  1. I find that chart about Amirdrassil so hilarious. Despite fury warriors already being somewhat broken this season, so many of those fights are awful for melee DPS from the jump. You see rogues performing somewhat better but as a fury warrior I hate Amirdrassil with a passion. Council can kiss my butt.

  2. Strength melee atm suck. Why as a fury warrior is bloodbath doing 25%+ of my damage in an M+? Its beyond stupid class design, Why am I capped at 5 targets with rampage and bloodthirst and execute? Why does WW do Fuck all damage why cant it be like WRATH WW which hit like a truck? Stupid class developers who have no clue how to design and class and probably have only played the class to level 50.

  3. Volсoross dk context:
    Unholy is high due to the short battle time (about 3:40), the boss dies immediately after the second burst. Which is very beneficial for a spec with the strongest burst in the game and the weakest damage outside the burst (as a tank damage).
    Frost is high due to the abuse of the huge boss model – you can maintain almost 100% uptime of the set dmg buff due to the long flight of the chillstreak.

    Most bosses simply have bad timing for unholy dk bursts, frost without abuse is weak.

  4. We need to balance by top players tho and not average. Extremely few warriors in high keys (25+) and I believe like two for 30+ sure not every class represent. But still, there ain't no goal to strive. I got the legendary and Ilvl 488 but I can't compete with a demo hunter in m+ även but his Ilvl by 10

  5. Sad thing to see in these comments is, "I need axe to be viable". Literally everything is viable… look at raiderio, every single spec is at 28 or greater. If you really really must have a 29,30,31, then sure reroll to the flavor of the season. I sort of doubt everyone here is in the top 1% though. In the end, most good players are going to want a competent 95 parsing player more than an average joe meta spec. An axe isn't going to make up for lack of practice, dungeon knowledge, and cd timings.

  6. I couldn't imagine maining a Plate class. Honestly though. When is the last time any Plate class has been meta for more than a couple months? Ret has literally never been meta in M+ and in Raid has never been meta more than a couple months or one tier. Warrior is a meme class in M+ cause it brings nothing and is never topping damage in raid. DK dps specs are the same except for maybe Blood that is often good in m+ and unholy that is sometimes played in MDI which is niche scenario.

    I feel like Blizzard just hates Plate classes. I could argue that every plate class still needs buffs & some more utility..

  7. 1st. it doesnt even look like a legendary..is a red shadowmourne axe at best, 2nd..not rly that strong proc..not to mention is just damage..i meann..doesnt even feel like eg graphiuc of shadowmourne or TF etc. 2nd all spec that start bad..nowdays from SL, REMAIN BAD, speces should be balanced more or so..and if u get a legendary yes become OP, u get a legendary man..not a good item..legenday means unique..people must know this is izen..that hold the faking imba weapon, etc

  8. 1. I’m stunned u need to spend 350k to play a spec that then kind of competes.

    2. Curious that’s about the amount if a wow token.

    3. Just get rid of legendaries altogether.

  9. when u have a BDK in your comp , AMZ and grips are covered so there is no reason to bring a unholy or frost dk with a mediocre damage even with lego .. this is so stupid .. u only want a dps dk for the dmg which is horrifying rn ..!!

  10. Got it on my Fury warr last week, its about a 12k dps increase ..around 5% the on use is straight trash and hardly worth pressing even with latest buffs. Its very underwhelming. Only cost around 200k and 8 hrs I guess. On the plus side it looks kinda cool

  11. Not only have I yet to even see anyone get this, but I think it’s so shitty that not only it’s super rare, my DK is trash rn, AND on top of everything I need to get a wow token to even afford the damn thing. It’s bullshit.

  12. These types of legendaries just feel bad and are clearly outdated. No one wants to farm it. No one wants to spend the gold on it. No one wants to deal with the reality of potentially never getting it. M+ers dont want to feel forced to raid because, for some reason, this legendary and all others can only be acquired in raid. No one wants to be balanced around it. There truthfully is no upside to having these items in the game.

    I say this as someone who got their evoker legendary on their first Sark kill and I have two gold caps. The game would be better if these items didnt exist.
