Where time stamps 🙁
Fire Mage Lit Fuse got nerfed quite hard in the latest patch rounds iirc.
As always, blizzard boosting the same classes and leaving others on the bench.
Gotta boost the most popular classes
I feel this video is made before the last update to the classes. Most of them are not that overpowered anymore, especially arcane and fire mage, frost is now the king according to icyveins. Also affliction lock has a much bigger dmg output then demo and destro after the patch.
Bad list, doesnt reflect the testing people post on logs for beta and prepatch, but ok
Not a single word about moonkin.
So once again mage is the favorite child. As a bm hunter I'm disappointed that it's still boring af with boring af hero talents and they still won't allow us to spec any pet how we want 😑
The only thing I truly hate is removal of permanent pet for frost mage. Always loved my Water Elemental. I was actually hoping they will at some point add also fire elemental for fire mages and some arcane elemental. It feels for me like when they replaced druid's permanent healing form treant look with that rotten broccoli and even then was not permanently in that form. That literally made me stop playing druid healer. Not sure today, but have seen it is still by default rotten broccoli. Maybe there is something to do, but I have lost interest.
Affli one of the losers? That's not what Icy-Veins predicts
I don’t think Aff is right. It’s performing quite well. The patch has seen a lot of it bugged so the damage is lower due to a few spells not working properly but overall, it’s a lot better (damage wise) than it was. Just a shame about Malefic Rapture still being here…
Fire mage most boring spec in any game. Period. And im paladin main, trust me i know whats fun.
Burning rush doing less damage to you is a good thing…
A lot of the Devastation negatives got fixed/tweaked in between filming and releasing this video – namely they've seemingly improved the Dragonrage extensions. Firestorm is still forever a clusterfuck, and Devokers still have the "issue" of likely living in the shadow of Augvokers (at least until Blizzard add more support specs xD)
Affliction warlock is a big loser – the move towards doubling down on the infamous Malefic Rapture, even upping the shard generation chances for spamming the ability more also not only moves damage further away from DoTs towards this disliked spender, but also ups the impact rng has on your output – and I'm sure Affliction locks will tell you they already have enough rng as it is, both rotational and output. Even if you ignore gameplay and focus on the thematic side of things, the slow damage-over-time spec itself is now spamming a nuke spender is just off. These are bad changes, there's no two ways about it.
Priests do down after cataclysm ffs …
Come ooooon put the timestamps on the video
Affliction needs so much help at least in prepatch, I always played it and kept actually competitive numbers, until prepatch hit then I’m so far behind other specs with way lower ilvl and playing the rotation quite properly
Let’s be honest here, the answer has always been reroll mage, unless you’re a warlock.
why was this video so confusing to watch
there is a problem with your destro demonstration there was too many chaos bolts, for st you use rof now and only chaos bolt with the free ritual proc
02:10 Mage
06:03 Hunters
08:56 Warlock (w/o Affliction)
12:04 Ele Shaman
13:56 Aug Evoker
Everyone else comes after in the "losers" category
The comb over needs to be retired.
Losing shards from summoning tyrant was a bad bad bad change for warlocks it feels so clunky now
Bellular please, the A-10 Warthog goes BRRRRRT not brap that's something else.
One thing is for sure, they are going to rework a lot of the hero talents during the expansion, its a shame Blizz couldn't make all of them interesting and good from the get go.
Destruction section felt way off you run rain of fire in single target to get shards for a talent that gives you mastery on shards spent even in a chaos bolt build it does less damage then incinerate its a worse spender then rapture from everything I’ve done on beta
do you even play the game anymore
yeah some spec gonna do less dps but dosent mean people should avoid them , always nice to see what real good people with weaker class can do high dps
Hard disagree with MM Hunter.
Yea we got a rework… BUT! Non of the issues the rework has caused where adressed since. Dead silence for 8 weeks without any changes or responses. We can‘t get all AoE Talents because every Talent is an AOE talent. This leads to many dead Talents for example Rapidfire barrage and Killzone. To many talentpoints to unlock basic AoE wit trickshots. To many talentpoints for unlocking bais functioning of the spec so stady Shot giveing focus and Arcane shot cost reduction wich should be baseline. And so on. And Dark Ranger is so underwelming an creates unnecessary friction that makes me belive Blizz Just don’t care, becaus they have to take care of mages and there next rework.
So guessing rerolling mage for main instead of boomie, was a good choice ^^
I would so much want demo warlock that is a hybrid of the current one and cata era. Summoning of multiple powerful demons but no imp circus. It just freaks me out. And old hand of Gul'Dan was so much more satisfying. As well as molten core procs for immolation
Mages on top… why am i not f**king surprised. Sh!t never changes.
Ah, it feels good to be a mage. I love being the main character.
I'll never use Ascendance or Deeply Rooted Elements as long as it uses that fucking horrible model. In fact, I haven't used it since they took away our Ascendance glyph 8+ years ago.
So at the End Asmon's view point is that as long as it is Legal & everyone is doing it I cant say its bad.
