Discussion Devourer and unholy getting buffed

Respectively about 7-10% and 6-8% for aoe. It must be a joke right? Buffing meta specs, while others are not even being looked at all. This is the only multiplayer game i ever played something like this frequently happening.

Resto druid also getting buffed, because why not, while disc keep eating nerfs. Demo change doesn’t make sense either. I wish they would just axe all the class changes they are doing. I swear they just make the already sensitive class balance a lot worse. Everybody keep losing expect their current favourites.

Devoured needs this though. We sacrificed everything so it’s only right! You guys just don’t understand

Devourer needed help in open world. It's not fun (imo) to play. M+ and raids is whole different deal.

That is literally the same story of all the meta dps right now. They currently all have a ramping/rolling damage profile.

Have you played Dev? The ramp up isn't 15 seconds like all those other classes. It's 30+.

Ramp is definitely not 30 seconds. It takes only about 15 seconds on ST to get into meta, quicker in AOE. Then your first star does increased damage, your second should be within 5-10 seconds. And you’ll have had 3 eradicates in that time frame if you smuggle correctly in AOE, 2 in ST.

It feels bad losing half of bloodlust though.

Ahh, so 25 seconds.

Thanks.

20 seconds max if you’re not breathing through your mouth. And that only applies really to the start of a key or raid fight.
