Item Tuning Incoming - October 1

Community General Discussion
1

Now that we have more performance data from Season 1 to work from, during scheduled weekly maintenance on October 1, we’ll adjust some underperforming raid and dungeon items.

Items

  • Aberrant Spellforge damage and Haste effects increased by 5%.
  • Ovi’nax’s Mercurial Egg effects increased by 5%.
  • Throngus’s Finger dodge increased by 25%.
  • Overclocked Gear-a-Rang Launcher damage increased by 5%.
  • Twin Fang Instruments damage increased by 10%.
  • High Speaker’s Accretion intellect effect increased by 25%.

We feel that these changes bring us very close to our overall goal for how items will perform throughout the remainder of this season.

Kinda too late for that lol…

“Hey this trinket you’ve farmed a quadrillion arakara for is now useless!” Would not be met with praise.

Whats the goal for tank trinkets? For them to be absolutely useless? Despite posting about how good DF tank trinket design became towards the end, TWW tank trinkets have remained lackluster and straight up garbage. I hope you guys can think up some better stuff for s2 raid. Or maybe just copy paste dreadplates, ursocs, and all-totem, since it seems good tank trinkets come about once every 3 expansions or so.

Yes that’s the goal. They’re doing well in that regard.

I fail to see where Kaivax said Sacbrood is useless. If anything, this is great because it gives more options for trinkets depending on the situation.

Any chance for a pass on Delve trinkets? Some are downright awful (Everburning Lantern, Imperfect Ascendancy Serum), some are bugged or not working appropriately (also Everburning Lantern).

Fair enough. My apologies. This forum structure is not entirely clear.

What’s the goal for Delve trinkets? They seem pretty low on the tier totem pole even if you snag one for 616 item level over a 616 Raid or M+ trinket.

Majority of Delve trinkets are -B/C/D Tier while not in line with S/A/B+ Tier Raid or M+ trinkets, which makes sense, currently. Would be nice to have some strong Delve trinkets for the alternative content other than Raid/M+ where they need to be the “BiS” for that content and pretty much overall Best in Slot for that class/spec.

Players using BiS Raid and M+ S/A/B+ trinkets in Delves, why not have S/A/B+ Delve Tier trinkets to be useful in Raid and M+? Seems fair to me instead of keep them low balled as not as useful to be included in higher end game content.

I enjoy solo/grouping Delves over M+ by far this season. A deeper “delve” into looking at the potential of Delve trinkets would be ideal for the remainder of Season 1 and perhaps new Delve trinkets for Season 2. :+1: :grin:

Can you fix Heart of Azeroth in past expansion dungeons/raids? There a reason why it got disabled inside old instances?

You guys are just lost. Revert the nerfs to tanks and heals using DPS trinkets.

Meanwhile I’m running Reinforced Wax Plating and it doesn’t seem like there’s even any analysis available on whether it’s any good as a tank trinket.

I ran that a few keys, but it’s just outright better to run dps trinkets.
