Hotfixes -- Updated March 12

I agree Sub needed a nerf… But this seems extreme honestly and im not a rogue player… I would like to see prot pally nerfs for pvp and hybrid spec healing reduced. Pallys, shamans and druids are healing for wayyyy to much in pvp atm.

Im ok with crazy burst and quick games. I think that makes arena alot more fun than BFA where every game had to go to dampening just to get a kill.

Well, it’s enough that I’ll take another look at the times. Maybe it’s a matter of perception. Or maybe it just feels like 20-30 minutes and it’s longer? Or maybe I’m a maniac and fly through it fast somehow.

I will say one thing… and that’s at least I’m not dying in there. I might be slow but those are my times. I couldn’t imagine it being worse with deaths… I probably would stop playing WoW if that were the case.

Few of my runs, I’ve gotten to the end and gotten wrecked by the boss. More often than not, 1/3 of my time spent on difficult tiers is the Layer 6 boss. Its like Layers 1-5 you can just waltz through. Take all the speed buff anima powers, book it to the portal boss, kill him and duck out.

I’m sure that if I gathered up more powerful anima powers that actually buffed my damage or survivability, the end bosses wouldn’t be so difficult but where’s the fun in that?

Sad that it takes them this long for maintenance and for class changes I love that mages only thing is an arcane legendary nerf Mage

  • [ With regional restarts ] Arcane Harmony (Legendary Effect) now gains up to 10 stacks in PvP (was 15) and not a single other improvement for the specs of the mages class, specifically Frost/ Arcane BIG OLD THANKS FOR NOTHING AGAIN only 5 expansions of just nerfs to both specs mainly frost.

So, if you were unlucky last week (like I was) and didn’t get any gear, the content is even more difficult to do. :woman_facepalming:t2:

Horrible changes to Torghast.

If you’re going to heavily nerf cool abilities (Shattering Throw, Slam), it is very uncool to also heavily buff the HP of bosses and mobs.

Pick one; nerf the abilities or make the mobs harder to kill.

Also; making shattering throw not work on bosses was just mean spirited.

So maybe 3% dps?

How about a blue post about Torghast. Maybe an revert it back to the way it was before.

Rouge is fine. If you want changes first give up 20% of your dps and we will talk.

How carried does your spec need to be ?? They’re still broken lol just
Shows how many garbage players jumped on the FOTM sub rogue band wagon.

Frost mages are dying. We’re dying over here. Can you please please lend a hand before no one will take a frost mage to anything?

Consider how that feels as a healer playing Torghast solo. Please revert this change.
