So now Ret is going to be complete shit in addition to playing like shit? That is annoying, cause I think most of us who like Ret would be willing to accept playing like shit if we could at least put out good numbers. But...bringing nothing in terms of damage on top of the spec playing like garbage?
Though the Boomkin nerfs are clearly deserved, doing 1.8x the damage of the next highest spec would turn raiding and M+ into "Bring boomkins and nothing else" for dps.

So in your first comment you said always and then in your reply you mention BFA repeatedly which isn’t “always”. Locks have been dominate for a while in Shadowlands. You can look at all of the best mythic+ runs this season and last season and locks and hunters are everywhere.
Watching MDI that was showing a cut screen with four of the best groups in the world all of them had locks and hunters.
Looking at Legion they’re all over all of the best keys timed for pretty much every legion season. Same for BFA season 1 then they dropped off for a few seasons. Locks were also gods in PvP in BFA and continue to be super strong in Shadowlands PvP.
No one feels bad for locks or hunters. They have been so dominate for a while now that a handful of bad raid tiers from previous xpacs don’t make up for that.
On top of all of this locks bring gateways, healthstones, summons and soul stones. They’re getting invites regardless.

Outlaw hasn't been fun since they added roll the bones. I'm so sick of my damage being tied to RNG. I really hope they've balanced it for rogues who refuse to take it, but i know they havn't, it's obvious with this round of nerfs hitting the decent part of the tree.
I've played combat since vanilla, and i've watched the fun of the spec turn into just pure constant maintenance to do even basic shit. It's turned into doing nothing but rerolling dice to pray for the 5 buff so you can do real damage.
I'm not making a envoker to main, but i worry about saying my main because maybe blizzard will go ruin the fun i've found in the new trees there.

Warlock being literally the most consistently well tuned class in the game somehow equates to "gutter trash", while also being basically impossible to die on. What a take.
Might need to adjust your quotation marks there. Unless you’re trying to insinuate that I’m saying brown nosers will show up to defend Blizzard.
Also, pointing out peoples knee jerk reaction to nerfs that bring specs closer in line depending on the situation isn’t defending Blizzard.
Some nerfs might end up being too much, and if they are then hopefully they will get adjusted again as buffs, but considering these specs were that far ahead of the median 35k that showed in the link I provided, it’s probably safe to say those nerfs are warranted.
To be fair, in the logs you posted the 20%+ of ret's damage was divine storm -> it was a cleave/aoe situation.
So how on earth is nerfing TV\FV by a whoooping 35% makes it better?
To be clear - as a ret I have no problems with damage tuning being a flat 7-10-15% nerf if needed, that would be fine. I just hate the way they do it. Really, TV weaker than DS?

I haven't played in 3 years, but I see nothing has changed.
Blizzard still has no self awareness and idea how to balance their game.
Basically just play a Warlock, you'll always have a spec that's top dps. ALWAYS, never play a melee because Blizzard loves to nerf them. Is Havoc DH top dps in Mythic+? nerf it for everything. Is Rogue owning people in random battlegrounds? nerf it for everything. Is Warlock wrecking everyone in everything? That's ok.
Play a warlock people
Anyone who did M+ in beta seen this coming from miles away. And more will come
Nice and "unpublished" change to DS now as well, after the TV/FV nerf as mentioned before, 22k FV, 23,7k DS... just logged in and DS is hitting for 15,4k now... thats an undocumented 35% nerf to DS as well...
But hey, we get a 2/4 Set Bonus now, that gives us almost half of the nerfed dmg back...
Looks at Rogue nerfs *look what the did to muh boy*
