Nerfs aplenty. Buffs; not so much

I hate how, whenevr a hybrid begins to do well in PvP in an other-than-healing role the nerf stick flies fast and hard.

But when non-healing specs of hybrids struggle in arenas for 4 stright seasons it's 'L2P, it's fine, working as intended, no, we won't help you, that would upset the warriors and rogues' etc.

We make both buffs and nerfs. Sometimes however classes or specs are nerfed because they affect 9 other classes. While we don't want anyone to be underpowered, buffing them sometimes isn't as high a priority since it only affects the one class or spec.

Make no mistake, we have a long list of items we still want to look at: buffs, nerfs and just different ways of doing things. Part of the Blizzard philosophy is that everything can always be improved. It just comes down to which changes we focus on first.
