Damage and Healer specializations now gain +20% damage and healing from all artifact traits.
Call of the Legion

Infernal Flayer’s melee damage reduced.
Infernal Flayer’s Infernal Leap damage increased.
Infernal Soulsteal’s damage increased.

Naran’s Everdisc

Catching the disc now increases damage of subsequent throws by 50% per catch (was 30%).

Light’s Vengeance

Increased damage by 50%.
Increased healing by 20%.

Vindicator’s Judgment

Increased damage by 50%.
Increased healing by 20%.

Highmountain Fortitude:

The percentage of damage converted into Fortitude has been increased to 10% at rank 1 (was 5%) and 15% at rank 3 (was 11%), with each additional rank at or above Rank 4 providing an additional 3%.

Comment by Hellboy999It's almost like they don't understand that survivability is the problem for non-tanks lolComment by ssithlDead dps do no damage..

And I feel that's probably equal or more of a reason for 5-tank than damage..Comment by RibbaPointless buffs

dead dps do no damageComment by GrissuFix one shots for non tanks, and reduce dmg for tanks instead of buffing what they buffed... No wonder why we can't have really great balance on retail. They don't play the game like we do.Comment by CorpselanceI think the change is intended to make tanks go, "Wow, DPS do much higher damage than me, I'll invite one to my group to speed up progress, rather than solo." ...But I doubt this will actually ever happen.Comment by unknowny33Lol its funny the comments realize it more than Wowhead/Blizz.
99% of the reason ppl played tanks is the dmg you take at 30+ is absurb, you get hit for 15m+ with 200% versa.
Im also farily certain the artifact traits did the exact same dmg for tanks, just the gap between dps and tank in terms of dmg was lower than on retail due to it.Comment by Fignewtunthey are %^&*ing so obliviousComment by KapayaDps is not the problem for dmg is staying alive.Comment by FriedPickledwell hey, when that blood dk comes into your +25s and says "sorry in advance", all of these changes won't impact that experience cause we'll still be dead! that's exciting!Comment by KodokuTenshiBlizzard doesnt even understand why people play tank, hint: it's not about damage OUTPUTComment by terrifying1376Fix one shots for non tanks, and reduce dmg for tanks instead of buffing what they buffed...

We are far gone now from being able to fix anything by decreasing tank damage, or making timers tighter to not let them time the keys without dpsers, etc.

And from all things that could be done to try to fix, increasing dpsers damage is like... lol. Unless you're buffing it to the point where they insta killing this change is useless. As soon as any unavoidable damage goes out, they're all dead.

+30/+40 keys were sold by now, most players already leveled a tank class, etc. the only real solution would be to make the artifact buff survivability of every DPS/Healer spec to the same level they buff the dmg of tanking specs. So you can take whoever you want to your key. 5 dps, 4 dps and 1 heal, 3 tanks 2 heals, 2 tanks 3 dps, 5 tanks, whatever.Comment by kalykatTank buffs when?Comment by kanegasiTo the comments complaining, Blizzard said 20% increase to ALL traits. The versatility power is a trait, so DPS and healers now get 20% MORE versatility than tanks.Comment by KyrSharaEverybody's dead, DaveComment by RellyneIt's almost like they don't understand that survivability is the problem for non-tanks lolComment by OxyotlRemix gave Tanks enough damage to pair with the insane survivability and time the keys +3 with more than enough time.
