Not trying to sound whiny or cynical, but I actually liked the pruning in Legion, so all this stuff looks daunting to my aging fingers, wrists, and eyes.
The Night Fae ability concerns me; it's going to be very desirable (dare I say "required"?) and managing it will (for me) be annoying because there's already so much going on in a raid encounter that, 16 years on from launch, I have trouble keeping up with things now as it is!
So, in SL, it'll look something like this:
- DPS "rotation";
- Maintain Seraphim and/or Inquisition buffs on yourself;
- Boss mechanics, which seem to get nuttier and more manic with each expansion;
- Make sure to glance over at raid frames and be ready with your macros for LoH, BoP, BoF, Cleanse, and once again, BoS;
- Have macros set and bound for Blessing of Seasons buffs, and keep them rolling;
- Coordinating with other Night Fae paladins in raid to maximize the buffs on one or multiple allies;
- Don't buff them too soon or too late.
And if you don't pick Night Fae for raiding, LOL?
From what I've seen, Venthyr looks like it'll be the pick for players who primarily do M+.
