As of a few hours ago today (October 24), we corrected a bug that allowed Outlaw Rogues to contrive conditions in which they could do very high damage.

We are now working on removing clearly exploited runs from leaderboards and taking account actions where appropriate.

Thank you to all who reported this.

With the changes made in patch 11.0.5 to increase the effectiveness of several Elemental talents and cooldowns such as Ascendance, the Lightning Rod talent greatly overperformed. With a hotfix that went live a little while ago:

• Elemental
  
  • Lightning Rod now transfers 10% of all lightning damage dealt to Lightning Rod targets (was 20%).

This reduction should significantly reduce its effectiveness in AoE damage situations, and less so when fighting a single target.

This change may require Shamans who were online and using the Stormbringer hero talent tree to either log out and back in or swap to the Totemic hero talent tree and back to the Stormbringer hero talent tree for their Conductive Energy hero talent to properly work.
