    What I can't understand is why they pushed these changes into a hotfix rather than the scheduled 4.2 patch. The healing surge and drain life changes both heavily impact playstyle.

    That would explain why my dps went down a tad :/. Thought I was just messing up or in the wrong presence.

    PvP nerfs that will honestly affect this season's play; I'd say that that warrants a hotfix.

    Dear Blizzard,
    Show no mercy.
    Sincerely, non-Shaman healers everywhere.

    I dont play a shammy, im working on my shammy to get 85 and trying to heal and this nerf for 4.2 made sense since gear scaling would mean it might become to big a heal. but was is so strong that it needed a T11 nerf? or is one more PvP nerf that screws over PvE players

    Why Drain Life, it doesn't even do that much damage!

    Nothing OP about it, really. Just another case of PvE getting a gut-punch from PvP.

    I find it quite amusing they decided to stick the the overall damage nerf instead of trying to fix the PvP side of it properly.

    This nerf is just a bullet in the foot, since we're not even competing for top #3 in competent guilds on damage done, and they decided to give us a nerf anyway.
