Ignoring player feedback has never worked out for you

As we head into week 3 of Season 1 on Tuesday, we currently have 0 communication or announcements of nerfs to the very obviously overtuned and glaring problem dungeons and bosses. You stated in your last round of “nerfs” that you want to wait a while before doing anything. Well unfortunately, you’ve decided that these 8 dungeons won’t be in the Mythic+ pool in season 2 which means that “wait a while” will end up being too late. The time to act is now.

It is an indictment of your balance team that Algeth’ar Academy’s Overgrown Ancient has been called overtuned since testing and you have done nothing to improve or fix it. Meanwhile a dungeon like Shadowmoon Burial Grounds falls over on it’s face when you look at it. What makes it even worse is the fact that your minds read those two statement and rather than say “we should listen to overwhelming player feedback and nerf Overgrown Ancient” you say “we should make Shadowmoon Burial Grounds harder” and that mindset is horrible.

Why have you still not learned this lesson? When players are giving you this feedback on tuning and you do nothing about it people have stopped doing the content. Did shadowlands participation rate fall off not teach you this? There is no such thing as “just get good” when mechanics are 1 shotting people or rotting them down beyond what any healer can deal with.

You realize they nerfed some of the them last week right? It has been less than 7 days since the last communication/implementation of nerfs.

They did nerf overgrown ancient.

They didn’t make Shadowmoon Burial Grounds harder

They did exactly what you are suggesting…so I don’t even know what your post is about.

They listen to streamers and esport teams not actualy player base.
Thats the problem guilds like method have helped run the overall game into the ground.

As a ret pally im really confused.

I save my wings and wake for first set of adds and 2nd set i have divine toll.

Are dps just that bad recently on tree boss?

Admittedly i just bubble when stacks get too high and boss is always dead by then.

Edit: when things get bad i lay on hands and start spamming heals to help out if grevious is up to 4 on the party.

Agreed i have been active this week in M+. Just not worth my time, the team is not up to the damage boss is doing.

Resto shaman on 14 Nokud literally watches his team melt on the second boss while my rally is up.

Yeah so great the did free trial and a discounted sale with added free month game time lol.

Does the ability to read change logs make someone a “Chad”? I guess I’ll take it.

Post your reading logs first and then I’ll post mine.

His post is about the imbalance in the dungeons.

You would know the balancing issues if you actually did any hard content. OP has 17 timed while you are doing 9 keys ? Might be good to read and see if there any actual related issues which are happening in game.

So since the OP has done a 17 he is allowed to post completely incorrect information that doesn’t match reality at all.

They were wrong. I provided information to show that they were wrong. I’m sorry that factual information offends you.

Wonder why players are still wiping on 14 keys ? Now dont tell me you want me to link you numerous threads posted this week on AA ?

You know what is correct ?

Sure lets take your word - you bricked a +10 - wait for it - COS.

I as a prot warrior on NO 14 - got chucked for 90% of my health when I Shield Charge Tempest to open the fight. YOu are very clueless.

You can link whatever you want, unlike you, I have not hidden my profile.

That still doesn’t change the fact that the entire premise of the OP was wrong.

You don’t have to take my word. I literally posted the Blizzard change long from WoWhead.

Here it is again from an actual Bluepost of the forums if you think that is more credible.

So basically you have no real gaming experience to support but what is in theory?

good job champ.

The fact that there has been communication in the last week and multiple nerfs, to include the specific boss the OP mentioned, is not a theory. It is a verifiable fact that I have supported with change notes multiple times at this point.

Are you OK? I’m starting to worry about you.

bruh lmao - does anyone have a 14 AA key - take this gamer for a ride, please.

I’ve been reading your back and forth and I don’t understand the point you’re trying to make or why what level key the OP has run matters. OP said Blizzard hasn’t nerfed anything or communicated lately. False. OP also said that the Ancient hasn’t been “improved or fixed” since launch. Also false. It’s all right in the links that Nikolo provided, which is an article from only six days ago.

While we want to be careful not to change too much as players are still figuring out the new dungeons, we’ve identified some areas where we’d like to act on feedback sooner than later.

Guys, dungeons are not tuned in properly. No point in putting your fellow gamer down. When they are pointing out issues.

Possibly, I like how much you care. For me, they don’t have a ‘big idea’ of how things are supposed to work - so if you don’t have a world vision, no way that player feedback can matter, because you haven’t committed to anything. Anyway, I wish Bliz. cared as much as you do.

esports mentality is a cancer on this game
