Warlocks got Stealth Nerfed

[Grandork]

The only thing I noticed is that I'm dieing much quicker and that Absolute Corruption only lasts for 40 seconds, instead of 60. Anyone else notice other changes?

It's not a stealth nerf when it's documented, y'know. And it wasn't all nerfs.

Was needed, glad they didn't nerf it for pve. I feel like the class sort of falls apart when doing world quests etc without demon skin >.>

theres more to that nerf than the link, i am i lvl 855, i went from doing 400k+ dps in dungeons/raids to 190 with the same talents or is my meter not correctly reading?? cause now i cannot get in mythic +3-6 even if i beg cause the warlocks damage went down the toilet, i run writhe, contagion, siphon/dark soul depending on fight, demon skin , sac for aoe , service for ST , effigy.. did they nerf the effigy to the ground or is it just the meter i run skada/details.

Skada may have updated to not include damage to the effigy on the meters.

new affl. pvp stat template:
Haste: 150% (up from 100%)
Mastery: 125% (up from 100%)
Versatility: 25% (down from 100%)

can not play atm but 25% versatility seems kind of over the top. how does it feel ingame? are we now squishy as hell in pvp?

It's not overly noticeable, Versa was always a small % of damage increase/taken it's not as drastic as it first looks.

Mastery and Haste up to combat it anyway so it's all good.

Durability is about the same; the Vers DR wasn't very significant. Self-healing has been reined in a bit, so that you can't laugh off a 2v1 situation as easily anymore. Which feels a little bad, but is probably better for balance.

Correct me if I am wrong but they buffed our pvp dps and gimped survivability a bit?

[Xanatas]

mastery reduction for destruction is a huge, huge nerf. I can't kill in pvp now after the "fix".

chaos bolt after the +25% damage hit like a noodle in pvp

Most people were taking Howl of Terror rather than Demon Skin anyway

It still shows damage from the effigy, but it's low like 2 mil, on long boss fights where as before it was 4-5 mil, everyone's meters ate reading different like example I did 215 k on the last boss in mythic +3 DHT other people's Meters showed 170 where mine showed 215, one person's was out of date and showed me at 365 and told me I needed a nerf lol, i said i am nerfed and showed him my meter and a screen shot of my dps before the ninja nerf. I did test on the dummy in my class hall I do the same dps without popping effigy as i do when I do cast it so I'm thinking meter problem.
