11/07/2018 11:35 AMPosted by MenardYou've mistakenly been hired by Blizzard. At the end of the a day their systems will figure out the mess up. But since this is make-believe, you have access to change anything. How much damage or good do you do before you're forced out?Surprised to see no one said this already but...1) Locate, aggregate and send myself all the information possible on every project being worked on, announced or not. Save it for later.2) Buy Wyatt a drink, dude probably needs one after this weekend. 3) Insist to the top brass they need to hire company "faces", personalities tha…

Can't comment on PVP, but honestly, there's still fun to be had. I raid, M+, play with friends. The social aspect keeps the game engaging, even when content is flagging a bit. 8.1 shows promise so far, and the core issues of Azerite gear are being addressed, if not at the speed and depth some would prefer. Class balance is something else, and I would say that if you're a warrior who wants to DPS, you'll be fine. If you want to tank as a warrior, be wary, as currently they are suffering at high levels of PVE content. That's not to say you CAN'T do it, it's just more difficult then a contemporar…

10/19/2018 01:08 PMPosted by LatestDoesnt bother me that much. I do not even play.I was just using it as a small example of the broader problem of arrogance w/in the current development team.It is arrogant to act above convention. The cumulative effects of arrogance is ironically, failure.I don't see anything in the OPs post as arrogance. Your remarks, on the other hand, throughout this thread, I cannot say the same about. You have failed to offer anything constructive, preferring dismissal seemingly. If you don't play, why would any changes of any kind elicit any response from you at all? Why…

There is a sense of arrogance in the current dev staff that permeates through the game and that is a big part of why subs are bleeding.Thats why I quit. I saw that arrogance w/ garrisons in WoD. They sucked, but their arrogance made them ok with force feeding it all xpac so they could save face on engagement and not look bad. That was more important to them than my enjoyment of a product I am paying them to produce.I'm legitimately curious; why is this the sticking point? It's a game, and ultimately, flavour and mechanics coming into conflict is not rare, and a choice has to be made. Given the…

10/19/2018 09:12 AMPosted by WatumaHailing the "buffs" to the spec without mentioning the elimination of Live!Lethal Shots is... a little disingenuous. Okay, I get that they want to break the back of the LS/Steady Aim build, because Azerite traits aren't supposed to be good. But doing so also eliminates the one niche in which the class actually performed almost okay.So, now we refocus (see what I did there?) on Rapid Shots. Okay, sure. But even if we get to cycle RS, well, rapidly, that's still nowhere near the damage output of buff-supported AiS crits. MM isn't topping charts even NOW, so if …

10/18/2018 03:06 PMPosted by Magharalso the lethal focus proc rate needs to be looked at. It feels like it has some kind of internal cooldown. It will be proccing just fine at approximately the 25% rate but then after a few procs you stand casting 10+ steady shots with no procs. Unfortunately, the blue post didn't go into the change made to Lethal Shots, but as it's entirely different now, I think they mean to move away from the current Steady Aim meta build. Which is good, that playstyle could get degenerate very quickly, and made every single other trait far, far less valuable by virtue of b…

Still would love to hear more ideas!

10/17/2018 11:54 PMPosted by ArwicThe single biggest problem with MM’s viability is BM. Why bring an MM hunter to anything when a BM hunter does everything an MM hunter can do better, plus more?- BM has full mobility.- BM has better dps.- BM has pet passives. - BM has hero.- BM has tranq shot.- BM has single target stun.- BM has good AoE.- BM doesn’t have to choose between AoE and ST talents on the same rows. How to fix MM:- Aimed Shot cast time reduction and/or usable while moving.- Make Posthaste baseline.- Tranq shot returning.- Distracting shot returning. - No target count restrictions on …

3) Rapid Fire: Okay, so the quality of life changes to Rapid Fire are great! The problem is...I almost never use it on anything but a Lethal Shots buffed cleave scenario. With the redesign to LS (which wasn't mentioned in your post, but I can surmise the reasoning has something to do with a certain Azerite trait,) and the new Trueshot both putting more emphasis on Rapid Fire, I'm curious; what is the intended role of Rapid Fire? It generates, it can be cast on the move, but Steady Shot does those too. It does more damage than Steady shot, but less than Aimed Shot, which makes sense, but it re…

First of all, I really appreciate the blue (Dev blue no less!) post and the explanation on your thoughts for these changes. I am thrilled to see that steps are being made to improving the spec, and am very hopeful to see more changes as the PTR progresses. And now, some feedback. For reference, I am a heroic raider (now AoTC after switching to this guy, because I missed hunter so much), I enjoy M+ quite a bit, but I don't PVP. 1) Keeping distance: I understand that these are PVP changes mostly, but the ability to kite a thing is very nice to have. I can't currently think of a situation where I…
