From the standpoint of a 2500 xp PvPer it feels like this class was designed for cavemen to play. It really is that thoroughly stupid.
And Legion PvP more generally is also thoroughly terrible. The most successful team compositions are those that run 2x melees and just do their PvE rotation 24/7, never untargeting the weakest member of your team. The balance is terrible; the dumbing down of gameplay relative to previous expansions is even worse.
