Wow, are these changes only buffs? Nobody could bring themselves to swing the nerf bat this close to Christmas.

5% healing buff for Rdruids in PVP…

:thinking:

:thinking:

IDK if this helps anything with the arena situation of Dampening affecting Rdruids more deeply than other healers. Probably much better in BGs, but still… the spec needs more foundational changes to be actually good.

It seems obvious that Blizzard thinks too many people are playing Brewmaster these days.

I think class tuning should only be implemented at the beginning of a season and none after that.

Will classes be unbalanced for the season? Yes but at least everyone is fully aware of the balancing and can make decisions on which classes to play based on current tuning.

When you implement “balancing” mid-patch, all it does is invalidate a person’s decision to play a particular class and it disrespects the time this player put into gearing that class.

Take prot paladins for example - everyone who rolled a guardian druid or prot warrior spent the first 2 months of the season gearing those characters, only to be forced to reroll when prot paladins were buffed to the heavens.

One of the more egregious examples of this is the introduction of Aug voker into the middle of DF season 2 - followed by the even more egregious example of Aug voker nerfs a few weeks after that.

Why was this problematic?

  1. People who didn’t play classes that synergize well with Aug voker had no chance of pushing the highest mythic plus keys after Aug voker was released.
  2. When Aug voker was nerfed, anyone who was in the process of rerolling didn’t even get a chance to try to push the highest mythic plus keys (which ultimately resulted in blizzard nerfing keys entirely).

Just please stop introducing any sort of “balancing” changes mid-season.

Work harder to make classes balanced at the start of the season and whatever isn’t balanced should just be played as is. Balancing changes mid-season disrespects the players’ time to the extreme.

I’m happy to see some buffs coming to UHDK, but uh… weird choice on abilities to buff (except Death Coil, which makes perfect sense).

Seems good.
I guess shaman nerfs will go to next season.
Would be nice throw a bone to brewmaster, maybe an annoucement that theyll get some stuff done later or next season would be great or that at least the team knows.

Curious buffs honestly. They seem larger than they really are (in the realm of 3% in st).

Oblivion not scaling with mastery like malefic touch (which is also not even flagged in game for mastery scaling) is a strange oversight. I think if it was added to mastery scaling at the very least you’d have a stronger case for oblivion disrupting our rotation as much as it does in single target.

I’m not sure siphon life will be taken outside of m+ where you are less free to spend shards off cadence as hellcaller and soul harvester.

Not buffing UA damage in tandem with xavius’ gambit is also counterintuitive, since you’re trying to push us into playing oblivion in single target (which won’t happen) and UA is still doing less damage than agony even as soul harvester.

Typical aura buff is not really “attention.”
