Tanking Vengeance Passive in Mists of Pandaria

We’ve been working through numerous bugs with Vengeance and how it performed in patch 5.4.

We want to accomplish two things here: performance in Challenge Modes should be closer to how tanks perform in other circumstances, and we want to fix the bugs with minimal impact to players.

Therefore, we’re making the following changes:

Tank Specializations
* Vengeance no longer has diminishing returns on its Attack Power gain when fighting multiple enemies.
* Vengeance will now provide increased Attack Power even if the incoming attack missed.
* Vengeance attack power generation from spells with missiles is now reduced by your damage reduction for the first 3 seconds of your damage reduction effect.
* To compensate for this, Vengeance attack power generation is now 1.8% of unmitigated damage (was 1.5%).
* Fixed a bug causing issues when wiping on an encounter and then experiencing reduced Vengeance gains the next time that enemy is engaged.

Any chance you guys will apply Vengeance to Warlocks with the tank glyph?
