Community General Discussion

Hello everyone, my friends and I have been debating on what the least played spec is in Dragonflight so far. Any opinions on what it could be ?

2

If you go by Mythic+ numbers, the least played spec is Survival Hunters followed closely by Assassination Rogues.

Probably affliction warlock. Seems like all the locks are playing demo or destro at least in pve. Not too sure about pvp. Maybe enh shammies in pvp

I probably see survival hunters, ret paladins and assassination rogues the least. DPS druids are also fairly scarce.

A tie between Elemental Shaman and Brewmaster Monk.

TBH SV hunter is respectable when played right, I think the reason it isn’t played much is two-fold:

  1. If you’re a hunter, you might as well be BM or MM
  2. The hunter class defensives make more sense for a ranged spec. Survival doesn’t lack damage output, but it does lack…well…survival.

Yeah. Survival is the lowest, Affliciton is next, and Assassination is the 3rd lowest.

Just going off the DF season 1 numbers in the chart I linked, there are 437,039 unique affliction warlock characters that have done M+ runs, and 599,693 Assassination rogues runs.

I’m going to have to agree with Elemental shaman. I think in all the pvp I’ve been doing, mostly epic BGS, and LFR, I haven’t spotted an Ele shaman on either team or in the raid group. They’re always resto or enh.

The runs are irrelevant, there are literally more affliction warlocks doing those runs lol.

Oh the irony

That chart counts every completed run that has taken place in season 1. I’m not sure how you can say that there are more warlocks when I provided reliable data that disproves that.

Also, I set it up so each character is only counted once total and not once per run.
