Is arena at the worst state balance wise since 10.0.7

It seems to be getting worse. It was bad before and now its unplayable.

Don’t speak to me classic warrior.

I’ve seen you lose the easiest nodes on your dragon.
How is someone that cant do something as basic as spin a node 2770.
Blitz is a joke bracket.

By watching someone’s stream probably lmao.

Joke bracket joke rating.

So if you dont listen to pro players or representation statistics of solo shuffle how would you determine what spec is strong and what isnt?

If feral has a 20% representation rate and pro players that write skill cap guides say its OP wouldnt that be enough data to suggest its strong?

I’ve seen some of those same players say that their own favorite spec is weak when in fact it’s not.
Those kind of sources aren’t generally unbiased.

Representation just means people play it a lot, not if something is specifically strong.

He was smart enough to spam it in the first week when 2800 was free just for coin flip queueing for a few days, then Blizzard nuked MMR so that only booster duos/group sync queues can climb.

The crazy thing is, this is the most balanced it’s been all expansion!

Tbh it’s SO much closer now, ESPECIALLY healer balance.

I think rdruid still needs a mana buff, but ohter than that healing seems pretty good.

Bm needs a damage nerf, nothing else around that. Sp still too tanky relative to its damage, should really get a % nerf to both. Feral still too much damage and control, if maim isn’t going to get the kidney shot treatment then it could use a nerf to bleeds for sure.

The rest seems pretty solid except DH which is pretty lacking in damage.

Completely wrong. Things are so much worse now with all the bugs and buffs to classes that didn’t need them. Saying that things are fine except those classes is just ignoring the elephant in the room.

Several classes need to be looked at because they are just so far ahead of everyone else.

What is worse compared to the start of the expansion??

I think the only exception would be BM that got overbuffed from a hero talent rework.

Almost everything. When they’re buffing several classes that were already doing fine before that’s a sign of things getting worse.

I don’t keep sticky notes of every buff and nerf to all the classes if that’s what you’re asking for.

How do you figure?
In terms of melee dps Fury and unholy were egregious and got tuned down. Dh was unplayable and got buffs (although is still probably the worst melee), same with arms. Ret and enhance were significantly lacking in damage and had corresponding buffs to both damage and QoL. Rogues and ferals have been overperforming and have both gotten nerfs (although not enough for feral imo)

For ranged dps, hunters, aff locks, and frost mages were super overtuned and all got nerfs. Arcane, fire mage, demo, and boomy were all severely undertuned to being functionally unplayable and got buffs. Destro has had a lot of its damage reallocated to be more competitive, ele got a rework that made it more competitive (aside from the obviously broken bug that got fixed). Only class that got overbuffed IMO is SP which just got some nerfs (still needs more IMO).

The only healers were evoker and disc, which got nerfed. Rsham, mw, hpriest, and hpal were all unplayable and got significant buffs. Rdruid has also gotten buffs, but not to the same level.

This expansion isn’t where it should be yet, but has continually made small buffs and nerfs every week or two to get things closer and closer together.

I think the only “bad changes” on terms of buffs/nerfs were overbuffing SP and overnerfing unholy dk.

You know what, I barely played arena at the start of the xpac. Maybe things have gotten better. But if things were really that bad at the start then lol. Cause the game is completely unplayable right now.

It’s a bit funny to see you say things are fine, except this massive glaring problem. It’s like saying “global warming isn’t real because the weather is always changing, so let’s just ignore all this data that points to us contributing to it.”

You haven’t really provided examples of what is unplayable about the game, just saying that it is, while he has just been giving examples of some issues (none of which make the game unplayable).

Not sure what you’re adding to the conversation here.

Quick question, why you still here then if game “unplayable” for you?

What a stupid question.

Got it you have no answer and are (as usual) crying for nothing because you can’t find easy success, and because you can’t find easy success (like you have had in the past) you quickly jump to “game unplayable,” instead of self-reflection on why you’re not succeeding.
