Class Tuning Incoming – August 8

Yeah next in line is probably enhance or devastation evoker if aug and mage die. Both of those bring lust.

So from 3 to 4 seconds?

I’ve updated the OP to correct a typo.

  • Paladin
    • Holy
      • Blessing of Summer now causes attacks to deal 20% 25% additional damage as Holy (was 30%).

So only a 5% nerf to Summer.

That’s…not much considering how oppressive of a talent choice that is…

Extrapolate that into 1-70. It adds up for a class that was already a pain to level.

Has anyone done the math to see just how much this nerf to VT, Shadowy Apparition and SW:Death is going to affect low level players?

Will this nerf make those abilities useless until a certain character level and ilevel are attained?

A 15%-20% reduction at level 70 with i400+ gear is going to be much different than at level 20 with i27 gear.

You should cap the damage on Summer more than anything. H-pals are far ahead of every other healer in damage because of this ability.

Is this a joke? Surely they’re listening to literally anyone that does high keys and just reverting the nerfs right? Not just being 1% more lenient?

They won’t do that. Disc shields were allowing raids to completely negate mechanics. That’s why it was changed to begin with.

Guys, y’all really need to rework the Hunter class tree and the marks specific talent tree. It’s been needed as much or more as any of the other reworks and the class as a whole is just not something people are happy with. You’ve got it tuned so high in pvp just to average out against the things it hard counters and is hard countered by. Do the things that have been recommended by feedback so that it doesn’t have to be so polarizing.

Maybe that 5% healing debuff was a typo too. Or we just implement things without test. Not sure how you nerf the skills then blanket nerf again another week without any testing. Anyway as this forum suggests, job well done.

Weird considering they been getting buffed quite a bit the last few passes, maybe it’s a you problem

BM hunters still getting ignored despite needing help the most…

still waiting a reply as to why…
its not hard hey kav.

I understand why they did that, However not everyone raids.
If it was really such an issue they should have fixed it instead of removing it.

Oh what’s that!?? You only removes a few scales from my augment wings?

Lol. dances faster and resumes being best of class of blizzards chosen favorite of the gods

amen. I am super curious to know what the internal feelings were in the team about the 10.1.5 paladin.

Did they think wait this feels way too strong compared to other healers? Do they even do those kinds of comparisons?

Holy Paladin compared to any other healer is a total curbstomp. You should really figure this out before the patch goes live. This way you are not the bad guy taking our toys away.

CDS: Aura Mastery, Hand of Divinity, Daybreak, Divine Toll, Wings, Bubble, Sac, BoP, Freedom, Summer, Tyrs, Battle Rez

Instant Holy Shock, Instant AoE Spenders. No mana issues. Best damage for healers. ST Stun. AoE Daze. Dev/Ret Aura

A lot of those are on short CDs too. 1 Min CD. Tyrs is a 1.5min CD. Only aura mastery is a 3min cd

Did no one say, wait now resto shaman/mw/evoker/ {insert healer here} is a joke? Even disc, the next best, only has a 25% DR cooldown, and rapture for shielding. Not even a throughput cooldown.

Is this with or without addons?

Put a cap on Summer damage please. :pray:

This spell does such a random variable amount of damage based on the so many factors out of the players control.

When in a single set of patch notes you aim to put a lid on HPal damage by nerfing Consecration and Summer, why would you choose to reverse some of the Summer damage nerfs rather than reverse the nerfs to spells that you can actually understand dps values of like consecration?

What was the goal of this reversal? What damage did you have in mind reversing 5% of Summer because it’s a completely random amount of damage depending on the spec you press it on and how well they press their buttons. It’s actually impossible you had in mind any actual amount. Like seriously. If your goal was to reverse x% of the Hpal damage nerfs, this doesn’t achieve that.

This reverses 0%, x%, y%, z% or (a*b+c)% depending on whether you have a BM hunter, fire mage, a fire mage with aug, or a fire mage with aug + PI and that could not have been your goal.
