Comment by Gogeta1990Well, I'm assuming this is definitely not a final list.

Some provide very minor utility (paladins), while other can substantially increase raid dps (balance druid)Comment by GeigeOf course some talents are more useful than others but I like the variety that this essence provides. Spices things up a littleComment by ZanbaurNecrotic Strike doesn't seem useful at all in pve for Unholy.Comment by SeganoHavoc literally got THE MOST USELESS trait. The good news is that I won't even have to consider trying to get this Essence now on my DH.

Good news that my Monk is DEFINITELY getting this! Wow! Crane for MW and Reverse Harm for WW is FANTASTIC!Comment by JaasceBalance and Feral druid buffbots incComment by SaruyaJesus, that Hunter one is absolute gash. Is that the best they could do?Comment by SormorneWell so much for this actually being good. As an unholy DK i was hoping to bring AmZ into raids so my class could actually bring something to raids for once. All I can see necrotic strike being useful in a raid is on Uu'nat for absorbing the puddle heals and not needing to worry about using the void stone being it absorbs 7% of the targets HP and puddles only heal for 1%.Comment by VexentWow, they really gave us some big options as Rogues! I wonder what smoke bomb im going to take /sComment by TOMRUSIt's really bad idea to force PvE players into PvP and it will backfire.Comment by zTrikkiJesus, that Hunter one is absolute gash. Is that the best they could do?Comment by TalihawkThe hunter one is rather disappointing but meh maybe it'll be useful. Meh.Comment by TzodkPlease delete this essence while there is still a chance (or better yet make it only usable in pvp). This essence will not end well.Comment by LlaroldHot Trub for Brewmasters is... incredible.Comment by AzraelUltimaNecrotic Strike doesn't seem useful at all in pve for Unholy.Comment by CarneAsadaHavoc DH isnt too bad... would be great for M+ Fortified weeks Would also allow for more on demand burst for Raids. I cant really complain to be honest. Its the one PVP talent I actually use :PComment by LemonopyMost classes won’t care for this essence while some will probably be forced to pvp because of how good they are. Shamans get two dps increases, spriest with the insta void eruption, but like a rogue gets smoke bomb or unholy gets necrotic strike...don’t get the thinkingComment by BawkasaurFinally a way to give Ferals some love in terms of being needed/wanted.Comment by CarneAsadaIt's really bad idea to force PvE players into PvP and it will backfire.Comment by JaasceHavoc DH isnt too bad... would be great for M+ Fortified weeks Would also allow for more on demand burst for Raids. I cant really complain to be honest. Its the one PVP talent I actually use :PComment by TheRedRogueNot sure if it will be worth it from a DPS standpoint (if the major/minor powers aren't competitive with other essences), but getting smoke bomb back as a rogue is a nice utility improvement and could be very potent in Mythic+ or Raiding.
