What is integral to MM?

Probably for balance reasons.
Why remove pets altogether? Why not bake in lone wolf? Why not give hunters a blanket hero ability outside of pets?
All these lead me to are balancing reasons. Same reason they removed 2h frost for many years.
Freedom
Roar
Credibility matters. People who dont have credbility are generally clueless to what they are talking about. This thread is a prime example of it.
Because you tried to flex something thats not really flex worthy?
lol
AKA you cant refute facts
Been telling them balance reasons for two days. They just ignore it and continue to stomp their feet.
And yet, somehow, The reason of “We can’t balance it” didn’t pan out for The 2 handed frost. As it is back in the game. It’s just a lazy cop out.
And as Blizzard themselves put it, Hunters have pets. Marksmanship has gone too long without one, so now, you’re getting one back again.
If they shadowlands push this change thru, it’ll only be a matter of time until their hands are forced, again, to provide MM hunters their original pets. Just like Frost DK’s eventually got their 2 handers back.
History loves to repeat itself. Especially when people don’t learn from the past.

I have a solution to this… It’s going to BLOW_YOUR_MIND
Ready for it?
MAKE THOSE ONTO THE HUNTER TOO WITHOUT REMOVING THE ABILITY TO SUMMON A PET AS MM!
We all play the game to have fun. If people say “this will reduce my fun” it has equal credibility.
You want to remove a harmless choice. “oh but it has harm” remove the harm, keep the choice.
This is why healing priests can’t have a kick. If they could holy priest would be 100% pick rate.
Then you still have the aoe balance issues thats been a point for two days.
Fun is subjective and there fore not something you design around. The game is balance around group content whether you like it or not.
I have explained multiple times how there are issues caused by the pet. I am sorry you cant understand that.
Pretty sure they are like C tier atm
I’d rather gameplay go beyond just rp purposes.
You can’t if you want hero.
One of the reasons for the up coming changes.
It does.
We can see plenty of balancing problems now. Why do we want to add it it?
It took them 10 years to somewhat balance them, but one is still always better than the other lol.
And tbh they probably brought it back by popular demand, not even because they somewhat figured out balancing.
I don’t think your point hit how it wanted to.
Why keep it if it’s pointless fluff?
Lonewolf and pets absolutely affects your gameplay. This just tells me you know have any idea how mm functions.
And guess what I’ll be playing next patch.
MM.
You butted into the middle of a convo with others. Clearly wasn’t at you.
Try again.
Because they don’t have a kick! If they did, bet your bottom dollar Blizzard would have to nerf them from being OP. Holy priest just can’t be balanced with having a kick.
Blizzard’s motto ‘who cares if people have fun, we can’t balance the game anyways’

But it’s not an integral part of the spec.
It’s literally a warlock blueberry.
Everything but the pet lol.
At least survival, the pet participates in the rotation.
It’s interesting how other pet classes and specs can work just fine in AOE, but somehow it’s impossible to do that with MM.
Disc is literally S tier atm so not true at all.
You cant balance around “fun” because its subjective. Everyone in this thread has different things that make this game fun.
They balance around end game and group content gets the priority.
And spoilers, they still can’t balance it. It’s why I’ve been playing unholy lol.
Depends if it’s in demand. From what I can tell, it’s only a small handful that actually have a problem with pets being removed.
Name 1.
Also MM isnt a pet class

Also, fun is something they do take into consideration. A functional, but boring, class would be a failure in Blizzard’s eyes.

You cant balance around fun for 5 million people
Do you really need me to name the other pet classes and specs for you?

5 million people aren’t playing the Hunter class.
Also, providing options and choices allows them to please more people at the same time.
