Eyebeam of Skill

I almost outdps’d skillbeam last night.
Not the Demon Hunter, just Skillbeam.

When is nerf?

Lol, don’t nerf it, just level one of your own (they start at 98)! I love jumping on my demon hunter and smacking that eye beam button… seeing mobs melt!

Check logs and see where DH’s match up on raid fights and maybe you’ll understand class balance a little better.

If you got outdps’d by just eyebeam… I think something else is wrong…

Also, who’s gonna tell the OP that for ST eyebeam isn’t even top dmg ability for DH…

Sounds more like you are not pulling enough DPS if you are getting out DPS by a single ability…DH have always excelled at aoe burst dps, that is their niche, if you nerf that they would be useless.

What class are you talking about, it’s not the 71 hunter you posted on since the minimum DH level possible is 98. What class is your 120 that its losing to eye beam?

I think they should nerf blade dance or whatever it’s called instead. Leave the damage alone but remove the 100% or whatever dodge. They have too much of a toolkit to also have a 2 second evasion every 4 seconds, and so melee atracks are missing almost half the time. It’s insane.

Every 4 seconds? Gotta have a haste buff going to reduce it that much (bloodlust and furious gaze trait does it i think or comes close). Plus it gives a unique way to dodge mechanics by timing blade dance right. Also its only 1 second, stop exaggerating trying to make it seem way more op.

Still doesn’t excuse it, the dodge from it needs to be removed. If they do that dh’s will be fine.

We’re practically glass cannons (last I checked) as it is already why does it need to be removed.

You got tons of self healing with meta, what makes it worse is you get meta every like 24 seconds(however long eyebeam cd is) or so for 8 seconds because of eye beam. You also have tons of utility and defensives. 1 minute blur, nova, fel eruption, incapacitate, etc. all powerful abilities and on very short Cooldowns. And also the most mobility in the game, even better than druids and monks. Dodge removal from blade dance would make things fair. It’s already hard enough to kill a dh without that 100% dodge, no matter what class you are.

At this point I’m assuming your just talking world pvp which matters for jack. Cc us or root us and we are done. Not hard to stunlock a dh and murder them. Also our self healing has been nerfed it is nowhere near what it was.

Monks still have better mobility too.

If this is your main, it shows your inexperience then.

1 - DH’s do not have the most mobility. Monks actually have better mobility than DH’s. Try chasing down a good monk as a DH, you’re not doing it.

2 - That “tons of self healing” is only good in PvE. It’s nerfed so hard in PvP that it’s basically useless.

Pls nerf eye beam, I cannot heal through that uber damage.

17

If only there was some way of preventing that damage, something that could break the cast or suspend it in some fashion. Cut it short somehow. If only… :smile:

Yeah! DH are OP! Nerf them!

Pretty ridiculous how much dmg it does.

I’ll be sitting there wailing on someone in pvp and it barely tickles.

Eyebeam comes off cd and everyone in front of me just melts into a pile of goo.

Top 3rd in a raid with a spread of about 15% top to bottom for 75th percentiles. Not as nerf-worthy as say s-priest but not weak like you’re making it seem at all.
