Middle of the pack dps in M uldir begging for buffs all tier and when they finally get them, they’re back to EN levels of dps and won’t get nerfed for mythic tuning. As if deathknights already werent at a worse spot because of rogues/DH’s doing more damage, mobility, and utility, now we got these guys beating us.
Meanwhile, UH has had feedback ever since alpha saying that it plays like garbage and its ST numbers are off, and we get ignored?? Why would you buff a spec that was already performing better than us but then not buff us? This 20% dc change is a tier and 2 weeks over due, and it’s not gonna put us anywhere near close to middle of the pack. This is the third raid tier in less than 2 xpacs that UH is bottom of the barrel dps, two of the tiers being one after the other, the only difference is that NH had tier sets and was actually a fun raid.
And we were only that high because of the pad lord called Zul. If we go to Taloc, UH is DEAD LAST. This 20% to DC, while it’s a step in the right direction, is nowhere near enough to put us middle of the pack.
Ppl complaining about shadow being broken when they did horrible damage and now that they are top dogs its like they have been magicaly fixed even tho minimal changes hapenned to their rotation.
I guess we have to [Removed] how brokem our gameplay is so they just buff our number to make us happy. Sadly dps dks arent popular enough to make enough noise and draw devs attention.
Thematically one of the coolest classes in the game. It does suck to be so low on the PvE DPS ladder. I know what fixes I want to see and boost to death coil wasn’t one of them. I hope they build up our Undead General feel more.
no it isn’t, you aren’t playing it right if your damage is super low. if you take top level players and let them go balls to the wall on ST dps, unholy will fall behind other classes, but the damage it does output is significant. however, in an average raid with an average guild, an unholy dk can still top their dps charts. whining about unholy’s ST damage is like whining that your sports car only does 0-60 in 5 seconds instead of 4, you are missing the fact that you are still faster than 99% of all cars.
im gonna take a guess that you don’t do any content outside of raids or M+? unholy is beating healers into a pulp in pvp atm.
I noticed it was pretty awesome in pvp self heals were great, but yeah only really do pve with my dk.
But in terms of min maxing, the class has its downfall. Like I said does great in high mob count, but has a build up time. Compared to DH, and rogues.
I don’t agree that it plays like garbage, I happen to like the way UH plays atm. But I do agree that the ST damage needs a look at. Maybe Blizz designed the spec to be low ST/high cleave damage?
If we’re designed to have low st/high cleave, then why do demon hunters do High st and high cleave? The only thing Uh has going for it is high burst aoe dmg.
We do more consistent cleave damage. I routinely out dps Havoc DH’s over a longer period of time or over several pulls of trash. I agree that their burst AoE is unparalleled, but that is their niche. Ours takes a little more to setup and execute, but extends far passed a DH’s burst.
to be fair they are strong because of fight composition more than raw powah.
Its the reason why Spriest, Moonkin, Affliction Lock are Kings of this raid, when you design a 9 boss raid and 7 of the bosses promote spread Dot Cleave like Coven of Shivara in Antorus this is what you will end up with.
And in general i dont know of a DPS spec with worse traits than Frost and Unholy so we were bound to take a step back just due to the fact 5 ring azerite is not a big leap for us.
