Its hard to get the full picture but I’m worried that the current thought process is:
make covenant legendarys that boost outlier covenants and the ones that aren’t good can just use the best legendary for the class as usual. For example the venthyr paladin one has to beat mad paragon which is really tough competition.
This means they can low key tune the others to break, but it seems really short sighted because even if they make a necrolord paladin legendary that is theoretically the best legendary for paladin but you have to go necrolord, which it currently isn’t to my knowledge, you just end up with a even bigger divide between covenant focuses. You still have venthyr holy outdpsing ret during cooldowns, you still have kyrian for actually healing. Necrolord enters some sustain build thing. And suddenly paladins are pressured to go night fae off prog for logs because night fae is noticable with the legendary or somesuch.
Similarly conduit energy is worrisome since it hasn’t been talked about but conduits are
A. Getting stronger and scalling harder.
B. Getting more slots but no extra energy.
Which will lead to some classes having to change up to 3 potency conduits from their bis soulbind because each conduit is now more valuable. And its incredibly likely we are getting new conduits soon, it only makes sense when they added extra potency conduits to trees. I want to say there is no way that they are done with that, and I believe it, but it is very worrisome to see souldbinds/conduits in their current state and have blizzard say its not a problem while they double down on adding pressure to the cracks in that system.
