Hello all!
Over the last month or so i’ve been dancing between my Guardian, Prot Pally, VDH and Warr for a few low level mythics (only +2 up to +8, primarily on Guardian) and so far, VDH is the most fun for me personally as it’s relatively simple in most circumstances and the added transition to Havoc and QoL (Glide etc) it has lends itself well to world content.
I wanted to get some case studies from more experienced VDH’s on how you’re recieved from groups and healers, and how far you’re pushing the limits?
I always ask the healer privately after group content how they found healing me and the feedback is usually “It’s easy as i don’t really do anything” however i’m not exactly hitting challenging content yet.
My reasoning is that although i have zero intention of pushing mythic past 15 at most on this char, with SL coming up i’d rather put my efforts into one character in regards to rep, professions etc and something i can take into SL at the end of the year rather than spending my time in game jumping between 4-5 characters doing visions dailies etc.
Contrary to alot of discussions on this forum, i’m not bothered with the simple rotation. I’ve been on and off this game since 2007 and i’ve seen pruning and unpruning and honestly, i like the simple nature of DH and this is one of the reasons i’m put off Prot warr. I understand they are the meta for pushing, but personally they just feel clunky and awkward despite me loving Fury.
I love bear, and i love completing and collecting stuff without hopping out of flight form, but i also like my transmogs and two are mutually exclusive when doing group content unfortunately. I also dislike having to carry 2 sets of gear around, i appreciate that gear now carries and activates the core stats per spec but we’re still at a stage where things like haste/vers/mastery/crit are static to the item.
Paladin for me is ok, i don’t dislike nor love. This is likely because i’ve not given it much attention since 8.3 hit but the damage doesn’t wow me, it doesn’t feel that fun and all round just doesn’t have pizzazzzzz about it outside sparkly sparkly.
Would love to hear your stories of VDH in the field and why you play it!
