[Biebz-sargeras]

[Robbo-tichondrius]

6% ww dam increase, we’ll take it. (ty for underperforming in raid and m+ ww)

mw nerfs =/

no brew buffs??? =///

[Raïsin-moon-guard]

These new changes is some of the most backward logic thinking I’ve ever seen Blizzard do.

Honestly impressive.

[Vethosis-illidan]

Great nerfs for caster MW they were definitely plaguing the ladder!

[Dwarfmonk-tichondrius]

Most of these don’t make sense lol.

They buffed ele 4pc? They buffed destro 4pc?

How come only MW got defensive buffs reverted and not WW. Also WW didn’t need 6% dmg in pvp (does need help in pve). I mean nerfing MW defensives hurts fistweaver more than castweaver at least I guess.

[Franquitó-illidan]

Wait… ele got buffed? Youre kidding…

[Amyrii-echo-isles]

They actually nerfed resto druid mastery. They must be listening to my ideas

Most of these don’t make sense lol.

I was going to do it but got distracted lol thank you sir.

[Dwarfmonk-tichondrius]

How did unholy assault not get touched? How did destro not see even minor nerfs let alone a 50% increase to their tier flame rift? Deva even more damage buffs continuing the trend of just buffing a specs damage until its unhealable to make it viable.

another 5% nothing nerf to sub rogue, Ele 4pc buffed for no reason, Blizzard is straight trolling at this point.

[Taekwonduwu-moon-guard]

Every change they make shows how out of touch they are

[Kanakunjin-azralon]

I just hope MS replaces these developers because they look like they are high

[Haunting-nerzhul]

@Vethosis-illidan

Great nerfs for caster MW they were definitely plaguing the ladder!

good, caster mw is giga cringe

[Robbo-tichondrius]

@Dwarfmonk-tichondrius

Also WW didn’t need 6% dmg in pvp

quietly delete this for me brotha man

[Wippy-elune]

no feral survivability buffs wtf

[Poshelna-kelthuzad]

Why MW get all def nerfed ? Are they serious ? MW already squishy and now this. If this goes live not worth playing this god awful game.

[Kanakunjin-azralon]

What intrigues me is that DH certainly needed nerfs, but in my opinion, today, they are in a good spot. Returning to being A TIER at most.

While RETS after several nerfs from its rework is easily S tier always.

Mages need nerfs to their mobility and damage left alone they awsome surviability
Locks need damage nerfs
ELEs needs burst nerf
Enh doesn’t need buffs
UH-DK needs NERFS, not buffs

Just a few examples of how they are out of touch with reality

Caster meta all again
