Daily Reminder to buff back Demon Hunters

Bumpy bump

Bump. It also seems on PTR The Hunt is nerved also now. Im going to reroll, feels like a waste of time investing in a class which does nothing in pvp.

Yeah with 213 -215 item level demon hunter is crap in pvp. I’m telling this based in my personal experience

Same here 212 ilvl, tried to play arenas with all kind of healers, even darkness leggo doesn’t help much. Started playing rbg as Veng to get better gear to play as Havoc on arenas
 38-40k hp ppl on 2s 1400 ratio seems to be a nice entry lvl. High risk, low reward spec. Even if you are controlling full game and countering enemies, one mistake can get you loose. Enemy can make tons of mistakes and still manage to win. Havoc seems to be like homeless guy vs mma fighters.

I have a confession.

I hated Demon Hunters for the last couple of years. HATED them. Couldn’t hit them, they healed what dmg you did anyway with shards/leech and they’d just faceroll you and move onto the next chump, with no dents in their hp.

Then I rolled one. When in Rome
 Found they were fun. Played it on and off through the end half of BFA.

Went back to it this week. Wondering if the chatter was true. The class had been gutted. They were a pale shadow of what they once where. OMG. I can understand some of the frustration other people felt playing against them since Legion, but this seems
excessive.

I don’t understand how a single class could be eviscerated so much and the devs and class designers responsible not have a twinge of conscience about it.

Fighting Demon Hunters in 3v3 makes me happy because I will know in advance that we will win the game :slight_smile:

I was wondering about leveling up a DH purely for PVP. But all i see is negative things about them, where ever I look. Didnt find any indications that dhs gonna get buffed in the next patch. Anyone has some info regarding the buffs?

:joy: well thanks blizz for helping me break my wow addition - went from playing religiously every day to twice per week for my pity raid spot.
Don’t even do the callings anymore it’s so unfun to play a spec that feels weak and unfinished - and no I won’t be re rolling after maining havoc since it’s release.
I’m guessing havoc will be unchanged, seeing as there hasn’t even been a response or acknowledgment about the unhappiness for the state of the spec. I think all you guys up top have your heads buried in sand, try havoc and see how bad it is for yourself.
Next step will be unsub.

The 3% damage buff is like putting a band aid on a missing limb.
The class needs a solid rework, because it’s really underperforming now, especially on strict single target damage.

There is no communication or feedback loop unfortunatly. There is no roadmap like communication like overall/general state of the class and plans ahead etc

We have no idea what to expect, where to voice ideas, how to interact meaningfully etc

I actually think the 3-5% buffs has nothing to do with balancing. It’s more of a content balance for maw. Reminds me how I did the quest, when asked how i did in the maw first time. If you guys remember.

I’m thinking of un sub also
we havoc DH player’s pay same amount as everyone else
no point in paying for sh** game play experience
 I won’t go play something else I don’t want to
I love Havoc DH
that’s what i pay my sub for.

Well i unsubed because i tried nearly every spec and only had fun with havoc. It is stupid unfair on pvp how much we must do everything right just to have a chance to win with something like warrior, monk, ret or mage. I am nowhere near good player on pvp but it is just not fun to try to be better.
Maybe i will come back after month or more if anything changes but it is hard to say by the changes we have seen till now

New necrolord ability looks interesting, but again aoe

[Fodder to the Flame] Your damaging abilities have a chance to call forth a demon from the Theater of Pain for 25 sec. Throw Glaive deals lethal damage to the demon, which explodes on death, dealing (175% of Attack power) damage to nearby enemies and healing you for 25% of your maximum health. The explosion deals reduced damage beyond 5 targets.

We need an update on dh Blizz. Come on we deserve to know, what and when can we expect some kind of serious buff ? No more 3 or 5% buffs, give us something legit :muscle:

Buff Chaos strike damage. Havoc is good in M+ but only on AOE (still nothing compare to uncapped classes/mage etc.) In Single Target, slacking as hell
 I dont want reroll to other class only because blizz doesnt have balanced classes. I love playing Havoc, but its not fair being in lower dmg positions with 10-15 bigger ilvl than balance druid or affli lock
 really thinking of un-sub soon.
