Blizzard has announced targeted buffs for damage dealers and healers that will arrive with Phase 2 of the Legion Remix release next week, an attempt to respond to a dominant tank meta in high-level Mythic+. This matters because groups running multiple tanks have been crowding out traditional DPS- and healer-led comps in top-key runs.
In a blue post on the Blizzard forums, Blizzard wrote that the team is aware of the tank-heavy meta in high-level Mythic+ keystones and has “some targeted buffs for damage dealing and healer specializations coming with the release of Phase 2 on Tuesday.”
We are currently aware of the tank meta in high level Mythic+ keystones and have some targeted buffs for damage dealing and healer specializations coming with the release of Phase 2 on Tuesday.
The developer did not provide specific numbers or exact specs for the changes, only stating that adjustments will be implemented with next week’s reset and the Phase 2 rollout for Legion Remix. Expect this to be a focused tuning pass rather than a wholesale overhaul.
The message is corrective, not experimental. For players who have felt squeezed out of high keys, Blizzard plans to nudge damage and healing up so group composition becomes less of an automatic advantage for five-tank stacks. For those running the tank comps, the changes may shave some of that edge.
