Guys, it's mainly for 16+ keys.Everything is viable for 2-15. Only one that's near mandatory nowadays is boomkin on 10-15 keys because of utility.But otherwise, you can time keys with anything to +15.
looks like the balance team has done it again thanks blizzard for another balance tier where you could play whatever you want and not get invited to *!@#
Great article, Tettles!
There is so much moaning in the comments on posts like this. These analysis are useful and help give some perspective on why certain specs have an edge at a certain level or in particular affixes. If some of you spent have the time you're whining on bettering your gameplay, you would be able to make your own niche and get invited to other groups. Join the class discord, talk with the mods and class experts. There are helpful people in every single class/spec discord. The "I'm not meta so no one wants me" garbage ship sailed 4 years ago. At this point, you're choosing to complain instead of make use of the tools that are available.
There will always be underperformers in need of tuning. None of those performance gaps are vast enough to prevent the majority of players from running keys, however. Anything up to a 15 is doable with any class/spec composition that the players want to play.
Will all of you people stop accusing the articles for portraying things as they are not? They are simply conveying statistics... there is a a minor amount of conjecture, but this is a meta the top end are developing, not the poor Wowhead article writer. If you truly believe everything is good enough then go along your merry way and keep playing; this is just information about top 0.001% of players.
Problem with Blizzard is that they cannot balance the game or they won't. One patch there are a few classes which are strong, the others are bad, then they change the rules of the game on the run to sweet things up a bit with no real success. Remember how prot warr was OP in BFA? Next expansion is the other way around and so on. Seems to me they want to keep you playing 24/7 so you have all classes to max level and good gear (better multi accounts?) so when next expansion drops, you can rapidly switch meta.I play as main a resto shammy which was crap in BFA according to the meta, but I ran +15 keys in time and did raiding with no issues. I also play a prot pala as second, and switch my UDK to BDK just to start learning how to reactive tank. I have 190ilvl , went to Torghast layer 3 in a group and i was insta-shot by the first group. Even prot pala can mitigate damage better.I ended up in bfa to have resto shammy, prot pala, havoc dh, blood dk, holy priest, balance druid, fire mage and arms warrior. Now only the first 4 are lvl 60 and decently geared, my mindset is to have a main spec for each specialization since changing covenants requires grinding for renown again which is a pain and test 1-2 others to learn the playstyle. The other day while having my own +5 key, people in party asked me why they can't find my shammy on RIO, lol. I told them, just look at BFA score.offtopic: it's a good thing that i see a lot of locks and enh shammies in raids and m+ which wasn't the case in last expansion.TL;DRpersonally i won't switch to meta if i enjoy playing a few classes, i will continue to do so, regardless of articles like this or what the "community" establishes as "meta". Community should be read as MDI people and e-sports lads which do this for a living, so it's a job for them.
So wait. Why are DH crying about their class being boring and lackluster if they're at the forefront for tanks?
No offense but because of these ''Meta'' lists being more common other people can not find groups due to them.Rip my retri paladin getting an invite...
