You rock man, and let everyone on the team know they rock for this decision. I’ve had a ton of fun with this as ret.

If you are nerfing melee hunters, please buff ranged. All hunter specs will be underperforming now.

Will this include Insect Swarm next phase?

Really nice QOL for Moonkins btw, thank you. That instant HT is going to be really nice basically eveywhere now that you don’t have to spend an extra GCD on it and expose your soft body to the world every time you activate it

Good walk back.

What if Art of War had a second way to proc aside from just crit?

It could have a percentage chance proc rate on all holy damage. So that SoM weapon procs would have like a 10% chance to proc art of war baseline, or something. (workshop the actual numbers of course).

Or just change art of war so that it procs on crits from weapon strikes AND seal procs in the tooltip, then it wouldn’t be a bug and you can keep it in the game as is?

we eating good tonight

Hunter

  • Dual Wield Specialization no longer grants a 30% damage bonus to Raptor Strike for wielding two weapons of the same type.

Why… Why cant I just be the good class for once. I get to be OP for one week Warrior gets to be OP for years Rogues get to be OP for years looking at these changes its just constant BS for hunter’s literally now what so we are just gonna move back around have all casters be at top dps again. I mean people complained about warriors for YEARS in classic era and nothing was done. this change is too much…

The normalized damage was fair. Good players still kill me as a hunter. everyone has a greater one shot then me again. This just feels a little excessive.

When i think of hunters I think more like Rexxar an awesome character…
I’ve been reduced again to a class that no one wants to bring.

I am your only sole dps class this is unnecessary. I literally have no other job then do big damage and your taking it from me making my class more useless by the time 60 gets here. its a huge nerf to do this.

your completely removing the damage boost instead of reducing and this makes no sense

I have one move I use for survival and you completely nerfed it at least give me something different to add like you did for druids

its not a murder just balance, it was broken, even with 30% it will still be busted.

No its not, hunters are fine and you know nothing about numbers and other classes. Its the same cry when they nerfed boomy and spriest, they are still great.

Awesome, thanks for considering our feedback. Looking forward to seeing what comes next. I do have one related question - I understand weapon procs won’t proc Martyrdom anymore, but will Martyrdom hits still proc weapon procs, the same way Seal of Righteousness/Command hits do?

If you scroll up I break it down a little Kni, don’t get so defensive.

Rogue reroll but warrior player that has awful takes seem to be dime a dozen. It matters, this is still majorly classic and people don’t forget years of imbalance. You think hybrid tax shouldn’t exist that shows how little your opinion matters.

Frost mage is not a class

Mage is a class

Mage is 2nd highest DPS class at the moment, behind the absurd & soon to be nerfed melee hunters

Top of warcraft logs doesn’t matter, it’s not the real game, those parsers are people getting multiple PIs in quick fights. If you play the real game melee hunter will top the dps 99% of the time in a raid where bosses have a ridiculous amount of armor.

Fire mage is #1 in DPS Ayos. check warcraftlogs

I have a problem with the change being reverted by the person it stands to benefit which would be the dev playing the paladin class.

Also, if you looked at statistics for 95th percentile you would see that ret is actually still ahead of both ranged hunter and frost mage. While also having a very good tank and decent healer spec to fall back on.

What are you even saying, “it’s not the real game”??? ooof
