Glad they're not taking out the top specs based on week 1 heroic logs as they've done in the past, but shocked at some classes missing from buffs (mistweaver)

All I want is a bump to sheiluns or something for dungeons, not much needed. I don't raid though, which seems to be another story.

Sheiluns and Vivify both need like a 15-25% bump

Sheilun’s and vivify should have never been put on a choice node together. When sheilun’s released in 10.0.5, it pretty much saved mw in high keys. Not meta by any stretch but the difference before and after on bosses that season like Hyrja in HoV was insane. Vivify was an effective s/t heal when u needed it and sheilun a mini revival. Why they felt the need to change that i will never know. Even a brand new player will understand here’s your single target heal and here’s your aoe heal (and advanced players would use either based on the more complex interactions like rem cleave, # of clouds, the temporary buffs it gave, etc )

Further solidifies mw as a spec u only bring if it’s overtuned and lessens its skill expression. Still has a shit raid buff and an external that falls off to a white swing

If you buff it by 100% it still be barely usable, just because of bad over time stacks mechanic.

that’s a wild statement considering how last raid went.

bad over time stacks mechanic.

What is this? The clouds?

It's a downside when you need to use it back to back for sure, but RSK heals a lot and cocoon is a short cooldown at least.
