You are running out of time. Your game is as imbalanced as they come. PvP is unplayable for most classes. There is almost zero counterplay in the game right now. You are going to experience dramatic player fall-offs here in short order if you do not reel this in, quickly.
Spriest and Hunter need DRAMATIC nerfs. From there, you need to institute a 30% PvP damage reduction, across the board as well as a 10% overall healing reduction.
People will be leaving soon. Half of my PvP guild is gone. You have until the OTK tournament in early March to fix this, or hundreds of thousands of people are going to see how bad this game is, the commentators will be commenting on how little room for skill there is, and the falloff will truly begin.
Addendum: The current state of the STV event is completely unacceptable. This event is actually unplayable after the morning hours on Crusader Strike. You are constantly layered and the lag is overwhelming. I was layered twice in one day WHILE looting the arena chest. (I was then NOT looting the chest and then killed by a brand new, not-there-before, group of players.)

PvP is unplayable for most classes.
Healers are completely ineffective in this game mode, particularly HoT healers
What game you playing? lmao

This isn’t controversial. It is widely accepted in the PvP community.

If by 30% you mean 30% on certain abilities and runes, yes. If you mean 30% for EVERYTHING, no. Burst classes will suffer and healing will be obnoxious. Just imagine healers with that 30% damage reduction. Priests can survive this naxx level burst at level 40, even after a nerf. It would be worse than phase 1.
TLDR: just nerf the piss out of the runes that are overtuned and stop with the “make everyone op” shenanigans. No one wants this, we just want meme specs to be viable.

SOD was doomed before it launched. Lowest effort and most anti Classic trailer anyone couldve expected.
Normal fresh please. No layers, chronoboon or free rank 14 system though.

For reasonable PvP, yes. My entire guild plays this just for PvP.
And again, half are gone already.

Open World PvP is all Classic is about. Everything else is just a side activity to get stuff for Open World PvP.
Yea, cramping the game full of Retail abilities doesnt work. I couldve told you that months before SOD even launched.

Melee hunter might need a nerf, but i dont think regular hunter is all that crazy
