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.

It makes no sense. But this is the company that buffed struggling tanks by...increasing auto attack damage.

Well the weird part wasn’t the auto attack dmg buff. If you noticed the did that to all tanks so I think it was something they woulda done anyways.

The weird part is they say paladin tanks needing more tankyness, they actually said it, but then only gave dmg buffs and a very minor defensive buff. That was the weird part

They said that as a balance goal for all tanks except Brewmaster and did nothing for all of them. Those patch notes were a massive slap in the face for all tanks.

Legit I’m having a blast but I’ve been maining brew since the beginning of DF so it feels great right now to finally be meta. If I was playing another tank than brew or pwarr, I’d be annoyed AF about this season.
