Abilities scale with weapon damage

[Foxhoundd-azjolnerub]

I remember abilities used to say “does X damage based on weapon damage”. Now it just says what seems to be a random number. Is it still here? Or did it get removed?

[Deepfreezegu-shazzrah]

its still there, just reworded (based on attack power, spell damage etc)

You are only scaling based on spell/attack power, since Cata or MoP I think, and these are based on your Str/Agi/Int primary stat.

It’s basically the same thing in the end. What they did before was convert the AP to additional weapon damage now they do the opposite.

all spells scale with spellpower and AP

i think weapon contribution to AP is like (str+6xweapondps), its just more homogenises but weapon upgrades will still grant a bigger boost to ALL your spells, not just “melee strikes”
