Please nerf shamans they have been way too strong every phase… I can one shot almost anyone i see it’s not fair at all. I’m in greens and able to take on multiple people at once that are fully geared.

They don’t have the spine to stand up to players and tell them their class is too powerful and needs a nerf.
Every class across the board could use a solid 20-30% nerf just as a starting point. We’re all way too powerful (except rets lmao). PVP at 60 is going to be another one shot fiesta, and it’ll just get worse.
And of course shamans become ever more powerful. That’s why I have one now.

I see no excuse to not have a shaman.
It’s very strong and brings a ton of utility.

You would be better served making your point without resorting to blatant hyperbolic nonsense.

I thought the first DR testing was very good. No one died in secs.
They need to buff Mages, Wars and even though I hate to say it Locks (but remove the life drain dot, put it back on a channel spell).
Shaman, Boomkins, Rogues, Rets and Hunters are in great spots. Buff everyone else up. =)
What did they even buff on shaman? All i saw was burn nerf, mental dex nerf, defense scaling nerf, not removing rockbiter nerf, nerf, nerf, nerf…
Whats this thread even about?
Lets pretend you didn’t see new storm, earth and fire rune and t1 ele set bonus.

New runes arent “buffs”. Every class has new runes. Every class has t1 set bonuses.
New runes are buffs when the nerfs they did get are paltry by comparison and the rune doesn’t compete with existing great runes in a noticeable way.

No, you cant.
No, you arent.
You mean the one that has already been nerfed?

Can be talking about any class. I’m sure we are referring to warriors, or paladins now?
Making the burn rune less powerful at 60 than it is now at 50, nerfing mental dex and healing so that enhance are glass cannons, our new rune already nerfed before it goes live.
Ya…paltry.
We legitimately can’t because nothing is on the level that shamans are.

You should get a perma ban for lying/trolling in such a ignorant way.

heh i think shaman will be fine after seeing the nerfs to the new runes and seeing the buffs to other classes.
then again i look more at overall balance instead of whatever it is you guys seem to look at so whatever.
We have 3 phases of “overall balance”. That is what people are looking at. If you wanted to only look at 60, a band that doesnt currently exist and just ignore the entire life span of SoD thus far, just say that, but don’t claim you look at the overall balance when you’re one of those “just wait and see” types.
I don’t hate shamans, I just don’t want any one class head and shoulders above the rest. Seeing warriors overtake everything else in classic because they are the only ones who decently scale wasn’t good either. You can have a spec that is above the rest without it completely gapping everything else, or in warriors case in every other version of classic, being so good that your raid was grievously class stacking them.
And if they ARE going to be gapping everyone else, they should be like warriors and be on both factions. You don’t even have to put Draenei in the game, just give it to dwarves like they are in Cataclysm, and give tauren paladin to even class disparity, also like it is in cataclysm. That way both factions have every class as we KNOW there were dwarf shamans and tauren paladins in vanilla (as npcs), and you dont have to add expansion races into the game if thats some kind of deal breaker for you.
Ironically, you COULD add blood elves into classic as quel’thalas was supposed to be ingame in vanilla before being cut for TBC (the zone even still exists behind uninstanced stratholme complete with a zone name change, and the events that caused the high elves under KT to become blood elves happened in WC3, and the Draenei entered Azeroth arguably before, because the broken that exist in places like the Swamp of Sorrows are Draenei after all. They are the only expansion races to have existed on Azeroth during the events of Vanilla and could realistically fit there. Every other race came later in the canonical timeline, as:
Worgen were still feral inside Gil’neas
Goblins had Kezan and only joined with the horde because the horde saved them
All the allied races were still in their respective subfactions with no exposure to us
Drakthyr were still frozen
Pandaren were still hidden by the Emperor’s Mist.
Dont even have to use unique assets for dwarves either, as we already have their version of totems in Cata. Just input and use the same model there.
