"it's just pre patch"

“it’s just pre patch”… is what you hear. It’s a cop out; it’s lame.
Routinely getting hit for a 1/3rd of hp from non crits is no fun. And this is how it is every xpac, melee and hunter burst is crazy and it doesn’t change much when everyone hit’s max level. “Scaling” fixes after a major patch or 2…

And like it has to be this way? I don’t buy it.

Dumb. Sorry for the qq… but seriously dumb.

You have to deal with this for four more days. The game isn’t balanced around non-max level content. Just how it is.

its just the excuse du jour. Next week they’ll have another reason we should be thankful that the game is so buggy and imballanced

People said it at the start of bfa prepatch also, bfa was one of the most balanced games with constant tuning all the time to make sure we didn’t have issues.

Maybe if we weren’t getting a new borrowed system every year we wouldn’t have so many balance and performance issues.

Ok let’s rephrase it

You’re playing characters balanced for lvl 60, at lvl 50

These characters also have BiS armor for lvl 50, along with azerite traits AND essences. Both of which they won’t have at 60

You’re playing against fully geared twinks right now. That’s the reason the damage is so broken

So at 60 we won’t have any issues?

Not like this.

You have to remember we’re also like 6 raid tiers into BFA. Shadowlands we’ll be back at square one, where everyone has like 10% haste and barely any other stats

The end of expansions always have severe stat inflation

Considering the lack of balance in bfa, I believe you.

It always makes me laugh when people say how much better things will be in the future or that we should be grateful for a mediocre product.

I don’t expect perfection but when something is released by a major corporation you’d assume that it isn’t chock full of bugs or so imballanced that people want to pull their hair out.

Except maybe Boeing.

Depends on you

Impossible to predict how well you will play and what you define as any issues

Don’t worry it’s just shadowlands. Just wait 2 years and the next expac will fix it!

I won’t have any issues, nobody clicks out of their spell book as good as I do.

Don’t worry teamwork will soon be nerfed cuz we all know random bgs is really duels

It’s not “it’s just pre-patch”. It’s “it’s the pre-patch”. The reality is that pre-patches are an eclectic mix of systems from two different expansions. Trying to balance the two patches together would require manpower, and all the manpower right now is more than likely behind trying to release the expansion on the week of Thanksgiving. Even and especially if you don’t believe Shadowlands will be balanced, what good do you think will come out of them wasting manpower to balance the game around mechanics and levels that will be irrelevant in 4 days?

And then people will say, “It’s just the first week. It’s just the first month. It’s just the first season. Etc.”

Ive said the same thing myself.
Dont swear at anyone ingame tho, coz then you get muted for days.
Honestly, who cares anymore, the game is nonsense.

The point being: if it was going to be so silly, why have it? Its just dumb.

But here we are, a week in… level 60 BGs aren’t much different if I may opine
