So I recently picked up DF and really wanted to play WoW again. It was fun, and I really enjoyed it, however, buffing warlocks to make their ST damage in line with other speccs, felt great. I was finally able to keep up with some melee classes that are too overtuned this expansion. Now, yesterday you guys tell us that since our ST damage is too high, your going to nerf our entire toolkit instead of ST spells. HOW DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE? 1 step forward 2 steps backwards, then get lasso’d and pulled back even further into a mud puddle why not.
Lastly, what ever came of the Onyx Annulet? So much for a new BiS item. This week, between grinding for a ring that wasnt ready for the game, and playing the classes I JUST had re-worked, only to have it all taken from me. Why would I sub to your un-organized game? When my sub runs out, i most likely wont re-sub, and as it is, the population of conccurent players on WoW has been dwindling FAST, and its made getting groups together much slower… its like "lets grab ethan, our hunter, oh no nvm he quit from double shot removal, ok lets grab our mage, oh no he quit cause priests have gone un-checked. Ok lets get our DH tank, oh sh*t he quit too cause warriors got all the love.
Reason #731 why I dont get attached to any class/spec in this game …ever again.
Paid $60 for a hunter boost before the leveling crunch and about week later they trashed hunter pets.
If you get used to a spec/class and start enjoying it rest assured nerfs are incoming.
Better to just not take anything about this game too seriously because when Ion breaks out the hammer and starts trashing stuff, its very likely gonna be something you liked.
Looking right at you Loot-a-rang.
I want to say youre right, but what about players like me, who would rather work to being a PHENOMONAL warlock, than chase FOTM buffs. I like Warlocks playstyle, I have played one since Cata, what Blizz is doing isnt even about whether locks are breaking damage meters or not, its more about them (Blizz) wasting my free time.
Good question, but while this game is run like it is, there likely isnt any answer you or I are going to like.
Every other week it seems there are more threads about Ion trashing a spec or a class in here.
Been going on since I started this game in 2017, so I assume its always been a thing and always will be a thing.
If we had any sense we’d find a balance for each spec and LEAVE it. Stop making changes. I dont want my abilities changed and removed and added every few weeks for god sake.
I dont want a rework every expansion or big patch.
I want BM hunter and Destruction Lock to be what they are and left alone.
But that aint gonna happen and we all know it.
so here we are.
Offline games sadly are the only way to get what you want and not have it being changed perpetually, Id think,
Offline games are so boring, but youre correct. Before WOTLK these quick knee jerk buffs/nerfs where never a thing. Blizz would make small adjustments, ya know, like they taught us in schools science class. Sh*t, with Ai these days, there is ABSOLUTELY no reason this game cannot be balanced. Just give that job to a computer to figure out.
There are 13 Classes and 26 specs. Some specs has to top and some has to be on bottom.
You are not a Mythic Raider, why worry about meta specs? Non-meta specs can achieve AoTC and KSM. You are just on that level. Why worry?
So, you expect the game to be organized for you? Warlock has to be Top 1 or the game would be garbage? Onyx Annulet ring is fine to many specs. If you dont like it, just pretend 10.0.7 didnt happen.
Funny how demo ain’t even that strong right now. You barely see any locks on the Raider.IO page, and have to search really deep to find the first one who actually plays demo.
Its unanimous that those nerfs are both heavy handed and unwarranted, to a class that ain’t even that strong.
