As always, this is not a comprehensive list of all adjustments we might make to the game. In particular, we’re considering tweaks to several classes’ Torghast powers. You’ll find our updated hotfixes post here, including all changes made to the game soon after they’re implemented.

Thank you for your feedback!

    That isn't how I read it, it looks like they're keeping the damage the same in PvP while buffing it for PvE.

    It's staying the same in PVP, increasing 20% in PVE.

    Its not a nerf, it literally remains unchanged.
    damage is increased by 20%, then reduced by 20% in pvp, meaning it now deals 20% more in pve and remains unchanged in pvp.

    So, 120%, subtract 20% in pvp, now Mortal Strike is down to 100%, this change basicly just offsets the pve increase.

    DK's didn't get nerfed though. They got buffed except Frost.

    Edit: I misread Unholy's. I was reading "effectiveness" and my mind blanked out and skipped "reduced" in the same sentence ><

    SO you were correct, @joxur.

    5% buff to havoc when they are 36% behind in ST compared to UNH?
    Yes, and they actually pay someone in balance team.
    This is preposterous and awful.
    Lazy, lazy, lazy.
