Well...

On one hand I am happy I can get my energy generating bonus at 2 pieces from the rogue-set now. On the other, pushing the second bonus to 4 parts makes 13% chance feel a little low for a near completed set.
I'd accept 2 combo points at 20/25% too or something instead of 3 for 13%.

[falleh]

iam very happy with the rogue 4 piece bonus. it´s dangerous to push the 13% for example to 25%, because with enough luck you are able to spam envenom with 4cp all the time... this scenario would push rogue dps to heaven imo.

the 2 piece bonus is nice, but not usefull in all situations :-/
and when i compare the rogue 2 piece bonus with other classes 2 piece bonuses its a bit too low.

Instead of the nameplates trying to sort themselves, they just overlap. We think this makes them more useful for very large groups (example: Onyxia whelps).

Good change. Though I would've preferred something in the 3D world instead of a 2D overlay.

There was a game that did this, but I don't remember which. It had health rings at the base of a things. And the ring would deplete and change colors based on health. Would really make healing more easier. Especially now that all healing classes have AOE heals, its hard to tell if your spell will hit enough targets to make it worth it (though pally AOE heal is "free"). You could spot a cluster of red/orange health rings and hit your AOE in the middle of them.

"The Witcher" does this.

I personally would like to see some sort of tracker (like EVE's radar) that groups up the targets which would have various settings for sorting them. If I could write addons, I'd give it a try, but alas

warrior 2 pc dps bonus sucks major ass. Modeled stochastically it comes out to a roughly 1.96% increase in AP. That translates into roughly 1-1.5% more damage. Compare that with for instance the enh shaman 2 piece which equals into exactly 4% more damage overall. Its literally over 3 times as good

I'm not gonna argue with the warrior math part, but unless I'm mistaken, Shamanistic Rage as a 1 min CD right? So 25% uptime, and 25% of 12 is 3. So That's a 3% dps increase. I'm sure all the final numbers should work out to be about the same, don't forget it's the PTR and likely to be some tweaks.

Also something to think about. Classes/specs scale differently so giving a 3% bonus to Enhance and a 2% to warriors might make up the difference in scaling. I'm glad to see mages finally got a haste bonus. Overall everything looks really good.

[Vardjavi]

Warlock changes are nice 10% dmg is better than haste

Totally /agree. This is much better.

Warlock

2 Pieces: (Updated) The critical strike chance of your Shadowbolt, Incinerate, Soulfire, and Corruption spells is increased by 5%.
4 Pieces: (Updated) Each time your Immolate and Unstable Affliction spells deal periodic damage, you have a 15% chance to gain 10% damage done by you and your pet for 10 seconds.

Even the 2p bonus is better than yesterdays.

•2 Pieces (Damage): (Updated) Your Obliterate and Scourge Strike abilities deal 10% increased damage., and your Heart Strike ability deals 7% increased damage.

no love for frost strike :\

[Nightsyte]

Honestly, anyone saying the Hunter set bonuses are "godly" hasn't seriously looked at them. We are the ONLY class in Tier 10 with BOTH our bonuses on a wildly RNG low 5% proc chance.

5%.


5.

Every other class has at least one of their bonuses that occurs with a 30% or greater probability.

[Melanie]

mage setbonuses look rly nice, me like

[Akabane]

Wonder what balance reason made them switch one of the DK bonuses to +7% Heart Strike? Too much Health return on Death Strike? Or Heart Strike being a greater percentage of DK damage, and hence of greater benefit?

I do greatly approve of the Scourge Strike adjustment to part physical. 8)

[Sanguissa]

Ok, holy paladin 4pc is damn situational, but it will be usefull if there will be a lot of running in t10 encounters.

But what about 2 pc setbonus, its so damn lame and useless, we have so much crit atm that we reallz dont need one lame crit every minute..


Where is the discusion panel pls?

[BoyOne]

Update - Tier 10 Set Bonuses have been updated once again for Death Knight (Damage), Druid (Balance), Warlock, Warrior (Damage)
Druid

• 2 Pieces (Balance): (Updated) When you gain Clearcasting from your Omen of Clarity talent, you deal 15% additional Nature and Arcane damage for 6 seconds.

Mmm can somebody explain me this.. This is a stat no balance ever takes (go that deep into resto tree for) Why make this a balance stat when it is in the wrong tree and it is completely not useful ???

•2 Pieces (Damage): (Updated) Your Obliterate and Scourge Strike abilities deal 10% increased damage., and your Heart Strike ability deals 7% increased damage.

no love for frost strike :\

No death coil either, what's your point? The primary nuke of (mainstream) frost builds is Obliterate.

[Zarahtra]

I'm a bit surprised that people are qqing already about the 2 set bonus of retri paladins. You have to keep it in mind that for PvE Divine storm is a pretty shite dps ability. It comes 4th(3rd skipping HoW) out of 6(5) abilities paladin uses. This might be a bit interesting, if simulations with the bonus will make DS better to get on CD asap to hope for a procc or not, else GCDs are pretty filled most the time so this bonus might in the end just sub a DS in, instead of exo or cons rather than being an extra ability.

Anyway shite 4pc bonus for Prot paladins(and to a bit lesser extend prot warrs), shame.

[Kool Kids Klub]

Mage bonuses are now sexy, I can't wait

[Ealyssa]

•2 Pieces (Damage): (Updated) Your Obliterate and Scourge Strike abilities deal 10% increased damage., and your Heart Strike ability deals 7% increased damage.

no love for frost strike :\

Frost dps use Obliterate
UH use SS
Blood use DS (and HS)

I can't see any problem, every spec has a bonus.

[Gigajot]

mmm i liked that i could see nameplates through objects :/

the stacking thing is awesome though

[Eleclight]

I hope they are going to do something about the Prot Pally 4pt10. It's still rather bad compared to the other tanks' bonuses. I mean, 12% damage reduction for 10 seconds is way better than 12% increased dodge

[Deleted]

Yay, hooray for changes \o/

[amielle]

Still no love for holy paladins? Not one good comment on the 2pc on that discussion thread yet.

Because it's a horrid Tier bonus. I prefer 10sec longer judgements over that, and I hate T9. Sigh.
