Player versus Player

• Demon Hunter
  • Developers’ notes: Both Devourer and Havoc Demon Hunters have been more difficult to land kills against than intended. We’re reducing the potency of shared mitigation effects that are contributing to their survival.
  • Demon Muzzle now reduces magic damage taken by 5% in PvP combat (was 15%).
  • Glimpse now reduces damage taken by 25% (was 35%) while airborne after using Vengeful Retreat.
• Monk
  • Mistweaver
    • Developers’ notes: We’re reducing Mistweavers’ ability to heal versus clumped targets in PvP since they’ve been outputting more healing than we’d like against pet classes.
    • Way of the Crane now transfers 100% of Spinning Crane Kick’s damage into healing in PvP Combat (was 340%).
• Priest
  • Holy
    • Developers’ notes: We’re increasing overall healing and providing an opportunity for Holy Priests to contribute offensively to secure kills with their team.
    • Holy Fire direct damage increased by 15%.
    • Holy Fire periodic damage increased by 27%.
    • All healing increased by 3%.
  • Discipline
    • Healing of all spells increased by 3% in PvP combat.
• Shaman
  • Restoration
    • Developers’ notes: Restoration Shaman healing performance has been slightly behind other healers in PvP, so we’re targeting an increase to their instant healing capabilities.
    • Riptide healing increased by 15% in PvP combat.

They reduced this because of Arena players complaining about Blood DK and BM Hunter. Demology lock not a thing. but this was never viable in Battleground Blitz. It would never keep up with the burst damage. Now, it won’t for a very long time in a patch where Blitz will shine. Hopefully the other changes will come thru
