How can a 3% buff be so terrifying?
6 Likes
Maybe adding 18,000 more damage to the 600,000 damage Sniper Shot isnt super necessary. But I’m no Dev. I’m sure they have pvp balance as the goal.

won’t the 3% mm buff cancel out the cloth armor buffs?
and the fire mage buffs are just bait to get people to queue up as mage fodder for target practice lol

Holy priests must be the only class/spec working as intended. We never get buffs or nerfs.

it could have been a 0.00003% buff and people would still be upset. the issue is that the bg playerbase has been asking for MM to be nerfed for almost 4 seasons in a row now, a minor buff is blizzards way of giving us the middle finger without actually saying anything direct.

Or nerf the brainless melee cleaves like yourself first then you can nerf hunters. until then in every form of arena or pvp in general if you focus the hunter they cannot kite you and they die instantly especially if more than 1 melee are sitting them.
MM has problems in arena because arena has limited space and LoS to hide behind. there is nothing like that in an open field of a bg, and thats where the problem is.
People gonna re-roll fire mage and then drop it after a week when they realize it’s still a glass cannon just like MM.

Everyone but random bgs.
It’s by all objective measures in PvE and ranked PvP a garbage spec. It’s among the least played in literally all forms of the game blizzard actually cares about.
And being the least played spec on one of the most popular classes (that has a hated spec within its own class in sv)? That says just how bad it really is.
It’s just really good in uncoordinated play because of range, instant burst, and camo. Sniper shot helps it, but marks has always owned random bgs.

until you get to bgs where MM will be 15-25% of most team rosters sometimes even more. and you don’t even need that many, 2-3 coordinated hunters can just dominate a BG because there is 0 counterplay to having multiple hunters simultaneously hit you with snipershot from 75 yards away.
understand that most of the BG community was expecting to see a nerf to or even the removal of sniper shot all together, a buff to MM damage is blizz giving us the middle finger.
and while you might think it doesn’t matter, people will still play BGs when they don’t want to play arena because of inflation or class balance issues. and a lot more people play BGs than arena on a daily basis regardless of any variables.
