    Legendary problems, no balance what-so-ever

    Some Legendary items are insane. Some specs have no good Legendary items while some have godly ones. Many Legendary items feel like an ability you'd receive at level 32 and you didnt even notice you got it because it does next to nothing and does nothing to change your gameplay.

    I think Blizzard needs to take a long hard look at Legendary item power and balance. They need to get ideas from high-end players as you can really tell Blizzard is completely lost when it comes to what makes some classes/specs tick.

    stop trying to gauge everything according to sims, ffs. Blizzard can't balance shit, they won't balance shit, and they don't need to balance shit because people will buy the game anyway - there's no need for it to be as balance as you require.

    Sims? You dont need Sims with this batch of Legendary items. If you know your spec/class you know instantly which are straight garbage (most are pure trash tbh).

    Playing an Unholy DK and made a waist using the Super Zombie one. It's a joke. Zombie shows up when target has died and stands there with a look of what do I do now. My mistake in thinking that could be fun.

    Some powers are for flavor, some are pure passives... I don't get why a mix is bad...

    Because a lot of people expect and demand a super duper power increase that has, historically speaking, come with the orange name of the various items. And anything that FEELS less than super duper, is OMGWTFBBWBAAAAAAAAAAD!!!!!!!1!!1! to those people.

    I don't think it matters at all.
    What matters is the end result and there dps seems to be pretty well balanced actually. (a few outliers need to be toned down obviously)
    It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

    What amazes me the most is that people actually think Blizzard will balance things in this game. This is the number 1 issue of this game. But let me say it again....BLIZZARD SUCKS AT BALANCING ANYTHING IN THIS GAME. The worst being classes. They never have done a good job of it and frankly never ever will.
    Be careful who you chat it up with here on these forums. If you are NOT for WoW and about WoW, people will report whatever you say and get you banned

    Wow, that sounds beyond horrendous. And this went live. Wow, that sucks.

    uh what? Some do almost nothing while some do tons of damage. They arent even within probably 70% of one another atm. Like the Zombie mentioned above that doesn't even do damage and is broken. Some Legendary items are absolutely worthless (Beastmaster was screwed royally). I dont think you couldve done a worse job intentionally.

    UH and Feral are a bit to good but in general dps is actually pretty balanced.

    hybrids doing 20% more dps than pure specs

    The only "balance" there is in WoW is Balance Druid.

    Yeah that distinction hasn't been a thing in a decade. This thread suffers from a severe lack of actual examples and data tbh.

    Yeah I'm not a fan of individual spec legendaries. There's too much that can go wrong. A ring/cloak balanced for physical/magic/healer or tank is better. Or weapon that certain classes can use is fine.

    Your post made my day Oh wait, no it didn't. You sound like a Roguemain who is just bad. But keep crying about every aspect of the game and your class while paying money to Blizz
