It’s finally time to check out the new patch logs and see where the tuning pass got us! We’re taking a wider look today, covering the tanks and healers as well, so there’s a lot to get to.
Warcraft Logs Points
The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing. This means that 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. It is a much, much smaller factor, granting only a few points for significantly faster completions compared to just any in-time finish. We’re also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity. This means that the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
95th percentile DPS
The top 3 remain unmovable despite the changes, at least for now. Enhancement catches up with Frost DK, and Augmentation pulls even further ahead. The first change comes in spot 4, as Balance finally takes down Assassination. Unholy moves one up as well, pushing past Frost Mage, while Fire drops quite a few spots down to 12th. Destruction takes down Retri in 10th, as Outlaw drops down to 13th. It seems the buff did Marksmanship no favors in Mythic+, or perhaps not enough players even play it anymore, as it’s still down in the bottom 3 along with Beast Mastery and Devastation.
All Percentiles
Augmentation pulls even further ahead here, and so does Frost DK. Elemental gains a spot as Assassination drops three into 7th. Retribution climbs the ladder a little as well, gaining a spot in 9th, while Fire just barely manages to stave off Frost for the final top 10 spot.
Specific Keys
We’re also going to peek at some specific key levels, starting with +10s and ramping up. The top percentiles are all pretty perfectly lined up for the lower keys, as the players playing those specs do not fail.
+ 10s
+ 13s
+ 15s
Tanks
Brewmaster skyrockets up into 3rd, pushing past the DK, DH, and Druid, as it moves out of last place! Vengeance also moves up a little, leaving Guardian down in the dumps.
Healers
Quite literally nothing changed for the healers with the patch (and in quite a few weeks as well), as they are very settled in with Discipline as their leader!
For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs and check out u.gg for more stats. If you’re interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides, as well as our Mythic+ guides.
