Mastery is dog. It has been dog the entirety of BFA. Instead of letting this dead stat sit uselessly in our char panel can we at least make it better by making more of our kit do Chaos Damage?
It SUCKS to get gear from Raid/Dungeon that has Mastery on it, I have ilvl 200 items simming higher than 213 because of Mastery being so far behind.
I think making more of our kit deal Chaos damage is the wrong way to fix this.
Would much prefer Fire Damage to be added to our Mastery scaling, so that in the event we get ‘Chaos Locked’ we don’t lose access to our entire damage toolkit, and instead still get the damage buff but without the drawback of being 100% Chaos reliant.
One thing that absolutely needs addressing is Demon Blades dealing Shadow Damage. No idea where Blizzard pulled that from, nothing else about DH is Shadow based.
Cause then Trinkets or Pots start to scale with Mastery. Maybe that’s not a bad thing, though. Just make Mastery increase non Physical damage.
We’re middle of the pack DPS wise now. They just need to nerf the top positions and maybe give Havoc something cause right now Vengeance brings the only important thing we have. Sure you have Darkness but it’s not important enough for people to use Havocs.
Hot take, they should make CHaos Brand Havoc only.
