WW Monks have fallen to the 8th most represented spec on the ladder in 3v3, down from their highest of 6th.
Arms warriors are now the 2nd most represented, behind only holy paladin. Disc has fallen to 3rd.
But yeah… Nerf monks instead of all the classes ahead of them with more burst and better tool kits.
Arms, Fire, Shadow, Sub, Ret are all stronger than WW.
Balance druid is gaining on and will soon pass monks dropping them to 9th.
It feels like WWs are the new BFA Havocs where a bunch of people cry about them but there’s like 2 of them on the actual ladder.
They seem to be a huge problem in the 1800s where people stack for their fists, but the top players know they can just die in a stun and do that.

These posts are just silly.
WW is on the same tier as Arms, and Ret; S Tier.
Monks in general are the least played class in the game so ofc they’re not high repped on the ladder.
Using ladder rep is a bad argument for what classes are strong vs weak, there are a lot of warrior players (it’s the most popular class in the game) in comparison to monk.

Post a screen shot of a monk 100-0 someone in arena in a global. Rets and warriors both can do it. Yes, Monks have high sustained damage, but not that 1 shot burst.
There is no way ww burst is higher than ret burst
Lol they can, you’re in denial.
Maybe not quite as high, I’ll give you that but it’s up there.
Oh, WW doesn’t have burst? How about a 28k hp ww topping meters at 2600? The class is just straight broken, and everyone knows it.

Warriors are even more oppressive. At least monks take damage. Warriors are immortal and pve you to death
please show me which ability on a monk can hit back to back 15ks like a rets TV pls. screenshot too
Nobody is arguing warriors aren’t oppressive are broken because of condemn damage and intervene.
WWs damage is just as bad with CDs popped.
Go watch that video with Pika.
Look at all these low level alts/classic posters attacking me lol, just post on your mains my god.

that’s not a screenshot. i didnt ask to be told to go google it. I asked you to back up your claim
Again, go watch the video.
Again, show me where a monk can pop out a 15k hit from an ability.
You’re in complete denial if you don’t think WW cds are as oppressive as rets.
Maybe they can’t hit a 15k TV but they can burst you down with a lot of little damage in seconds.
Exactly. they dont have the burst to global someone in 1-2 hits even with cds.
I get what you’re saying and yes their damage is insanely high but as a hunter I always feel like I could have done something better to win the game. I can’t say the same thing for warriors, that’s my point.
They burst them just as quickly with a lot of little damage, that is my point.
It’s just as oppressive.
Warriors have always been extremely oppressive vs hunters, besides maybe s3 of Legion.
But yes, I agree with you we need some nerfs.
Condemn and intervene needs to be looked at.

That priest didn’t fear any of the monk pets and reacted slow with defensives.
That rogue stacked on his healer for full monk burst and got cleaved for a ****ton for no reason.
Not to mention That rogue knocked that monk from 100 to 10 percent completely solo in less than 4 seconds… forcing trinket and every defensive cd from the monk…

Luckily against a monk, you have more time to take more than 2 steps before dropping rather than some other DPS. ALL dps is oppressive right now.
Regardless, my point was that WW is up on the same tier as Arms/Ret.
Ladder representation is a bad way to dictate what classes are OP vs what aren’t, monks are under populated class to begin with.
