So they buffed WW by stupid proportions

Meanwhile, affliction got zero…zero changes. Im just about done with these people. Im just about done.

Agreed to see them target the specific issues wrong with monks single target and then just sit and ignore affs single target problems is very frustrating.

They cannot and are not capable of letting this spec be good, all around. It was fine in Pandaria, even good. They screwed it up like they always screw this spec up. Changes for the sake of changes. More sludge and clutter that just makes the spec overly complicated and overly dependent on gimmicks like MR. Im sick of it. So sick of it.

More issues caused by lack of developers playing their own game

They buffed WW single target only.
Afflictions ST > WW ST

Affliction is literally ONE spot above you. But you got 30 and 40% buffs on several abilities. Affliction got zero. Heroic Jailer, single target fights.

On Anduin, WW is above Affliction.

That’s what you want to look at. There’s your single target damage

And on Anduin:

But since Destruction is all the craze right now, and they’re doing worse off than WW on the Jailer, does that mean we need to throw a fit and start asking for buffs for Destruction Warlocks?

They explained why they gave the buffs they did.

Well its still showing affliction down at bottom, right there with WW. So why is affliction getting nothing? Zero? Nada?

Because affliction isn’t struggling as much as WW

Its dead last.

No one uses mythic raids as a true metric since only the best of the best ever complete it. Heroic is the standard. And Affliction is dead last.

Everyone uses Mythic. Because that shows the true potential of the classes. You being able to access that potential is not a game/design flaw

No they dont. Its not the true metric of representation for the majority of players. Mythic has NEVER been the standard.

We’re not discussing representations.

We’re discussing class strength. In which Mystic represents that.

It’s not Blizzards fault that the majority of the player base is average at best and unable to bring out the full potential of their classes.

If you haven’t noticed, Warlock has 2 other well performing dps specs right now. Blizzard is always less likely to buff underperforming specs on pure dps classes as long as there is another one that is doing well. WW got buffed because monks have no other dps specs to choose from, anyone playing aff warlock is trolling when destro and demo are both top tier right now.
