I think overall nerf for ARMS cleave dmg. Also Buffing execute looks pretty good. I'm not sure about Sudden death Changes.....

Most of them are TOOLTIP changes. Many of these things are already in game.

Personally I switched mains to a DK at the end of MoP and I'd love to call my main a warrior again, especially for PvP but these patch notes have just shown them being made even worse apart from an execute buff that would only help if we all fought bosses at 20%. My hunter has a 630 ilvl and still some 610 items, he can out damage my warrior by A LOT, I hate hunters (including my own) for that, it takes no skill either.

None of those changes are actually occuring, they are tooltip updates.

I hate having absolute ass damage in raids. I know, I know...tank....but still. Seeing my co-tank blood DK absolutely wreck shit is disheartening.

yep! It's actually amusing watching some of the threads on other class forums FREAKING out over...95% of which are tooltip changes.

Good nerf on Slam, it was so overpowered and everyone was using it (insert sarcasm)

This tooltip update likely reflects WHY no one is using it.

That Slam update was the one where Jalopy tackled devs in the official forum with an oxfordian and spot on "you have no fucking clue".

Pretty much this.. I want to use slam, and I don't understand how it ain't baseline. This is is bs!

Oh man i remember that, that was fucking hilarious.

Funny, after a quick calculation this is a nerf to gladiator, might be wrong though. Making GStance 10% instead of 5% would be a slight buff, which gladiator kinda needs.

that arms mastery buff seems like a really weird thing...

yeah after my ghetto calculations (aka can't be trusted), seems like a complete wash for gladiator but arms got a nice single target buff, should put it up to middle of the pack

[Pointysticks]

Should at least make prot's dps competitive with other tank dps, especially with the guardian druid thrash nerf

[Larsadius Rex]

I too would like a link to Jalopy tearing new assholes
