      “What’s weird is fire is the only spec getting nerfed in single target” “These nerfs are fine”
      Bro since when is it chill to get nerfed? Someone has to be the top damage dealer, the second mage is number 1 a mage himself is like yeah totally chill nerfs and sounds like you’re asking for single target nerfs to the other 2 specs, cringe

    i think the reason they only nerf mage is because we have The Great Push next week and all teams will have some time to reconsider their team comp. Right now pretty much every single team is running Bear, Shadow Priest, Aug invoker, fire mage, and holy paly.

    In my opinion frost and arcane didn't really deserve this nerf. But fire hell yea. especially reduced damage beyond 8 targets. But tbh they should look into aug 1st before doing mage nerfs. To me it seems like mages (especially fire ) benefit from aug more then other classes. Aug Fate mirror looks kinda busted and it should be looked into.

    kinda weird that 2 lock specs and 2 dk specs are in the top 5 in wcl overall and mage is the only one getting nerfed, i think they are still traumatized from nyalotha fire.

    • @phulcq6716
      @phulcq6716 Рік тому

      Probably true, people are mega paranoid about fire. But also demo lock and unholy DK are definitely getting a whole bunch of damage that should be going to the evokers and fire is still quite far ahead of second place on the pure ST fights. So they probably aren't as much better than everything else as fire is.

    Like you said, the aoe nerfs seem fine. But the fire st nerf is odd. The second you don’t have a PI or evoker buffing you in ST, fire is meh ST.
    Frost is just too many buttons now for now real gain. Going from MILF to now using CS, GS, and RoF is just a big shock

    • @Relativizor
      @Relativizor Рік тому +1

      Fire Mage has been a top M+ spec for all of the season, even before the rework. It's just that ranged dps are being somewhat suppressed by Shadow Priest being dominant. In fact, Fire Mage has had a larger contribution to high M+ scores this season than every other spec in the game.
      The rework buffs them to the point where it gets unhealthy for the diversity of M+ compositions. It launched way too hot, and this quick balance change is necessary.

      @@RelativizorI’d be interested on where did u find that data. Because as the other fellow mage said, Fire hasn’t been “too”, he surely was good but not at all top, specifically you can see that on the stats, it was just a minimum group of people that first of all were able to pull it off, and even a smaller amount that pulling it off were able to use it competitively. Yet Shadow Priest, Warlocks, and some other classes has actually been too tear for months without even getting punished.
