Lets talk about PVP is there any hope or future for it?

What’s up BalancePK here and I think this is a long overdue post.

So i’m going to try to bring this up in the most constructive way but I’m genuinely curious what’s going on with pvp. From MMR deflation to class balance, lack of communication on the dev side which seems to have no insight or good news coming for war within.

My goal is to create a dialogue I’ve seen multiple videos going over class balance in particular DH, DK, and the amount off cc that people are able to put out it. Seems like you can just put out crowd control and get value instead of trying to setup/synergize with your teammates. Game has been out for awhile would love to see just a dialogue opened up because the game feels horrible and I just don’t understand how/why it’s getting no attention having the biggest pvp playerbase of any MMO?

My main asks are can we tune:
DH Class Design
Spammable cc that gets value without punishment (0risk/ high reward playstyle)
Class diversity in 2v2’s (not just hunter/healer or dh healer)
Balancing around dueling again feels like it’s become a dead space.
Defensive usage balancing amongst dps classes some having little options in comparison to others and no offensive pressure to trade for lack of defense.
(also healers being able to kill dps players with no response when trading cd’s or having a lack of self sustain)
Healers being unkillable in general.

Let’s talk about it.

Thanks for speaking up about PvP issues. I’m gonna leave this here, I took the time to organize everything wrong with Retail PvP as a whole and myself and a few others are working to try to get the Community Council involved in getting some of this stuff fixed, if you want to support changes for retail PvP please drop by and give us a hand whenever you can.

Would love to appreciate you reaching out!
