Mythic+ 11.2.5 Tier List – Updated Rankings for Tanks, DPS, and Healers

This Mythic+ 11.2.5 tier list ranks tanks, DPS, and healers for mid to high-level keys. It focuses on performance, survivability, utility, and consistency in the +15 to +18 range.

Balance changes can shift the meta, but the rankings below show which specializations currently bring the most reliable value to a Mythic+ group.

Mythic+ 11.2.5 Tier List Overview

This update reflects the balance changes and mid-patch state described in the source material. The list is aimed at players running mid to high-level Mythic+ keys, especially the +15 to +18 range. A specialization’s position is based on more than damage or healing numbers. Survivability, group utility, control, defensive tools, and consistency all affect its placement.

Tier rankings are useful for understanding the current meta, but they do not replace strong play. Dungeon knowledge, route planning, interrupts, defensive timing, and communication can matter more than a small difference between two close specializations.

Mythic+ Tank Tier List

Tanks are ranked by survivability, damage, control, utility, and how reliably they support a group through difficult pulls and tank mechanics.

S Tier Tanks

Protection Warrior and Protection Paladin

Protection Warrior and Protection Paladin sit at the top of the tank rankings. Protection Warrior combines strong durability with high damage and effective mob control, including area interrupts and stuns. Protection Paladin adds powerful external support, interrupts, and tools that can help protect vulnerable DPS players. Both specializations offer a strong mix of personal performance and group value.

A+ Tier Tanks

Brewmaster Monk

Brewmaster remains a reliable choice with strong survivability and high tank damage. It also brings useful monk utility and balanced control. Its overall performance is consistent across different dungeons, which makes it a dependable option for groups that want steady defensive and offensive value.

A Tier Tanks

Vengeance Demon Hunter

Vengeance Demon Hunter has declined slightly but remains effective at controlling groups of enemies. Its damage and defensive strength are weaker than those of the leading tanks, but its control tools and raid buff add important group value. It remains a strong choice when mob management and team synergy are priorities.

Guardian Druid

Guardian Druid sits near the bottom of A tier. Its single-target damage and control are limited, but it offers useful utility, a versatility buff, vortex, and off-healing. These tools can fit well with particular healer and DPS combinations.

B Tier Tanks

Blood Death Knight

Blood Death Knight remains a capable tank with useful Death Knight tools such as Anti-Magic Zone, Anti-Magic Shell, and grips. Its self-sustain-focused design can be less reliable during large pulls and heavy tank-buster damage. Its damage is also more limited than that of the higher-ranked tanks, placing it in B tier.

Mythic+ DPS Tier List

DPS rankings consider damage across area-of-effect, single-target, and cleave situations. Survivability, utility, mobility, target limits, and consistency also influence the final placement.

S Tier DPS

Frost Death Knight

Frost Death Knight is one of the strongest all-round DPS options in this update. It offers reliable area damage, single-target output, and cleave performance. Its survivability and Death Knight utility, including grips and Anti-Magic Shell, add further value to Mythic+ groups.

Beast Mastery Hunter

Beast Mastery Hunter ranks in S tier because of its strong overall damage, durability, and flexibility. It provides consistent performance without being tied to one narrow damage profile, making it a reliable choice across different key situations.

A+ Tier DPS

Havoc Demon Hunter

Havoc Demon Hunter remains highly competitive after moving down from S tier. It brings excellent area damage, funnel potential, mob control, and useful group utility. Its weaker single-target output compared with some leading ranged options keeps it below the top tier.

Arcane Mage

Arcane Mage dropped after the mid-patch changes but still offers strong funnel damage. Its lower versatility makes it less complete than the highest-ranked options, while its focused damage profile remains valuable in suitable encounters.

Destruction Warlock

Destruction Warlock performs well with uncapped area damage and flexible rotations. Its high potential in large enemy groups places it in A+ tier for Mythic+ play.

A Tier DPS

Unholy Death Knight

Unholy Death Knight remains powerful and shares Frost Death Knight’s useful survivability and utility. It offers less priority-target damage, but it continues to perform well in high keys.

Balance and Feral Druid

Balance Druid provides solid damage together with useful utility, including its beam and raid buff. Feral Druid can deliver excellent area and funnel damage, especially in physical damage compositions, although its value depends more on group setup.

Devastation Evoker

Devastation Evoker offers strong area damage, mobility, and unique defensive utility. These strengths keep it in the lower part of A tier despite some limits compared with the leading DPS options.

Marksmanship Hunter

Marksmanship Hunter remains a solid DPS choice and sits in the upper part of A tier. It is effective overall, although Beast Mastery Hunter provides a more complete combination of damage, durability, and flexibility.

Retribution Paladin

Retribution Paladin brings strong area damage and useful external defensive support. Its group utility adds value even though its raid buff is less impressive than some alternatives.

Shadow Priest

Shadow Priest performs well against single targets and remains a capable A-tier option. Its lower survivability compared with other caster choices limits its position in harder keys.

Subtlety Rogue

Subtlety Rogue offers strong priority damage and flexible performance. These qualities place it near the top of A tier, ahead of the other Rogue specializations in this ranking.

Elemental and Enhancement Shaman

Elemental Shaman ranks at the top of A tier because of its strong area damage and synergy with popular healer compositions. Enhancement Shaman remains in the lower part of A tier, with less impact across the full range of Mythic+ situations.

Demonology Warlock and Fury Warrior

Demonology Warlock is a balanced all-rounder that sits near the bottom of A tier. Fury Warrior improved after recent fixes and now performs well in both area and single-target situations, although it remains less dominant than Protection Warrior.

B Tier DPS

Fire Mage and Frost Mage

Fire Mage remains in B tier because its damage profile is more limited. Frost Mage offers flexibility but underperforms overall in this ranking due to design limitations.

Survival Hunter

Survival Hunter struggles to balance its area and single-target performance, which places it in B tier.

Windwalker Monk

Windwalker Monk has useful single-target damage and can perform well in specific area-damage situations. However, its overall output and target limits keep it near the bottom of B tier.

Assassination and Outlaw Rogue

Assassination Rogue is held back by reliability issues and weaker performance in this update. Outlaw Rogue also sits in B tier because of target-cap problems and lower single-target potential.

Affliction Warlock

Affliction Warlock struggles with add management in the current ranking. That limitation reduces its consistency in Mythic+ and places it in the lower part of B tier.

C Tier DPS

Augmentation Evoker

Augmentation Evoker remains in C tier because its damage-to-defense tradeoff is less effective for the current Mythic+ environment.

Arms Warrior

Arms Warrior falls into C tier because it struggles across its main damage profiles in this update.

Mythic+ Healer Tier List

Healer rankings are based on throughput, utility, defensive support, and consistency during Mythic+ keys. A healer’s value can also change with the group composition and the type of damage found in a dungeon.

S Tier Healers

Restoration Druid

Restoration Druid remains one of the strongest healers in this list. Its high healing output, versatility buff, and synergy with tanks and DPS give it strong value in difficult keys.

Restoration Shaman

Restoration Shaman combines high healing output with useful melee-oriented buffs and strong utility. Interrupts and totems make it especially valuable to coordinated groups, while its overall toolkit remains effective across many Mythic+ situations.

A Tier Healers

Preservation Evoker

Preservation Evoker is effective during burst healing situations. Its positioning requirements and cone-based healing can make some encounters less consistent, keeping it in A tier.

Mistweaver Monk

Mistweaver Monk moved up after changes improved its performance. It can provide competitive healing, although it remains more limited outside physical damage compositions.

Holy Paladin and Discipline Priest

Holy Paladin offers strong external support and reliable defensive tools. Discipline Priest provides valuable mitigation, although its raid-buff options are weaker. Both remain effective A-tier healers with different strengths.

C Tier Healers

Holy Priest

Holy Priest is placed in C tier in this update. Its healing and mitigation tools are less competitive than those of the higher-ranked healers, which makes difficult keys more demanding without additional balance changes.

How to Use This Mythic+ Tier List

Use the rankings as a guide when choosing a specialization, building a group, or comparing your current option with the wider meta. A high-tier specialization may offer an easier path to consistent results, but it still needs good execution and dungeon knowledge.

• Choose a tank for the mix of durability, damage, control, and group support.
• Compare DPS by the damage profile required, not only by the tier label.
• Consider healer utility and defensive tools alongside raw healing output.
• Remember that composition, player skill, and dungeon demands can change the value of a specialization.
• Check for future balance changes before treating the list as permanent.

Mythic+ 11.2.5 Tier List Conclusion

The 11.2.5 Mythic+ meta favors specializations that combine reliable performance with strong utility and survivability. Protection Warrior, Protection Paladin, Frost Death Knight, Beast Mastery Hunter, Restoration Druid, and Restoration Shaman stand out in the top tiers, while several A-tier options remain fully capable in the right group.

These rankings describe the current performance picture for mid to high-level keys. They should help with specialization choices and group planning, but successful Mythic+ runs still depend on mechanics, routes, cooldown usage, and teamwork.
