Comment by DudurehapBlizzard killed Kyrian dudu. Sad to not have that support spec as tank or even feral running. It's sad to see a Covenant die due to that but it is what it is.Comment by oospiritoomistweavers already do negative damage, do they really need a 50% nerf on sinister teachings? if theyre worried mistweavers will exist in pvp again then why not simply create a different balance table for PvP like other games doComment by Elvaras123DH Tank fun detectedComment by xstaindxSkinning of enemies is now shared, that's nice of them.Comment by SeganoMonk BDB was nerfed not buffedComment by TigerusSo vesper totem got buffed to be nerfed a few days later? :DComment by AutomaticFrogmistweavers already do negative damage, do they really need a 50% nerf on sinister teachings? if theyre worried mistweavers will exist in pvp again then why not simply create a different balance table for PvP like other games doComment by terrifying1376just tell us don't play monk class we gonna delete it next expansion that's allComment by Cerbrussbonedust didn't get buffed, it actually got nerf with the removing of crit, 2.5% on ST and 5% on AOEComment by Murzacmistweavers already do negative damage, do they really need a 50% nerf on sinister teachings? if theyre worried mistweavers will exist in pvp again then why not simply create a different balance table for PvP like other games doComment by billyquickWhat an absolutely MASSIVE nerf to Kyrian Druid. It was the most enjoyable way to play resto druid, really fulfilling the support role and feeling like you make an impact.Comment by belgaermistweavers already do negative damage, do they really need a 50% nerf on sinister teachings? if theyre worried mistweavers will exist in pvp again then why not simply create a different balance table for PvP like other games doComment by ApollomantisI guess its nice to see they buffed holy's healing a bit, that will make up for the DPS nerfs they did.Comment by sharniemistweavers already do negative damage, do they really need a 50% nerf on sinister teachings? if theyre worried mistweavers will exist in pvp again then why not simply create a different balance table for PvP like other games doComment by kpiaumMassive nerf to Pallid CommandComment by KYZ123Imagine making a support covenant with a nice legendary and all, and then just gutting the 'support' part of it. It's not as if there's three other freely accessible covenants if you want personal damage...

Every other support covenant/legendary is now leaps and bounds ahead of Kyrian Druid, including Kyrian Hunter which was originally a pure personal damage covenant.Comment by CodemagusNight fae paladin buffs whereComment by pikamasterWay to ruin Shadow Priest, only fun i had in Shadowland with that leggo and they nerf it by 36.5% of the whole damage
GG, back to NF boring life...Comment by 1296443mistweavers already do negative damage, do they really need a 50% nerf on sinister teachings? if theyre worried mistweavers will exist in pvp again then why not simply create a different balance table for PvP like other games doComment by RebemmaI do not raid but I am a Mw main. I know that Mw monks are getting many innervates for Yulon to work... however I play the game for M+ and we have never been this unwanted healer. I have the worst experience in SL. The amount of decline what I get is a joke sometimes I am in LFG for 3 hours and log out. I do try to push my own keys but you guys know it pugs leaves if someone in the team doesn't interupt. Every Mw monk knows this pain I believe even hpriests. Everyone want hpala and resto shammy even for a +15 what a joke. I hope at least they will buff mw damage. I am very close to quit this game. What a bad 1 year when a person wanna play the game and can't. Healers need a proper balance. Also community should be more open to off meta players with experience because trust me as an off meta to get 20+ done in time is a real pain
