Blizzard is changing the secondary stat system and squishing it down to try to put heavy diminishing returns on them and in turn have made food buffs massively more powerful .
That means Panda’s will be 4 times stronger then everyone else with passive dps. This is not even including the soulbind you get for running Venthyr. Thats another 15% for food and flasks. Racials matter again.
Pandaren
epicurean): Your love of food allows you to receive 100% more of the stats from Well Fed effects.
Pandas already have an incredibly underrated racial in Quaking Palm; its the only “interrupt” racial remaining, it even works against “physical casts”.
I kind of hope that the min/max crowd all go Pandaren just so there are swarms of Pandaren all over the Shadowlands. Something about Pandas running around the realm of death is just too silly and I love it.
I changed my Alliance Priest to Gnome from Horde Panda (well technically to Nightborne first than to Gnome) though… but my new Panda DK hit 110 yesterday.
