Specs are no longer being worked on, they are now using extra xpac only talent trees to fix things.
Conduits may also do nothing to help broken classes and only throw some extra numbers on to make it look like they fixed things.
āWe changed ability X from doing 200 damage + 100 damage over 10 seconds to doing 180 damage + 120 damage over 10 seconds! We fixed the ability!ā
No, you just juggled numbers, the end result is still 300 damage over 10 seconds, with the majority of it frontloaded.
None of which are about Guardian Druid, which was what the OP was specifically talking about.
But I guess you canāt be bothered to actually read anything, youāre just too busy trying to prove how much smarter you are than everyone else, right?
The Guardian feedback dates from the beginning of alpha, they werenāt even working on it back then.
I think a lot of it has to do with their mindset about Wow and how complacent the playerbase is.
I cant wait for 9.3 when this will all gets fixed or is so busted that it wont matter since itll be the final big patch of the expansion and 10.0 alpha will start soon after.
The Beta isnāt for US to test. Blizz is inviting specific people at specific times to concrete what they already have in place. Itās obvious by the way they are inviting people to the beta. Itās 100% controlled and directed towards the outcome they want.
OMG THE GAME IS CHANGING AHHHHHHHH!
And Blizzard will abandon the current state of the game for the greener pastures and the playerbase will be excited to get on that hamster wheel again now that itās green instead of blue.
The ONLY real argument you have is regarding Guardian Druids. Your other arguments are idiotic nonsense. Guardian Druids are literally the worst tank in the game and should get attention but claiming that Shadow Priests are bad shows how little you know about the game. The main complaint people have about Shadow is how it plays, either because they donāt like the lore regarding them getting their power from the Void or they want their precious combo points back. Shadow Priests are currently in a great spot, and have been since their rework in Legion, to the tune of being a top raiding/PvP spec and a mid-tier M+ spec.
Ironically, theres a world quest called The Cycle of Life.
It sure sounds like you havenāt spent any time in the priest discord. I understand the priest spec shadow is supposed to switch to is destro.
Literally 90% of the arguments are how they hate Void Form and want their combo points back. Numerically, Shadow Priest has been a top tier class for nearly all content for the last 2 expansions. I get it, you want to be a Rogue/Feral/WW that casts spells instead. Most of the issues with Shadow can be fixed by changing the way spells interact with one another. Nice try though.
Yes thatās why I brought up Spriests and them being ignored by Blizz on the beta forums. I never said anything about them being bad right now.
Youāre really on edge.
Look, itās ok. They will tell us that they have learned a lot after making the same mistakes⦠again, until they do it again and again and again and again.
They will then do it again, apologise, then tell us they have learned a lot⦠before they do it again.
Trust in Blizzard!
if only they could have known about spriest and guardian druids 2 years ago ⦠oh wait ⦠. . . ā¦
The funny thing is, there are people who love how Shadow Priests play. There are people who hate how it plays. Itās literally a matter of preference. Numbers-wise, they are amazing and have been for two expansions. Nearly every issue with Shadow Priest, from a gameplay perspective, can be fixed by changing how spells interact with each other/adjusting the CDs so things arenāt misaligned. Two very simple things. However, itās funny that you try to shoehorn idiotic preferences in with issues that are real like Guardians.
Itās EXACTLY the same as BFA alpha and beta.
At the moment it looks like the spec will be a complete disaster, again, come Shadowlands.
Iām sure they are learning from their past mistakes⦠lol
and as usual you are all doom and gloom for a game you pay to play.

Literally 90% of the arguments are how they hate Void Form and want their combo points back.
I see you havenāt been keeping up on beta testing.

Numerically, Shadow Priest has been a top tier class for nearly all content for the last 2 expansions.
Very situational. And when thereās a raid with a couple of spread multitarget fights, they get nerfed hard.

I get it, you want to be a Rogue/Feral/WW that casts spells instead.
Um, no? Actually I heal as disc. Havenāt done shadow since wod. My buddy the mythic shadow priest just let his sub run out and wonāt be back.
Beta testing is not looking good for shadow priests. And the āremove void formā thing is old news.
