Was this change intended or just a sad excuse to nerf paladins to sell more 58 boosts ?
What’s the nerf?
^
Could you perhaps elaborate on what sort of nerf they did?
They lowered low level spell coefficient modifiers, so it isn’t capped at 20 for using low ranked spells. Certain items, like demonforged breastplate and skull flame shield use the exact same spells as players do. As a result those items are currently nerfed with the same effect. If this intended we will have to see.
Good. I for one welcome if they break the boosting meta. It’s cancerous. Same with GDKP but doubt they can break that unless they start seriously banning bots.

Sfs nerf alone wont break boosting meta.
Just saying.
I know it won’t. Just a hope that they find a way to do it without nerfing the classes.
Intended to sell boosts. I bought a shield the night right before the nerf was observed. Prices went from 1100 to 550 and going down fast now.
I guess they want mages to keep this monopole.
Bro, what the heck? That actually makes it very hard for prot paladins to farm gold. Tanks already have a hard time farming for gold, now Blizz takes away their tools.
What’s so damn hard for blizzard to just nerf to the ground the experience in dungeons gained by low levels in a party with a max level char???
Ye, paladin class got like 5+ ninja nerfs from start.
Class itself is uselles in classic anyways without any nerf (except for healing boting or trolling in pvp for 10 sec).
Why they destroying it further is biggest mystery to me tbh…
Along with priest, shamans and warriors, paladin sux at gold farming. But at least other class can do something else (warriro selling tanking service and pvping, shaman and priest huge fun pvping), but paladins have like… nothing… at all…
My mistake, they have thier items and goods nerfed every few months… thats what they have.
Class should be removed from game until wotlk tbh…
Sure but its the wrong way to do it. They should just nerf XP from low lvls if they are in group with a high lvl, you dont need to break items or spells (AoE cap).

Neither skullflame nor demonforged are mandatory in 70 pala boosting, as long as they don’t nerf the on block trinket, you don’t need any of them to survive. Also the sporegar shield is way better for boosting in tbc

Yes i know. But for prepatch period it was BiS to solo farm gold. Speaking of sporegar shield, they might nerf it as well in the future considering they are doing balancing changes. So i would not feel 100% safe about that either.
A mage way safer imo if you want to invest into a booster or solo raw gold farmer now. But it is now obvious this type of gameplay is not something Blizz want and contrary to Classic they are changing / tweaking everything.

nooooooooooo my boosties waaaaaaaaaaaaah my 10k invested nooo blizzard dont do this
I didn’t expect prot paladin tears to start before TBC.
I mean I expected it to start when T4 content starts being run, as no guild needs 10 prot paladins in their roster.
GG blizzard, please nerf that block trinket too so we can have maximum tears.
Both items are useless for 70 boosting.
(except very low level dungeon boosts where you don’t need them.)

noooo, best pvp i had in wow after many years.
whats bad about this, you can make rogue streamers cry 
Because players either buy a boost or let themselves get boosted…there is no other option, amirite?

It was nerfed from like 100% spell co efficient to 5% huge nerf to those items it’s probably something they found broke the game on the beta with those items and had to nerf it a bit overkill though.
It will effect paladins on pre-patch current farms. I also wonder if they can still solo strat in tbc for gold with these items nerfed since that is what people are wanting to level a prot paladin for to farm it.
Is this authentic or not though?
