Talent Calculator - Build 9868
The Talent Calculator has been updated to the latest build.

WoW TCG - Field of Heroes
A new Trading Card Game expansion called "Field of Heroes" will be released in the upcoming weeks and will offer 3 new in-game rewards.
  • Magic Rooster Egg - Summons and dismisses a rideable Magic Rooster. No, seriously. This is a very fast mount.
  • Ogre Pinata - Places a candy-filled Ogre Pinata.
  • Path of Cenarius - Right Click to leave flowers in your wake. (This reward is most likely a revamped Path of Illidan with flowers instead of fire.

Ulduar Tuning Tweaks - 05/04/09

Ulduar Tuning Tweaks 05/04/09

All of the changes below have either already been applied or will be applied shortly, with the exception of Hodir's hard mode tweaks, which will go live after maintenance. Please try to keep spamming and trolling over the multiple slaps to the face included with these fixes to the bare minimum!*

Hard Mode Tuning (10 Normal/25 Heroic)
XT-002
  • Heart of the Deconstructor health reduced (10/25)

Assembly of Iron
  • Overwhelming Power duration increased to 30 seconds.
  • Amount Steelbreaker heals from Electrical Charge reduced to 20% of max health.

Hodir
  • Hodir hard mode timer increased from 2 minutes to 3 minutes. This hotfix will be applied during maintenance for both US and EU (respectively).

General Encounter Tweaks
Auriaya
  • Reduced number of Swarming Guardians from 25 to 10. Increased damage of swarm slightly to compensate.
  • Range on Savage Pounce lowered.
  • Damage of Savage Pounce reduced.

Thorim
  • The Iron Ring Guard’s Whirling Trip ability will now only hit the tank.

Freya
  • Elder Stonebark’s Petrified Bark ability won’t destroy melee.

Trash Tweaks
  • Removed first pack of trash from Conservatory.
  • General Vezax trash has received further tweaks.
  • Sappers should do much less damage when they blow up. They may or may not laugh like the Predator when they initiate the self-destruct sequence.

* That was a joke. Please try to keep spamming and trolling about this joke to the bare minimum.

*sigh* at above posters.


This is hard-mode tuning.  Hodir was considered mathematically impossible to defeat at 2 minutes, and Iron Council hardmode has only been killed with the help of pets tanking.


Both seem to be valid nerfs.

Thank you blizzard, for listening.


Edit:

Also, thank you for the spirit buff to moonkin Smiley

Seriously, these are proper tuning tweaks.

Things such as enrages that were absurd, timers that are impossible or the pounces from Auriyana roflstomping entire raids.

Well trash is in fact getting nerfed. The very first version of Mimiron/Vezax trash was alot of fun. Now it's basically back to the aoe farm state.

Consideering Hodir was mathematically impossible without glitching (call it what you want) a world buff and taking it to raid in order to beat the timer by .03 seconds I would say this is highly warranted and needed. We'll see how the extra minute adds up.

I wonder what nerfs they'll bring in to balance it out. It's clearly too overpowered buff for arena now!
