PvP Tuning -- 10 February

people have been doing nothing but complain about boomkin since the game dropped. Ele deffo needs to be worked on, a caster who doesnt cast jumping around oneshotting everyone. SP is fine, strong burst, but in no way something that you cant play around

Not really sure I agree. Shadow and ele feel extremely close in how good they are, so if youā€™d want to nerf one because itā€™s too strong, youā€™d logically have to nerf the other one, too.

Every single hot-fix it only proves how disconnected (yes I said it) DEVā€™s really are not only from community but form game itself.

First PvE - Nerfed UHDK 20% of mastery first week because we were topping meters, look at statistics now, they did not nerf any other top DPS

well as for PvP - letā€™s be honest to see so many casters, ret pallies healing 3/4 of healer in arenas (AWC go watch) and so many other classes just utterly broken, and what they do, ignore the outcries

Yet lets give some classes some 2-5% buff/nerf, and yeah that should do itā€¦ NO, DEVS, YOU NEED TO DO SOMETHING MORE, pull out your sheets, look at statistics, look at those beloved numbers you were always so considered about and start doing something, and fastā€¦ people are getting tired by this

grand expansion, but devs doing these ā€œmajorā€ hotfixes are killing everything

i might be mistaken here, so correct me if im wrong. I feel like ele is maybe abit more lottery than SP? i mean, you know when the dmg is coming, but you dont know how much, where as i feel SP is abit more ā€œscriptedā€. Might be equal dmg, but kinda feel like SP dmg is easier to deal with.

there would be way more if fire wouldnt be super op and frost also good.
Also there are definitely 10x worse specs like fury, demo etc.

you didnt even play a single arena match how could you even know if its competetive? you dont even arena at all lol

No

I know my spec, have 100k hks already. Besides the best Arcane Mages (like Vultz) have said so in their streams.

i saw a pally on youtube during a BG going solo into a 10 player pack and killing 3 before he died

This 7.5% NS absorb looks good at least on MeS stream. Peoples get full HP necrotic debuff - need to test it tomorrow. Kekw.

Ah ok so youā€™re using a site that just lists you as whatever spec you last logged out as, meaning itā€™s super inaccurate

Or do you really think Blizo, Joefernandes and Bajheera all play arena as fury, that Ssds plays BM, and that thereā€™s 3 guardian druids above 2.9k in europe?

Iā€™ll log out as arcane and become the third highest rated arcane mage in europe next time it updates

:smiley:

You know one clip doesnā€™t mean it is like that all the time right?

Do u know thats worth to try?

Even if they logged out as different spec (dull imo) the number of Arcanes is still abysmally low

with tunings like this every other week weā€™re going to have a halfway decent season by 2035, nice

idk to me it feels like itā€™s just the same candy in a different wrapping you know. stuff like unholy/fmage/assa rogue get ā€œsmall constant buffsā€, (tbh its the first one for unholy and its abysmall in pvp) and thruought the duration of the season (2 months i guess?) they still remain trash for the same amount of time that they would spend being trash if blizzard did major buffs every 2 months? i mean youā€™re going to start playing them when its their 4th or 5th buff that finally makes them viable/competetive/op so whats the difference?

i agree, but disc can heal through damage too, so can spend less mana. But i agree generally priests mana reg is bad.

Only 2 arcane 2400 and yet you donā€™t understand when it needs at least 2 brain cells.
