SV still slaps. And it's back to being fun to play. I hated the two button rotation even if it did lots of damage.
You sure about demo locks?
I just don't understand Ret. We don't change as much as Shadow or Ele or DK. We have literally been the same basic concept since Holy Power was introduced and we SUCK. EVERY EXPANSION. Playing TBC Seal Twist and Wrath Divine Storm you see that… Ret debatably was more fun 10+ years ago, seal twisting is the only ceiling we have ever had. We are just consistently tuned so poorly. We are occasionally good in Arena but trash in M+ and Ret. I just don't get it. We don't have crazy survivability compared to DK, our movement is the worst in the game.
"Oh it's the burst windows, you can't be too strong." looks at fire mage and breath of Sindragosa
We are the only plate class with just 1 dps spec and it's been the worst of the 5 plate dps specs basically every expansion.
idk where ur getting ur info from and how you put destro lock far down, its still extremely strong
At the start of shadowlands the same song about holy priest was playing. Eventually they became viable. Ill stick to my class.
TLDR……
Priest have zero utility and zero mobility.
Ever since Legion was was hoping Arcane Bear was making aconeback.
I don't understand that Shadow Priest spell damage chart. How can you have such an absurd amount of damage from an extremely expensive spender (Mind Sear) cast without any measurable damage from so many builder (Mind Blast) casts? If that's accurate, yeah, the spec is broken.
erm… demo will still be strong in DF
Thanks Izen.
I swear people are misunderstanding/not understanding balance druid. It's so fun once you get the hang of it. They can literally get 5-6 of the cool shadowland mechanics all at once. Judging on the comments, it's also very obvious that it's quite unclear what this tier list is. Is it meta-ness? Is it playstyle/fun? Is it a mix? Is it the spec in DF compared to SL? Compared in what manner? You show parses of balance druid being on top but put them at the buttom, but reply to people that this tierlist isn't based on how fun the specs are. I just feel like you've rated the specs based on different things.
Man just realised how much I love your analysis of this game. You cursed me since I can’t stand many other content creators one dimensional surface level commentary. I have been following you since before shadowlands launched and you allways are my go-to info channel for wow. Keep it up man, much love
I've always wondered, are you Finnish?
Disagree with the brew master assessment, they went from viable to literally the squishiest tank in the game with the least amount of self sustain, and no one will be playing it in anything +15 in DF.
Isen can you please do a flute solo cover of Dire Straits as musical intermezzo for one of your amazing tierlistmeta videos?
Respectfully dont agree with Balances assessment. They play better then their shadowlands counterpart and are currently top 5 DPS in dragonflight Beta. Most well known balance players have also stated they like how balance plays at the moment and that its better then its been in a long time. Their nerfs basically put their damage on par with most of the top DPS specs. Our AOE is still incredibly strong and our ST damage is right up there.
As a boomie I have to disagree with you on them playing worse. In SL we would do more than half of our damage in our 3 minute Cd because of our mastery and the venthyr cd. With the new mastery we actually get to do damage outside of CDs. Though sadly the ramp up is slow and with the latest aoe nerf, we might suck hard on aoe
Frost DK legit makes me angry, i wrote so many posts asking for easy changes for this spec
Glacial Advance still doesn't work with ice cap, same goes for cold blooded rage. They don't even recognize it.
Also Death and Decay on a GCD feels SO awful, when you also have Remorseless Winter on a GCD. Makes the spec feel so slow and you waste important seconds you could be pumping big obliterates
And BoS needs to die out asap, it's been 6 years if not longer
ffs Blizzzzzz
Izen the only real dude out there, you look great btw!
You are the best bro
