Patch 7.1.5 PTR - Build 23244

[Croffile]

Is the post/changes contradicting itself or am I missing something?

Al'Akir's Acrimony - Chain Lightning deals 10% increased damage up from 5%

Al'Akir's Acrimony Chain Lightning deals 10% 5% increased damage to each subsequent target.

That is irrelevant. The bracers are a big boost whether you like to admit it or not. a 50% nerf down from 300% shouldn't be enough considering they are nerfing all the other legendaries, even the ones that are crap now, into the ground.

Mate, when you have absolutely no fucking idea what you're talking about, you should shut the fuck up. First, fire mage, live or PTR, is middle of the pack at best on single target. Secondly, and that's where I know you have no fucking idea what you're driveling about, if fire bracers where anywhere below 250%, they would become a dps loss. Hardcasting a pyro for 5 sec for a mediocre spell, even buffed at 200%, is way less effective than doing your normal rotiation.

The legendary nerfs are hilarious when you notice the Fire Mage bracers have gone from 300% to 250%, meaning it's still crazily good.

Why tf would they nerf prydaz, greenskin, cinidarias, and wel, basically all the other already trash legendaries

Prydaz is still buffed compared to what it is on live atm. Currently on live it's 15% of health if you don't take damage for 5 seconds. Now it's going to be 25% of health every 30 seconds.

Its really not "crazy good" nerfing it any lower then it is makes it not worth the 4 second cast time.

[Eviltroll]

Good lord it is showing how disconnected the devs are with the player base.

Disconnected? These are not devs, this bunch of braindeads had worked hard since the launch of this expansion to prove their incompetence, they're nothing more than some fuckin euglenas.I really hope Mike Morhaine wakes up one day ,slams the door into their office and slaps their faces with a big bad dick, for the mockery @ his hard work and succes that WoW ,was at some point!

[Sleepypan]

Sick hunter changes...not

Call of the Wild - Cooldown of all Aspects is reduced by 35% down from 50%
The Apex Predator's Claw - Now grants 5% increased damage, down from 10%.

JUST WHY... So 35% so it lines up with nothing probably

Also yeah lets trash the meme shield neck more

Do blizzard just roll a dice or something to determine the numbers on any of these changes or something?

[mrgreenthump]

That makes it so much worse. Why nerf legendaries that are already considered "trash" and keep the ones that are god tier hardly untouched? They really have no idea the kind of mess they've created with these legendaries

?

Looking at Fire "DPS" legendaries, TW ring and DB head have been unchanged, the belt got a buff and bracers got a nerf both in modifier reduction and synergies as they get much less procs now(crit reduction) and the removal of Ice Floes.

So if anything they've pretty much balanced them to a point, there is actual choice.

So... What about those Fire mage bracers....

They cant possibly mean they are gonna keep them at 275%

[bigfatlip]

Patch 7.1.5 may as well wait till 7.2 since they have reverted almost every change they have made and nerfed whatever they have changed ontop of that. They should just say, hey remember all those sweet changes we made to legendaries, yea those are going away and then were nerfing them all cause we hate you little shits. Oh and btw were gonna shit on most of your classes cause we have this sweet aura that buffs all your abilities that makes it look like your going to get 5-10% dmg buff but then were nerf that to in a later patch so stay tuned!!

[Dartz1979]

It's rare enough to get a legendary now they nerf them geeze wth man.

[Deleted]

People whine that you need X legendary or else they won't be competitive. which is true.

Now the devs nerf the legendaries that are considered to be much better than the other to even the gap between bad and good ones which is an awesome change, and people still whine.

They've even stated they will tune the classes after the nerfs to the legendaries to ensure that specs come out net-neutral or close to. Stop fucking whining

[mrgreenthump]

What choice for guys with Prydaz, Sephuz, Norgannon, Belovir?

No choice.

Pretty much, but that is the problem with the system. In raid enviroment as a DPS only class, as long as there is a DPS upgrade available, you will take it over everything, unless you die if you don't take a defensive option. I'd much rather have no legendaries and some of the passives baked into the spec, but this is what we've been given, sadly.

[Elerubard]

Does Apocolypse really need a nerf?

[Dire]

.................................

[Deiae]

People whine because they get the legendaries that they felt so happy to get after potentially countless farmruns nerfed in their faces. It isn't an awesome change at all. This whole issue of whether they can get the balance right this time could be avoided if the legendaries were really common from now on. I don't see that anyone would feel joyful if they get legendaries that are all neutered to not matter more than say a good trinket.

[Emeraldon]

Does Apocolypse really need a nerf?

No, it doesn't. And they said they're buffing the ghouls by 33%, but that is absolutely fucking terrible considering they also nerfed the amount of ghouls we get and bracers.

Congrats to all the 1337 people who got the short end of the rng stick. Your cries were heard.

[Riens]

PS: Moar Nerfs to Warlocks please moar nerfs , cause still few locks are playing the game out there...

[Trapmastery]

This xpac is becoming garbage... honestly blizzard has no fucking whatever they are doing.

Just "Fun detected and nerfed" routine. They should die in car accident or something to replace morons.
