I Read This 7000 Words Dev Interview So You Don't Have To 

The shaman devs became evoker devs...rip shamans😢

There is nothingnwrong with having a decked out character 3 or 4 weeks after a new season starts, then you can play an alt and start over again. Playing a character for 2 or 3 months and not being done gearing would get boring imo.

Ian "No Solid Answers" Hazzikostas doing what he doing what he does best. Being aware of issues. Thanks for saving me the trouble of skimming the post.

The answer is super easy for defensives. You don’t take them away, but increase the cooldown and maybe nerf their effectiveness. Then you increase the rot damage and reduce burst damage.

Wow the private aura is such a nice thing

Im going to need you to summarize this into three words so I can digest it.

DK doesn't need a Raid buff. They are always brought cause when you need a Grip you Really need Grips. They also bring magic mechanic Immunity that can really trivialized certain mechanics plus Anti-magic raid damage reduction cd. DK is fine they are similar to Warlocks. Just like DK Warlocks dont have a Traditional style Raid buff but utility is good enough that it is like a Raid buff. Gates are either useful or not just like Grips Health stones provide a similar end result. Either the Health stone helps you recover from big damage or in the case of DK Anti-magic zone helps the Raid lessen the big damage event to help healers keep people up. DKs dont need a Raid buff like Warlocks they bring great Raid Utility you always want 1 of both in every Raid period. Shaman I think the best way to fix them is give all 3 specs Windfury Totem. And give Elemental and Restoration a twist give them a % haste gain in some way just for them so they get a little benefit from their own buff.

Good thing my cardboard house has air conditioning

m+ q for everything up to +10 with affixes and this game mode is for gearing only. and then keystones start at +11 without affixes for people who want to push. i am not saying that i am a fan of this but that's my guess on the rework of m+

What do monks bring to a raid?

Actually I am surprised he didnt ask for clarification, when asked about shaman and DK, what is this shaman? Never heard of this shaman thingy. Is that some kind of new TikTok trend? So there is hopium...

that interview basically said we understand playing healing isnt fun but we dont want to take the steps to make it fun again. If you want to have fun dont role healer in TWW because it will be same as DF. Very dissapointing.

Still waiting for that Shaman rework, while knowing it will sadly never come and thus the class is absolutely useless for yet another expansion

Ion: Warlocks just fine 😈😉

Why is Ian still in that position after all the horrible performance

Healing: I don't have much trust in Blizzard fixing this. I loved healing in Shadowlands but I've come to realize I did not have fun at all in Dragonflight. When everything hits for 90% of health bars it becomes too stressful to heal everyone back to 100% with limp noodle spells before the next hit while you have to also dodge mechanics and swat affixes. This interview makes it clear that healing will be the same in TWW. Time to do something else, either different role or just stop playing. I am not spending another 2 years with this. Healing is supposed to be a fun thing to do for an hour or two after work, being the virtual gimp for a group of internet randos is not.

Why couldn't they give us the scrolls from remix? This would be amazing gold revenue for inscription and would also remove the buff bullshit? or create a generic coverall buff provided by NPCs for Raids and no buffs outside of that? Would also remove niche picks for M+ wouldn't it?

REMOVE ALL AFFIXES

Just a reminder, if TWW keeps looking like a dumpster fire and just more of blizzard "taking player feedback into consideration" aka keeping things dogshit there's Dawntrail coming out and Elden Ring's DLC drops. Also dear Shaman players, the day is not coming where you are remembered.

Mythic raids should be flex 10 man min after world firsts.

SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAMAAAAAAAAAAAAANSSS why nothing about shamaans

NOTHING should be balanced with world first or mdi/tgp in mind... Tindral is a good exemple why you dont do that, it killed more guilds than it got killed lol

Ion needs to go man ...
