Survival Hunter PTR Testing! | First Impressions | Patch 11.1 Hunter PTR Testing

[@andrewr6789]

You never used any of your hogstrider stacks to cleave raptor strike to 4 targets. Would be a good thing to track. Even with that though the pack leader damage feels underwhelming imo. Bear is just not nearly as powerful as it is for BM. I feel like it needs to be tuned separately for the specs or something. Guess we wait and see on tuning.

[@DERG0se]

After the three videos sv looks like the most fun specc. Bm looks unchanged and mm a bit slow. Thanks for ur first impression. Your videos always far the best for hunter player :)

[@Elementroar]

SV had just hit the right spot in terms of gameplay engagement IMO. But even if with Blizz claiming to run to reduce cognitive load, I'm not sure how that gels with them adding RNG with the summoned beasts asking us to respond to the procs (in this case I'm mainly thinking about Hogstrider for AOE). Like I'm not against it, but I'm confused on the messaging.

[@Syaska]

It always felt to me a shame on the opener we went bomb, bomb, butchery, ES and lost those two chances on the ES reset proc in order to not cap on bomb. So I'm glad without butchery we can ES > bomb > bomb.

[@Aurelon.]

please god dont let them make mongoose bite a thing again i hate that talent so damn much

[@MrMirack]

@@Aurelon. also, why add a mechanic to Mongoose? If they want us to talent into it, just make it stronger, or add a bleed or something...

[@MrMirack]

They just made survival fun. Why are they changing the main talents?

[@jaded-harper]

because blizz doesn't play their game and understand what fun actually is lmao, I'd be willing to bet not a singular dev even plays surv based on some of these changes

[@Dumbmelee]

🐐

[@Snake_holiday]

Seems interesting but I just really don't like the idea of basing an entire hero spec around uncontrollable RNG.

[@KhalidIbrahim-jl4uz]

react to the new surv changes please is it good or bad

[@yilmazraphael6896]

Bad

[@Garr0w]

This might be a stupid question but u pick AoE build for M+ and single target for Raid? How's your boss DPS on M+ while playing AoE build ?

[@Syaska]

Survival has relatively good priority damage compared to other classes because your AoE rotation is basically the same as your single target rotation, just with some different talents. So for example unlike rogue which is spending combo points on AoE bleeds and fan of knives it wouldn't usually press in a single target fight, Survival is pressing almost all the same buttons. In new patch it may turn out to change a little now we are only pressing Flanking OR Butchery, but on current patches survival priority is great, and we'll know more on next patch once the numbers settle down.

[@vyro7724]

packleader seems a bit underwhelming

[@n3phelem549]

Thematically the only SV hero.
