I really just want hunters to get nerfed to oblivion in MoP, not necessarily because I want them to stop decimating the bracket, lose hunters and some new class will take its place. *COUGH* BOOMKINS *COUGH*. But really just because of the sheer number of people who would have to put up with playing a gimped class or reroll, obviously the good hunters like Felix and such will just take the hits as they come and still piss on people, but what about the other, what, 90%?
I just think it'd be a nice change of pace.
 
Yes, hunters suck, and i wish they were gone from this bracket forever, but unfortunately that won't be the case, but for some reason blizz is trying to "balance" low lvl pvp and a bunch of other classes are getting buffs in mop so basically everyone will be viable, hopefully this encourages people to roll something other than hunters.
 
i hope they dont talk shit about druids in MoP because druids might be little op :)
 
..what Dubbs said...its not hunters...its the people who like to play the OP class because its OP. come MoP they'll all migrate to whatever the flavor-of-the-month is and everyone will be cussing that class.

But, in fairness, hunters are not just a little OP in this bracket. They are /faceroll OP and I can't see any other class getting buffed to the ridiculous level hunters are at right now.

You must not have the faith in Blizz that I do. I believe that they will probably screw it up again on a different class, and boomkins will be able to tick you to death by dotting you twice or something. To do otherwise would be completely out of character for them.
 
^This. Anyone who has played this game for a few years or more knows the script. Don't expect balance. Simply expect the distribution between OP and UP classes to shuffle. Even if Blizzard somehow miraculously got pvp balance just right, it would be doomed like a perfect snowflake falling on a summers day. They'd have to change something eventually, at which point we'd be right back to square one.
true. they fuck shit up almost every patches they have

yet you still play, despite blizz being the worst balancers according to blizzard's playerbase
 
I think the trouble is, this could end up just like how Cata dungeons got nerfed to be like WotLK dungeons. All those players who are simply bad will, come the expansion, end up whining on forums that they can't play any more because it's too 'hard', and Bliz could end up just screwing it up all over again.


Bliz are just shitty developers. A good developer does what's called iteration. They take what they have and develop it, making subtle changes over time to improve on it. Blizzard just repeatedly scrap what's broken, sometimes years after they made it and with no iteration at all, only to replace it with something equally broken, that also will not get any iteration (see abilities and talent trees for a fine example).

They made huge changes to how the launcher works, which should allow them to make patches to the game on a week by week basis. They could have fixed the massive class balance problems before endgame very simply, by shifting the levels at which classes get abilities, or by buffing certain abilities only at higher levels, through talents, or the passive abilities classes get at higher levels.

Instead they left the game an unbalanced mess since they first fucked it up with Cata. Why anyone should believe they intend to fix anything in MoP is beyond me, when their history on the issue right up to the present, points at them saying (not doing) just enough of the right thing to keep people paying (and buying MoP), then carying on as usual once everyone has forked out for the expansion (compare that to how fast they fix issues with endgame raids, with patches for those coming out sometimes next day after the issue is raised, even if hardly anyone is doing that content yet).


I'm not going to be paying up until I see not only balance at the point MoP is released, but a commitment to improve upon that balance in the 5.1 and 5.2 patches (and even then chances are I'll just be paying to play some other game from a better developer anyway).

you gotta remember they have 10M + people that they are trying to please and they would rather cater to the bigger crowd of scrubs because it is easier.

anyway on topic, i do hope that low level pvp gets more balanced. i mean when i get under a 3KB to death ratio in a battle ground that we win, i feel like i played poorly.

things that i want is :
Hunter damage nerf

Paladin healing nerf (it's kinda crazy)

big warlock buff in exchange for the removal of bane of doom. getting killed with a 700 BoD crit after a fight is pretty annoying, but i guess that is makes up for the fact that your other spells do nothing

Warrior mobility buff: (it's happening)

and the rest is pretty decent.

As you said, they are buffing warrior mobility. They are also nerfing Hpals by removing Protector of the Innocent, and Doom is gone from Locks. Instant gibbing from Rets will go down with their damage (TV lowered).

Feral mobility is being buffed, Balance damage should go up, and Shamans are getting more mobile heals. Basically, as of the talent calculator now, the ONLY major imbalance I still see is Hunter damage. If they greatly tone down the coefficients and give them steady shot on the move, things would be perfect.

They're not terrible balancers for endgame, but even though they have low level pvp available they don't really care about keeping it balanced.

I still play because for getting my pvp fix, free is not a bad price. I don't know of any other mmos that are free and offer almost non-stop round the clock pvp like this.

If GW2 is any good I might vacate for that. WoW is just my "for lack of an alternative" game :)
 
Even at endgame there is no balance in wow, MLG refused to broascast wolk arenas because it was so broken, you might remember this (there was an interview on this).

Wow is "balanced" for 5v5 encounters and raids, 1v1 has never been a priority. 2v2 in arena was always broken, gets better in 3v3.

Blizzard is good at balancing, starcraft is one of the best esport game ever. It's just that the wow concept is old ; having tons of bracket is impossible to balance anyway, especially when you can use pve items and there is so much gap with racials, difference of lvls, etc.
