Bleed buffs are now 4% physical damage buffs

[Sesamee]

Pet - Exotic Rhino
Stampede - Now causes the enemy to take 4% increased physical damage, rather than 30% increased damage from bleeds.
Pet - Boar
Gore - Now causes the enemy to take 4% increased physical damage, rather than 30% increased damage from bleeds.
Pet - Hyena
Tendon Rip - Now causes the enemy to take 4% increased physical damage, rather than 30% increased damage from bleeds.

I wonder what will happen to the Ravager ability. At least my boar, Kuuipo, will maybe get to see some raid action in MoP. Does anyone know if the information on which classes will also be bringing the 4% physical damage buff come MoP has been released? Or is it still warriors and rogues as far as we know?

Hee, this did deserve its own thread.

I like that we have three (five if BM) choices for that debuff.

I agree that this needed its own thread. I deleted my post on the other thread and posting it here.

I wonder with so many pets now having 4% increased physical damage debuff that ravagers and worms will get something different, or with the decrease of major buffs and debuffs more pet families will share similar abilities.

Wassa will stick stick with her ravager if they don't change their abilities, but I think Ptay will be using her hyena now instead.

I just did some research on my own question and found this:

Physical Vulnerability
Effect: +4% physical damage taken
Example: Brittle Bones
Brought by: Frost and Unholy death knights, Retribution paladins, Arms and Fury warriors

So basically any plate melee dps class will also be bringing the buff. Maybe poor Kuuipo won't get to see a raid after all! At least not many. There's always LFR, sigh!

I'll make my comment here instead of there, too:

Pet - Boar
Gore - Now causes the enemy to take 4% increased physical damage, rather than 30% increased damage from bleeds.

May I just say: OMGYEEESSS! I can get rid of my ravager (I never really liked them) and use my *FLAMING BOAR* in actual instances! ... that is, if I'm not using my worm for the AOE. But this is... it's just... OH MY GOD YES!

If you need me, I'll be over on my giant fainting chair.

Since you can make him Ferocity, you can still bring him in raids

Yeah, but I run 10m (unfortunately) so I'll probably be needed to provide a buff with a pet, or several through out the raid night. We have the 4% covered as of now. It's all preliminary though of course so may change before MoP goes live.
