wait , isnt hammer of wrath attack based on weapon dmg , and the dmg scale with the weapon dmg??

@avalithvanguard Unholy is doing great right now IMO. Ret was average on some fights, low on others, and didn't have a good fight to shine.
wow never thought i would see GC saying that about Ret o0
Considering most real progression guilds dont even use Ret lol, i dont think there will be any worry, and if you look at raidbot, ret is near the bottom in almost all of them, so thinking that this buff is going to take you from bottom to near the top like fire mages, reality?
I am pretty happy about this. It should go a long way to making our sustained damage pretty decent.
Reduce guardian to 10% strength every 2 minutes for a better line up with AW and buff SoL another 10%
Divine Protection should be changed to castable while cc'd and remove stun/fear effects
Major glyph turn evil is now baseline
Aura Mastery now removes silence
I agree with almost all of this. But personally I would rather see the Guardian change. Instead of doing its own damage and giving up to 20% more Str, I think it should turn you into the Guardian increasing your damage by 10% and making all the damage you do Holy for 20 seconds.
I prefer that they reduce the guardian cd to 2 mins instead of 5 mins and reduce the dmg buff to 10%. By doing that it will also benefits retri inside challenge mode gold run because the way it's at the moment you can only barely use the guardian twice or maybe once in a single gold challenge mode.
I'm happy for you all. I went Prot this expansion because given the option and with Ret being a waste of a spot, why not?
But hey, you only had to wait more than halfway into it for the buffs everyone's been asking for eh?
Next beta, make sure to beat GC about the head with this + the Cata debacle as much as possible and maybe, just *maybe* you'll be in the right spot third time lucky...
Confirmed considerable buffs for Ret and Enh on GC's twitter, as a ret since late BC, I can not wait I'm normally top 3 DPS in my 25m Raid group, so I would say ret is already in a good spot :/
Although, I am waiting for a burst nerf sadly...
