Poggers!
this doesn't solve the problem with report.When i'm OS because my shield is not up, i cannot heal myself.Please increase damages pushed report (i mean the mastery power). The current report is stupid. Did ID 26 yesterday before buff, 18 to 25k HPS on packs and not so much report to handle properly, just press healing instant butter on CD to ensure i'm over 90% life everytime (and my heal was at 30k hps to sustain group, especially me...)
This will not fix anything, at best this is a bandaid and if that is all we get in light of the DPS nerfs this is a insult.
The additional dodge on Pretense of Instability likely won't matter, especially in AOE, with cleave Blackout Kick stacking our mastery so quickly as it is. The increased healing and buff to Celestial Brew is nice, but doesn't really resolve sustained healing issues, as it's just larger shield/larger burst healing. Scaling with more agility as DF progresses as an expansion will progressively make Stagger better baseline, but some additional tuning is needed. I would love to see them revert the nerf to Strength of Spirit so Expel Harm is stronger as a baseline at low health and you're not forced to rely on Gift of the Ox procs when getting spike to low health. In general they seem to still be actively tuning many specs/classes and no doubt things will change even more in the first few weeks of Dragonflight, especially after Season 1 starts. Fingers crossed Blizz continues to iterate based on spec performance.
Brew is still easily the worst tank in the game right now
what a joke... buff stagger and bake in the 4p heal of keg smash into the "Stormstout's Last Keg"-talent... that would help
Still does not fix brews issue. Bigger bubble and bit more self healing wont help a monk when they get smacked by multiple magic spells in m+
Isn't the Gift of the Ox buff a bit over the top? It's gonna be like lay on hands now lol.
Honestly just buff stagger imo... buff the class specialty and make it more reasonable to clear and it doesn't have to be a huge buff, just enough to bring us in line with the other tanks defensively and we would be fine. The offensive nerfs were a little humbling but to be fair whilst it was fun to be second in dps in a lot of my dungeons i knew it wasn't fair. But there are other tank classes out there right now who are in the same place offensively as brewmaster (cough cough Vengeance DH) and they are flying under the radar somehow.
Gift of the Ox is very bad. Why you didnt buff Expel Harm that is brewmaster main self healing spell not Gift of the ox.
None of this will accomplish anything, BRM will still be deleted by magic faster than other tanks and does nothing to address the tiny HP pool the spec has, how hard is it to buff their HP and work on stagger a bit like the BRM community has been asking for? I personally don't see this as a buff but rather Blizzard fixing the fudge up they had with the 40% health and damage buff. BRM will need a bit more but I can't see it coming until 10.1 if we follow Blizzard's past trends.
of course Brewmaster needs to be OP defensively as well since it already does the most damage.Add in Windwalker which is broken in raid and M+ and MW is raid and we're there
