Funny how you try to pivot to a mechanical argument when we’re talking about thematic design. 
Somehow I don’t believe you.
I’ve been playing Hunter every single day. I’ve played all three specs and discovered the rhythm, the flaws, and what could be improved.
- Did you know that the Time-To-Kill for a single elite enemy in the overworld for BM Hunter was ~49sec (without Bestial Wrath), whereas with Survival (without Takedown) and Marksmanship (without Trueshot) it was around ~25sec?
- And now they announced that they are buffing the spec outside of Bestial Wrath windows.
- Do you think this was suggested solely by players who fulfilled your ‘bare minimum’ standard?
- Keep in mind: I haven’t done Mythic 0 or Normal Raiding this season, and I was one of the players advocating for improved damage outside of said Bestial Wrath windows.
Me thinks you are just making up standards now.
