Specs considered underpowered are generally played less and tend to appear weaker than they are.

This happens as many performance-oriented players will tend to play the strongest spec or class, increasing the gap between top and bottom specs even further.

Position of specs for the 95th percentile might be skewed by alternative strategies and parse funneling. For that, we're including the chart showing all percentiles' results to paint a better picture for all specs.

Statistics displayed on Warcraft Logs use the highest difficulty available for each boss, so these rankings are for boss encounters with Hardmodes activated.

MM was always weaker than SV in PvE and it only was able to compete with SV in ICC because every single piece of gear we use in ICC has ArmPen and MM has slighty higher auto dmg. No surprise for me to see MM so low as i played SV during ICC and outdpsed MM hunters back in the day.Comment by SwordoseKinda funny as a hunter player seeing MM so low, esp when everyone was saying “oh we swap MM after Ulduar cuz its better” at the start of WotLK.
