nerfing Essence font, why? It finally feels decent

They are reducing the number of bolts by making bolts fire every 1.2 seconds instead of 1 second

Adding expel harm to Thunder focus tea, making it convert 25% more health into damage and creating a 15% absorb shield

Removing Essence font from tea of plenty and putting in expel Harm

Giving us some sort of dodge effect (not sure which spec)

Also making you gain 5% more stamina while ancient teachings is active

Overall kinda bummed out about Essence font it actually feels great this patch so far

The other changes are interesting though.
Specifically with the expel harm buff and now the absorb shield (which thank you blizz for doing), we have some really interesting SooM healing and shielding potential with increased stamina from teachings too

If you’re wondering where this information is, mmo-champion datamined it!

Wait what?

What’s wrong with MMO champion?

Whoops - I initially wrote a comment asking where you found that information, and then I found it on mmo-champion. I edited my response out, but I just realized it looks like I said to ignore the information. Sorry about the miscommunication!

kind of weird that this kind of thing isn’t on the official development notes.
Have to question whether it’s a build artifact.

After messing around with it on the ptr and getting a 322k crit on expel harm I’d like to say these changes are very based and I love you.
