Mythic+ tier list

Across the last 4 periods (W8-W11), the meta is highly concentrated in the tank and healer roles: Guardian Druid and Holy Paladin are fully defining their slots, while Blood Death Knight and Restoration Shaman form the clear second tier behind them. DPS is also top-heavy rather than healthy or open: the top 3 DPS specs hold 43.77% of DPS slots and the top 5 hold 64.54%, with Arms Warrior, Elemental Shaman, Mage Arcane, and Subtlety Rogue carrying most of the recent-window impact. Dungeon variety is also skewed, because only Guardian Druid, Holy Paladin, and Subtlety Rogue are showing full 8/8 dungeon-leading spread in the latest period.

1. S
   

   Guardian Druid and Holy Paladin are hard-defining their roles in the last 4 periods, each holding 46.6% and 49.8% of their role’s slots in the latest window and leading all 8 dungeons. Arms Warrior (15.4%) and Elemental Shaman (14.7%) are the next-strongest DPS by recent window share, and Subtlety Rogue is an outlier spike that jumps to 23.3% latest with 8/8 dungeon leads, so it also clears S on current dominance despite its volatile early-window start.

2. A
   

   Blood Death Knight remains clearly top-end for tanks at 31.0% latest with stable presence across all four periods, just below the meta-defining tier. Protection Paladin (12.0%) and Holy Priest (12.3%) are both strong, persistent options in their roles, but they sit beneath the dominant leaders and do not show dungeon-wide control.

3. B
   

   Vengeance Demon Hunter (4.1%), Protection Warrior (3.8%), and Brewmaster Monk (2.5%) are present every week but sit in the lower tank band. Retribution Paladin (6.2%), Demonology Warlock (4.6%), Beast Mastery Hunter (4.5%), and Devourer Demon Hunter (3.4%) are viable DPS picks with recurring presence, but none approach the pushed-key core or show dungeon dominance.

4. C
   

   Assassination Rogue has already collapsed to 0.4% latest after an earlier spike, so it no longer looks durable despite past visibility. Mistweaver, Restoration Druid, Discipline Priest, Preservation Evoker, Enhancement Shaman, Frost Death Knight, Unholy Death Knight, Feral Druid, Balance Druid, and Shadow Priest all live in the niche band, with recent shares too small to justify higher placement.

5. D
   

   These specs are effectively absent in the recent window, all sitting below the 1% DPS floor: Fury Warrior, Outlaw Rogue, Survival Hunter, Augmentation Evoker, Marksmanship Hunter, Affliction Warlock, Devastation Evoker, Destruction Warlock, Frost Mage, and Fire Mage. Their last-4-period footprint is too small to matter for Mythic+ push meta.
