Concordance of the Legionfall Hotfix
Concordance of the Legionfall has been hotfixed! Proc rate was also slightly increased.

  • Chance to activate slightly increased.
  • Now grants 4,000 Strength, Agility, Intellect, or Versatility at rank 1 (was 2,000).
  • Additional ranks now increase this value by 300 per rank (was 200).
  • Effects are now reduced by 50% in PvP situations.
  • Developers’ Note: While additional ranks of Concordance of Legionfall are intended to have a low impact, the trait was overall weaker than it needed to be. With these changes, it provides a stronger up-front benefit, and very slightly more value for Artifact Power spent past the first rank. These changes also result in an overall nerf in PvP, where we are continuing to monitor its performance.

Hi everyone! There’s a few things to call out for this PTR update:

First, we’re continuing iteration on 7.2.5 class changes, and this build has some pretty substantial changes for a couple of specs. Arms Warriors in particular have a lot of updates and revisions, and both Marksmanship and Beast Mastery Hunters have several changes to their Honor Talents.

We’re also continuing to iterate on Tier 20 set bonuses, and have added several new Legendary items in this build. Once the PTR is up (or shortly thereafter), you should be able to find the new Legendaries on Flaskataur in Dalaran if you’d like to give them a try.

We’ve turned on the Darkmoon Faire for this week as there’s a new band in town! The concert event starts every hour on the half hour. We’d like to get some testing and feedback, so please let us know what you think!

This build also has a tweak to Mythic Keystone difficulty. Specifically, the amount of health and damage that enemy creatures get from each additional difficulty level is increasing from 8% health and damage to 10% per keystone level. When we increased the overall difficulty of Mythic+ dungeons in 7.2, we didn't fully account for the increase in power that players would get from their new Artifact Traits. That hasn't been a major problem just yet, but once the Tomb of Sargeras raid opens and the maximum item level from drops increases, everyone’s going to get a LOT stronger in a hurry, which will quickly compound the issue. We're making this change to ensure that things don’t get too out of hand at the top end of the spectrum.

Lastly, we’d like to do another Skirmish with the Blues this week to gather some data on where PvP balance currently sits on the PTR to assist with PvP tuning. We’re scheduling this for Friday, May 26 from 2 PM to 4 PM Pacific time (5 PM to 7 PM Eastern). Any data we can get at this stage will be extremely helpful, so we hope you’ll join us.

Thanks again everyone, and happy testing!

As always, this testing schedule is very fluid and subject to the realities of a PTR environment. We might have to change the time of a testing session, change the bosses being tested, or cancel a test entirely, due to bugs, server hardware issues, etc. Keep an eye on this forum for the latest information, and thank you in advance for testing and providing feedback.

    Why do Priests keep getting crapped on? And when is Blizzard going to start tuning their DPS for shadow? They start off good at the beginning of expansions but then they're way over tuned.

    They gonna do nothing... s2kappa is to strong if we get a buff... with t20 i think the s2kappa is going to be used again (if stay equal to ptr).

    We have to wait until 8.+

    Holy shit the new shadow legendary looks so goddamn awful. When would anyone EVER want to use that?
  1. agentsi's Avatar
    Blizzard further showing that they don't want warlocks to play any spec other than Affliction. Wasn't destro supposed to get re-worked so it could be played on equal footing with Aff? Might as well throw that out the window now.
  1. girltoy26's Avatar
    I looked at the new Shadow legendary, and then looked at everyone else's legendary, and I cried. Blizzard, what the hell were you thinking with this? It has to be a placeholder, there's no way this is intended. You've managed to add a legendary worse than the VE hat. This is arguably one of the worst legendary ideas I've seen floated for ANY spec, and that's saying something.

    To put into perspective, they buffed something that hits like a noodle left in a pot of water for a week, so 400% of hardly anything is STILL HARDLY ANYTHING. Furthermore, we can only use AFTER getting enough insanity to pop void eruption. on ST it will be absolute garbage and on trash, we STILL have to spend all this time dotting the shit out of everything before popping void eruption and by then EVERYTHING IS DEAD.

    Seriously what the @$(* is this?

    Oh I dunno, if you used it in conjunction with the twins painful touch it goes from being utterly useless to merely laughably pathetic.

    Holy crap those legendaries. Guardian Druids get a cloak that increases their damage by 30%?! AND heals them with that damage?! How can you compete against that?!
    Compare that with Vengence DH legendary... demon spikes and empower wards get an additional charge.
    For Veng, another charge on empower wards is pretty good... if going up against a magic heavy boss. I could see it allowing the razor spikes build to be a bit better, but these charges don't really do the same thing as increasing the damage of rotational abilities.

    The Arcane mage legendary I admit I know very little on. I do play arcane on my 110 mage exclusively, but since I haven't raided with it, or done anything except pvp and dungeons... I never really leave burn phase and use arcane barrage. Could a more experienced Arcane mage say whether or not this is actually good?

    The majority of the damage dealt by guardian isn't nature/arcane damage, so it won't really be a 30% boost or 30% of their DPS as healing. For the most part it will only effect Moonfire, brambles if they're talented into it, etc. It's not as big as you're reading it to be.

    * Soul of the Forest Your finishing moves deal 10% increased damage and grant 5 Energy per combo point spent. Feral Druid - Level 75 Talent.

    ....Damnit blizzard. YOU KNOW THIS STILL DOESNT COME CLOSE TO SAVAGE ROAR. Trading Savage Roar for Soul of the Forest means you're losing a +25% damage bonus on your Rakes, Shreds, Swipes/Brutal Slash, Thrashes and Auto-Attacks just to buff Rip by 50% and starve yourself with expensive and mediocre FB's until the cows come home. This talent seems like it's been changed to help players use it as a stepping stone towards learning feral, or to be used as a weakier passive alternative for players struggling to keep Savage Roar's uptime at 100%.

    This talent could be pretty sick If we had a legendary that heavily buffed Ferocious Bites damage, but it's just not viable if you want to excel at your class.
