Who are gonna be the chads keep playing their WEs after the nerf and who are the loosers that will switch to another classes because QQ and skill issue ?
we'll see in the next episode !!!!!!!!!
I’ll keep playing the class. Players and casuals will still die to simple AW + WB spam. However, the class mechanic as a whole is messed up. We have tactics like:
* Bleeding Edge: 25% armor penetration after using a finisher.
* Frenzied Mayhem: +25% damage on finishers.
* Whirling Blades: 33% higher chance to gain Bloodlust, supposedly allowing us to use more finishers.
Yet we don’t actually have that many finishers. Removing the range from our finishers was a big deal, and one entire tree—Suffering—has no proper finisher besides Witchbrew.
* Agonizing Wound > 5 Bloodlust Puncture
* Agonizing Wound > 1–4 Bloodlust Sacrificial Stab
It’s very odd. Our best “finishers” don’t even feel like finishers; they’re basically self-buffs that say, “Here’s more damage for your Agonizing Wound.” That’s why WE feels like a one-button class.
I took a break from the game around Ranked Season 4 and came back around Season 17 or something. Honestly, that entire MDPS patch achieved basically nothing for WE.
Even after the latest PTS changes, it’s still AW + Witchbrew spam all over again, with Flanking, ToB, Brute Force, and Increased Pain.
