Season 4 Balance Druid Tier Set Feedback

Blizzard dont give a damn? But blizzard let the players choose what tier set they wanted.

This is what was voted.

Can you stop taking up for the bait and switch ? The original tier set during the tier it was release was not this tier set. Do they pay you or something ? They need to fix it and stop being silent. JFC dude.

Iā€™m well aware of what it was. And they nerfed it and left it as is without reverting it even once S2 took over and the ilvl jump alone beat out the S1 tier set. When they put it up for vote, they never said anything about reverting the nerfs.

Quit trying to blame bait and switch because you lack critical thinking skills.

Quit taking up for their lack of doing anything about our class. We might as well not exist in raids or mythic+ or pvp right now. We are UNPLAYABLE in any high end content.

Itā€™s season 4 - no one is getting any special treatment - itā€™s all coming in TWW lol good lord. You throw tantrums over nothing more than my toddler

If instead you boycotted the game like the rest of us maybe we would be heardā€¦ and yea its the last season ā€¦ this is WoW for us for the next 6 months. Most will quit or swap mains.

Not sure why Iā€™d boycott. This is what the Balance Druids chose for a tier set. This has nothing to do with Blizzard. Iā€™m still enjoying the game. As for quitting or swapping mainsā€¦yeah, happens all the time. See you in 2 weeks for Remix.

Oh ā€¦ so only balance druids got to vote ā€¦ thatā€™s news too me. Anyone could have voted and griefed us which is what made the vote flawed in the first place.

Yeah, you got it. People hate Balance druids and went out of their way simply to spite you.

While iā€™m not saying non druids didnā€™t vote, the overall low count of total votes for Balance Druid in general seems to point at it not being a mass voting conspiracy.

Would you like a fancy tinfoil hat in the mean time?

so ridiculous the much higher item level S4 tier is worse than S3

They said they would TUNE IT. If it was 5% better than the current tier set noone would be complainingā€¦we are equipping a downgrade

Sure. 4 pieces at 500 ilvl while the rest of your gear is 486 ilvl, sure.

When youā€™re geared up, aka your average ilvl is 512+ it pulls ahead. Meaning it is tuned.

This isnā€™t the only spec that a equipping low level tier set asap results in a net loss. Gear up

Can you go and troll somewhere else? WCL speaks another language. Balance is floor and sims are clearly showing situations where it might be a slightly better option to run 4pc is full heroic upgrades. This is garbage. An upgrade should feel like an upgrade.

Itā€™s also not 486 vs 500 itā€™s 486 vs 522. Stop spreading nonsense

Come up with some numbers that prove your point or keep going to embarrass yourselfā€¦

Itā€™s so cringe to read through your arguments without you providing any proof

You mean that thread where I posted the guy with his 4pc simming more than he is currently doing and you and everyone else just so happened to stop replying because you couldnā€™t naysay with the evidence so apparent right there in front of you?

No, thatā€™s just having 4 items at 522ilvl, if you had the 4 piece at 522 and the rest of your gear at or above 500 instead of sitting back at 486 like youā€™re arguing around, it becomes an upgrade.

Go get gear outside of the tier set and stop complaining about nothing.

Also, please for the love of god, take a course on how to discern the information that WCL gives.

I remember when blizz removed gems, enchants and reforging so ā€œWhen you get an upgrade you can immediately equip itā€ā€¦ I miss that frame of mind

I had to add 111 total item levels to my Tier slots pieces to get a 400 DPS increase (with the new 4P). The new 2 and 4 set is garbage. Its a downgrade in every single way to how the class feels and plays. This should be unacceptable considering blizzard stated they would bring each classes tier set and power levels in line with everyone elseā€™s tier set.

Instead of a Forum vote, they should have just let us ā€˜voteā€™ through a token/vendor purchase. Give access to all three sets at the increased I-lvl and let individuals decide their play-style.

It would have meant balancing 3 sets, but it couldnā€™t be any worse than balancing 4 Covenants. There would be a mathematical winner, but player agency is never a bad thing and itā€™s a throw away season anyway.

Which equates to roughly 28 ilvls per slot. Like going from 486 to 512. In just those slots.

1But thatā€™s not how balance works. They donā€™t balance the class around acquiring your tier set at 493 ilvl where your total ilvl is still only 488. Just like they donā€™t balance raids around normal difficulty.

Balance is around about that 515-520 aggregated ilvl. You know, like you added 475 ilvls + tier set to your current character.

And while Balance Druid may not be the best of the best even at 522, itā€™s still going to be ahead of trying to hold onto your 3 piece and losing out on 10-12 ilvls overall.

Please learn how these things work before spouting off.

And here you are, the only one not bringing up any relatable source or fact which backs up your nonsense.

Any sim speaks against you. Itā€™s not an upgrade. Itā€™s laughable how bad you are at such basics

Again, i already posted sims of it being an upgrade and you very promptly quit replying because it tore your entire argument apart.

You not understanding how things work isnt my issue.

Edit: For clarification (since you seem to need it) - iā€™m not saying S4 tier is better than S3 tier. There was a reason I voted S3. What iā€™m saying is that once you gear up, trading in your tier set to S4 is no longer a DPS loss.
