Discussion about Beast Master

[caiquee1]

Actually beast master hunter is the most boring class in WoW.

Im not talking about balance. Class have lost his fantasy, we need an improved rework like Demonology Warlock.

What do you think about?

BM was my main spec since mist of pandaria. Warlord, Legion and BfA made it the worst spec in WoW.

Bruh, you get 2 pets out at the same time.

I enjoy BM more now than at any time in the game's history. True, it has fewer buttons to push than many classes, but there's a good bit of subtlety to maxing out dps by managing your frenzy stacks, keeping barbed shot up, cramming as many Kill Commands as possible into Bestial Wrath, using beast cleave to your advantage, and having great survivability and utility, on top of great damage output.

If anything ever needed fixing, it was pets auto taunting, but bfa even fixed that by turning off growl in dungeons.

So no, I don't think BM needs a rework.

[Niroshi]

BM works fine as it is, what it needs rather than a rework is additional layers. Every class needs this at this point.

[Cyanu]

ffs man, BM has never been better...

from a braindead spec (which it was till now) it finally has a few tricks to seperate the dedicated beastmster from the fotm reroller

and finally the active talents outperform the boring passives (having mostly Chimaera Shot in mind)

While I prefer Mists' version of the spec personally, I agree that BM is in a pretty good place gameplay-wise atm. I quite enjoy it.

[Queen of Hamsters]

BM is in a nice place and far less "braindead" (buzzword) than it used to be.

I just don't enjoy the GCD that they imposed on us.

[Foolicious]

Having both cd's on the global cooldown feels a little bit odd, but i really enjoy bm.
I am glad they replaced dire beast. it always felt weird to summon beasts in the seat of the pantheon or in the lower levels of tomb of sargeras so frequently.

Bm is a really great example of how you can make a spec enjoyable and feel impactful without artifact weapon and a lot of buttons.
Every ability actually does something. Thats something a lot of classes lack right now.

It's sad if you dont like it anymore, there will always be people who liked other versions of a spec better but i dont think it needs a rework anytime soon.

To be fair, Chimaera Shot isn't exactly an exciting ability. A fire and forget button on a 20s CD with no spec synergy what-so-fucking-ever... There are indeed quite a few passives that are way more interesting and engaging.

Please no, Demo is completely garbage right now, nobody plays it.

BM is easy to play, but challenging to master it, deciding betwen barbed shot and kill command is sometimes harder than you think.

[krille20]

Most specs feel worse now than they did earlier expansions, so no BM is not special in that regard. It really doesnt need a rework.

Tbh deciding between KC or BS is not that hard. Atleast not for me. BS has priority over KC if you lose out on BS stack by using KC. Thats basically it.

However, i am using a WA that keeps track of my BS buff so i know if i can KC or not, depending if you have a tracking WA or not then i can see why it would be a bit difficult.

[Kayagurcu]

BFA Bm is the most closest Bm to MOP Bm which was by far the most enjoyable Bm throughout wow history.

[renroval]

BM gameplay is actually fun for me. I just wish we had better single target DPS and burst AOE. Feels like our single target is subpar now after the nerf and we're not scaling as well as other DPS specs. Hopefully some tuning pass helps us

[threads]

BM is real nice its like MoP hunter greatest hits. you wanna fix a boring spec talk about MM, that shit is 2 buttons now.

[Xorzor]

Please no, Demo is completely garbage right now

I lost interest in Demolock only because the Voidwalker has become like wet tissue paper in terms of defence. It was the opposite case in Legion.

[Outsider24]

I love BM oh how do i miss my 2nd pet though. Was a cool feature =(

[wewe]

Rotation wise Bfa actually made some good changes to BM. It no longer is the braindead spec of wow. To rotation got pretty fun with how frenzy/barbed shot works.
Spec fantasy wise It could use some work. The way it plays now doesn't really scream BM to me.

[Sencha]

BM was one of the most boring class in Legion. Now most dps specs are boring.

[gushDH]

Saying BM is boring is the same thing as saying "this type of music is boring". It's not for you, it's not something general. Get over yourself. Play something else.
