Love you<3
Not first
my man
I hope they do fated raids from now on, i hate when a good raid becomes irrelevant after it's tier is done
Boomies will need a lot more then 15% buff to Starfall to be relevant
Well , the change to the ignore pain is nice but let's be honest .. 4 season , 2+ years to come up with a "hmmmmmmmmm we NOTICE that prot is struggling with magic dmg and unblock damages" …
That being said , ignore pain cap was based on the amount of full ignore pain. But I was something nice in a way since you could play around that in order to have an increased cap , using offensive cd such a avatar to increase of based cap of ignore pain ( since it was scale depending on your attack power).
I still see it as an up
I'd rather to see dots buff then starfall.
Where are the healer balance changes lol
FYI, pooping right now.
No havoc changes? their AOE is non existent and needs a massive buff
Willing to bet the 'adjusted count' is reducing the count to compensate for the new affix removing count from packs.
The class nerfs are all pretty tasteful. Usually classes go from being very strong to borderline unplayable post nerf. Destro and SV look like they will be just fine if people enjoy them.
Yo Drat, how are you not at 100k bro? Hope you get there soon! you deserve it!
So surprised that gavel is untouched.
give me old warrior soul for my Shadow Priest.. omg I'll be so happy ;D
No DK nerfs? 😔
No Affli buffs 🙁 wish bDK got tuned down a smidge
no havoc changes is just shocking
Healer M+ balance goes COMPLETELY ignored, like usual.
Valor cap removed at the start of Mythic+ season 4! That should help with obtaining KSM with a shorter season.
zero changes to healers??? all of sepulcher as well wtf
And what did they do for feral? Jupp, Nothing!
So they buff pala prot while leaving bear unchanged and nerf monk without buffing ST while being the worse ST in the game but they buff sv and warlock ST which is way higher than monk's to compensate the nerf, sure blizzard thank u, bear are a joke pure paper, and u thought it was good to buff pala instead, sure, and blood dk no changes… also gg nerfing scale, now my bear will be more useless first week and if i want a decent trinket i'm obligated to raid, because there is only the street's one
Would rather have had a numbers nerf than the blasphemy nerf that we got tbh.
Took them less than 2 years to realise that shadow aoe was shit 👌
I was hoping on a unholy dk buff
Bro , no havoc buff? Aoe ist pain in the ass
The changes to trinkets sound good, but removing and nerfing scale just means that RDM and Aegis are turbo bis for brewmaster, and playing keys without raiding is going to hurt even more than it used to.
These were already bis at 252 this patch, and nothing from the dungeons of season 4 comes even close really.
There is something funny to me about the line from the Destro nerf, "This is a big shift so we’ll be monitoring feedback closely and will adjust in the future if needed," being copied and pasted directly from the original postponed nerf from June 24th.
We ran the numbers, and this nerf won't be enough to keep Destro from dominating high end m+ but it will completely dumpster them for most raid fights. The single target buffs aren't even close to enough to make up for the loss in single target. They haven't responded to any of this feedback in the last month and then went through with exactly the original nerf.
It was OP, it needed a nerf, but this is a pretty sloppy way to do it IMO and that last line feels pretty disingenuous in this context.
I really respect the time you put into covering updates and content changes. It makes the information like 10x less tedious to track and parse down, so huge thanks!
So no dk nerf. No holy priest nerf. They barely nerfing ww monk and survival hunter. Just another season with a trash meta.
What do you guys think about the shadow priest buffs? Enough to make it viable in high m+ keys?
So instead of nerfing Destro lock, they are instead buffing it… WTF.. destro was already kings of everything warlock and now they will be even stronger? talk about moronic balancing..
best review of wow stuff by far!
I think the nerfs to "old" dungeons trinkets (Scale, IQD) is disrespectful to the work that people who played in Season 3 put in to grind out vault slots for weeks for a chance to get them. Given the REALLY poor selection of dungeon trinkets available as a whole, this makes running raid content mandatory for people who only enjoy running M+ content in order to have any chance of staying viable at a high level gear-wise. They are already jacking up the ilvl of items dropped/vaulted from M+ and raids. Why nerf gear we've already obtained in preparation for the season when there are no functional equivalents available in M+ content?
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised to see the meta stay Destro lock, SV Hunter & WW Monk. The Destro and SV nerfs are hardly bad enough to take them out of the meta RN. Mage didn't get touched so I suspect SV Hunter will still be your go to lust class to bring. Soft capping AoE at 8 targets and a 10% dmg reduction on wildfire bomb is hardly going to take them out of being viable and most likely still the best hunter spec. My only curiosity is to see how Rogue fits in here, depending on how many "Skips" are necessary to time high keys, you might be subbing monk out for rogue.
Thy might have nerfd old warriors just cus how it scaild up
i'm furious as fuck with the bloodscale trinket nerf
there isn't one god damn good trinket for tank FFS
if i can't raid i'm f*ck*d
Great video. Thank you
They can try and make old 278 trinkets not bis all they want, unless they make them useless, they will be bis. As a Guardian Druid, my only choice is IQD and Soleah/Shard.
ye…balance….no buff for retrys or ferals…
