good, they need a few more kickings
- Fixed phasing issues with âA Birdâs Tailâ and âBattle Pet Bingoâ. Is this a joke? Nothing have changed and the issue with the phasing still exists. We are waiting more than 2 weeks for this bug to be fixed
November 26, 2024
Classes
- Death Knight
- Blood
- Developersâ notes: The tuning updates done to the Deathbringer hero talent tree at the beginning of the patch have notably affected Bloodâs output more than Frost. The damage effects of the keystone and the capstone talents are being increased to make Deathbringer a more competitive choice again.
- Deathbringer: Reaperâs Mark initial and stacking damage increased by 25%.
- Deathbringer: Exterminate damage increased by 25%.
- Deathbringer: Wave of Souls damage increased by 25%.
- Frost
- Developersâ notes: We are looking to increase Frostâs single-target damage while bringing down their AoE damage to help create a healthier damage profile.
- Obliterate damage increased by 12%.
- Frost Strike damage increased by 12%.
- Breath of Sindragosa damage reduced by 10%.
- Blood

- Restoration
- Swiftmend healing increased by 25%.
- Feral
- Hunter
- Survival
- Developersâ notes: Survival has found a lot of success with its 11.0.5 update to Merciless Blow in concert with Pack Leaderâs bleed synergies. Weâre adjusting it slightly to ensure the build is still competitive, but not quite as dominant.
- Merciless Blow damage reduced by 15%. Does not apply to PvP combat.
- Pack Leader: Vicious Hunt damage reduced by 20%. Does not apply to PvP combat.
- Survival
- Mage
- Developersâ notes: Frostfire is still underperforming for both Frost and Fire. Weâre targeting buffs to Frostfireâs various procs and providing a more substantial throughput buff via Fire Masteryâs Haste value.
- Fire
- Developersâ notes: Fire has been underperforming in single target and could use some help. Rather than distribute this bonus through a myriad of spells, weâre opting to put most of our budget into Pyroblast to ensure this spell is keeping pace with the rest of Fireâs kit.
- Frostfire: Fire Mastery now grants 2% Haste (was 1%).
- Frostfire: Isothermic Core Comet Storm effectiveness increased to 200% (was 150%).
- Frostfire: Frostfire Burst damage increased by 25%.

- Holy Word: Sanctify healing increased by 25%.
- Holy
- Rogue
- Developersâ notes: Deathstalker as a hero talent choice has been underserving Subtlety compared to the alternative choice of Trickster, especially in AoE circumstances. Black Powder is used far more frequently as Deathstalker than as Trickster and is receiving a sizable damage increase. Additionally, Deathstalkerâs Plague damage effects are being increased (for Subtlety only) to better align the overall contribution of each hero talent choice.
- Subtlety
- Deathstalker: Plague damage effects increased by 45%.
- Black Powder damage increased by 20%.
- Shaman
- Elemental

- Developersâ notes: Weâre reducing the power of Maelstrom Weapon spenders for Enhancement to lower their overall damage output.
- All Maelstrom Weapon spender damage reduced by 8%. This does not affect PvP combat.
- Elemental
- Warrior
- Developersâ notes: Colossus Warriors are meant to be innately tough and hard to kill, so weâre increasing their overall resilience. This is particularly aimed at helping level the field between Mountain Thane and Colossus for Protection Warriors, more passive resistance for Colossus versus Mountain Thaneâs more active mitigation playstyle.
- Arms
- Colossus: Mountain of Muscle and Scars now reduces damage taken by 5% (was 2.5%).
- Colossus: Dominance of the Colossus now causes enemies damaged by Demolish to deal up to 10% less damage to you (was 5%).

Another reminder to PLEASE rebuff Drain Life. Healthstones are NOT a good replacement. Warlocks have 0 mobility and limited defensive. They are supposed to be tanky casters. Now they are just slow stationary casters. Just that ONE change and ill be happy with the class.
