Tricks of the trade

I was looking at some PTR changes and I am a little confused

Increases you and the target’s damage by 10% 15%, and redirects all threat you cause to the targeted party or raid member, beginning with your next damaging attack within the next 30 sec and lasting 6 sec.

Does tricks increase my damage? Has it always? I always thought it was just a threat redirection

Outlaw pvp talent called Thick as Thieves. It’s being removed and becoming baseline in 9.1. AFAIK it will no longer boost your dmg, just your targets

Ah I see, ok thank you

It’s another PvP nerf to basically the worst PvP spec.
