It doesn’t seem like they’re capable of balancing this xpak without having something oneshot.

Seems to me like warriors will be too strong, given how strong they are already combined with the top spec nerfs. Uhdk too.

Remember lads.

Brave is he who queues on patch day (or balancing days? Eh).

The funny thing about rating is that if you lose it, you can gain it back almost instantly to right around your skill level.

Only by grace of your softcapped MMR :slight_smile: although it’s been slightly better recently

The funny thing about Starcraft 2 games, is that in order to win you actually have to destroy all of the enemy players buildings.

Double arms

Too much cope unfortunately

Haunt wouldn’t outsim soulrot if triple ua was a pve mechanic

It’s also dispellable

Aff needs dmg mitigation and/or to not be locked into mandatory pvp talents

I thought ua just does reduced dmg the 10 seconds rampant is active?

Having trouble linking it, but patch 10.1.5 launch buffed UA pvp damage by another flat 25%, separate from any other buffs. But Rampant Afflictions also now reduces UA damage by 25%. With these Haunt changes, it looks like they’re trying to promote single target play.

You’re right I misread it then, thanks

Time to dust off BM

the 50% nerf to BOAT kinda makes that talent dead in pvp. Most people only put one point in that. Now not sure it’s even worth doing that. Overall pretty big nerf to boomkin burst potential. The single target burst spec should still be very good but might have to dust off the dot spec and see if it’s back to being the best spec.

you guys are missing the point of the buff.

this change is really good for aff and I don’t even play the class.

RN aff has huge cleave pressure, but it can’t finish off kills with big single target pressure.

haunt fills in that gap, the main weakness of aff rn. SO it will DEFINITELY be played

Do you have any idea how much dmg it does or how much it’s getting buffed to?

It is not a finisher don’t make me laugh

Making my 3 dots go from ticking for 30k to 33 or 36k doesn’t mean huge single target pressure either
