Also a lot of encounter journal strings, not really relevant but it looks like we'll get even more info from the journal. (Healer/DPS/Tank Alerts, Disease/Poison/Magic/Curse Debuff alerts, etc ...)

    The Gladiator drakes are Twilight dragons? I was hoping Blizzard would come up with something new and unique for them rather than an armored version of the OS25 mount. I hope the armor is really epic to make up for it, but seeing the past examples, I'm not holding my breath. Maybe they'll give an older version of the Twilight Drake for them to ride around on. That would be cool!

    little spooky we're seeing november/october events in this datamining. 4.2 in october? And they thought 600k lost subs was bad? Wait until people have to wait that long to do something new...

    since all heal crits are buffed to heal 200% they had to nerf healing surge because after riptide it had huge chance to crit which made healing surge better than greater healing wave. And that was not intended.

    Yes im mad today.
    Let's also not forget the expansion's nearly a year old at the end of Hallow's Eve. why shouldn't gear loosen up by that point?

    It will probably be out August or September. Blizzard has never released major content patch in June or July.

    Lol? Why else would they and other things [usually] be nerfed? It's because of PvP.

    Do they know this well afect Ele in PVP mostly??

    Quote: Sigh.. I understand that Shamans are OP in PvP, but come on... Shamans are arguably the worst PvE healers; a 20% nerf to Healing Surge.... really... really.

    Ahh yes i'm very very OP on my Ele in PVP .........
    And Elemental is getting some pretty huge PvP buffs in 4.2, if you didn't see. Obviously a nerf to HS isn't going to help Elemental or Enhance but their healing isn't supposed to be amazing. Elemental should be PvP viable in other ways, not through healing...

    Depends on what you are thinking. Reading minds isn't that easy!

    I'm just glad they fixed the paladin set, and the mage 4-pc is SO BROKEN for arcane.
  1. mercutiouk's Avatar
    Now they seem to be destroying the only viable shaman PVP spec could they maybe buff the others a tiny bit? To a level of "not a joke" would be fine. For enhance, i'll even live with the wolves doing a little less (as healing AND pressure is maybe a bit too much) but buff the base damage a touch and give an actual dps cooldown. Mages are complaining they can't nuke a healer on their own without blowing everything. Jesus I can only dream!
  1. obscurede's Avatar
    i dont get it, why are they tampering with the holy shield back and forth, reverted to the old one and now back again to the current status....

    and yeah the necrotic strike nerf is not actually a nerf mathematically speaking (5% increase in str)
