8 Second Demonic Please

Can we at least have 2 more seconds as before?

Does it make a lot of difference?

I switched to momentum as soon as it became viable because I find it much more fun, so I’ve forgotten what demonic is like to play, but 2 seconds seems minimal.

It certainly does and it will probably matter much more since they are buffing the blade dance conduit. With that I also reckon that the new BiS legendary for demonic will be Darkglare Medallion ( Mythic + wise ) and 2 more seconds for demonic would help truly a lot.

Demonic should be baseline and meta cd should be 2 min.

You mean, you’re not getting 2 blade dance in the meta window? I did play demonic for a very short time earlier in the patch, and I was getting 2 in. I must have had more haste. As I understand it, haste has greater value for demonic than for momentum. (And assuming the blade dance conduit is dancing with fate (not 100% sure because I don’t play it), that was nerfed yesterday on the PTR, so there’s still a lot of uncertainty over what will be top performing.)

No thanks. Those of us who prefer momentum don’t want to be forced into demonic. And I’d like to see a shorter CD on meta, but 2 minutes would be ridiculously OP. Three minutes would align nicely with some tank CDs.

Demonic baseline and momentum talent, what is the problem? You would have both. And as for meta, look at the other classes and their cds that are even stronger. 2 min meta cd and 20 secs duration is more than fine.

I don’t want to be forced into demon form every time I cast eyebeam. I don’t put time and effort into making my character visually appealing just to spend most of my time looking at an ugly demon.

And why do you want another meta CD (and with a shorter duration that’s less useful) that doesn’t line up with tank CDs? Is it something to do with PvP?

Demonic should be baseline anyway.

And 8 sec duration.

Not baseline, and 8 seconds would be nice to make sure haste isn’t worth that much more. Haste is my main stat and I manage to squeeze in a second Death Sweep most of the time, but it feels bad to not press a button to make sure I’m not stuck in GCD.

Why on earth would you pick a demon hunter and not like demon form? :smiley:

In any case, gameplay should never suffer because transmog.

They could make a glyph, that’s the best option, where the demonic/meta transformation is less noticeable.

It’s supposed to be noticeable from a gameplay standpoint people need to know to avoid it or else you could obliterate someone and them have no idea you have your main CD activated.

Do the same thing as with the moonkin form glyph, noticeable, but not full demon.

Yeah that’s fair, maybe glow a vile green colour and ruin your transmog in a completely new way

Maybe I wanted to hunt demons rather than look like one?

I mean the ability has been there from the start hasn’t it?

Meta? Yes. But it’s 30 seconds every 4 minutes, unless you take demonic, which I can live with. And it is a fair point that it’s visible to other players (although maybe a glyph that hides the form unless you have PvP mode active would be nice).

The person I responded to wanted demonic to be baseline and last for 8 seconds, which would force us into meta for 8 seconds out of every 30. That’s what I was objecting to.

But it should be baseline.

They can just make a glyph.

The gameplay experience from a baseline demonic+appetite, would already be much better.

Only if it’s the kind of gameplay experience you personally enjoy. Which I don’t.

Yea, but you don’t enjoy it because oooh, i don’t wanna be a demon all the time, it hides my transmog, as a demon hunter, and when there is the alternative of a glyph.

Your argument is just kinda ridiculous.

In the end not everyone will like the playstile, but some people like boring playstiles where you spend a third of your time doing nothing, other enjoy having classes that have little to no depth at all, id say that we should try to make better than that.
