Dragonflight Pre-Patch Mythic+ DPS, Tank and Healer Log Rankings: Week 2

Recommended Posts

Clipboard02.jpg
 

It's time to take a look at how things are shaking up in week 2 of the pre-patch, after the big tuning pass from last week. We find the old king rules still, as Fire has gotten a taste of the top once again and doesn't seem like it's letting go any time soon, but the rest of the rankings are significantly different.

Note: The logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.

This past week was:

Fortified Fortified, Sanguine Sanguine, Grievous Grievous (and Shrouded Shrouded)

All Keys

95th percentile

Well, while the rankings have changed significantly post-tuning, one thing hasn't changed at all, and that's the reign of Fire. The spec wasn't touched in the changes and generally speaking, once Fire gets a hold of the top spot, it won't let go for about half an expansion. Luckily it's only the pre-patch, so we'll (hopefully) see a new No.1 soon.

In the rest of the rankings we see Rogues rejoice... well, Outlaw only, as the spec climbs to 2nd while its fellow class mates are both at the literal bottom. In a very confusing turn of events, Windwalkers are doing better than the week before, despite getting a pretty hefty nerf in the tuning, but it seems the spec is nerf-proof! Balance gained 3 spots and moved just above Affliction, the current king of raids, as Beast Mastery sits in a Warlock sandwich, but at least its not down in the bottom like its two fellow Hunters.

All Percentiles

The generalist bracket has the same specs at the top, but jumbled around quite a bit, as Balance and Affliction complete the top 3 (since Fire isn't going anywhere until the expansion), pushing Outlaw into 4th. Beast Mastery is doing quite a bit better here, as Windwalkers aren't quite as high up, but also didn't move much after the nerf either. The very bottom here is also reserved for Rogues ad Hunters, with Frost DK joining them.

Tanks

Vengeance may have climbed to the top of the tank list, but it's Protection Warrior that's making the most waves, as it climbs 2 spots into 2nd, as Blood DK has to settle for 3rd.

Healers

The healers haven't had any changes since last week, which is pretty standard for them, as they may remain like this until the end of the pre-patch.

      We had the opportunity to attend a group interview where developers answered some interesting questions about The War Within.
      Production Director Michael Bybee and Senior Game Designer Sean McCann had a lot to say during the interview, thanks to many great questions from the many WoW community figures asking them!
      Delves:
      Delves will be cross-faction. There will be Warband-bound rewards from Delves. Levels and Gear: 11 difficulty tiers total, with tier 9 and above not offering any new loot, mainly for bragging rights. Tiers 1 and 2 immediately selectable, 3 at max level, 4-11 when season 1 starts. There might be higher tiers as well, some possibly with just a boos room. Included in the Great Vault; gear for Tiers 8-9 equivalent to Mythic+5. Most delves will have static maps, with the dynamic part being enemy spawns, treasures and similar. The rotation of these dynamic changes are currently on a daily basis, but that may change as it's still being decided. Unlimited entries, but restrictions on the number of rare and epic keys. No downscaling in higher tier Delves, they can be outgeared. Companions: Brann progresses up to level 50, advancements shared with your Warbound. Brann is the companion for Season 1, with different companions planned for future seasons.
      Warbands:
      No account-wide gold, but you will be able to deposit your gold to the Warband bank, where other members can take it out. Double click to log in Warband chars should be available, but not 100% sure yet. No plans to add more than 4 characters in Warband screen. Unclear if there will be additional poses and other options for the Warband screen, it's still being discussed. Events
      More Holiday event updates, as there is now a "Live Team" that only focuses on the ongoing events in the game, including adding new ones like Azeroth Archives. Each zone will have its own world event, and the Hallowfall one is particularly special (no details shred though). Itemization:
      Discussions about Legendaries are not ready to be disclosed. Aiming to broaden the sources for acquiring class sets in The War Within. Game Mechanics and Systems:
      Archaeology: Not included at the launch of The War Within. Dragonriding: Leaderboards considered for future updates but not confirmed. Professions:
      NPC work orders for professions, mostly for skilling up.
      Raids and Mythic+:
      Heroic week is coming back! Mythic difficulty will unlock a week after the raid releases once again. Dungeon rotations from season to season will remain, as well as adding old ones in to the rotation. Plans underway to enhance the soloability of Battle for Azeroth raids; details to be announced. Mythic system has been reset: Mythic +10 is now the starting point. Discussions ongoing for more affix combinations; no new affixes announced yet. Raid testing coming later on in the Beta. Engine and Feature Updates:
      Major updates include the Warbands system and improved ocean visuals at Isle of Dorn. Overhaul of the Group Manager to simplify group coordination. Follower Dungeons available from the start for leveling, allowing dungeons to be part of the zone story; potential expansion to include Follower Raids based on player feedback. Early Access and Launch:
      Set to start at the end of the week with a Tuesday game launch. New raid opening delayed to prevent early access advantages, ensuring no unfair benefits from the most expensive pre-order options. Customizations:
      No new glyphs for character customization at launch, with a commitment to add more customization options throughout the expansion. An idea for sharable links/codes for transmog setups was mentioned, and while they did not confirm it was being worked on, there was a seeming hint that it may be, even with the code showing where to get parts you're missing from the transmog set. Feedback and Development:
      Evaluating player feedback on Brann’s performance in Delves and overall class balance in the Alpha.

      Here are the bosses we'll face in the first War Within raid Nerub-ar Palace and the item level of loot!
      The raid features many Nerubian boss and has a Heart of Fear vibe.
      Ulgrax the Devourer
      Driven mad by endless hunger, Ulgrax is the ravenous protector of Queen Ansurek's court.

      The Bloodbound Horror
      In the dark pits below Nerub-ar Palace, the blood of the Old Gods congeals in foul, black pools. The Bloodbound Horror rises from this vile ooze - drawing everything in its path into The Unseeming

      Sikran, Captain of the Sureki (no model yet)
      Born into a noble family, Silkran established himself as an arrogant duelist within Queen Ansuerk's court. Never knowing the cut of an enemy's blade, Sikran dispatched his rivals one-by-one and was proclaimed Captain of the Sureki by the queen herself. This indomitable fighter now ensures that any who threaten the throne fall before its might.
      Rasha'nan
      Twisted by Queen Ansurek's experiments, Rasha'nan was transformed from a proud nerubian into a monstrous winged horror. Trapped within her new form, shattered memories of her former self drive Rasha'nan into an unquenchable rage.

      Eggtender Ovi'nax
      Deep within the bowels of the queen's palace, Eggtender Ovi'nax conducts abominable experiments with the black blood found in Azj-Kahet. This corpulent horror lumbers through the palace's cavernous depths, regurgitating inky sludge onto hatchlings to observe its gruesome effects.

      Nexus-Princess Ky'veza
      Nexus-Princess Ky'veza arrived at Nerub-ar Palace only recently, quickly establishing herself as a confidante of Queen Ansurek. However, rumors abound within the inner court that she may harbor a dark and deadly secret. If discovered, the princess is prepared to dispatch all witnesses without mercy...

      The Silken Court
      Scarab Lord Anub'arash and Skeinspinner Takazj are among Queen Ansurek's most trusted advisors. Yet, these two powerful nerubians harbor a hatred for each other even more powerful than their loyalty to the throne. While unleashing their considerable strength onto their enemies, each is also fighting to ensure their counterpart does not survive.

      Queen Ansurek
      After a revelation of traitors in her court, Queen Ansurek decides she must eradicate the palace's invaders herself. However, paranoia over whom she can trust gnaws at her psyche. With her allies dwindling Queen Ansurek may delve into dark powers to attain victory, even if that means her most loyal soldiers become her next meal...

      Item Level of Loot from Nerub-ar Palace Bosses
      Raid Finder Difficulty: Item Level 571-580 Normal Difficulty: Item Level 584-593 Heroic Difficulty: Item Level 597-606 Mythic Difficulty: Item Level 610-619 Very Rare Drops
      Raid Finder Difficulty: Item Level 580 Normal Difficulty: Item Level 593 Heroic Difficulty: Item Level 606 Mythic Difficulty: Item Level 619
