Can’t just be me who is really thinking a bit more delay on AQ coming out so they can sort out the really off base set bonuses they’ve designed?
Warlock tank apparently makes no sense.
Shaman tank uses abilities they don’t need
Rogue DPS gets SSl boost and Adrenaline rush CD. But SSl rogues don’t use adrenaline rush? And the muti/bs rogues gain nothing out of this
The rogue tank both set bonuses are utterly undesirable.
I don’t know all the classes and specs but there is from what I’ve heard a lot of misses when it comes to the bonuses. Like the dev who’s in control of the bonus design has no idea about how the class and spec is played and has spent 0 minutes researching.
Anyone else getting these vibes?
I think its a way for blizz to try to break the meta speccs. Maybe force people to play something else than what they have played so far.

I can see you have not seen warriors yet =P
In phase 6. We will have 3 abilties that we can use for optimal rotation, Slam + Overwpower + Heroic strike. We are back to phase 1!!!
Every1 gets something cool but warlock again is left out, i see shamans geting more procs for lavaburst and pushback protection and shadowpriests spaming mindflay and minespike together while warlock gets what? 1,5 sec less on shadowcleave? xD man why they doing us like this?
Atleast they fixed the pet bugs but still havent implemented 50% PvP reduction dmg on pets that is needed! and 80% avoidance on all content.
The sets have been all over the place so far, I don’t see why it would be different now.
wander if they will ceep the possebillety to let us change setbonuses as we can do now.
well, they changed the tank shaman set bonus, adding lava burst and molten blast to the 10% damage reduction proc, and additional to the 10% health from the 5pc bonus, they added 20% threat and 10% damage, so ele tanks can now use it.
that’s very nice and all, but that still doesn’t hold a candle to t2 set bonuses.
flame shock increasing block chance significantly every cast + 30% of spell power to block value stacking up to 3 times + 50% chance to proc maelstrom on block is very hard to compete with, and i don’t see anybody giving that up for a bit of threat, hp and damage increases, even if they are percentage based.
Sod is crap for warlock players…
T1 and T2 really strong compared to the half arsed T2.5
Having the opposite effect for feral 2.5 set is a huge dps increase over previous tiers, I never thought we would replace bleed crits from molten core but this set absolutely blows previous sets out of the water.
Feels like a lot of design choice went into “did the ZG set bonus give a huge power spike for your subspec?” if so you probably wont get the same again from AQ set. Rogue backstab spec for example still uses 3pc from ZG set, Prot warrior i assume will still use 3 pc of zg set, as will balance druid. Lock tank i have no idea but probably the same.
Feels like boomie is the only one that got a good zg set and good aq set that is dps.
Some classes are either keeping 4pc BWL 4pc AQ or completely dropping BWL tier besides 2pc in favour of zg set bonus and other items.
Neh we’re in a bad spot but I’m enjoying my warlock so much
Could be worse we could be sissy mage boys
doesnt force people to change at all. just forces people to quit
It forced me to change, i’ve been playing dagger rogue pretty much since p1 and mutilate. Now im gonna have to go SS instead, and im lowkey kinda looking forward to it.
Its nice to change it up alittle, atleast i think so anyway.
