Dragonflight Class Tuning Incoming - 8 May

[Dejarous-draenor (Dejarous)]

Yea destro locks needed buffs

[Nafla-kirin-tor]

Our DPS as Brewmaster is the only thing we can do.
We’re a glass cannon tank, why nerfing the damage we do? that WTS nerfed is not right. It’s so out of touch.

[Nemmar-eonar (Nemmar)]

You may want to look at blood and survival set bonuses…

Scraps for the poor brews that won’t change anything.
Vengence likely to still be OP.
Good changes for prot Warrior. They may actually be decent in TWW.

[Deathgripx-ravencrest]

Ty Blizz for DK buffs. It’s been a struggle.

[Brio-ravencrest]

A tiptoe in the right direction for VDH! Not so sure about the damage changes for Brewmaster though…

[Ðaytoná-outland]

So out of touch for PVP it’s actually embarrassing.

[Dâan-blackhand (Dâan)]

I don’t get these buffs, too. Their ST damage is slightly better than from Feral and their AoE is insane on big pulls.

Rogue

• Assassination
  • Ability and auto-attack damage increased by 6%. Does not affect PvP combat.
  • Fixed an issue that caused the Assassination Rogue Season 3/Season 4 bonus to do slightly less damage than intended.

It’s not a big buff but it’s still something.

Protection

• Developers’ notes: Our goal for these changes is to reduce Protection Warrior deaths to the dangers that are most likely to kill them, like burst or magic damage. There are some talents that warriors have for protection against these threats, like Disrupting Shout, Bolster, or Battle-Scarred Veteran, but it can be difficult to find the talent points for them. To provide more build flexibility we are reducing the power of the Battering Ram talent and moving its damage and defensive benefits into core abilities. We’re also increasing damage across the board and buffing some defensive talent options.
• All ability damage increased by 5%.
• Devastator damage increased by 30%.
• Ignore Pain healing increased by 6%.
• Disrupting Shout’s cooldown reduced to 75 seconds (was 90 seconds).
• Enduring Alacrity increases Stamina and Armor by 10% (was 5%) and Haste by 2% (was 1%).
• Battering Ram now increases your auto-attack damage and speed by 10% for 20 seconds (was 20%).

And increased damage output helps us survive…how exactly?

[Faay-tarren-mill]

Thanks for a bit of Destro ST buffs, and moreover the Aff buffs are quite major, nice. <3

[Phyix-frostmane]

Stuff dies faster.

@Raazz-dentarg

Could someone, who understands the logic behind these end-of-expansion nerfs, explain to me the thought process of whoever is making these decisions?

I mean bros, is the end of the expansion, is bad enough that you gave us recycled content, at least let us have some fun. I feel like they are going out of their way to
make me quit while I am desperately trying to see the reason to keep going.

I main a Brewmaster, is fun to play atm because he does dmg but let’s not forget that after a dungeon that is timed i look like Rocky Balboa after he wins. ( which let’s face it , the guy looks like he lost from 2nd round)

Sad times

streamers whined , forums whined - nerfs happen .

same like they happened first to prot warriors , then to prot palas , then to guardian druids and now its DH time.

since BM was garbage whole expansion besides first levelign week untill they got their aoe dmg nerfed into ground they were safe all the time

[Keento-argent-dawn]

That really helps nothing if it still oneshots us

[Wóllff-archimonde]

Chaman

• Renforcement
  • Les soins de la Surtension de guérison ont été augmentés de 40 % en combat PvP (au lieu de 25 %)

Représentation des amélio en v2 1k8= 0.26%
Représentation des amélio en v3 1k8=0.62%
Représentation des amélio en SOLO 1k8=0.68%
Représentation des amélio en RBG 1k8=0,42%

@Kaivax

Nous avons continué à surveiller de près les données sur les performances des classes et les commentaires des joueurs. Avec une maintenance hebdomadaire programmée dans chaque région, nous apporterons les ajustements suivants aux classes qui sont sur et sous-performantes en contenu de groupe et en PvP.

Pour info 12 fois plus de vindicte que d’amélio en solo en v3
36 fois plus de dh que d’amélio en v3

Je comprend pas comment c’est possible un up si minime sur le heal, la survie de l’amélio est ridicule.

En arènes la team adverse va juste rester sur toi H24

[Iscarìot-argent-dawn]

Can`t wait for a new PVP MMO to come out :))) .

Why would they nerf Outlaw DMG yet they buffed a "two button class"MM :)))

[Kotara-stormrage]

Okay, very funny, now you’re going to come out with the real Fury-buffs, right?

…right?

[Ameng-argent-dawn]

@Kaivax

Monk

• Brewmaster
  • Keg Smash damage reduced by 10%.
  • Spinning Crane Kick damage reduced by 10%.
  • Summon White Tiger Statue damage reduced by 30%.
  • Effectiveness of Stagger against magical attacks increased to 55% (was 45%).
  • Healing Sphere healing increased by 10%.

I actually thougut those were all buffs initially because I just didn’t see a world where we’s be nerfing BrM at all right now. Really sad to even see a nerf when it’s currently one of the two worst tanks. I don’t disagree with nerfing Catue but I don’t really see a reason for a damage nerf without meaningful defensive buffs.

The magical stagger buff is nice but I’d also want to see an allround defensive increase as we’re really squishy. The healing orb change does practically nothing besides make it overheal even more.

BrM also relies on borrowed power, playing offensive trinkets and just an allround glass cannon playstyle to do high damage, and even then you tend to sacrafice group damage because you can’t pull like a VDH.

[Benico-argent-dawn]

VDH needs the double sigil talent removed.

[Life-khazgoroth]

The VDH changes don’t go far enough, the Brewmaster damage nerfs are a head scratcher, and the fact that massively overperforming dps specs like Shadow Priest are not addressed is disappointing.

Template phrases like “We have continued to closely monitor data on class performance and feedback from players” come across as mocking when you post (or don’t post) changes like those mentioned above.

[Macpew-draenor]

@Benico-argent-dawn

VDH needs the double sigil talent removed.

What would this honestly achieve ? I am genuinely wondering what you believe this change would achieve.
