Comment by ChristgirlS2 is going to have to be either reallly good (X for doubt) or really bad. S1 numbers have dropped off more than normal because of the tank nerfs that are healer nerfs in disguise, terrible class balance, awful M+ design with the affixes, even worse raid optimization, and the Siren Isle content that isn't even content somehow.

S2 is going to have to break records to get people back who quit after getting KSM/AOTC in S1.Comment by LapticanHere before somebody finds something else to complain aboutComment by ZephosHere before somebody finds something else to complain aboutComment by LapticanHere before somebody finds something else to complain aboutComment by RiddertExpected the 1 shot tankbuster with 0.5 sec cast time in ToP to be nerfed but ofc these changes are only in favor of DPS players. Meanwhile the only good and fun to play tank gets nerfed instead of worse tank specs getting buffed. Maybe just maybe the final season of the expansion will be good.Comment by KabookiejoeS2 is going to have to be either reallly good (X for doubt) or really bad.
