Paladins Rising in the Ethereal Lands - The War Within Season 3 DPS Rankings for Mythic Manaforge Omega Week 2

Specs considered underpowered are generally played less and tend to appear weaker than they are.

This happens as many performance-oriented players tend to play the strongest spec or class, increasing the gap between top and bottom specs even further.

Position of specs for the 95th percentile might be skewed by alternative strategies and parse funneling. We're including the chart showing all percentiles' results to paint a better picture for all specs.

Tier acquisition will skew how balance looks for the first weeks of Season 3.

Encounter balance will skew Mythic data while not many guilds have progressed further into the raid, making specs appear further ahead than they are.

Comment by Bullfish90

This latest whining situation just supported my opinion against the good part of players who play ret and I mean psychological part behind choosing the main class. This pattern for the most part appears in the cases of hardcore mains, not for a season or few. It is just an observation from my part and not a psychological evaluation. In any case it's not good... A very off feeling... Maybe a champion kind of syndrome tied to narcissism, let's say?

Comment by gruloch

Okay let’s get the 3% guy working on everyone from Demo down to Assa, the 5% guy on Feral through BM, and then the 7% guy out of retirement for boomies.

Comment by KarthusTeemo

MM is top in the 95th and 99th percentile (when they hit the lottery) but the average/overall has them bottom half.

That tells the entire story for that spec lmao

Comment by Kabookiejoe

mythic class representation is pointless

Comment by blupache

Gotta love stats which are predominantly based off the first three bosses...

Be better off looking at the heroic stats this week still.

Comment by MarkElf

Time for other class discords to act accordingly.

Comment by Toxxiik

Aah, as boomkins we are glad to be back at our place, change scares us

Comment by DigitalDecaf

BM hunters like "well yeah we're bad our old 2 piece is still better than the new 4 piece"
