That’s a very insensitive mana nerf for Rehgar. His whole thing was casting Lightning Shield on cooldown at literally any available target, minions included. It wasn’t always a net-gain but this will be felt. Surely it can get out of hand when there are many bodies around, but if the goal is to completely destroy mana gains, at least buff hits against heroes in return.

    • Can once again hold his sword high and proud.

Best change.

Thanks, Dev, for your hard work, what a nice surprise to be greeted with, some balances changes too, not just bug fixes. Also, it’s wonderful to see one of my favorite splash screens make a return.

122 clicks on the patch notes, lots of lurkers here, come out of the shadows!

Wowzers, Rehgar can finally be oom.
I tried Yrel main tank. It’s annoying as heck for the enemy team. If they don’t draft Garrosh or Tychus, they will struggle. Sacred Ground CD is so freaking short, I can do whatever I want almost whenever. Plus, Aegis of Light makes my team bruiser like HP with the 40 armor for 5 sec.

I blocked their wave bot for the heck of it.
p.s. didn’t meant to cite you.

Experiencing balance changes again is very cool. HOTS is a pretty well balanced game but seeing a character overpowered for a patch can also be very fun. In my opition doing some bigger changes that You feel like make sense is acceptable and welcome. BUT BUT Im happy we are even getting patches again!

Please add LEORIC to regular ARAM. In fact, add all heroes to regular ARAM.

It’ll be fine! Better yet…it will be FUN.

I must admit, I felt very nostalgic for Hots prime years, being required to read actual balance changes in patch notes.

Man, with his new reclassification, you REALLY don’t take Twin Blades on Varian now.
Revert this change.

Speaking of not going oom, I saw that aram clip of yours with Yrel recently and you were hardly losing any mana while destroying five players. If we are treating mana as a meaningful resource let’s widen the spectrum. I could think of several mages who would be completely dry by the third ability rotation while you kept going for close to 90 seconds (longer had you not killed all of them). Sure, these heroes can pick the mana sustain talent but that just means their life span has been cut in half.

My message was that healers are already frustrating to play and whoever is left playing is flocking to ranged assassins so the correct way would have been to buff other healers. But hey, since we’re going down the path of least effort, why not just make one character worse, it will save printing costs for the patch notes.

Uther and Kharazim, mana what? They still feel much worse to play even in contrast against a nerfed Rehgar.

This is a great update! Thanks whoever the hell is working on this game still.

one QoL update I would really like to see is some kind of indicator that Malfurion’s Regrowth is on my character. It’s great that Malf can see who he’s healing but I’d really like to have a physical indicator to know if I’m being healed without having to stare at my health indicator and wonder if it’s one of my talents or a Regrowth.

Not a huge request but still it would be a nice QoL update. Not that anyone plays Malf that much anyway…::cough:: buff The Malf ::cough::
