Recommended Posts

The massive class tuning is upon us with the reset, as both PvE and PvP get a whole lot of adjustments. We also have Aberrus tuning, as Zskarn gets big nerfs and Magmorax gets a small change as well.

  • Classes
    • Druid
      • Balance

        • Developers’ notes: The cast time on Cyclone is too fast for enemy players to deal with, so we’re reducing its cast speed from Owlkin Adept and also reducing Precognition’s haste in Fractures in Time. Solar Beam’s duration lasting 8 seconds was an oversight, as it should have been reduced in the crowd control reduction pass in Embers of Neltharion.
          • [With weekly restarts] Owlkin Adept reduces the cast time of Cylcone and Entangling Roots by 15% (was 20%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Solar Beam lasts 6 seconds in PvP combat (was 8 seconds).
      • Restoration

        • [With weekly restarts] Reactive Resin’s snare duration increased to 8 seconds (was 5 seconds).

      • [With weekly restarts] Catharsis now stores 15% of damage taken (was 20%) and the stored amount cannot exceed 12% of the Priest’s maximum health (was 15%).
      • Discipline
        • Developers’ notes: Discipline damage and Atonement healing continues to be lower than we’d like in PvP, so we’re increasing them to allow Discipline to be more offensive.
          • [With weekly restarts] All damage is now increased by 10% in PvP Combat.
          • [With weekly restarts] Atonement healing is now increased by 70% in PvP Combat (was 50%).
      • Shadow
        • Developers’ notes: Instant damage from Catharsis and Unfurling Darkness is accounting for more of Shadow’s burst damage than we were aiming for, so we’re bringing their power down. Shadow is also getting PvE damage buffs that affect PvP which puts some of this power loss back into rotational spells.
          • [With weekly restarts] Unfurling Darkness now deals 25% reduced damage in PvP Combat.
    • Rogue
      • Subtlety
        • [With weekly restarts] Secret Technique damage now reduced by 40% in PvP Combat (was 33%).
        • [With weekly restarts] Thief’s Bargain (PvP Talent) damage penalty increased to 10% (was 6%).
    • Shaman
      • Developers’ notes: We’re redistributing the amount of healing from instant cast sources for all Shaman and increasing the power of cast heals, so that cast heals are both more frequent and more meaningful.
      • [With weekly restarts] Healing Stream healing is now increased by 20% in PvP combat (was 30%).
      • Elemental
        • [With weekly restarts] Earth Shield healing is now reduced by 40% in PvP combat (was 30%).
        • [With weekly restarts] Healing Surge healing is now increased by 20% in PvP combat.
      • Enhancement
        • [With weekly restarts] Earth Shield healing is now reduced by 40% in PvP combat (was 30%).
        • [With weekly restarts] Healing Surge healing is now increased by 4% in PvP combat (was reduced by 13%).
      • Restoration
        • [With weekly restarts] Earth Shield healing is now reduced by 15% in PvP combat.
        • [With weekly restarts] Healing Surge healing is now increased by 27% in PvP combat (was 6%).
        • [With weekly restarts] Healing Wave healing is now increased by 56% in PvP combat (was 30%).

        • [With weekly restarts] Water Shield now regenerates 75% more mana from its passive effect in PvP Combat.
    • Warlock
      • Developers’ notes: We’re targeting the defensive power of Demonology with these changes as they are often a difficult target to take down relative to other DPS specs. We’re also lowering the healing from Mortal Coil to lower overall self-healing from Warlocks in PvP.
        • [With weekly restarts] Mortal Coil healing is now 50% effective in PvP Combat.
        • [With weekly restarts] Soul Link’s shared damage with the Warlock’s pet is now 50% effective in PvP Combat.
        • [With weekly restarts] Profane Bargain’s increase to the effectiveness of Soul Link at low health is now 40% effective in PvP Combat.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
