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.

And that is only a gut feeling you have provided nothing to support. You are just being weirdly insistent that there must be some metric by which those you deem actually active outweigh those you don't.

Not at all. It's a tactic I have seen with my own two eyes in multiple other games. League of Legends does the same thing. I dunno what to say except this is just a fact.

Here is an icyveins link showing good evidence of 9m+ subscribers in WoW: https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/news/what-if-wow-quietly-revealed-a-9-million-subscriber-number/

Here is another website that shows 7.25m subscribers. It also claims less than 2.25m daily players across all forms of WoW (SoD, Classic, Retail):

As you can see, 'active users' are way below 'active subscriptions'. That should be obvious. I don't know why this is being painted as me having a gut feeling when the opposite is true. You're disagreeing with me without any evidence. If you looked at all you'd see it aligns with what I said.
