Please, please read and comprehend the post properly. WoTLK was not balanced around the existence of Dual Spec.
You mean by accurately pointing that despite whatever GC said hybrid dps was never kept behind pures after dual spec?
So do it again, in wrath.
So you are for all changes happening because some changes have happened?
Nope, because I’m capable of deciding for myself on a case by case basis what changes make sense and what don’t instead of blinding ranting #nochanges.

I will but BC could be better if people like me could do it now. More tanks and healers and more groups being formed.
When was Seal of the Martyr originally introduced?
This is the slippery slope in action. When you use previous changes to justify another change it hurts your argument.

What’s it wrath pre-patch?
Pretty sure dual spec was not till wrath actual was it? Don’t know, just curious.
Not sure what you mean. Please explain how previous changes mean further changes hurt the game.
Your denialism is unreal.
Q u o t e:
GC, you previously said that you would not be balancing around the existence of Dual-Spec. The situation you just described is exactly what those of us who play “pure” DPS classes feared the most with the announcement of this feature. Why bring a mage (or a rogue or a warlock) if you can bring a warrior or DK who does just as much DPS, but can flip to tanking at the drop of a hat?
"We didn’t design that around dual-spec. We assumed you’d probably have an OT who tried to do dps on Saph. Dual-spec gives them a way to do better dps.
This is one of the reasons though that we think it’s important to keep pure dps slightly elevated."

Wait, so an ability we have in TBC wasn’t introduced until Wrath?
What! You are capable of reaching independent conclusions based on the specific situation?
I don’t know, I was asking you since you seemed to know.
Also wrath pre-patch /= wrath. You could access pre-patch changes without buying wrath.
This is not what a slippery slope fallacy is.
Patch 3.0.2 was when Seal of the Martyr was first added.
Nice so we should start asking for everything else in the prepatch since it’s not technically Wrath, right?
Just asking you straight up if you wanna go this line of thinking. It’s your line of thinking.
Do you not realize you’re defeating your own argument with this?
Read the very next sentence. Denialism? You think GC contradicted himself that badly within the same post?
You’re not comprehending what he said.
I don’t even know, man, like he’s taking this quote which directly contradicts what he was saying and is now using it to say it somehow supports his earlier claim.
Not sure what kind of Jedi mind trick that is…
How so? It clearly shows encounters weren’t balanced around dual spec while stating Pure DPS classes would be balanced around doing more damage.
