nerf warranted?
then every ranged should have their damage nerfed by 25%, easier classes like hunter,mage,shaman etc by 35%. until the easiest melee is above the easiest ranged by at least 10%. this is your logic and it's "warranted".
druids are fun as fuck too, big toolkit. nerf those fuckers cause too many tools.
dk has amz, what does it need damage for? nerf that fucker down
rogue has evasion, cloak, feint, vanish, stun stun blind sap poison slow. too much utility, make it only deal CC.
plus countless other examples.
this nerf has affected me personally only for m+ cause i always pug and nobody wants a low ST dps esp on tyranical.
the current meta enforces range so heavily i don't know what blizzard smoked.
ranges have aoe dmg, ST dmg, CC...plus as i've said before only 1-2 dungeons are interrupt heavy where melee is usefull.
affixes are worse on melee, damage is worse on melee, you fail more in melee thus forcing healer to make harder decisions sometimes.
was all this warranted? i fail to see it. if i'd be a healer/tank i'd only take the ocassional sub rogue/venthyr unholy/ww monk.
rest are worse than mouthbreathers.
i fail to see how this ranged meta was warranted in m+ or how amz has any place being on a DPS.
they unprunned some classes but havoc at least got fucked. we're (havocs) the boomkins of BFA where you'd bring one for trees on fortified, we get invited if perfect score on fortified weeks for DPS. (easily replaceable with a class from above but people are sticlers for rio, thank god)
this is the impression i've currently formed on SL as a mostly solo player.
this is also not a cry for buff havoc, some classes have to be weaker than others.
it sucks but it is what it is. i will keep trying stats/builds till i get closer to the fotmers at least in aoe
don't even get me started on pvp.
