I think the goal is to get ahead of the potential problem, rather than wait for it to realize. Draw attention to it now, before it releases and requires a hotfix.

How is barb suppose to incorporate more IAS anyways? Remove rends? Remove verdungo? Remove Fortitude? Remove Angelics? Seems barbarian has to remove damage, damage reduction, or attack rating, to gain more IASā¦
i guess barb have the option too use frenzy too boost the ias and after ww , the one hand table is 4 frame so np there i guess
where is really dump is for Two-Hand because
the lower Two-Hand basic attack are 6 frame mean ww will take a major nerf in dps from 4 frame too 6 frame big dps lost too something already weak
i guess same crap for the ww assassin Burst of Speed is great too boost the ias sadly Tiger Strike basic attack is 5 frame , so the ww assassin suppose too jump from 4 frame too 5 frame a other major nerf , if what i`m reading from blizzard is right
(The frames between each Whirlwind attack are equal to the attack frame of a basic attack for that character)
I made the same point in another thread. Treachery becomes pretty much mandatory with this change.
And if you play self found, now you will have to farm not only 3 piece Sigons, but also Twitchthroe before you move on to nightmare.
What a narrow minded look in terms of being in possession of all the end game items and a max level character. Thereās a gazzillion more situations other than that - lower level on a playthrough, different gear variations, budget, dual-wield, 1h+shield, 2h, sets, optimized for survivability, utility, damage, against ubers, etc.
The claim in the patch notes is really odd.
A plain Ogre Maul does an attack per 21 frame with basic attack, and per 12 frames with whirlwindā¦ so how exactly will it speed up?
reading and understand what blizzard say using a +20 weapon you will need 434 ias to hit 6 frame cap ,compare before you need 80ias too hit 4 frame ,this is all no sense , he will have to wait the patch release , dont expect blizzard to come here and clarify this mess , very poor communication with the community
Ok, doommingers, the result is the opposite. WW is back baby!!!
So my Grief and Azurewrath will do decent then! Sweet
im making test now with white weapon , and 2 handed weapon are so slow , i hit around 4 time with a berserker axe the target and about 2 time with a 2 handed i will need to read the patch , and the new table . this feel pretty bad for 2 handed ,i just hope im wrong but dont feel good at all for 2 handed
where are the note of this patch ???
