Mists of Pandaria Classic Hotfixes - Updated February 20

Oh hey but they took away my 10 Jogu the Ahole achivement points! Priorities were straight there for sure, he was a danger to everyone around him.

Hunters are still bottom 3 dps for all 3 specs as a pure dps class…

We are not asking to be top dps, but can we get at least 1 spec that is middle of the pack?

I am. The other 3 pure dps classes get multiple good specs including ones that perform at the very top (or way above it in the case of fire mage). Why shouldn’t hunters? All we can do is damage. We don’t have insane survivability or great utility. We should be on par with rogues, warlocks, and mages.

Mists of Pandaria Classic

  • Developers’ notes: With today’s weekly maintenance, we’re removing some temporary power increases that were made to specs at the beginning of MoP Classic. This is a necessary step before we move to the next MoP patch, “Escalation”. These changes only affect servers where the Throne of Thunder is active, and do not impact PvP.
  • Classes
    • Mage
      • Fire
        • Combustion now provides an additional 20% of Ignite damage on the target (was 50%).
    • Warlock
      • Affliction
        • Reverted the 10% increase to Malefic Grasp’s DoT.
        • Reverted the 15% increase to Malefic Grasp’s damage.
        • Reverted the 20% incrase to Drain Soul’s DoT.
        • Reverted the 20% increase to Drain Soul’s DoT.
      • Demonology
        • Reverted the 25% increase to Doom.
        • Reverted the 10% increase to Soul Fire.
    • Hunter
      • Ranged attack power from the Legendary Meta Gem Capacitive Primal Diamond increased by 100%.
      • Developers’ notes: This adjustment is a separate tuning effort that applies to all Hunter specs.

Well its a step in the right direction. Still only around a 3% buff for the class with all 3 specs at or very near the bottom but I guess anything helps at this point…

Could you Blizzard please, in a human language, explain what is “Reverted the 10% increase to Malefic Grasp’s DoT.”??? Is there any real human is able to understand how much % buffed or nerfed from this update note???

Practically 0. You don’t use that spell

Cracked me up.

genuinely I’ve never felt more confident in being able to do a job better than those that are currently doing it than after this year.

Mop classic would be a better game if I was designing it and I stand on that. Wouldn’t even be hard, all it takes is a glance and half decent argument for why these players matter just as much as the retail ones.

Pretty easy to defend it tbh. Pretty easy to set up a system where 10x p1 issues are addressed in retail at least 1/3rd of p1 issues are addressed in mop.

But ofc who cares. Just charge $79.99 for a boost and box for a game you won’t be developing on and continually spit in the face of players.

Blizzard: Where players are $ signs and feedback is discarded en masse in lieu of personal agenda and toxic staff x player relations.

Who asked for changes to a weapon from last expansion that I can’t find any logs where it’s used and hasn’t been mentioned in the forums this calendar year?

Who is triaging the dev team’s efforts and focus and why are they doing such a garbage job?

Maybe read up on bugs and issues players actually care about, maybe just try and do better.

God pls fix these raid and spec bugs. Who cares about that niche pvp bug abuse. You guys have a completely bugged boss on live servers RIGHT NOW

Have they even enabled rated PVP for any niche nonsense item use to matter?

I actually think this post is jacking with the forum dwellers. It’s just the right amount of ‘look here, there’s nothing to see’.

I hope that’s the case, because that would be funny and a sign that we’re at least a small blip on their radar.

You guys have players authoring bugs, listing repro steps, highlighting reproducibility and providing videos and you post this worthless drivel here?

HAHAHAHA

$80 box price btw
