Yeah. It's one thing for a support class to do stuff that benefits others more than themself, like heals and such.Monica Gems wrote:Orc racial no longer affects ranged attack power, only melee.
Trueshot Aura and Abom's Might give melee 20% ap, hunters, only 10%.
There are no buffs to our abilities as far as mmo can tell.
This smells like a whole lot of bad.
I KNOW WHY THE CHANGES ARE MADE. KNOWING WHY DOESN'T CHANGE THAT WE ARE BENEFITTING 50% LESS THAN ANOTHER CLASS.50% - 10% is half, or 50% of, 20%.
But obv hunters are DPS not support - we have a few "miscellaneous" functions like everyone, a la CC, kiting and whatnot - but otherwise (with the minor exception of rhino bleed) everything we do benefits our self at least as much as everyone else.
Which is as it should be for any DPS class.
So I agree here. I don't mind the orc nerf so much - that's how it used to be e.g. simulating that at close range orcs could be particularly vicious - but marksman's buff now benefits melee DPS twice as much as the hunter himself? Great now bad hunters have a reason to turn it off so they can keep their DPS meter rankings. Woot.
