I kinda feel the same way, Farm. I was really juiced to switch to my
warlock as a main for Wrath, but I've never been a fan of dot-timer
watching (aff), demo, other than meta, is boring, and I really dislike
being forced into fire for destro. I actually like shadowbolts! If
only incinerate had a better spell graphic. I wish they had found
some way to balance fire and shadow as destro, so the choice is mostly
cosmetic.
I am very curious to see how all of these changes will play out. I
frankly doubt Blizz will be able to balance all of the DPS specs to be
within 5-10% of each other without completely unbalancing what little
balance there is in PvP. How can the same devs that let mages rot as
dpsers in the whole of TBC keep a straight face when they say they'll
balance all the DPS specs to be relatively close to each other?
It feels like the door is swinging too widely the other way in Wrath -
in TBC blizz overestimated the value of "utility" and kept hybrid dps
specs down, as well as "survivable" pure dps class specs. But now I
think they're underestimating the value of utility. If frost mages
and ret paladins and druids (cat or moonkin) truly do have 95% of the
dps of a fire mage or rogue but with massively increased survivability
- why on earth would you *not* spec frost as a mage?
