Reaping is their execute talent, rotten touch is the 50% clawing shadow buff after consuming sudden doom talent. Good change but still think unholy assault needs a mod.

Ahhh, yeah, that’s still big then.

Figured they forgot to apply that after changing it dmg, yeah.

63

sudden doom, sudden death, execute, same thing

64

They got pve buffs up too. Only a couple of them don’t apply in pvp.

Only the ones that matter don’t apply for pvp. They buffed an ability you don’t press, your generator that also does no damage, and some pet damage, which also does no damage.

      Thorim’s Invocation now increases Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning damage by 10% in PvP Combat (was 20%).

not really needed but ok i guess

Lava Lash damage is now increased by 25% in PvP combat (was 12%)

this already kinda slaps but ok

Elemental Blast damage is now reduced by 6% in PvP combat (was 15%).

same as above

Stormweaver now causes Chain Heal and Healing Surge to gain 150% of the benefits of Maelstrom Weapon based on the stacks consumed (was 100%)

kinda dislike this as needing to use a lb/ele blast before you can heal feels bad and just eats up globals while other people spam dam

  • Elemental
    Lava Burst damage from the the Amirdrassil 4-piece set bonus is now reduced by 40% in PvP combat (was 50%).

Supa and Venruki tested it out and they were saying the flame rift was a dps loss in pvp. So I guess blizzard heard that.

I am… confused. This is nuts.

Why did only marks get a defensive buff??? Why did SV get nothing???

Caster MWs getting nerfed due to FW is…interesting. Can you just separate these specs completely from each other? I don’t trust you to nerf FW only with a combined tree.

73

Probably cause of Mending Bandage but the problem is how useless mending bandage is most of the time for healing.

But it’s honestly hard to see what specs/classes are ‘strong enough’ with how absurdly broken so many specs/classes are right now. I haven’t seen a single MM hunter when playing, it’s all BM/Surv. I imagine with all the micro CC and melee killing people as soon as they touch them MM can’t stand and cast.

Yea, seen a ton of bm tonight. Off the rip they are doing about 40-50% more damage than I am. :frowning:

Not that rating matters much, but I’m tanking so hard right now. So many people with 4 set.

Oh yeah, it doesn’t feel very playable unless you’re one of the fotm specs, even under 2k mmr feels awful. I can see why queue times are getting worse. Just not making the types of changes they should be making.

76

Enhance is awful rn wdym? Like its a casino it can either randomly one shot or do absolutely nothing and they nerfed the most problematic part of that in the form of thorims.

Enhances literally just die - we need defensive buffs and slight dam. But I’d say defensive buffs over everything.

??? DHs were still absurd

77

BM nerfs when?
Demo nerfs when?
UH-DK nerfs when?

All pets classes getting buffs or not getting nerfs = buff time

78

mastery for shuffle. but haste for non-shuffle.

Annoying

79

While I agree with the ele buff being totally trolled, there is nothing wrong with nerfing rogues! The nerfs aren’t even enough!

Classes like rogue and mage shouldn’t do meaningful damage as long as they have such a overloaded cc based toolkit!

80

The tier set change doesn’t buff ele at all. It could rightfully be flamed for being a completely pointless change. They hit for like 14k with skyfury down. You’ll never notice nor care about the damage they do. Buffing it by 10% is literally nothing.

The main thing cooked about the ele tier is that it reduces the CD on prim wave by a ton and also gives way more chance to proc ascendance.
