Ele is getting a pretty large buff. What are you sniffing?
An ESO revamp? What does it include?
Mages have no other options. They have to DPS. Classes that have to DPS need to be good at DPS.
It will never be perfectly balanced and someone will always cry because you can ALWAYS make a list where one spec will necessarily be on the bottom.
In AoE ⌠the ST damage is a nerf ( unnecessary) when itâs a mid tier spec . But itâs ok they just boosted Fire Mage the top tier spec ⌠more slow clapping .

Based on logs the +30% to earth shock should be greater than the -10% to LvB in ST
Itâs a nerf ( slightly ) as ES does not overload while Lava Burst does .
The point is why was the nerf even put in (even if slightly) on a mid tier spec while top tier specs are left alone or given a buff ?

Shaman is not mid tier in ST, theyâre lower upper to upper in ST (minus sludge as shaman donât have the burst cds of other classes)
And I based it off log damage.
The Top Shaman on Sludge (closest to pure patchwerk) did
816,200 Damage with LvB, 10% reduction in this is a reduction of 81,620 or 734,580 damage
363,800 damage with ES, 30% increase in this an increase of 109,140 or 472,940 damage
Numbers arenât perfect but seems like a buff to in ST, if slight.
agreed , please just delete DHs and Monks theya re not a real class
Do you just, like, not have a monk dev this go-round? MW needs more help than a bit of mana cost reduction, and I think all monk specs would like to see some new Torghast powers since all we currently do is look for Corrosive Dosage.

If you are going to redesign Conquerorâs Banner the least you could have done is have it follow the caster instead of having it planted in the ground location. Let us just carry it on our backs so we donât lose it if we have to move!

That is exactly how it works in 9.0.5
âBrandish the Conquerorâs Banner, granting 400 Mastery and 30% increased movement speed to you and your 2 nearest allies and preventing movement speed from being reduced below 100%. The cooldown is now 2 minutes (was 3 minutes), duration is now 15 seconds (was 20 seconds), and the Rage generation is now 4 Rage per second for Arms and Protection, and 6 Rage per second for Fury.â

I donât get the Resto Shaman DPS nerf at all. I mean, itâs not a big deal and wonât really change anything, it just seems totally random and out of left field to nerf RShaman DPS of all things. If anything they should do a bit more DPS if they want healer DPS to matter (and Disc needs to do a lot more, itâs silly how little DPS Disc does) for anyone but HPal.

Nothing in the patch makes me want to come back and play. Good for those who it does though!
Thereâs this little thing thatâs frequently used when listing stuff, what is it called again⌠oooh yeah, alphabetical orderâŚ
You guys need to stop seeing bad in everything.
What would you do with that information?
Lol. Hey, to me: funny. To you? Less. 
Donât know if they got another person or notâŚbut during SL development they had 2 people working on class tuning etcâŚand one of them left soon after SL released

So at this point the class changes are still half assed and should have been in hotfixes much earlier. Why are you not nerfing fire mages or boomkins for m+? Why the hell are you not nerfing melee in general for pvp? Demo lock buffs? Survival hunter buffs or preferably entire rework? Bm buffs? Wtf are you doing blizzard

Are you a Blizzard plant or what bud? This change is horrible for the players. They are simply punishing players for making them do their job and update loot systems. WoW Devs have nothing but contempt for the people who play their game, so they are punishing them. You donât have to clear normal raid every week to do heroic, you donât go down 100 Rating in PVP every week to regain it. There is no reason you should have to re-prove the fact that you can handle doing a 14.

Champion Points complete overhaul and new servers for better stability. Skill points are getting reset to fix a bug, however; you get 2 weeks of free change to skill points, attribute points, and champion points to work out your new builds.
Then in June, next Expansion/DLC adds customizable NPC Followers you can take just about anywhere excluding PvP zones, battlegrounds, and solo arenas. You can gear them out, choose their skills, their playstyle roles, and even choose their rotations.
