Why do I get oneshotted as a BDK upon starting a pack in M+ -with- a defensive, while as a warrior or a paladin I can literally watch a movie on my second monitor, while also doing ridiculously high DPS -And- ignore every mechanic because I can just take it?
I honestly hate this meta, I hate that you are forced to play classes you hate to play comfortably, this didn’t happen in the last expansions, unless you got to REALLY high keys, but you can start feeling this stuff as low as +10s, it’s crazy bad.
I can tank the 10s with DK, that’s not the issue, the issue is that you can feel the difference from that level already. And if you think that feeling the difference between classes at lvl 10 is a skill issue you are literally clueless lol
No that was the case for the last expansions as a bdk. In fact in every expansion that highest number of keys tanks died to white damage, bdk could not compete at that level.
BDK mitigate damage by taking it and then healing it, with this model there is a point that you take enough dmg in a single global that you die. Every other tank mitigates damage before taking it mostly, only dk does mainly after taking it (maybe dh comes close to dk, but not that polarizing).
Also this is by design. You cannot balance dks for the highest level of keys, because if you do that you either:
Change them so they mitigate damage before taking it, which will need a rework and make them the same as other tanks (at the moment they are the most unique tank in the game).
Tune them to survive at the highest level of m+, which will make them just immortal in all other kind of content and difficulties.
The balancing isn’t fair. It’s flawed in many ways across all roles. Blizzard are pretty terrible at it considering it’s been a rinse repeat cycle now for decades.
I wish people would stop this crap. What happens at those key levels is literally 0.1% or less of the population.
“Balancing” happens across all levels and keys are doable where most people sit. Some classes will shine at low keys, others will come into their own a bit higher up and so on but this crap of pointing out the 0.1% and making angry noises needs to stop. It’s stupid.
What does that table even say? To me it says that all tank specs are capable of high keys. Sounds well balanced to me. The exact numbers are irrelevant as there is only a very small group of players up there, pretty much deciding what the exact number of active tank-specs is up there. That does NOT say ANYTHING about the capability of the other specs.
BDKs are clearly able to do 15s, so they can’t get one-shot so easily.
And this, just play Prot Paladin. It’s actually fairly easy to mess up ending up in taking a bizarre amount of damage…
If you are not playing a +17 or a +15 none of that matters to you.
As for BDK in 10s… ALL tanks (and I mean ALL, including PPala) have a really hard time in 10s. And if you dont play perfect you will get 1-shot or very close to it.
Wait a min…Wasnt Rsham beyond broken ?!? Like i said in the other thread in 2-3 weeks no one will get a single shamy for over 15 keys,and not even that,everyone like to make it easier for themselfs,so that will go down the levels too.
But hey,Rsham is broken guys NERF IT NOW
