Wow doesn’t have a support meta so anything that’s devoted to being supporty is either busted or useless (like shields being busted strong and our night fae ability being basically useless in raid without multiple night fae priests, respectively).
We can assume that there are people playing Disc as flavor of the month but we can also assume there are a lot that aren’t (myself included as I’ve been playing Disc since Wrath).ĭisc wouldn’t work as a support or “bard style” spec either because the game isn’t balanced around having those kinds of things like, say, Final Fantasy is. This is assuming that everyone playing Disc isn’t playing it for flavor of the month. They just enjoy the unique play style of damage reduction and being able to deal damage as well. A lot of people play and love Disc as a healer because healing is what they want to do. It would split the community similarly to how the introduction to void form split the Shadow community.
