happy warlock noises at that buff

Rexdiesel-frostmourne · December 17, 2020, 5:40am

no buff for arcane

Ermal-the-scryers · December 17, 2020, 5:49am

Underwhelming. Torghast borked, but at least Baine can be hit by snowballs.

Rhokandi-barthilas · December 17, 2020, 5:52am

Still no legacy raid buff for Legion. Cool.

Schaden-bloodhoof · December 17, 2020, 6:43am

Please fix Frost Mage. A flat % buff isn’t enough, but it’d be a start. Give us cleave back, make us useful when our cooldowns aren’t up unless you want us to be a bursty class then make our burst better. Fix inherent proc munching from both Winter’s Chill and Fingers of Frost. Boost the non-Glacial Fragments Legendaries. Do something, please. People parsing in 80s-90s on a pure DPS class should not be bottom of the pack in terms of their raid’s damage per second.

Unless your Patch notes include an apology then you’ve not done your job. I don’t log in anymore. FIX THE GAME. Games are the one area where the customer still is right. Specifically when speaking on the in game experience. Is there not one person you could have gotten to try these changes before implementing. So stupid.

I check these every day waiting for a note about Legion and legacy raid fixes. Still hasn’t popped up. What’s the deal? Can we at least get a post acknowledging it? I’m going to unsub if it isn’t fixed soon.

Frost mage will be a dead spec if you don’t do something soon. They are on life support.

Azmondia-lightbringer · December 17, 2020, 7:43pm

Meh, Torghast needs way more work. Hopefully more changes will be put in by the weekend so I can try a run thats not suicidal

Jàrèd-dalaran · December 17, 2020, 7:56pm

And what about the stealth nerf you did for M+? Messed up to do that to people https://www.wowhead.com/news=319983/mythic-10s-and-11s-end-of-dungeon-rewards-nerfed-to-item-level-203

Old raid content is normally not scaled until about the second or third month in with most xpacs. This is common as too much is broken with the new content most times to care about the old content until a couple months down the road. This expansion is proving no different.

Armalite-emerald-dream · December 17, 2020, 10:54pm

Well here’s the deal Baine, I only brought you out of the Maw cause … SNOWBALL FIGHT!

Physyx-stormreaver · December 17, 2020, 11:39pm

I stopped playing my frost mage this week. I am just going to level some characters and hopefully mage will see some love soon.

My aoe in dungeons is good just my single target needs work. I would say either increase damage to frost bolt or reduce cast time.

Icedragonsg-moon-guard · December 18, 2020, 2:31am

Those snow balls do more damage than a criting frost bolt. can you maybe fix that too.

Damelotodo-proudmoore · December 18, 2020, 11:32am

Thank you for fixing Torghast. But I still have terrible PTSD and trust issues and I’m afraid to go back there on any of my characters. Nothing about the Maw is enjoyable, Blizz. Nothing.

Damelotodo-proudmoore · December 18, 2020, 11:33am

All mage specs need help. It’s impossible to solo any content without being nearly slaughtered.

Bugfound-warsong · December 19, 2020, 2:58am

So is Mythic Legion raids (Antorus etc) scaling fixed or what? I’m confused. I want to be able to solo it again like I was able to at level 120…

Snokes-warsong · December 19, 2020, 4:44am

buff frost mages

About the healer buffs made to enemy HP in Torghast, I’d like to make a comment. I have two healers, my main (Priest - Holy) and Monk.

The Priest employs a number of heal-harm abilities and overall can DPS better solo for this reason, while also tending to get a healthy number of generic DPS anima powers to help with the floor/end bosses. Her instant cast heals are pretty profound, one’s even off the GCD, and it barely interrupts the action. The Priest also gets really nice class specific heal-harm powers, two buffing her next Holy Fire/SWP with a 100% conversion rate. Oh, and that one power where I can use 8 Word spells to get a 40% primary buff. Per stack of said power. (I’ve had 3 once)

The Monk…is not so fortunate. I mean I’ll admit now that I’m still really bad with the monk, and her ilvl is lower, but any heal-harm built into the class is not enough to keep up with the incoming damage. The monk’s instant cast heals are few, and while her throughput is higher with an even ilvl, it disrupts the action to the point that those “you’re killing too slowly” stacks on important mobs more than counter any throughput advantage. Mistweavers also seem to get less generic DPS anima powers and the one heal-harm they get is a wimpy DoT with only a partial conversion and I’m guessing doesn’t stack or become additive.

Not all healers are made equal in Torghast, and it might need some serious addressing…hopefully giving the more troubled healers a leg up.

So that’s why world quest gear always sucked (moreso than normal anyway). I was wondering why world quest item levels suddenly were higher than my crappy gear after being not worth getting for so long late yesterday.
