that depends heavily if people press fel dev and meta on cd 
most people wont and thus underperform heavily
The meta part will be a dilemma. Using meta for dps and then not having it as defensive could brick key. There will be some nuance and judgment involved in when to do which. Will separate good players from average.
youd think right? but no. considering current key tuning. im sure anyone with enough time in their hands can reach cutting edge key while playing like kid with no hands. mark my words, if FS becomes meta for veng. people at top end will perform so badly with it and still succeed. if these past 3 seasons give any insight to the future of vdh in keys if meta
As it stands right now AR is for single target and FS is for AoE. You’ll see more AR in raids and more FS in M+. AR is still overly complex, especially in AoE scenarios so thankfully FS pulls ahead. AR will be a sim trap as well since it has a lot of buff maintenance.
Dorki says fel scarred pulling ahead for M+ for Vengeance so going with that.
i mean felscarred is gonna depend heavily on people using fel dev and meta on cd, people dont do this at all. so unless dorki also clarified that hes pressing these buttons on cd then theres gonna be alot of people screaming that vdh is to weak with felscarred
Yes it was mentioned knowing when you can meta offensively is going to be the learning curve
then we good, its legit just using it on cd along with feldev. i dont think its to much of a skill curve. people should have done it to begin with
FS for aoe/M+, especially for VDH because meta = tankiness.
AR for single target/raid.
concerned about the debuff micro management I’m hearing about AR. No one wants to be watching timers all the time.

Weakauras is your friend
I will wait until I hear from Jeddith on what he thinks of it. I’m not even certain I am going to be playing WWI at launch and may wait a month or so for them to fix bugs. It’s one thing I hate doing is playing at release and getting screwed over cause things don’t work right, lags, disconnects.
I’m excited to see how ridiculous havoc sustain is with reaver tbh.
Especially with the healing/HP adjustment (again). I don’t think shards got nerfed and are still 10% max HP right? It was hard to get effective healing out of them before since you were topped to full constantly.
sigh /adds yet another weak aura.
Feels ridiculous that players need weak auras just to play a spec. yea I use them. I know healers definitely use them. Just gets frustrating at times.
Listened to a good roundtable with some top players, discussion facilitated by Max, all about how to actually get better as a player. One of their top tips was to not occupy mental bandwidth with stuff that could be delegated to your UI, i.e., to addons and weak auras. You can say “oh I’ll just play better, hawk that, not miss it next time…” but even the best players can only focus so many things at once. Letting the UI hawk those things and alert us when necessary… That frees us up to focus on other things that can’t be delegated.
