I’m confused, why are they nerfing Guardian Druids when we’re the lowest DPS tank? I’m confused. I’m fine with some balance changes, but where’s the compensation buffs? The damage is already too low.
While it does look to be a very tiny nerf, it’s almost insulting to see how out of touch they are.
Going to guess they couldn’t get the code to separate between Guardian and Balance, so when they nerfed it for Balance, they couldn’t get the bugs out and left the nerf in for Guardian since, as Lardna says, it’s really a minor nerf (like .4% overall)
This. So much this.
Everything in the data and in the community and yall going live with a guardian damage nerf.
You guys do this professionally? Like this is your day job, not just a side hustle or anything?
Its getting harder every day to find reasons not to replace devs with ai
Uh… let’s not do that, thanks.
This is exactly what I was thinking once I saw the Balance changes.
They share the same spell ID so its not too wild of a claim
going to have to switch tanks now, and I put so much time into my guardian.
Or just didn’t want to maintain two similar but different hero modifications. Makes me wonder what will happen with the next expansion… new hero specs? And if so, do we loose lunar bear and druid of the claw or do they just get reimagined for the new terrain?
No they said these will be evergreen. So they’ll probably stay as they are, to enhance a specific playstyle.
ai cucks out
its a .4% loss
Yes please AI these “devs”
Every single class is plagued with crap that doesn’t work!!!
Still wondering why Balance got the 10% starfall nerf.
Looking at my dmg break down in keys. Ive seen starfall as my number 3 in sume runs, when it was #1.
So now starfire and Starsugre are picking up the dmg I guess?
Still in raid Balance feels bad, though keys they feel great. Very odd tuning.
10% nerf shouldnt have resulted in that big of a drop
you know why theyre blaming the starfall nerf…
I assumed they’re trying to get more people to play slash bear. But also refuse to make the changes to slash bear that would make it desirable to play.
Slash bear is too rage starved to both use maul/raze and to safely maintain ironfur outside of berserk. Bear bubble still being locked to 25% of damage from raze and thrash is also a problem. It doesn’t compare favorably to 25% healing from moonfire/thrash/lunarmeme for moonbear.
I love the slash bear play style, but they’d need to increase its rage generation, and bake free ironfur into every 4th maul/raze, and bump bear bubble to 40-50% for it to feel as smooth as laser bear is in keys.
So the play here is to only use Raze/Maul on TnC procs
Save your rage for Iron Fur
Makes it a lot better to deal with than trying to throw out extra Razes (outside of Zerk like you said).
