We’re getting closer to the release of 9.1 on the PTR, with it many changes will come to specs and classes, and therefore balance and Meta. So we take this opportunity to frame a Time Capsule of the state of Specializations in the Castle Nathria Raid right before any changes come in for 9.1 and take a look at how things are up to the 9.0.5 Patch of Shadowlands for Melee DPS in Raid encounters

IDK, Survival is fun enough to endure the low-tier status.

von.fyi
I don't like blizzard's (and some content creator) idea to make a class more "special" by removing from the others (like demonology metamorphosis, aoe cap…). I hope they do a second wave of unpruning with actual fun and cool abilities.
Ww monk is one of the best if not the best melee spec in the gsme for both raid and m+. I dont understand why u have ranked it below a paladin. Logs throughout the tier have showed this, even after bug fixes they are one of (if not) the best melee.
Survival deserves video on its own
You’re so wrong – frost dk breathe cleave is notably better than unholy on a handful of mythic fights
It's literally not how they scaled, they literally shot up after 3 rounds of buffs…
I really appreciate you finding spec footage to show when youre talking about that class 🙂
I Think u didnt consider the strong and weak points of some specs as well as their nieche uses at specific bosses. Arms for example shines in every execute window which is no doubt the hardest part of an encounter, making it significantly more stronger.
you handwaved a feral a lot even tho its arguably the best ST spec and very high on overall, only fucked cus they are not able to pad the shit out of many fights.
In the future, can you please put the name of the person the footage is from? Thanks!
I disagree with your assessment on Frost Dk. They are seriously underrepresented so logs are skewed. They have decent single target (could be better) and excellent burst and cleave aoe. Regardless, Frost always seems to creep up the rankings as an expansion progresses and they gain more crit. Most people hate on frostscythe but when your crit is high it is extremely powerful, and those obliterates hit like a truck. See you at the top on 9.2 lol 😂
Enhancement is not a Stormstrike roulette anymore… but it kinda is. You are relying on your Stormbringer procs during your Doom Winds window. If they proc you do good damage, if not you loose so much damage. Enhancement needs better proc chance on Stormbringer or significant buff to other abilities, like Lava Lash, Lightning Bolt etc.
Did u actually say Survival has shitty aoe!? Dude….
The raid footage in the back ground is so chaotic it's making me too anxious to actually listen to what he is talking about.
Jesus, this is a shit show. xDD
The demon hunter using fel blade on sludge fist damn near gave me a stroke
4:05 where can i get this DKs ui?
well as i watch this video i also notice that WW monks have the best logs from every melee dps in 95% and in 99%… with the same parses as retri palas and outlaw rogues…… sooooo what happened there?
feels good being an underdog and still beating top tier dps
Every time ww is good, it gets gutted and stays dead for most of an expac. It happened in wod and it’s happening again. >.>
arms was and still and will always be SHIT
I definitely want to see a video about how the scaling with gear level is showing up among the specs. Great videos!
I know this isnt a tank list. But they need to give Prot Pallies their old Holy Shield back. Then give us a version of Blessing of Sanctuary. Base pallies all off of block again.
Fury in S tier… what a joke. Serahline is one of the best warriors in the game. Watch how he gets #1 parses (or did a couple months ago when i was actually paying attention and still playing). He ignores mechanics and makes the healers focus him a bit so he can have 100% uptime. If you behave like a normal raider, you’re not going to beat a windwalker, rogue, or ret paladin. If you want the absolute ideal (which isn’t unnecessary), bring a prot warrior instead of a brewmaster
14:18 izen is a clicker
