Some clear outliers. As everyone knows already sin spec is absurdly strong, it’s not even close to the next highest, no idea why it hasn’t tuned down at this point.
DH still seems very strong compared to the other melee brawlers. Feral + Arms also making a strong showing.
Destro and Ele strongest casters, Looks like all the demo’s switch to destro soon as they got buffs.
Beastmasters as we all know very strong.
Hardest Dps classes to climb SS : WW, Paladin and DK.
Every other class has a subclass it can do well with. Now what differs those 3 from other similar brawlers is the question. And in terms of buffing maybe you should look at those classes and their subsets first.

how mahy dh feral etc got that high before their classes were rightfully nerfed though… most classes seem pretty balanced apart from the obvious outlier assa

I actually disagree that WW is difficult to climb. Specs with strong burst can climb very quickly.
And people didnt neccessarily switched to Destro due to buffs. That already happened when Blizz giga-nerfed Demonic Strength and another nerf to dogs in addition to previous self-sustain related nerfs. Now Demo does no damage and it has to cast ALOT unlike Dest whom can spam confs, SBs and incs.
And yeah Assa is broken.

Yeah, thats what i was thinking. I don’t know whos current and who is new.
And Affliction is in the same spot as in SL damage to slow for the burst meta.
DH players got that rating when the class was busted, and are now sitting there waiting for their reward

Frost dk is garbage.
Always been and will always be becouse the setup is just bad, chill streak never works.
Honestly, it’s only really usable as data if you compare it every week.
Like I said, would be great to see a graph of recently played vs rating. We’d get a true value then.
ret palyers*** dh is still broken
There are a total of 244 caster classes above 3k with devastation evoker the least representatives.
There are a total of 238 melees with Enh the least representatives. However, ret is expected to be even worse, since at least the top 5 haven’t played a single game since the nerfs in 10.0.5. Most who were >3k before nerfs and kept playing, dropped below 3k rating.
So overall caster vs. melee seems balanced.
However, we are looking forward to the upcoming changes.
You’re looking forward to borrowed powers returning?
nope. But class changes, specifically ret changes.
Ret is fine x14 of em, while some other speccs got 0.

Frost DK is sooo bad in arena
people actually forget it exists because of unholy DK
honestly Frost has needed a complete rework for a while, and while the PTR notes have changed some talents it doesnt fix the spec for PvP purposes
Frost plays like Arms in the sense it requires big Hits to land kills, but frost has no MS effect,
its basically a weaker younger and more clunky version of an ARMs warrior with no mobility and no MS
- it comes to no surprise that people forget Frost DK was ever a thing besides being used for an AOE stun
