Title basically says it all. While I understand the intent of nerfing traits that are disproportionately stronger than other options, most of the specs that received these nerfs are already in the bottom half of logs for BoD & didn’t receive any positive changes to offset the loss in performance.
5 of the 12 lowest performing specs received nerfs to the traits that were, in most cases, the spec’s best trait. Given that there are 24 DPS specs, this would mean they are already in the bottom half of performance. If we kick up one additional spot, it becomes 6 of the lowest 13.
Meanwhile, only 2 of the specs above that line had any nerfs & 1 (Balance Druid) had a buff! Why would you nerf already under-performing specs without any offsetting bonuses?
I would really like to hear the logic behind these changes.
