wow blizzard why do you always over nerf. yes i agree mm hunters need to be nerfed but not by this much. i used to use a combo double tap - trueshot - aimed shot - sniper shot - killshot. that used to finish some players but could only do that every now and then due to cooldowns now this combo pretty much only takes off 15% - 20% of a players hp like wtf. pretty much garbage now. before ppl who dont play hunter jumps on this post saying QQ your not op anymore thats not what im annoyed about no class should be op we def needed some nerfs but to nerf us with aimed shot 10% dmg and double tap by 50% dmg and then again another 5% to aimed shot and arcane shot. thats way to much of a nerf.
We can still 100-0 people, just not with aimed anymore. Now you want to use double tap on rapid fire, in combination with exp shot it still wrecks people. Just over 1.8 sec instead of instantly.
I do agree the needs seem a bit over the top. The recent 5 percent is just pointless. As explained above we don’t even burst with Aimed and arcane anymore, this nerf did nothing for our opener burst. All it did is just nerf our sustain damage, which didn’t need a nerf.

The pelagos nerf is what should’ve been done first and would’ve had the biggest effect on both MM and Sub rogue. Now we have that, 15% off aimed shot, 5% off arcane and a nerfed double tap. Reverting the 10% off aimed shot in pvp would put MM in a perfectly balanced spot IMO. But of course, like every expansion, Blizzard will nerf MM to the ground due to good early performance and then it’ll be a meme BG spec for an entire expansion.

At least this time they isolated most of the nerfs to PvP.
5% nerf to Aimed and Arcane doesn’t really hurt us much in PvE, and we were up near the top on ST.
Regardless aimed shot arcane shot are our bread and butter. Nerfs to those skills are big hits to the class.
Personally im rerolling for pvp. The class was only good because of its damage and Its already easy as hell to shut down. Love the hunter class fantasy, but all the specs are trash in pvp and marks feels so clunky and slow it just feels pointless.
yep exactly like they did Bm in BFA they had two good weeks then 3 years of being garbage
some of us couldnt careless about that pve crap but thats what blizz balances off of
BFA from prepatch was dominated by double tap one shots, then came the early nerfs. Kind of expected the repeat.
