The biggest issue with this game is lack of range DPS

You’re standing a little too far for me to hear you. Come closer.

Not the biggest, but more would be nice.

its not the worst imbalance, but when all three classes they’ve added to the game after vanilla have been melee, kinda lame…

Every guild is looking for them. Coincidence? I think not

yup, biggest issue with the game :eyes:

You’re right there’s an abundant of melee dps because M+ is the easiest way to gear and blizzard will add a melee dps every class but never add ranged.

They’ll also delete ranged specs like survival hunter and make semi ranged specs like enhance to strict melee

9

So Nomi should be a DPS class?

(Terrible joke based on the multiple meanings of “range”)

We need more ranged like BM.

Instead we get specs like Arcane where I have to choose between Shimmer and mobile evocation/missiles when I could just be BM or Havoc.

11

There’s a clear lack of ranged plate wearing DPS. Therefore, we should get one.

12

would have been an even 12 melee and 12 ranged, but Blizzard decided that wasn’t good and destroyed the Survival spec by making it melee. we should have a rogue spec like assassination become pure ranged to compensate.

This would actually be cool and I would support a ranged stealth assassin (although it would be overpowered in pvp in every way and I would be playing it for sure). But I meant range dps players not range dps specs

M+ isn’t very friendly to range at all, so that doesn’t help

15

Range DPS get the tank treatment in reverse.

Yeah, we want you for raids but get out of my M+ group unless your spec name starts with F and ends in ire or your spec is ranged but you don’t have a cast bar

Tanks heavily desired for m+ but only 2 tank spots for the raid

Or they could add something like Tinkers.

They’d have 1 ranged DPS spec for sure. And a Tank spec.

17

not before they nerf DH and balance their existing classes

18

Aren’t DH getting mortal strike debuff in shadowlands? Because blizzard realized there was a piece of utility they forgot to give them the first time around

Those two things aren’t exclusive… at all.

They never will be nor have they ever been.

Blizzards gameplay directors would come up with, and push a new class.

The Balance team works on balance. If the gameplay directors want to make a new class, then they will.

The bazillion hunters must all be in my guild.

The game has inadvertently moved away from caster DPS. The original trade off for ranged damage was self rooting cast times. Which was fine until this became a massive multiplayer run out of the circles game.
