement that you at least see the issue and are working on fixes would be great…

It only took 55% of all tanks playing vdh for them to finally get nerfed

Destruction getting a buff is wild.

I respect keeping the nerfs minimal, but for Fury Warriors…

Really? With all the cantrip effects that’s like a 3% buff for the spec that is beneath Augmentation on raid logs, has the worst group utility in M+, and is a target capped spec that becomes worthless on larger M+ pulls.

Come on lads. Give us a better buff.

Did one of the worst tanks seriously just take a damage nerf??

Also you need to nerf the sigil talent as well (make it not apply to CC sigils).

Yes, blizzard, cause destro is DEFINITELY underperforming by 300k overall above everyone else.

Smart balance

How on earth did you completely miss Survival Hunter? Have you even signed the fact our set bonus is still a 10-25% DPS loss at 525 ilevel? Your kidding me right?

BrM has the lowest representation of any tank, better nerf them!

Good start for Prot Warriors.

Survival wise I found Prot to be very well tuned. Mitigation wise and overall tankiness was probably higher than my raid groups comparably geared Guardian Druid.

Multi Target damage was very good, especially after taking Tough as Nails. The constant stream of blocking in mobs made it easy to hold threat in multi-add situations while also pushing the base DPS up for pulls, even without CDs.

Single Target Damage was the issue in that it just doesn’t put out the numbers the druid does making threat generation in tank swap fights hard unless he stops attacking.

Overall I’d say keep fine tuning but maybe look at the threat generation for Prot Warriors as well.

Unless they delete the talent that gives them 2 charges of sigils, they will keep dominating m+

Other classes will need to use their utility every now and then. I hope they remember how.

I wish we could give more than 1 heart for things. Was shocked to see nothing for guardian.
