“…is not effected by any stat.”
It seems you did NOT know that. Duh.
Learn to read.
The reason we are getting the 10% nerf is because the bug fix itself is a buff “barbed shot is now affected by bestial wrath” obviously it wasn’t before which was messing with our dps so fixing this is basically the 10%. Please read the post slower and actually understand the logic coming from it instead of complaining about it on forums.
I wish people would do as you say, sadly they just see the forums as a tool to cry about everything.
When the change actually goes through. We’ll see complaints about it. Thats why im taking everything people are saying to under here to the chin and continuing enjoying the game like I usually do ![:laughing:](https://d38bqls1q93fod.cloudfront.net/en/wow/images/emoji/twitter/laughing.png?v=6" ":laughing:")

sorry little faith in activision, that they will fix something that has to do with dps especially hunter dps.
To answer those who are questioning why they change it if the overall damage is the same:
It does the same damage right now since bestial wrath uptime is approximately 40%. Later in the expansion when we have higher crit and get more barbed shot procs, bestial wrath will have an uptime higher than 40% and it will be a net buff.
What I would really like to see blizzard do is fix barbed shot so that it scales with crit and haste like every other bleed in the game.

It is not about damage but the way hunters receives changes. I was main survival ranged since lk and i rerolled to bm in legion but they keep changing all 3 specs in a style that i dont like anymore. I just gave up from hunter. trying to reroll to balance to no quit the game.

Hunters may have been the last to be developed, they were the first to be promoted when the Original Cinematic came out…it was the lone Dorf Hunter on the mountain top near IF with his bear companion that caught my interest and developed into a love affair with this class.

Advising new player who think hunters are the best is my life work. It not self hating when I’m spreading correct knowledge into the land.
I notice that your hunter is still a new pup so heed my warning and re-roll because if you continue on your current path I can say that you will go nowhere.

I enjoy my hunter. Been enjoying the class hunter the most since cata? Been too long.
Different people enjoy their favorite spec/class for various reasons… And it’s not necessarily dps numbers.
I am not stopping you from your crusade. However, who knows what’s going to happen to hunter in the future…despite the so called ‘reliable’ source of yours.
Even complain about people complaining. Weird.

It seems the code wasn’t working correctly. If they want to build on that code later, results could be affected negatively. It’s smarter in the long run to rectify problem code as it’s found so that you don’t build yourself a hornet’s nest that has to be dealt with later.

Barbed you can’t stack right? And it lasts 12 seconds. Bestial wrath lasts 18 seconds. So I guess in a perfect scenario you can get 1 and a half barbed shots in during BW.
barbed you most definitely stack. I don’t play the spec at all but I know you need to be aiming at 100% uptime on 2-3 stacks
Barbed Shot doesn’t stack but you only need to refresh it once to have it cover the duration of Bestial Wrath, so it’s pretty easy to make them fully overlap. Although I don’t know where you got those numbers from, Barbed Shot clearly lasts 8 seconds, and Bestial Wrath lasts 15 seconds.
No what stacks is Frenzy. The DoT from Barbed Shot does not stack.
