I want to talk about the recent Uldir nerfs but I've kept the title non-specific so the discussion can be more general.
I'm torn on the idea of blizzard continuing to nerf Uldir. Sure, nerfing raids has always happened, but I'm never happy when they do it. My main point is that it's doable without the nerf and we already have reorgination array and gearing which is an inbuilt nerf over time; why nerf it more?
As someone that's progressing on mythic G'huun it feels kick in the teeth to those who have been trying hard to get cutting edge. Now when we get the final kill in the raid we've put months of effort into (working to keep a newly established roster strong, despite people not always showing up. And all the other things guilds have to deal with), the reward and satifsation is lessened, through no choice of our own, because we know it's not the 'real' g'huun we killed.
I understand some will respond with, 'well if you're not good enough to kill it by now then it get better and maybe next time you can get CE before the nerf.' In some ways I understand that, but where's the cut off point? I certainly don't want Blizzard to hold my hand in Mythic. And for those that earned CE before I feel like an imposter of sorts. It seems very odd to me that one of the hardest achievements in a current patch, getting cutting edge, is made easier overtime, past out getting geared and having RA, so more people can get it. That's not how achievements should work... Don't hand me cutting edge if I'm not good enough to earn cutting edge. I don't want G'huun nerfed. It's totally against the idea of rising to a challenge.
There's another part to this discussion; some bosses actually need nerfs because Blizzard designed them badly in the first place. The initial nerf to Mythrax spawning orbs on melee was a welcome change (though not needed to kill the boss, clearly). On the other hand, the number of Bursting Boils on G'huun seems to me just a difficulty decrease and I can't agree with that.
What do you think about the recent Uldir nerfs?
