Look forward to giving the spec a try tomorrow since the servers are going to be "annihilated" all day today
Easiest way to play? Use the one button rotation.And this is wrong, based on all the beta streamers"Luckily, there are no prerequisites to unlocking Devourer Demon Hunter in the Midnight pre-patch. Simply log in, and you're good to go!"You need to do the K'aresh quest chain.
The review is empty and fails to address the nuances of gameplay or the specialization's issues.Self-healing for this specialization is the worst among all comparable specs.Collapsing Star is interrupted by any action.Half of the talents in the left tree either don’t work at all or are completely unbalanced for the Devourer.There is no meaningful crowd control in PvP.There are no viable defensive abilities.Upcoming Apex talents are clearly designed only for Annihilator—Void-scarred players are actively discouraged from using Collapsing Star.The specialization’s design is a complete failure. Developers ignored thousands of beta tester reports and released an unfinished, unpolished product.
That's neat and all, but apparently we don't even pick up Collapsing Star in the talent tree during pre-patch so this whole post is kinda pointless.
oooh play pacman to get more fury
"Melee combo"... "25 yd"21 years, and still no real long range Hero DPS class...
Thought the spec would be boring but after going through rotation and talent guides and playing it on ptr I think it's totally fine, in line with other specs.
If the feedback thread on the forums is any indication, the correct way to play Devourer is going to be "Don't". At least not until some of the feedback is acted upon.Nevertheless I'm going to try it as soon as the servers are up and see if any improvements have been made. We'll see what people think of it when a lot of folks are playing it. Solo survivability was a big concern.
I tried the spec on the PTR and, to me, it felt a bit clunkyThe ramp-up for Meta seemed a bit off. I spent too much time waiting on CDs or just spamming Consume. As for casting CS, I couldn't really get into itI'm honestly struggling to see why the reviews hyped this spec up so much as a potential new main
DH can now feel warlock pain whenever we are forced to cancel chaos bolt midcast. Except I hear losing the collapsing star cast is even more punishing due to the lost soul fragments.Blizzard has known for years that major casts need to not be interrupted by movement, yet here we still are.
thats look so boring. Imagine boss pull with BL. Everyone blasting, and you sitting there, spaming Consume. After 45 sec you enter void meta and start casting Collapsing Star, boss do mechanics and you need to move and you must cancel the casting. After 1 min of combat, you do healer dmg. Terrible design.
so uh.......... where's the how to play part? this is just an ability overview
I was hi
I was hoping they would go over spell spots because the ones they give on the beta are rather unintuitive.
Both other specs of DH are/were fantastic through TWW, so I still have hope that Devourer gets fixed in future patches and/or with Midnight full release. The theme and idea and aesthetic are cool as hell, but if class mechanics aren't fluid and group play doesn't live up to other dps specs, then there isn't much point to play now. It doesn't seem very viable as a solo class either.I was excited to try this today, but I'll wait until it's fixed. Otherwise, frustration with class mechanics will sour me on it. Back to Havoc - Aldrachi Reaver. Hopefully that spec still works properly.
