If you think demo warlock is an issue then it’s time to quit gaming and find a new hobby bro.

Warlock is currently the weakest class in the game for pvp

i never asked for Melee Hunter Blizzard force this spec when they should make precision spec Top spec.

26

Idk, I think melee hunter is a lot of fun to play.

But it was also very op. Now it will still be super strong and viable.

27

the 30% removal right of the bat is disgusting , maybe reductions of 15% or so

28

Don’t need to stack 22 warriors for Naxx again, tyvm

Idc, I’ll remain MM and it’s nice in pvp. Would be nice to see some buffs PvE wise though

29

Blizzard has for once done exactly what I recommended, just nerfed the +30% damage on the dualwield rune, this will prevent the 24/07 2h spec from being nerfed when it wasn’t necessary, nice call.

Afterwards yes the dualwield hunter will go down several ranks in dps and will perhaps no longer be as usable as before, but at least the complainers will stop crying, they will continue to get smashed in pvp but they will no longer have argument to complain about it. Git gud

Nerfing the entire 30% is just idiotic, a 20% nerf would’ve sufficed but they haven’t a clue what they’re doing and I say this as someone who plays Hunter and refuses to play ‘Melee Hunter’

the problem of melee Hunter is more on Lone wolf rune then DW. in My Mind they should make Lone wolf having less % damage for melee style 40% range 20% melee. to keep MM playable and also i love if they work on Expose Weakness Rune which will be huge to play with for BM and even for MM

32

Lone wolf rune is useless againts AoTL anyway. That will never change.

33

Melee BM will be fine after the nerf.
Surv however will die. All it needed was a FS buff if no pet is active for LW SV to remain relevant.

Welcome back to being pigeonholed into a single spec.

So stop beeing melee :stuck_out_tongue:

36

The fact that it can be an option when specific conditions are met is still problematic. One thing is for Lone Wolf to enable “sniper fantasies” and another one to be the default rune for damage even when meleeing.

I’ve said it before: Lone Wolf is a dangerous rune that shouldn’t exist. It shouldn’t delete an entire core aspect of a class. I’m fine with it if the devs find the sweet spot for some MM builds but doubling its damage was perhaps not it.

The very latest sims appear to not favor LW but it’s also partially due to Gnomeregan’s armor values and mechanics.

37

As i was afraid, melee hunter is a dangerous thing to have. Blizzard couldn’t even balance hunters when they are all ranged with a pet. Saddenly they have to balance the ranged/melee pet/petless so 4 different combinations. The result will probably be one mediocre build and three useless ones.
