Demon Hunter is OP

How is come that one DH ganks 5 players that kill some mobs and kill all of us!? He stuns every f 2 sec we are not able to do s. This must be nerfed in order to provide a good balance. I don’t have more info, test it and you will found the same thing.

They are OP, not necessarily damage wise, but Blade Dance wise and Leech wise while in metamorphosis.

Stuns every two seconds? Okay, that must be a follower stun I assume as well, otherwise DH alone cannot stun that often.

That being said, a DH can kill multiple people; it all depends on the enemy classes and what world pvp talents, items, and consumables one uses to bolster the survivability and damage.

It’s quite easy to take on multiple people as a DH, especially if there are extra mobs around, since you can just wipe out a whole pack of mobs for the Leech heals on top of a 20% heal from the soul of each mob. Granted that is world pvp only as the original post stipulated.

I managed to work my way from 0 kills to halfway through the Horde slayer quest fighting constantly for over 15 minutes, before I finally got overwhelmed 1 vs 4.

It feels less like it’s OP, more like its simplicity to power ratio is waaaay off, there’s very little skill in being a good DH. It’s a 4 button spec with healing and melee mitigation built into the damage rotation and some of the most disgusting mobility next to Druids.

They are good in pvp but not that good in they are OP
I find them one of the weakest one
None of the 2 racials dh can be realy have a racial that makes them good

Stop right there bro. You or one of your friends must’ve attacked him first and got outplayed because you’re not supposed to back paddle in PvP. I truly doubt he just decided to 1v5.

Almost funny.
Every time someone tries to kill a PVP player and gets a ticket to the spirits they post how OP that class is.

Yes DH has good self heal. But they are still leather. I have more problems with disc and pallys then DHs.
Learn the class you counter and you can mostly kill all classes you counter. Whatever class you play yourself.

To the original poster… before posting a topic like this its best you put forward your views in a constructive manner and explain why you think they are OP. Unfortunately you attract trolls on this post who will just state you are “crying”. I feel like the 5vs1 situation you are referring to is a little over exaggerated however with that being said, yes in summary I do agree that Demon Hunters are OP in a PvP scenario.

Their damage output along with their mobility and defensives practically make them a formidable foe. Typically most classes with high damage output but have weak defensives/utility/mobility are known as “glass cannons”. For example, myself playing a Paladin, our burst is particularly high however out utility/mobility is very weak. This however is not the case for demon hunters who have all three, damage, mobility and defensives/leech but hey, what do I know. Hero classes have always been introduced OP as it was exactly the same in WOTLK. Blizzard as usual take their time to give them a nerf but sooner or later it will come.

Lmao Demon Hunters are one of the worst classes for any pvp outside of arena…

Root/snare they have no way of getting to you. Or better yet just stun them, blow all your burst CD and they are dead before they come out of stun. GG EZ.

Demon Hunters are strong. I do dislike their leech and think its rather too high for how quickly they can dish out damage to make use of the vamp!

(I honestly think that DHs should not have leech but should have been more anti-magic imho)

What I do think might have been the case is that the mass-murderer had a few ilvls on you? I can absolutely dominate as a Ret Paladin, and have done even recently vs a Prot Warrior and his Resto Shaman in Nazjatar. But then I got trounced by a Warlock and Rogue - mostly skill there though but they also hit very hard!

Maybe your DH had a similar situation?

Their leech is…alright. What isn’t fine is blade dance dodge and ranged interrupt on a highly mobile class. Nerf that and they will be cool.

Well the ranged interupt for me is a bit annoying in its concept - DHs are magic users despite being anti-magic so that kind of vouches for the range there, but yeah they really should not be allowed to have such range when they can clear the distance fine!

Maybe a shorter mid-ranged interupt could work?

Considering Blade Dance, I’d say the class doesn’t need nerfed, it needs retuned/reworked. Its far too simple even by the standards of the pruned environment WoW is in when they were introduced.

Nerfing it would just gut the spec entirely but give them a bit more thought in design and maybe that’d be your happy median too?

Nerfing it would not gut the spec, they are one of the tankiest DPS in PVP, on par with Death Knights and Destro Warlocks. Tankiness on a mobile class should never be a thing, not when you already have good defensives and nice team utility. They need to make the class harder to play, atm it isn’t very punishing to make mistakes. Constant meta damage is fine, but the leech from metamorphisis is too much, especially when people are playing Demonic which ensures that you get Meta very often.

I can kill them 1v1 so the 5 people fighting 1 DH must of been afk or something to all die. But 1 thing that is stupidly op and annoying as hell is the fact that their animations make them immune to spells what is that all about? I fought 1 today in naz and i cast poly twice and they were both immune because of their meta animation meant i couldnt poly them, that is 1 total BS thing that needs to change

Never mind, I was raging Q_Q and bad geared. Also I didn’t know too much about Enhancement shaman(new class for me), now I can kill them easily in 1 vs 1 PVP if it’s not a big difference at iLVL, however, DH is better than Enhancement at Raid and I think PVP too.

Thanks for your replies and have a nice day!
