love when they gut hpal mana and damage when it already has the worst mana and pvp damage out of any healer in the entire game

  • Light of the Martyr now costs 9% of base mana (was 7%).

  • Barrier of Faith now costs 16% of base mana (was 9.5%).

  • Tyr’s Deliverance now costs 12% of base mana (was 0%).

  • Aura of Reckoning now increases the damage of Judgment by 100% (was 200%).

Does this mean a 60% nerf for Corruption for Aff or just a 15%? As far as I know Corruption was generally #1 or #2 in their damage profile.

4

yeh not sure why they did this, i did think aura of reckoning was obnoxious doing 30k dmg but didnt need a 50% nerf. It cost so much mana to melee wings aura of reck, wasn’t rly viable tbh

It looks like 60% nerf. And yeah it was usually their #1 dmg

Weren’t the pvp reverts done in a hotfix quite awhile ago? They’ve def been on beta for awhile now.

I do remember a while ago some of the pvp modifiers were changed, I don’t know if it was these specific ones though.

Kinda weird that DH is mysteriously AWOL from any tuning.

Also weird they didn’t nerf Guardian Moonfire PvP dam by like 90%

Hilarious. All they did was undo a ton of buffs they received in prior expacs

This isnt real tuning yet, all they did was undo more modifiers.

12

u dont need to pop melee wings it will proc it before the judgement even lands meaning it only costs the mana of judgement.

14

weird i thought i noticed it did cost the big mana on reck proc. I could be wrong i don’t play holy that much

15

isn’t this stuff already live?

16

I legitimately do not understand the hpalla nerfs

I don’t think they were over performing in pve either.
Can someone explain the reasoning of that to me

17

Those nerfs are old, but I don’t think they were pushed into effect yet.

19

This looks more like a pre emptive nerf, removing bonuses they already had and don’t need anymore, Rather than a proper balance patch.
