    Patch 4.0.6 - PTR Build 13529

    Update Priest - Yep, screwed up on the Circle of Healing change. Fixed, sorry about that. (Blue Post)

    Patch 4.0.6 - PTR Build 13529
    A new build will be deployed on test realms very soon with a bunch of new changes. You probably already saw some of them in the official notes update from the past week, keep in mind that datamining isn't an exact science, if you're not sure about a change and if it's not in the official patch notes, wait for a confirmation from a blue poster before you whine about it.

    Spell Changes
    These changes are mostly the results of tooltip comparison, some changes might be outdated or just wrong because we suck at parsing data. If you have any doubt, check the official patch notes and if official patch notes do not exist for that change just assume it's very temporary or wrong.

    * Engineering: Nitro Boosts had "They rarely explode violently, so don't worry about that." added to its description.

    Hopefully this means it won't explode with 50% chance now on...

    Weird fixes for holy priests. Not a fan of not being able to extend the chakra anymore.. kinda lame. Although I think in a previous fix didn't they up the duration time? Hmm, going to have to check....

    but yay for all the shammy changes.

    One PTR patch they're buffing Circle of healing to make up for nerfing Prayer of Healing, then the next patch they're lowering CoH's range to be so small that it's only going to work on people in tight clumps.

    I'm not sure there's any rhyme or reason to some of these changes.

    "Engineering
    •Engineering: Nitro Boosts had "They rarely explode violently, so don't worry about that." added to its description. "

    I see someone else is also fast with replying on this.. I also belive that the expression of "rarely" in this case means 25%+ or me and Bloodly are both VERY unlucky..

    I wish archy rares had the same % of rarely as those boots to explode, then noone would complain about the rares anymore!

    Since when do rogues have/use focus and not energy? Did blizzard make that mistake or mmo-champion?

    Seems so, and I thought we would get buffed .

    Also about the engineering nitro boosts. I actually dropped it from my belt, because I exploded 9 out of 10 times, even within raids and dungeons -.-;.
