Yes, it did. So what? It doesn't make cata explosive shot any weaker.
Hunters, warriors, shamans, warlocks, mages...? They're all playable if you actually know what you're doing.

Cata explosive shot is gone lol.It is garbage now
Well not the way i meant ofcrouse anything is viable but other classes are more potent than others;.I meant if you want to ''have an edge'' then you should play one of the classes i listed in the other quote

Yes, and I point that out daily to crying hunters complaining that are

Gotta disagree on this one, Vdog. Get on your mage and attempt to play offensively (rather than being solely CC-oriented; imagine, a damage class doing damage!) and get back to me on how well it works against anything except for war/lock/other mages.

I did say that you have to know what you're doing
They're both playable in a CC oriented playstyle, and yes it is incredibly stupid how destro locks struggle to outdps a druid spamming rejuv.
I'll give you that both classes are still powerful CCers. That's not solely what the classes are intended to be though; clothies should absolutely deal more damage than anyone else because they are the most vulnerable / have the weakest defense. In f2p's current state mages and warlocks don't have any business dealing damage; only frost mages and destro locks can attempt to say they are damage dealers - and even that damage is laughable.
Additionally, considering other classes already have their main CCs at this level, the two don't have any claim to fame other than that they have spammable CCs.
I'd go out on a limb and say that they are the weakest f2p classes right now, by a large margin.

Just because they're the weakest doesn't mean they're unplayable. You can still impact a game on a mage or warlock, which is what I was referring to.

rogues(f2p) are criting 1k Ambush and 1k eviscerate. now imagine lvl24´s. i think that they are balanced if they are fighting agaisnt a healer.
if they buff the other dps classes we can actually have a balanced bg. without having to change healing power, it would be crazy OP. everyone doing high damage and high healing... oh dreams....
This is Madness... This is F2P Bracket!!!

Fair enough, I can't say you're wrong there. If I were leading a premade, I'd still take practically any other class over either, though.
It sucks to see my favorite two f2p classes move from somewhere in the middle (with relatively high skill caps compared to others!) to bottom of the barrel with practically non existent skill caps (lololol destro lock
)/patiently waiting for a buff to damage

I don't think thats fair. I sat back and watched a Destro Lock destroy a Ret, through a bubble and a stun. The Ret and the lock were on equal terms in gear (both had full F2P chants and BOA's). I think Destro is in a good place, but their damage is outshined by the fact that each team is made up of 50% healers.The only class that they MIGHT have a problem with are rogues, but thats a given. the only Warlock I ever lost to on my Rogue was Hu, if my memory was correct. this was before 5.0 however, but even then it was no small feat for a class that has virtually no defensive CD's and if they got locked out of their shadow school were basically screwed. Now each spec, except for Affliction because their damage is awful right now. they have a snare which was need pretty bad, and a gap opener in the Demonology spec on a ten second CD which is almost better than blink. Just add in an extensive supply of anti-venom and a player who isn't bad and we have a pretty good thing going on! Though I'm basing this on all the warlocks I have seen so far.
