Of course! You do the same with my criticism of your criticism.
Since when has swarm intelligence been considered a justified point of view? Since the Mandela Effect at the latest, we should refrain from doing so.
Of course do I understand the criticism and why people think a spec based analysis would be better, but Iâve obviously looked at it in detail whereas most tend to focus on the outcome and therefore fail to see the weaknesses of a spec based view.
See my reply to Nasrajin 2 posts above this!
Maybe, but you could simply play Demo which is doing really good right now, spend a day to learn the differences and have a great & viable spec to play, until they bring changes for Destro.
A Monk or DH on the other hand would need to reroll to another class, level it, gear it and learn it from a beginner level, to have a viable spec. So do you think it would be fair to spend more focus onto Lock (Destro) right now instead of the underperforming classes that have no alternative pick?
Why would I play demo when it shouldnât be a spec in pvp. You are still yet to tell me how WW is bad, you just say itâs âunderperformingâ when in reality it could just be because higher skill capped melee compared to ret/war/dk etc so obviously less people would pick it up or reroll.
When a class has low representation on high rating, despite decent popularity, there must be a reason for it.
Or are you trying to tell me that all WW suddenly have forgotten how to play, while Feral have become super skilled with TWW?
A class must be able to generate either very good burst or good CC chains or unhealable sustained damage (Fury). If it doesnât have either, it must at least have a great toolkit for the party (see Ret/Aug).
WW has none of that. The burst is like a wet noodle, CC is almost non-existent and it has no group-based peel/support to speak of. Every GCD does damage, but itâs extremely easy to heal and far away from the pressure of a Fury Warrior.
More realistically is, that you donât play at high ratings and the few WWs you are playing against on your MMR would usually play higher, when their class wouldnât perform so poorly.
Im not trolling at all bro, ww is fine. Why does it need buffs to become oppressive like bm is right now? Not everything needs buffing, sometimes stuff just needs bringing down. Destro is fine, Aff is fine, demo needs removing, etc etc.
WW is fine. Everyone wants to slam their head on the desk against frost mage, everyone loves being able to move their character 10% of its normal speed perma, all game.
From your subjective point of view, that may be the case, but objectively speaking, itâs an outright lie.
WW is barely playable alongside DK and DH the higher up the ladder you look.
And since the data was collected and analyzed absolutely objectively, there is no need for any further discussion. Of course it contradicts your gut feeling and your personal opinion from a warlockâs point of view, but perhaps you should interpret it from a different perspective to realize how biased you are!
Blizo is 2541 as WW. There is 17 WWâs higher than the top rated destro lock on EU.
Before buffing WW as itâs doing better than destro at the top of the ladder, we should buff destro because itâs struggling the higher up the ladder you look (which you didnât.)
Now me as a destro main, sitting there and telling you it doesnât need buffs because itâll be horrendous to play against is wild right.
ww need +50% fists of fury and like 20-30% RSK if not even more to be even comparable to other ms melees / hunters
the funny part is that +50% on fists of fury sounds a lot but you could probably even do +100% and the ticks would go to like 300-400k each from the current 150k. imagine if a destro warlocks chaos bolt hits for 150k or evis from sub does 150k this is exactly whats the problem with ww rn.
also all of wwâs damage is fake useless damage because ww has 0 tools to close out a game
WW is in 3s at 2.07 per 1000 while Destro is at 1.805 per 1000.
That might be a tiny bit ahead, but beside Warlock has two more similar specs, and one of it is just S tier, the result is falsified. And unlike Destro players, WW players canât just pick another DPS spec and play with it.
Finally, I made it clear that this is a class-based evaluation (look at the title) that shows which classes do not currently have a viable DPS spec
It therefore only shows what classes not have a single good DPS spec for PvP! Which specs of a class may be op or up if there are several similar specs (Lock, Mage, Warrior, âŚ) is not taken into account.
They donât have to be meta. Just average strong would already be good enough!
