Posted 7 hr 6 min ago by Archimtiros

Additional changes to the Curse of Ula’tek PTR:

CLASSES

DRUID

Restoration

Fixed an issue where Abundance’s bonus critical strike chance to Regrowth was not working correctly.
Fixed an issue where the Abundance effect would not properly be extended by Flourish.
Regrowth healing reduced by 20%.

EVOKER

Preservation

Fixed an issue where Consume Flame healing was not being increased by Grace Period or similar effects.
Fluttering Seedlings healing is now also increased by Titan’s Gift.

HUNTER

Beast Mastery

Hero Talents

Dark Ranger

Fixed an issue where Through The Eyes was not properly increasing Withering Fire’s damage.

Marksmanship

Fixed an issue where applying Spotter’s Mark: Rapid Fire after Rapid Fire had finished channeling but before all of its projectiles had reached the target would improperly consume the Spotter’s Mark: Rapid Fire debuff.
Fixed an issue where casting Aimed Shot twice in a row while talented into Aspect of the Hydra incorrectly prevented the second cast of Aimed Shot from being able to cause a Deathbringer proc from the Deathblow talent.
Fixed an issue where secondary Aimed Shots from the Aspect of the Hydra talent would incorrectly consume the Deathbringer buff from the Deathblow talent.
Fixed an issue where Explosive Shot was incorrectly damaging the primary target of Explosive Shot with the explosion damage.
Hero Talents

Dark Ranger

Fixed an issue where Through The Eyes was not properly increasing Withering Fire’s damage.

Survival

Fixed an issue where Raptor Swipe could cause Sentinel’s Mark to be applied to a target that was not your currently selected target. If you do not have a target selected when using Raptor Swipe, a target hit by Raptor Swipe will be chosen.
Fixed an issue where Outland Venom was not properly applied by various periodic effects from either the Hunter, their current pet, or other summons from the Pack Leader Hero Talents.
Fixed an issue where Mastery: Spirit Bond incorrectly affected some summons from the Pack Leader Hero Talents twice.

MONK

Brewmaster

Fixed an issue where Flurry Strikes’ Physical damage was not being correctly increased by Bring Me Another or the Venomous Abyss 4-set bonus.

Mistweaver

Developers’ notes: Morning Breeze’s value is being adjusted down in accordance with the Mastery: Gust of Mist increases in Curse of Ula’tek. This should leave the talent’s effectiveness at a similar overall level.
Morning Breeze effectiveness reduced by 60%.

PALADIN

Holy

Developers’ notes: We are happy with the rotational impact of the Venomous Abyss class set for Holy Paladin, but it has also caused the specialization to be more mana efficient than intended. We are adding an effect that increases the mana cost of Holy Light to the set bonus and also increasing Holy Paladin’s overall output alongside this adjustment to compensate for this change. We will keep a watchful eye on where gameplay lands from here and make further adjustments if necessary. Thank you for your ongoing feedback!
The Venomous Abyss 4-set bonus – Now additionally increases Holy Light’s mana cost by 60%.
All healing increased by 5%.

PRIEST

Discipline

Apex Talent: Master the Darkness – Void Shield absorption increased by 3%.

PLAYER VERSUS PLAYER

Developers’ notes: We would like to speed up gearing for players who are participating late in the PvP season, so we are increasing Conquest gains from Spoils of War. This will activate partway through the season, once Conquest has become uncapped.
Spoils of War now grants 50% increased Conquest gain (was 30%).

Comment by BestCollectorRelease date whereComment by ClownWorldA tier set with a negative effect.

That's actually interesting,if only they would expand on that could even you give you multiple possible bonii maybe a weaker purely positive one and an even stronger effect with a downside and you could choose between the 2.

But that would require them to actually put effort into those things.Comment by kevincuomoThe Venomous Abyss 4-set bonus – Now additionally increases Holy Light’s mana cost by 60%.

What is going on with Hpal...Comment by ClonosaurusSo no tier set change for holy pal, just doubling down.Comment by MarkElfW blizzard fixesComment by TastelikelemonLmao , just delete resto druid at this point , after so many nerfs , skill removals and talent deletions the class is complete unlogical mess that have nearly 90% negative feedback from PTR. Its interesting how Blizz devs can decimate a class that was played by so many people and its about to get pushed in to oblivion , forcing so many "forever resto druid main" players to swap classes of how bad it is and twisting the hands of the remaining normal players to seek other classes due to how bad it is and the fact that guild masters and raid leaders dont wanna take resto druids in to raids anymore as the healing patterns and what the class does are something thats not for this game. People , reroll while its time - Pres/Disc/MW if u wanna be relevant next patch !Comment by opressedwarriorholy %^&* fury will be a dead spec.Comment by KestevavildDevelopers’ notes: We are happy with the rotational impact of the Venomous Abyss class set for Holy Paladin,"this is intended, we toootally wanted to do this!"This game only fares because of the decades we spent in it, if this would be a new MMO today, it would crash into the ground in 1 month.Comment by thirty8overheadDevelopers’ notes: We are happy with the rotational impact of the Venomous Abyss class set for Holy Paladin,"this is intended, we toootally wanted to do this!"This game only fares because of the decades we spent in it, if this would be a new MMO today, it would crash into the ground in 1 month.Comment by GazAblettSrLmao , just delete resto druid at this point , after so many nerfs , skill removals and talent deletions the class is complete unlogical mess that have nearly 90% negative feedback from PTR.

What tf is this?

Meanwhile the broken healer that dominated S1 (MW) and looks the best again, doesnt need any nerfs?
You dont need to guess what specs shareholders play, because Arcane (with its slap on the wrist nerf thiss week) and untouched MW are right there.Comment by nyxzxzxzxholy %^&* fury will be a dead spec.Comment by nyxzxzxzxSo they made a tierset that allows a special build for HPal, told us yeah thats totally intended, then saying 4piece and the gameplay it brings is gonna be a downgrade if you wear it?

Sometimes Zenith fails to trigger Zenith Stomp unlock.

So far Blizzard ignores all bug reports here.
