You deleted Old Demonology to create demon hunters.
Modern Demonology doesn’t play like the old one.
Modern demon hunters don’t play like old Demonology
No spec plays like old Demonology.
Make the 3rd demon hunter spec play this way, you can excuse it with the fact that not every demon hunter swallows a "physically " impressive demon, some swallow the “caster demons”
BONUS REASON WHY: IN warcraft 3 demon hunter hero was a melee hero but when you went meta you became known for your ranged AoE splash damage( kind of like the slow shadow wave that used to crash on people in MoP demo)
That’s the thread, the fact this wasn’t done on demon hunters at launch when you effectively removed the playstyle from the game is wild.

I agree they should make a 3rd spec, but I think new demonology is closer to how it was supposed to be, back in classic and tbc before they added metamorphisis in wotlk. It’s more about pets imo, I kinda like how it is now compared to how it was in wotlk, but I can’t really speak about it because I didn’t play cata to legion
I’m all about a glaive cast that bursts into a million bats and eats the enemies faces off. Count me in.

Third spec should be another support spec. Damage mitigation with a bit of healing. Debuffs on mobs to transfer damage and return little heals. Defiler spec.
Ranged demon hunters have so much potential and could help the class as a whole.
HELL IN DEMON HUNTER LORE they’re all night elf and blood elf SORCERERS, ILLIDAN was a sorcerer, in the Illidan novel there’s even magical fights.
My only conflict with modern demonology is… it’s basically Affliction.
The only difference between modern Affliction and demo is demo dots are summons that you can see instead of just purple shadows popping on the target.
OH ALL YOUR DOTS ( DEMONS) ARE OUT USE THIS SPELL TO MAKE THEM HIT HARDER.

You make a good point I can’t argue with that. I don’t really like warlocks, they were fun to play in classic and tbc classic but after that nope
It makes it worse cause currently it’s summon a lot of demons then your tyrant comes out and absolutely shoots death balls so you get to see a really HUGE number but they’re nerfing "changing " demo so tyrant now buffs all the other demons damage… so now it spike will look like Affliction instead of different, love seeing a ton of tiny numbers… so fun
I like this idea and they can be support in a way too.
