Is PvP getting balanced at all?

The damage and healing for some classes is ridiculous… An undergeared hunter hitting a 17k damage serpent sting DoT… 72k chimera shot, 43k steady shot, a shadow priest hitting 42k mind blast and 42k devouring plague…

I know everything will become more balanced at level 90 but wtf is going on atm? Why is there no balance at all with the patch???

Why would they balance the game around a pre-patch that lasts for 3 weeks? Damage numbers are always super wonky in pre-patch pvp, it’s always been like that and will always be like that.

It’s pre patch, balancing it is a waste of time, it has 10 days left. The true question of pvp balance is why they don’t do something about all pvpers being humans.

Its balanced for lvl 90.
Even tho i actually dont agree that MOP has a good pvp balance at all^^

Level 90 pvp balance is being looked at: check out the blue posts on the mop classic beta section of the forum.
But yhea, it remains MoP’s pvp at the end of the day… crazy numbers on all sides are to be expected. But at least we should perhaps avoid the bigbad outliers since we are going to play on Mop 5.5 version which is slightly derived from 5.4.

That means, no crazy stampede, no Shado Pan Trinket one shot, less PvE trinkets overall. No crazy one shots from the usual mop culprits ( tasteforblood, frost bomb, power shot, chaos wave etc… )

The only thing I am wondering is whether “Unerring Vision of LeiShen” will be disabled/nerfed in pvp or not. On some classes it’s the only PvE trinket that would be worth lossing pvp resilience for a crazy PvE Buff in return.

It’s not like Blizzard has the capability of changing a few numbers for prepatch balance is it???

Shadow priests, hunters, rogues, ret pallys and death knights are doing a super high amount of damage right now. Doing nearly 10 million damage whilst other classes sit at around 5 million or less is just out right laziness from Blizzard.

We had boomies doing 2-3x more damage than any other spec for the entirety of cata so we can chill for 3 weeks of prepatch

Is diminishing returns in the game? I love being in a cc train of 15 seconds+…
