filtered to boss damage cause single target sustained dmg is the issue not aoe or cleave. We just need a better single target tree option. They could split the tree to give us the same aoe but make it cost aoe to buff our ST. Filtering to overall damage is a disservice to the argument because it skews the data too high.
If we do ~60k ST while the average class is doing ~90k (made up numbers) , but overall we do ~100k against the average class doing ~110k , it doesnt look as bad.
Also whoever this high and might babs guy is , you need to be knocked off your high horse. Quit being satisfied with being middle of the pack. If you are an advocate you’d find ways to back the argument instead of defending blizzard who has obviously long forgotten to care about WW. If WW is really bad for 5 months then mediocre for 1 month just to be out-scaled and be really bad again, I think that would be relevant to the conversation as to why they need to fix it. Im not here saying we need to be the best but when was the last time you saw 4 WW in a raid like you see 4 hunters or 4 warlocks.
ALSO - WW is the only DPS spec for monks, we dont have a secondary option like a lot of the classes that got buffed (excluding DH). So we would like our spec to be above middles so that way we can compete without having to bend our knee to tank or heal.
