I guess this would be a nice exciting tool for brainless metaslaves... It's classic WoW just play what you want, everything is viable in SoD. Have fun with it.

there's definitely specs that are worthless, but i agree that you should always play what you want, unless you wanna join parsing groups

I mean, there will be one viable build and thats it. Kinda overkill

if you have ever used these tools or like u.gg before you would know that is not the case. Popularity is vastly different than what you see at the top of the usual tier lists. As it turns out, most people don't care if you're playing a tier list maker's favorite spec, they just care if you do enough numbers to win, and that's what these types of tools confirm for us. Especially in SOD.

If you timed how fast a boss died by a C tier vs. an S tier, how many more seconds would it be?

15-30

Oh joy. Yet another way to help the 'cOmMuNiTy' gatekeep and reduce their fellow players to nothing but a number.

Remember when the reason we all wanted classic back was for the nostalgia, memories of friendship and adventure in a fantasy world where we could escape from our real lives to have a little fun?

How did we get here. Why does it have to be this way.

Well, metaslaves exactly is NOT braiddead, thats why everybody play their build, and yes you can play any build in SoD becouse its classic and it not hard to be good. Forum hamster.

In the "Clarifications Regarding GDKP Restrictions" post, blizzard stated "We’ll enact this policy alongside the release of Phase 2 of Season of Discovery on February 8, 2024, at 1:00 p.m. PST."

afflie warlock does more dps than destro and shares bis gear with shadow priests only but noone plays as shadow priest so afflie warlock has free loot for 2 items on bfd and also shadow wrath items are not super expensive on AH. Of course this useless site called archon even doesn't mention about it. just dps warlocks are destro for them and chaos bolt popularity over 90% vs some % of haunt. ridiculous nonsense

Comment by Hadware1

If affli lock were better, you would find way more affli locks on top 50 warlock logs in warcraftlogs, which is not the case, 99% of logs there are destro, you basically saying that the top warlock players in the world are clueless about what is the best warlock spec, im better believing them than you.
