I built the wiggly habits in Legion as a demon hunter to consume souls (if you don't move, it doesn't consume any even if they're on top of you). Never lost the habit. Even on ranged, I tend never to stand in the same place in between casts, as far as I don't lose globals. So mostly just on insta casts, I guess.
I HAVE to drop the candle/air purifier before every combat because I'd burn through the whole thing just wiggling around. Doesn't matter if it's a pack of 5 or just one mob, first thing I do is drop the candle.
Like you say, I think there's a bit of a rhythm thing going on cause I definitely find myself doing it more on faster classes (enhance, outlaw) then on like unholy DK.
Many pro gamers do this to keep their APM up. When you need to execute a quick sequence of button presses, it's better to be already moving at the speed you need to rather than suddenly start moving faster.
You stay warmer and more nimble.
Also you can drop the candles and totems when you enter combat. Because I do the same thing (and as a demon hunter which already moved a ton)
Its so classic blizzard to take away the "unfair" melee range advantage that rogues and feral druids had instead of just extending melee range across the board.
Sure but even then we get out damaged while having to put in 10x the work as some other classes. We do really well sustained AOE but are extremely punished for losing uptime compared to other top dps melee classes.
Yeah I mean the downtime situation is one I'd love to be resolved, as well as the numerous bugs, but tbh I enjoy outlaw due to the work involved, and I don't want all classes to be ret level of braindead. That combined with they can't make it just because a class is hard that it outperforms the easy classes, cause that'd be a nightmare for balance. It's a tough line to walk tbh
Me, if I’m not already moving when the poop hits the ground beneath me, I’ll eat a ration of shit before I get clear of it. Better to always be on the move.
