Much better than The PoddyC ;-)
That thumbnail haha.
Shaman’s were good in DF, people just didn’t play them. Elemental is finally decent, so people swap between healing and damage now without worrying about needing to get AGI/INT trinkets. However, while Shaman’s are good, they have serious mana problems. One wrong use of a cooldown and you will not get the boss down. It’s an extremely difficult class to master.
Stop balancing the classes around the guilds progressing. If they could reroll to preservation and fix their roster in just two weeks, it won't kill them to do it again. That's the intelligent and fair decision for all the players not playing preservattion, or warlock in past tiers, or mages, ect. Stop holding balance changes because some guilds are progressing. By doing so, they are artificially favoring guilds who already had experienced players playing the broken specs or who already happened to have extra of the favored spec versus those that have none.
When to we get the cat race in the picture as a playable class?
I wish the mythic raids were tuned a little easier so that the "race" could be achievable by more guilds. I'm not saying the game needs to be ez-mode but these are definitely over-tuned out the gate for these specific guilds.
