BM Hunter Nerfs

  • Beast Mastery
    • Laceration damage reduced to 5% (was 15%).

    • Kill Command damage reduced by 20%.

    • Huntmaster’s Call Hati and Fenryr attack damage reduced by 33%.

    • Dire Beast damage reduced by 10%.

    • Pet Melee, Smack, and Stomp damage reduced by 10%.

    • Barbed Shot damage reduced by 25%.

    • An issue with Territorial Instincts summoning an extra pet when talented into Animal Companion has been fixed.

While we are waiting some decent nerfs for broken specs, they took some perfunctory nerfs yet BM got destroyed unexpectedly. Isn’t it total ruination? What do you think?

I don’t know how the BM looked in pvp early in pre patch but in m+ and especially in raids it was broken, BM hunters topping the meters even with worse gear and imperfect knowledge of their specs, like 525 ivl fury warrior with legendary being outpds-ed by 500 ilvl BM hunter, I myself (MM hunter) was outdps-ed by BM by 20-30%, despite always having been the highest DPS in my m+ groups throught season 4.

BM hunters were obviously overturned (at least in pve), though I do find the nerfs numbers a bit too drastic, they will probably have to do retuning again, after checking new metrics and getting angry cries from BM hunters.

These are Beta notes not Pre patch.
The balance on pre patch has nothing to do with beta.

Pre patch is not balanced because you are being balanced around having Hero talents and we are no longer actually max level.

Today further BM nerfs came in for PvP but some real strange on they nerfed Killshot for BM wich was rly week and you only press it if you dont have a killcommand and you want too apply your poisen

And the real questionmark there is they Buff Killshot for MM unnerfed racerblade and buffed it further in PVP ???

Ok you have killed BM nobady gonna play it in PvP stop hitting a dead body on the floor

Sv is strange too play with the rework thats make it a M+ specc and nerfed meele range

BM dead tuned and the clearly want you too play MM since it was bevor better then BM and stayed untouched and got a light pvp buff

No mention yet of the massive leech nerf from having a ferocity pet - down to 4% from 15%…

It’s just weird to me that they didn’t nerf the temporary set of s4 instead of the hunter itself, since that was the problem

It’s strange how hard they nerfed BM due to wonky numbers during pre patch now at lvl 80 the spec is practically dead.

We struggle to keep up with tanks in AOE let alone other DPS what a joke.

Blizz better get their stuff together before s1 actually starts because this is so stupid, BM is so weak that it’s struggling in open world

pretty hilarious, when it feels like a cunning pet now can take more dmg than feral one, due to the leech beeing abysmal.

I am actually going to change my Beast Master to Marksman soon because my Void Elf Marksman can melt enemies down, but I feel like I’m sitting there a long time with my Vulpera Beast Master.

It’s a pity though. But she’s my leather worker so I can’t dump her.

Why does Blizzard constantly ruin classes that are fun to play? BM is brilliant in terms of smooth gameplay, yet does potato DPS. Ret paladin is the same.

I REALLY hope blizz gets their shiz together, BMs AOE is dog water.

MM hero tree is jank and awful to deal with without a WA to track the internal CD of the stupid bird to avoid it spawning in a weird location.

SV for personal reasons, I will not touch with a 10-foot pole.

Hunter is in a such bad place that I don’t even feel like playing the game anymore.

Alo intern assigned to BM ?

if you don’t want to change BMs Aoe, just increased ALL DAMAGE by 10 % minimum (Pets and spells) for us and I’m sure everyone will be happy :smiling_face:

Not very complicated and not much work for you, just a few clicks… Bim bim ! And that’s all :slight_smile:
Hoping you will read this message, thanks in advance and courage to you !
