In the March 25th PvP hotfix, it was mentioned that the damage of Balance Druids’ Moonfire and Sunfire would be increased by 33% in PvP combat.
In fact, the direct damage has indeed been increased by 33%, but the damage over time (DoT) has not been increased.
Sincerely hope that Blizzard could fix it. Thank you.

taking off all gear and hitting pvp training dummy in Dornagol:
tooltip DIRECT damage before and after hitting dummy:
moonfire = 6863 → 9127 (+33.0%)
sunfire = 6239 → 8298 (+33.0% )
tooltip DOT damage before and after hitting dummy:
moonfire = 87362 → 87362 (+0.0%)
sunfire = 64980 → 64980 (+0.0%)
spelldata confirms they only hotfixed the pvp coefficient on the direct amount.

how did you look that up?
Thank you. So is this already set in stone, or is there still hope for a hotfix on the DoT damage?
sometimes they fix things pretty quickly, and sometimes it stays bugged until next content patch

Sincerely hope that Wow devs could fix it. Day 2
Posting here on alts just to bump a topic is frowned upon. I would suggest not making daily “bugged for X days” posts.
Sorry, I’m a noob and i didnt know about that. I wont do that anymore.

I’m possibly more or less not definitely rejecting the idea that in no way with any amount of uncertainty that I undeniably do or do not know if this hasn’t already been fixed.
