We’re back to Mythic+ with the first look at the new season! We have 2 weeks behind us and there’s been quite a few changes as you might expect with a class tuning pass, new seasonal affix and new dungeons, all of which combined brought an extremely familiar face back to the top!
Note: The logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning 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, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We’re also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
These past 2 weeks were:
Tyrannical, Inspiring, Quaking
Fortified, Sanguine, Grievous (and Shrouded)
All Keys
95th percentile
While both Destruction and Survival got some AoE nerfs, it seems the Hunter spec was much more mildly affected, as it takes over the top spot from the Warlock, which didn’t go too far, landing in 4th. The big news, however, is the rise of the ancient Mythic+ king, a spec that has dominated the format for an incredibly long time, and it’s now back, almost at No.1 – and it’s Fire! Outlaw climbs quit a bit into No.3 as well, proving that the tuning it got worked and then some, as it’s seen quite a huge bump in raids as well. With all this rising something has to fall, and it’s Windwlaker, taking a dive down to 5th, followed by a much bolstered Demonology. Shadow is the biggest winner of the patch so far, as it rises 9 spots into 7th, as Marksmanship only drops 1 spot. You could make a case for Balance being the big winner as well, as it slips into the final top 10 spot, a whopping 10 positions up from before the patch. The bottom 2 remain the same, as there’s no saving Assassination and Beast Mastery, but Retribution climbs a little out of the gutter as it rises 2 and leaves the bottom 3rd spot to Unholy.

All Percentiles
The generalist bracket is where it’s all happening for Fire, as the king has returned in style and taken over the place. Survival and Outlaw are close behind, as the Warlocks bunch up to complete the top 5, while the rest of the top 10 remains very similar to the top percentiles.

High Keys
Unfortunately there seems to be an issue with individual key graphs so we won’t be looking at any individual key bracket this time around.
Tanks
The tank situation remains almost exactly the same, as Paladins move 1 up and surpass Druids.

Healers
We see a change at the top for healers, however, as Holy Priest takes Resto Shaman down, flipping the stats from Season 3. Mistweavers drop to the bottom, as Discipline moves out of the gutter.
