3% woohoo, not sure where they get that, still puts us firmly lower-mid in ST.
I’d love to know how they come up with these numbers, I work so, so hard in raid just be top 10, flat buffs are not the answer, buff individual abilities.
3% Havoc might do more dmg in M+ that Vengeance now.
1: stop with the generic flat buff everything x %.
2: start targeted spell buffing for the love of GOD!
3: Havoc is over 30% behind the top dogs on MOST fights and you are buffing the class 3%? Who is doing your QA? Who on earth are you talking to to get these numbers? How on earth are you coming up with numbers like that?
16 YEARS playing this game without any LAPSE and you are getting me very close to quitting.
Get your act together and start getting feedback from people that know. Also peer review your class designers, they are NOT doing their job.
for hunter it is fine, it was the exact same number they nerfed hunters whit before SL launched. it should help some atleast, how much is hard to say though.
How about tuning damage numbers for individual abilities and talent rows that do squat all as well? You know, to make the abilities feel worthwhile to press? Monks first row of talents, crusader strike, fire mage aoe row etc…
