Ever since I respecced Brann to healer I don’t either, but still: while healer Brann made the Delves easy for my mage, he made them completely trivial for my BM hunter, since with mage I have to dodge abilities etc, while the Hunter just stands at max range and Dwarven Medicine makes pets nearly unkillable. I also don’t have any problems with Brann throwing potions into AOE, because unlike with the mage, who stands in the center of the action, Hunter stands far away from it and rarely is targeted by any AoE ability.
It’s easy with concentration needed vs easy and chill for me.
Also, I believe we won’t get any companion for Prey, and mage’s self healing isn’t that great, compared to Hunters ability to constantly heal his pets. I’ll have to wait for alpha to make any decision. I’m hyped for Midnight regardless.
Man, tank Brann from week one of S2 was really something else! Yea, I wish we could have him back, but even I have to admit they might have overturned him a bit back then
It’s been pretty heavily hinted that there’ll be more race class combos coming in Midnight, so fingers crossed Horde get a counterpart to Alliance for DH.
I may be misremembering, but I recall that in one of the interviews some devs were asked about this disbalance created by adding new DH race only for the Alliance, and the dev said something like: they acknowledge this disbalance, but players will have to wait and see how it plays out. So I’m pretty sure we’ll see this disbalance fixed at some point.
In all seriousness though, kiting used to be a skill of it’s own, appreciated by players (well, maybe not the ons that weren’t able to use the Bank or AH) and Devs (as shown for example in Hunter’s epic bow questline. It’s sad to see that now it’s considered to be problematic (to balance most probably) and therefore restricted in meaningful fights
Oh sure, no point arguing that. Present situation is very unfair for Horde players for one reason: many people change mains between expansions. Alliance players would be able to play VE DH from the start - even if the Horde gets another DH race during the expansion, it may be too late for many to change.
