Hopefully your’re right and I don’t get rekt on DH from max range 
[just joking my own bias ofc]
I quit WoW and didn’t come back till around mid to late Feb so missed a lot of the earlier wild balancing, and giga strong DH sadly. Thought I HATE playing broken classes / Fotm
If people thinks every caster in the game is not ultra overtuned, you guys have a insane problem.
holy…those are some big meatballs with a side of big shock
Tbh its been wild balancing throughout so im sure more is to come at one point tje class being screeched at to be nerfed changed weekly lol
Because now burst is unpredictable. You can get -200 000 from the air.
just line it, or Pre Deff cd
playing DK this season is horrible
dk needs a buff
they are supposed to be good vs casters but is getting blown up
if i met a dk 1v1 id get destroyed tho.
good thing you are never 1v1 in arena and that the game isnt designed around 1v1
back on topic …DK bad
nono, this has to be adressed
You claim, and with you i mean, you and a lot of people on the forum for more than a decade, that the game doesn’t revolve or is balanced around 1v1, YET you are complainig, that the game isn’t balanced for 3v3, even tho, we all know they take do try to do some tuning for 3v3, and 0 for 1v1
So we have to disregard the fact that there is people that enjoy duels, and bgs, or other pvp encounter other than arena meta? And if we do, why is the game NEVER balanced in arena ever ? would you define the game balanced when your class was doing well? has there ever been a season wher eyoui could firmly say that the arena enviroment was balanced and fun ?
Remember when the game had pvp and pve, and arena was introduced later on ? and bgs and duels were more of a thing, and then people started giving so muiich importance to a minigame that i s arena until it became “the only thing you are supposed to care if you are a pvp player”?
Best aprt is, you rarely see people playing arena and enjoying it. very rarely, proven by the amount of fotm and melee vs caster arena posts over the years and even literally during a single season
TLDR:
The game is not balanced around 1v1, and 1v1 doesn’t matter, yet, it isn’t balanced in 3v3 either, but 3v3 is more important because thats what most people play,l even tho, most of these people don’t seem to be enjoying it at all.
I think they should just say screw it n balance the game around solo shuffle. Based on popularity that is clearly where the games future is in terms of PvP. The amont of players partaking in 3v3 is a fraction of the popularity of solo shuffle n that is even taking que times n deflated season into consideration, the whole “people do it for easy rating” is no longer valid since even after the deflation in rating people still clearly prefer the gamemode for its accessability.
For reference, in EU in the last 72 hours in 3v3, 76345 specs were present in games. That means 12724 games were played. In shuffle 648311 specs saw play, which means 108051 rounds were played. This means that roughly 10% of the PvP playerbase prefers 3v3 even with its fast ques n with solo shuffle deflation.
The numbers speaks for itself and its time to stop pretending that the 10% is more relevant than the 90%. Thats not to say the gamemode should be removed or even that any rewards should be moved from 3v3 to shuffle, its fine as it is in that regard but the balancing should be around shuffle where the massive majority partakes as opposed to tailoring the game to the 10%.
You melees give me hell in solo shuffle when i play MM hunter. Lots of all melee lobbies at lower ratings is no fun for MM.
It’s because you no longer need a stacked friends list, or previous experience and achievements to prove whether you are good
You can just queue up, and play , improve + climb.
It got a lot more people playing PvP and trying it out, including PVE’rs , which is great
More players the better
I agree and think they should improve RSS , and also overhaul the LFG system to make it much much easier to find groups for 3s
There is a lot that can be done
Blizzard having the approach that PvP is a mini-game so we give you guys crumbs is just bad all round. If they have that approach, it will be a mini-game , but if they really pour into it , you will find popularity increasing. In my opinion anyway
MM will always be an awkward spec imo just from the nature of it
Ehmm I played retri and warrior in pvp and I can tell you Retri never had it easy haha. It used to be we could atleast handle a lot of damage. Now we just glascannon, but our cannon has a melee range and is easy to controle with CC and kiting haha. Plus less survival power than (insert random other melee class).
Yeah I forsee Warlocks and druids being left alone… Warriors get even more selfhealing… DH get more damage and Firemages get even more survival power…
Meanwhile everyone playing Ret will again be the main target everywhere haha. And still people complaining about our burst even do most of our extra damage is just damage on pets…
You mean Retri is just unplayable haha. The other melee’s atleast have gapclosers and some of them have even harder burst in 2 secs than us and others have Mortal strike.
The only caster most melee’s now really hate is balance druids, which is just a op at the moment and blizzard seem to not care haha. Warlocks and fire mages can be annoying aswell and warlocks overtuned like always.
If the wizards get tuned a bit down Retri is still not viable, because the melee owns them aswell.
Imagine if they add RSS in Wotlk classic and in all respectfully ongoing expansions like Cata Mop and put a glad mount as a reward for 100 wins above 2400. That would attract so much people in Pvp.
Played few 3s and my Warrior absolutely destroyed every caster we met idk Whats your problem
Game is good when braindead melee’s are whining. Always was and always will be. Because when you are not whining your spec is braindead op and broken.
Some melee are definitely struggling. Caster meta. I just think their defensives need buffing, or unnerfing. Ret paladin for example is in an awful spot, worse than before the rework. Their defensives have a 30 second CD with forbearance, their heals are trash, and theyre just a target dummy. Especially when most of the SS maps are huge - which is obviously a huge advantage to casters as well. Blades Edge is trash for everyone, ruins is the only hope I think.
