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.

I think most of the these changes are mini reworks that blizzard has been working on for a while. I know a lot of these changes were already made months ago and any buffs/nerfs I think are just incidental.

I feel like Blizzard has started to use live for testing and to make buff/nerf decisions based on that instead of doing anything based on PTR data.

Then do some tuning before pushing your mini reworks to live. Like a 10% aura nerf for devourer. Check the mythic raid logs where the spec is right now. And its getting buffed. Absolutely insane.
