Hello,
I don’t know why but, the cycle is repeating itself basically every patch. Blizzard makes a decent rework of a class than nerf it to the ground in a matter of days. It was the same with DH at the beginning of Dragonflight.
This approach is really disrespectful to players who spend their real life time, to level a character, gear it etc. Why cannot you test it in the PTR before releasing it enough so people will be sure what they can expect?
This “fotm reroller” trend is really false, people just enjoy playing something that works. You cannot bash people for trying to enjoy the game. Playing class just because it’s a class is really outdated, people enjoy gameplay more than a lore, especially people who try to be competitive (at least a bit).
In the current state of the game you cannot be sure the class will perform well entire expansion, this is really wrong and I don’t know why no one ever mentioned it and people just accept how it is…

I think the reason is solely lack of skills and testing, and that is not because i dont like blizzard. I think it is a fact.

You guys seem a bit out of the loop, they’ve never balanced so much than recently in DF and all specs are all within a 10% dmg of each other, not sure the game has been this well balanced in years.
Because balancing is not easy since the class designs are not the same and some classes have different advantages in some scenarios. arena stlye pvp is doomed to be unbalanced due to the nature of class differences. that’s why i don’t do pvp in wow
The main problem we’re still living with is that since Legion they layered system upon system upon convolution upon complexity upon layers of layers.
Then they’d tweak, rework, hit it with a hammer until it almost worked so they could scrap it and start over.
We now have a more stable platform going forward (hopefully) with the Talent Tree system and reduced Borrowed Power lasagne of convoluted systems.
It will take some time (maybe even the whole expansion) to get this to a place where it is almost working.
Difference is we should be going into the next expansion with the same systems (or close as) and so we aren’t starting all over again.

Your mistake is thinking that they want the game to be balanced when in fact a massive portion of the money they make comes from shifting the balance all the time and watch the WoW token revenue stream boom. It is the only plausible explanation because for all the time they were told they don’t make enough changes, right now they make too much!
Take for instance BM hunter.
They just reduced Kill Command damage by 10%! That is literally the equivalent of taking away a talent point as there is one that adds 10% damage to it. Then Ret Paladin PVP nerfs you are seeing some spells 30-40% lmao. It’s like being given an amazing toy for your christmas as a child and then your parents taking it off you for having too much for with it.
That’s pvp, nobody cares about pvp.
That’s to compensate for buffing them too much in last patch, if you’re going to bring up something don’t purposely hide half of it.
Nobody cares in the community as in not a lot of people play pvp and still you guys get balance changes constantly, there’s even more coming next reset.
Maybe because…a lot of people care? Why would they make constant changes for something not a lot of people care about? Use some brain cells here please.

You know you don’t have to insult people when you didn’t understand what they are saying?
You post a random pvp clip like it’s a fact to prove how broken pvp is without any context or explanation except a snarky comment while nothing in my original comment mentionned pvp in fact if you used your brain cells like you’re asking me to do you would have realized my comment was about pve.
The fact that you felt the need to log in on an alt to like your own post is just the cherry on top.
Just like nothing in your original comment mentioned PvE??? You made a general comment on class balance in the GENERAL DISCUSSION in reply to a GENERAL thread about class balance.
??? you are one weird person. Fury Warrior brain fr.
My eyes.
Once again you’re not reading the entire sentence while being a troll about it, I’m simply gonna block you.
Maybe because its a relative young team not entirily someone with experience, look at it all the original wow devs are gone, and who left after the scandals? Many experienced devs left.
Actually it is except retri atm. Dor thz rest they are fine if they havent had a bug yes i look at u locks.

No.
Holy priest DPS is nothing compared to preservation evoker.
Why are his numbers so freaking huge?
Edit: Not talking about how much damage he is doing. But the actual size of his font.
Its kind of hard to balance a game like wow. You get multiple classes with multiple speccs each. And then you get the areas where these are used. PVp, raids,m+ or out in the world.
Its hard to get everything perfectly balanced in every single game mode without giving every single class the same tools and dmg output
Could you please enter the Bear room? We’d like to have a small talk with you… Please bring honey to bribe us.
