Class Balance & Hotfixes - 10/19

Unread post by Adam-Savage »

Seems like we got ourselves a Hunter buff.

Specifically, we increased the damage of the signature abilities (Chimera Shot, Explosive Shot and Kill Command) by 15-25%. This will both improve overall damage-dealing and make sure that these abilities are prioritized higher than other shots. We think this will bring hunters to a good enough state until they hit 85. Aspect of the Fox and Cobra Shot solve some specific issues at higher levels. Marksman hunters may still trump Survival and Beastmaster hunters until they’re 85, since their rotations rely a little on Cobra Shot.

No mention of our overall sucky PvP damage? D:

Sorry, that sounds terribly ungrateful. I'm glad they're upping the signature shots. It's just that the buff to resilience is hurting us the most...or seems to be.

It was actually for casters, there was a moonkin able to kill people by just spamming insect swarm evidently. Tho caster vs melee and if caster is kiting successfully then yeah it's always gonna hurt...

not been in BG after the patch tho, I will check it out later.

not like it matters I just have mostly pve gear

Oh, no, resilience needed the buff. It's just that I noticed my damage drop again after that...but then again, I'd mostly just been taming after the patch, so I may have been too SQUEEEEE to notice that it was the initial patch that dropped my damage.

Or maybe it's that I can't just run around in PvE gear again. :lol:

Well in wg on my server pve and pvp doesn't really make much difference because the horde always have tenacity.
