How will Blizz make shadow stack haste?

[snaxattax]

given blizzards track record thus far, they'll do it by nerfing its alternatives

so, more nerfs to DP to gut AS, huge nerfs to our mastery, and then the smallest possible buff to vent to make it the go to talent. mmw.

That's... Fairly accurate. Except our mastery already kinda sucks and there's no VEnt buff.

Well without reforging, gems, enchants you are forced into any stat they wanna give you

Why on earth would they attune us to haste instead of crit? DafuQ?

[Haikus]

Personally I just wish they'd give each talent its own attuned stat. Idk if its possible, but getting crit when AS, mastery when COP, and haste when Vent would be amazing.

The problem with just giving us more haste is it's already drop dead easy to run headlong into the GCD soft cap. If you wanna make haste more valuable, the first step is to let Shadow's GCDs go below 1 second like a melee class.

It's even more hilarious when you consider that with haste buffs and bloodlust, it becomes increasingly more difficult for us to channel Insanity, our single high DPS nuke. We noticed this in the SoO pre-patch and it seems as we move into HFC, even with the ability to bank 5 Orbs, high haste will remain an annoyance. And that's our attuned stat. #justblizzardthings

if they want us to stack haste, have insanity not reduce in duration with haste. 99% of the time it's just an annoyance when you're dealing with (ex) troll racial + bloodlust and then darmac proc as your mindblast lands (so your mindblast cd blows and your DP only gives you like 1.5 sec of insanity).

I wanna know why they don't just change it to "increases the damage of the next 6 ticks of mind flay by 100%" to avoid all the complications introduced with haste.
