Today, we have a special edition of our DPS rankings. We will be looking at the DPS balance during the first few days of Amirdrassil in Dragonflight Season 3. This data is For this analysis, we will use data provided by Warcraft Logs Raid statistics for Dragonflight Season 3.
Heroic Amirdrassil Statistics Page
Disclaimers and Source
The data for this article was taken from the Raid Statistics Page on Warcraft Logs for Mythic difficulty in the week of November 14th. We will be looking at data for the 95th percentile on Heroic difficulty, plus showing the overall results to paint a better picture.
Once again there's a bug with Augmentation Evokers causing Beast Mastery Hunters to appear higher than they should. Pet damage increases from Augmentation isn't being properly attributed to them, so BM hunters appear higher than they should, while Augmentation appears slightly lower.
The idea of this article is to give a perspective of the current state of class balance for Dragonflight Season 3, meaning this is an incomplete picture of balance.
We say perspective, as there are inherent biases in looking at the data this way.
- Specs considered underpowered are generally played less and tend to appear weaker than they are.
- This happens as many performance-oriented players 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.
- Tier acquisition will skew how balance looks for the first weeks of Season 3.
- We will be looking into Heroic data for a couple of weeks
