Evoker Damage Obscenely Overtuned

Why am I getting hit for 30k ticks from an AoE ability from this busted class? That’s harder than my Hunter’s Kill Shot. Two Evokers with decent gear can coordinate their flying breath attack and literally wipe an entire team in Epic BGs. It’s absolutely disgusting.

As punishment for being a paladin.
Now repent.

Divine Steed is the punishment for being a Paladin. I’ve paid my dues.

Blizz says otherwise in this moment.

First I was going to say it’s actually pretty mid range, but then I realized you were talking pvp.

Pvp needs full separate tuning.

Because Fire Breath is meant to cleave and hit hard and Deep Breath is bugged to hit multiple times.

Yeah. The threads that don’t specify PVE/PVP are confusing. Evoker DPS in PVE seems fine to me.

Easy way to know the source of the complain / feedback / criticism:

  • Evokers are OP: any melee class.
  • Evokers are thrash: any ranged class.

Think about it.

I keep hearing evoker either sucks as a class or its too powerful. Which is it?

Agreed, nerf evoker. Its the only way.

Step into PVP and see for yourself.

This.
The 25y range makes devastation a free kill to ranged, and a pain to melee due to hover.

If you expected a new class to be tuned at the end of an expansion they have nothing to do with I dunno what to tell you lol. Blizzard is letting preorder people have their fun. Plus evokers arent likely to go raiding or full pvp mode to get gear for a few weeks of playing SL.

I think its gonna be okay.

I’m telling you guys that -I- was hit with 30k ticks from Deep Breath. That does not happen in PVE. That means it must be in PVP.

Bugged to hit multiple times is another issue altogether, but in what universe should an AoE DoT be ticking harder than single target direct damage execute abilities? That’s just asinine.

TBF the ability is built to hit for a certain amount and you can choose whether that is front loaded or dot damage.

Plus, long cd.

Kill Shot is hardly an “Execute” now.
The best execute ability in the game atm, when it comes to damage, is the WW monk’s AoE Touch of Death.

Hello, I see you posted a thread about not understanding how a prepatch works. You must be new to the game! Welcome! Pre-patch’s are “balanced” around the next level cap, not the current one, haha!

Thanks for your post and have a great day!
