Looks like the Aspects got taken off the GCD, then.

Apparently with Beast Cleave in the mix, Worms and Chimaera were doing WAY too much AoE damage, so they got a heavy nerf. They're supposed to still be a sustained damage increase on AoE heavy fights, but not to the broken extent that caused such a nerf.

I dont see what is Blizzards problem,just because BM is the top hunter PvE spec now they have to overnerf the source of our power? I sense that we will be last in place of the hunter specs this expansion as well.

A nerf to the two AoE pets doesn't mean BM isn't still on top, which is where it was regardless, the last I checked.

Not to mention... AoE should not be a determinant of how good a DPS spec is, if your group is concerned about wiping because AoE isn't strong enough, then I can't imagine what the bosses will do to your group.

^ This. Strong AoE is fine and dandy but in the long run...doesn't mean squat. It's the damage on the boss that matters.
