Since Dragonflight started on April 28, 2022, the World of Warcraft team diligently tried to spruce up the talent trees and neutralize the apparent class disbalance. We have the most balanced expansions in the game history. And so, a lot of fans are curious about how Blizzard and that expansion become the different kinds of classes.
In an interview on March 14 with Wowhead Game director Ion Hazzikostas explained that the team is focusing on class balancing at the beginning of the season. When we get closer to the mid-to-late year, the devs pump their breaks on balance because the season is starting to stabilize.
According to Hazzikostas, the goal is to keep the balance to change and classes and specs that aren’t seeing much luck in PvE and PvP could pop up by the end of the season. In a nutshell Dragonflight will be an expansion, which follows up the new wave of awrons by Blizzard emancipating large outliers in the early weeks of the season and then spending the end of the season preparing for the next patch.
At the moment Hazzikostas and the WoW are happy with the direction the class balance is going in and plan to pick up their pace in the early weeks of upcoming Dragonflight seasons. Class tuning will continue in Patch 10.0.7, but that will happen substantially faster than it used to be when the season first started on Dec. 13-2022.
