The nerfing Meat Cleaver part really puzzles me. It's at best a very niche talent when you want to, I dunno, pad on Sun King or some shit. WW getting buffed by 8% isn't going to make it anything close to meta since it's way worse than the other 2 talents on ST which is required even for M+ anyway.
Anyway, I've accepted Fury being bad on ST for the foreseeable future. It's not even a true 8% buff there since that doesn't include auto-attacks. But at least it's a bit of something, and our AoE was indeed buffed since most of it is composed of cleaving Rampage/Condemn which get buffed.
It is all that is left unsaid upon which tragedies are built -Kreia
The internet: where to every action is opposed an unequal overreaction.
Nice - right now assa do decent dps when you focus on execute phase. After 8% it will be best st spec again.All damage abilities increased by 8%.
Poor tuning fix.
Assuming this is real and correct it doesn't tell the whole story in terms of PVP. The burst window is highly important in PVP.
Look at rets - poor dmg but their burst is massive. If they get on top of you you're going to have a bad time but they're usually in the bottom half of total dmg in an battleground.

It's probably you because ww smacks hard in pvp.
Sure, Retribution back to shit.. It was nice to be middle of the pack for a while.
Class tuning by Blizzard will always remind me of this saying: “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.”
Although, in every case with class tuning, it's "you can please some people some of the time, and absolutely enrage everybody else all of the time."
Most people enraged the fact that some of the buff they are making is very underhanded. That %9 buff they do to frost mages solves nothing because it will be still %10 percent behind fire pretty much. It just takes it away from unplayable levels of bad to shit. Same with destro, they buffed the cb, but the spec is still garbage, demo is a bloody joke, fury warrior buff will be around %4 overall at best which is a fucking joke, sin buffs will be the same, which is a fucking joke.
I am all for buffing weaker classes than nerfing good classes. Imo since content is cleared to a extent that buffing classes and tuning next raid according to that is infinately easier than make the raid then try to bring up dog shit specs up again.
Like seriously, where is demo, destro, prot war, holy priest, survival, bm buffs. Where are they? They didn't do a tuning pass because of x-mas, which was 2 weeks to 3 weeks of fucking nothing and this tuning pass is actually bad. Im glad some of the specs at least got buffs but is not even enough, its way to underhanded.
