They literally nerfed the tier set in half for no reason. There is almost no point in going tier set… You get a 2 percent increase to wild fire bomb and a 5 percent increase to mongoose bite while wildfire bomb bleed is up? are you kidding me? This is not enough at all.
This must be a bug.
All hunter tier sets are TERRIBLE
Okay but do you give up any stats
Uh, aren’t most/all tier sets’ numerical bonuses still nerfed by 50% in PvP?
That’s why the best ones are typically the ones that provide procs/mechanics that aren’t nerfed.
all are nerfed by 50%. the only good ones change a class mechanic somehow. if any of your pieces lack versa or give crit then you just don’t want them.
You only take 2 set, head and shoulder anyway. Mastery/haste and mastery/verse.
Even if not nerfed by 50%, mongoose bite is such a low damage portion of sv at the moment it wouldn’t be worth taking all the crit anyway.

Cut all by 50% in PvP.
Don’t run 2 peice just wait until 4. U lose like 4% from it. It’s only a 2% for pve
For sv (can’t speak for other specs), only 2 is worth it. 4 has too much crap stats to take for the little benefit of like .2% damage.
I didn’t look at 4 peice, I’m not gonna run either, not worth imo. Losing 2% versa out weighs 2% more damage for a single ability
I’ll be going 2piece and thats it. not even going full. surv hunter here.
All tier sets are nerfed by 50% in pvp. Also, why do you think that tier set is bad, but ascension is good if they’re both ~1% dps?
I think that imgur is a bit off at least with the sv tier (don’t know enough of any others).
Bicmex did some rough math that it’s more of a .2% increase since mongoose bite is such a small percentage of current damage.
I didn’t play SV last xpac wasn’t the tier horrible until like last month of season?
It got unnerfed a bit I think towards the end. S4 was the s1 one which iirc wasn’t great.
S3 was pretty fun by adding eagle in to your burst.
which of those bonuses is a 1% bonus to overall dps? wildfire bomb would have to be 50% of your damage to be 1% increase. then if you want 4 piece you gain crit which is a loss as points are going into the nether.
it’s a bad tier set. and ascension is also dookie.
those are pve numbers tho… pretty irrelevant in pvp imo.
rogue tier sets are increasing abilities by 20 percent in pvp. UH dk by 4 percent. Others by much more and we get 2 percent on an AOE ability.
The embellishments as they stand are stupid as they do not give you any sort of options other than the weapon embelishments. You have to chose that because they are optimal. Why should it be optimal not to take tier in this scenario?
This is quite the thread.
Eh, surv doesn’t really have a crap stat. There just isn’t enough critt to make it worth it.
the focusing lens is higher ST in encounters below 5 minutes, wdym?
Why? Show me the math. All the shadeweaves are stronger with 75%+ uptime and the focusing lens is more ST dps below 5 minutes and any time you ever drop combat.
You don’t have any data to support your opinion, you just have these doomsayer thoughts that are objectively wrong.
