The Mythic+ dungeon meta in Patch 10.1.5, also known as the Dragonflight Season 2, has seen a lot of changes aimed at shaking up the existing strategies and compositions. Blizzard has been focusing on minor adjustments to create a more balanced environment rather than completely overhauling specific specs. In this updated tier list, we'll delve into the changes to tanks, melee specs, and range specs, as well as the state of healers in the current Mythic+ landscape.
↖ TANKS
Guardian Druids | Since the reworks in Patch 10.1.5, Guardian Druids have dominated the tanking scene, excelling in AOE and single target damage as well as survivability. Recent hotfixes have attempted to balance their power by reducing their AOE damage and survivability. While these changes slightly impact Guardian Druids' performance, they remain a top-tier tank option. |
Protection Warrior | Protection Warriors have been on the rise with AOE damage buffs and increased survivability in a defensive stance. The recent hotfixes have further enhanced their damage reduction and stamina, making them a more viable tanking choice. The change to a defensive stance, reducing the damage trade-off, makes Protection Warriors more appealing and boosts them from B to A tier. |
Vengeance Demon Hunter | Vengeance Demon Hunters continues to be a competitive alternative to Guardian Druids, holding the A+ spot in the tanking tier list. Protection Paladin remains strong, while Blood Death Knights and Brewmaster Monks provide viable tanking options, albeit slightly behind the top-tier tanks. |
Consolidated Tank Tier List:
- Guardian Druid
- Vengeance Demon Hunter
- Protection Warrior
- Protection Paladin
- Blood Death Knight
- Brewmaster Monk
↖ MELEE DPS
Retribution Paladin | Retribution Paladins received damage buffs to their AOE and single-target abilities, making them more competitive. While not a top-tier option due to the current meta, these improvements may lead to increased viability in Mythic+ runs. |
Fury Warrior | Fury Warriors have seen incremental improvements in AOE damage and Whirlwind ability. Despite these changes, they need help to break into the top tier due to the strength of the current meta specs. |
Unholy Death Knight | Unholy Death Knights received AOE damage boosts, but their lack of versatility and balance between AOE and single-target damage keeps them in the lower tier. |
Assassination Rogue | Recent damage increases have not significantly altered the status of Assassination Rogues. They remain a less favourable option for Mythic+ dungeons due to their lack of utility and balance. |
Consolidated Melee Tier List:
- Subtlety Rogue
- Enhancement Shaman
- Enhancement Shaman
- Retribution Paladin
- Fury Warrior
- Unholy Death Knight
- Assassination Rogue
↖ RANGED DPS
Augmentation Evoker | Despite numerous nerfs, Augmentation Evokers' unique utility and damage output continue to place them in the top tier. Their role as a support-based class makes them indispensable for high-level Mythic+ runs. |
Fire Mage | Fire Mages have faced consistent nerfs to their AOE and single-target abilities. Although their dominance in the meta is questioned, their synergy with the "God comp" keeps them in the top tier. |
Shadow Priest | Shadow Priests have received both damage increases and hotfixes to lessen their dependency on Mass Dispel. While these changes show promise, their mandatory role within the "God comp" keeps them at the top tier. |
Consolidated Ranged Tier List:
- Frost Mage
- Augmentation Evoker
- Fire Mage
- Shadow Priest
- Balance Druid
- Devastation Ocher
↖ HEALERS
Holy Paladin | Holy Paladins have undergone successive healing and survivability nerfs. While these changes have reduced their overall performance, their utility and synergy with the "God comp" continue to keep them in the top tier. |
Mistweaver Monk | Mistweaver Monks received buffs to healing and survivability, moving them from C to B tier. Their increased throughput and improved performance make them a more competitive choice. |
Consolidated Healer Tier List:
- Holy Paladin
- Preservation Ocher
- Restoration Shaman
- Disciplined Priest
- Mistweaver Monk
- Holy Priest
Conclusion:
Patch 10.1.5 has introduced a variety of changes to the Mythic+ meta, aiming to create a more balanced environment through consistent minor adjustments. While some specs have received buffs, the current dominance of certain compositions and specs has made it challenging for alternatives to shine. The god comp, consisting of Augmentation Evokers, Fire Mages, and Shadow Priests, continues to be highly represented due to their unique synergy and utility. While Blizzard's approach is moving towards a balanced ecosystem, more impactful is necessary to reshape the Mythic+ meta truly.
