[Thelxi]

A Murder of Crows' damage has been increased by 80%

lmao! !

[Mortaeron]

When do these get applied in EU?

[TomGreen]

lmao! !

Yeah. Poor hunters aren't really getting the attention blizzard said they would. Another expansion of band aid fixes for them.

[Nightspear]

Server's are supposed to reset very soon. Maybe we will get them early?

@bradtrav6 @Celestalon @Warcraft Next round of scheduled realm restarts are tentatively scheduled for next Tuesday.

Something to keep in mind regarding the seemingly massive AMoC buff: Stampede will benefit from the newly buffed pet scaling.

Now someone please force restart the realms so this can take effect.

[Angrysteel]

The damage buffs are already live for the US. They did not require a server restart. Some of the PvE changes like Gunship etc probably require a restart, but the damage buffs are currently live.

[Zaity]

Is the attack power buff to pets enough to change stat weights for bm?

[marjolaine]

Didnt think about the new pet scaling and its effect on stampede! still think the other 2 are much better talents for all situations including pvp. Why stampede still only does 25% of its damage in pvp is unknown to me just reeks of laziness would much prefer a different talent but then again i never did like stampede all that much bit biased :P

How do you know?

[Solidito]

I just did Gunship and basically one shot the ship, it died as the first mage spawned, has it already gone live :O?

[Hayro1]

No clue. Is there a way to check? LOL, no update on Cele's Twitter post...so..

[reuva]

I finished the Gunship encounter before the Horde ship even made it next to us. Charged up the cannon, hit it with 99 heat for 1.34m damage. This was many hours ago. I think it's safe to say that the changes are already in play.

[Solidito]

Hunter changes aren't in effect yet (EU), well i'm still doing the same dps as I was, but I did the one shot gunship thing though. Consider myself confused.

[Dald]

It really doesn't feel like my abilities are hitting harder and murder doesn't seem to be ticking for any more than it did before. Maybe they aren't in just yet and require that restart after all.

It says right above the class changes "Note: All class balancing changes below will require a realm restart to take effect."

[Shynzo]

give me numbers, i need numbers

Yes, but someone was claiming that they went in and were working without a restart being needed.

[reuva]

Because yesterday I definitely wasn't finishing the Gunship encounter before it even started. Quite easy to assume that they had gone through. Nothing has changed as far as hunter damage goes, so I guess they haven't been implemented yet. Sorry to jump the gun so quick.
