Dragonflight 10.2 Hotfixes, November 14th: New Class Tuning

Recommended Posts

69809-official-dragonflight-expansion-pa
 

The big class tuning pass has arrived, but we have more than just the announced changes, as some specs got even more! There's also the change to consumable use in rated PvP, item adjustments and more, so let's dive in. The Amirdrassil tier set bonus changes were not included, however, so you'll have to head on over to the original tuning announcement for those.

Classes

  • Death Knight
  • Demon Hunter
    • Havoc
      • Chaotic Disposition Chaotic Disposition has been reworked to directly benefit the damage of affected abilities instead of duplicating portions of the damage they dealt. The amount of damage generated by the effect has not changed.
      • Chaotic Disposition Chaotic Disposition : Your Chaos damage has a 7.77% chance to be increased by 17%, occurring up to 3/7 total times.
    • Vengeance
  • Druid
    • Guardian
      • Mangle Mangle now grants 12 Rage (was 10).
      • Cat Form Cat Form energy regeneration increased by 50% (was 35%).
    • Balance
      • Cat Form Cat Form energy regeneration increased by 50% (was 35%).
    • Restoration
      • Rip Rip damage increased by 140%. Does not apply in PvP Combat.
      • Rake Rake damage increased by 60%.
      • Shred Shred damage increased by 140%.
      • Ferocious Bite Ferocious Bite damage increased by 200%. Does not apply in PvP Combat.
      • Cat Form Cat Form energy regeneration increased by 50% (was 35%).
  • Evoker
    • Augmentation
    • Developers’ notes: The amount of utility that Augmentation Evoker brings on top of its high damage has proven to be too powerful despite recent changes. Therefore we are further reducing their damage contributions to the group in order to balance them against other specializations.
  • Hunter
    • Various pet abilities that deal damage such as Kill Command Kill Command, Bite Bite, and Flanking Strike Flanking Strike will now properly reattribute damage to an Augmentation Evoker who has buffed the Hunter in the combat log.
    • Beast Mastery
      • Corrected an issue where the Bloody Frenzy Bloody Frenzy talent was granting the effects of Beast Cleave Beast Cleave for longer durations than intended and was not properly updating the personal nameplate Beast Cleave icon.
  • Paladin
    • Retribution
      • All ability damage increased by 3%.
  • Priest
    • Discipline
    • Developers’ notes: Discipline healing throughput (particularly in raids) is slightly higher than we would like, given their damage and utility contributions to the group. To balance them, we’re reducing some talents that are giving a lot of power for only 1 talent point. The goal is to improve talent balance while also bringing them in line with other healers.
  • Rogue
  • Warlock
    • Destruction
    • Demonology
      • Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible 2-piece Set Bonus now reduces the cooldown of Grimoire: Felguard Grimoire: Felguard by 0.5 second (was 1 second).
      • Developers’ notes: We’re reducing the power of Demonology’s previous set bonus to bring it in line with other set bonuses from Aberrus.

Items

  • Renown items purchased from Moon Priestess Lasara should now be eligible for conversion at the Revival Catalyst.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented Emerald Dream pets from being caged.
  • Seedbloom Seedbloom now stacks.

      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.
