Havoc in BFA

Hoping to give some feedback about Havoc specc in general to Blizzard for the next expansion. Questions I think is important to answer is written in bold at the end, a TL;DR if you will. This is not a survey though so do whatever you want, I just want to read some opinions on what people think of the specc.

Blizzard announced that they will make changes to speccs and classes so I want to give a little feedback on Havoc specc. I think this is the least challenging specc I have ever touched, though I haven’t played all classes I admit. However the level of tactical decision making is almost entirely absent, rather focused around a single ability. Which is Chaos Strike. It would not shock me if someone posted a video of themselves, in a raid, playing with one hand on the mouse and pressing buttons with their nose.

Personally I think this specc is the laziest design by Blizzard to date. It looks pretty, but offers almost nothing in terms of interesting gameplay(or remotely challenging). I would very much like to see the devs give this specc a special identity, meaning what should it do that no other class can? Because right now for me that means double jump and seeing people while invisible. Havoc doesn’t stand out in any capacity other than being… well simple.

So a couple of questions:
**Do you think Havoc is fun to play?
Are you satisfied with Havoc’s difficulty level?
What changes would you like to see?

I wouldn’t say lazy but uninspired. I gave up my rogue because he indeed lost so many abilities (which got either gutted or given to other specs) I could not recognize the class anymore and I needed to play something else as I played since TBC.

The spec can be enjoyable to play but would need different spenders to become interesting. Similar to how rogues had slice’n’dice, kidney shot, rupture, and another that reduced armor.

Demonic should be baseline imo.

Our so called “best mobility” is untrue. Monks and even rogues with the right talents can get catch up to us or flee without much trouble while we can be sitting ducks as fel rush is on CD. So I think giving us a proper stunlock wouldn’t be that much to ask. Fel eruption is a talent and the AoE one is very situational in my eyes.

Something to make survivability a bit better. Life steal is just barely noticeable outside of meta.

Sadly thats the case for every spec in the game so far.
