Class Tuning Incoming – 24 January

Like Boomkin. I just dont get it. They are now after the changes at the grey end… in an “Druid patch”. Blizzard just shows they just cant do it

Praise the Void Lords, this is good!

Another ‘sticky plaster’ fix for ferals, guess I’m stuck in Guardian a while longer then.

Those are totally different roles…

And who in their right mind would rather play guardian, which is one of the worst tanks.

Because feral in PVP is beyond pathetic right now, so until that changes, I’m stuck as Guardian.

Oh you playing pvp… I am sorry to hear that… and yes I can totally understand, feral die there if you just sneeze at them

Exactly that, even just splash from aoe wipes my feral out faster than I can blink at times, so frustrating and caster classes aren’t my thing so I’m the boring tank guy of the BG’s for now :frowning:

Guardian is either total garbage or a god depending on small tuning :sweat_smile:

After so many buffs and nerfs, Feral be there too No matter, I ´v earned also over 3k + in Rio

Ever tried to change classes for one or two patches?

I am a diehard shaman nowadays, but I used to change classes when it was not fun anymore (not FOTM rerolling). Nowadays I have so many games that I rather quit the game for patches than changing my fav class.

Thats because their design is not good.

But tbh to make a tank OP nowadays you often just have to make them do a lot more dmg than the rest.

Elemental as a whole feels wrong. It needs a rework.

But that does not mean that RShaman should get the short end of the stick because of it.

probably buff flame shock and give magma totem on a 20s cd that spreads flame shock would be a way to go as you would have passive dmg that can be tuned equally.

They actually approach it the same way, I mean look at holy priest for example.
The burst they have now is massive because they only buff holy fire before like 20 times.
But it doesn’t help all that much for overall dmg.
same will happen with resto shaman. they will have crazy burst at the start and than do pityful dmg the next minute.

MW does very good dmg in trash pulls but on tyrannical bosses is can also hard fall off once you actually have to heal, which happens especially in DOTI
Disc on the other hand has enough power with atonement to heal through it 99% of the time

at least earthquake needs a fresh idea

In my opinion Burst is the only way to more or less balance healer DPS if you don’t give some “atonement” passive damage to all healers.

So stormkeeper is a good idea because of that.

you either have to make it burst or passive dmg that can be applied easily at the start of the fight and lasts for 15-20s before you need to reapply

-acid rain / flame shocks
-fire breath
-holy fire dot, shadowword pain
-consecration
-moonfire / sunfire / rip / rake

they just have to be tuned similarly

SCK is nothing more than a glorified aoe dot if you will. If you put a spinning statue in the middle and manual heal people, it could be the same result (obviously would be terrible playstyle)

burst is great in low keys. In low keys my holy priest can do 120k dps because I do is burst every second pull with quadra holy fire

Dk Armor nerf… wtf are blizzard thinking

in PVP DK is squishy vs melee, more so than cloth casters

  • Blizzard : " i know …ill nerf DK , i know it has no mobility, i know its squishy to melee… ok, armour nerf "
  • WoW Community : " wtf? "

As far as I know Outlaw rogue was already almost S tier pre-changes, these armor nerfs mean that they’ll jump up to S+, they’ll cut you as if you are a piece of paper and I’m worried even me as a Warrior might struggle now.

I guess I’ll wait and see for a while how the new meta will shape then decide what to play as second class this season…

It’s unfortunate that this happend when season is basically OVER for most of us that were going hard at the begining :smiley:
but hey at least you did something

We’re like half-way into season 3. The next season will probably be in March or April.

I’m still progressing in mythic raid, so I’m happy that these buffs are coming out.

Good for you but what i said is true :smiley:
Most people are done with this season
Especially because of slow reaction on blizzard side
