They are too busy giving mages everything they want.
I came back to wow after quitting at the start of SL,the ammount of everything they gave to mages is efing absurd at best…
you took the words out of my mouth, honestly making frost mage go live like this is shameful. The season starts in 3 days and I’m forced to use affliction soul harvester (which will be nerfed because people complain about the million shadowbolts, despite it being a proc and requiring quite a short setup).
Demonology is disarmingly slow, the charhound on which a lot of the spec’s damage is based has a biblical cast time, and then takes about ten seconds to launch itself onto the target. Plus Diabolist, AKA Bugolist, was also secretly nerfed.
Destruction has ridiculously low damage, and even hellcaller was disintegrated with the internal CD
I was simply replying to someone who wrote that the developers are too busy making the mages even stronger, and it made me smile because honestly right now the frost mages are totally out of control in terms of damage, mobility, CC and they don’t cast anything, they are gods machine guns and three days into the first season it’s a huge problem
