Specs considered underpowered are generally played less and tend to appear weaker than they are.

This happens as many performance-oriented players will tend to play the strongest spec or class, increasing even further the gap between top and bottom specs.

Position of specs for the 95th percentile might be skewed by alternative strategies and parse funneling. For that, we're including the chart showing the result for all percentiles to paint a better picture for all specs.

Statistics displayed on Warcraft Logs use the highest difficulty available for each boss, so these rankings are for boss encounters with Hardmodes activated.

In addition to it being massively weird to include one out of the 4+ made up tank spec names, if you actually look at gladiator rankings it's literally one person.... who gets outdamaged by the prot pala in their raids despite the pala parsing lower lol.Comment by FepersWhat's "Gladiator" warrior?Comment by DeprisseEven with this data out there, the number of people screaming UH DK is dead is astounding
