Blizzard

Classes

Hunter

Beast Mastery

Beast Cleave now causes your pet to strike other targets for 90% of your pet's damage (was 75%).

Marksmanship

Aimed Shot damage increased by 5%, and Trick Shots now causes your Aimed Shot or Rapid Fire to ricochet for 55% of the damage (was 50%).

Monk

Windwalker

Spinning Crane Kick damage increased by 15% (was 10%) per unique target you've struck in the last 20 seconds (was 15 seconds) with Tiger Palm, Blackout Kick, or Rising Sun Kick.
Resolved an issue with Spinning Crane Kick that prevented the ability from gaining benefit from Mastery: Combo Strikes.
Fists of Fury now deals 70% damage to secondary targets (was 50%).

Warlock

Demonology

Spell and pet damage increased by 3%.

In the 9.0.5 update, bugfixes to both Windwalker and Marksmanship had the side effect of reducing overall damage. Because the damage loss was enough to cause some potential disruption to balance, we're compensating both specs now. In general, this patch was not intended to be a significant shakeup to current damage balance.

Comment by dlbert2000WELCOME TO THE META, DEMONOLOGYComment by novadudelocks got buffed again lol they strong af already!Comment by irmosLol all mm start to cry and u blizz give it back....once u nerf hunters then they cry and u buff again...for other classes u dontComment by TOMRUSHunter buffs! Small, but at least something...Comment by MarieUKyay for my BM Hunters :) :)Comment by SeganoThey finally buffed our Fists of Fury!Comment by DranightLol all mm start to cry and u give blizz give it backComment by Traczynhahaha "strong af" to much weed, they are ok, but im not sure if dmg buff is right I'd add some sort of more survi, maybe 10% stamina buff back from demon armor would be great
Btw for casters you got mage, ele, sp that perform better than warlocks/druidsComment by KucheshkiMurlocI was hyped for a moment....Comment by SarthoriusStill no SV buff for ST. And imagine if MM 'needed' those, just 'because they fixed AS+SST double dipping into their Night Fae class ability'. SMH.

About BM, their problem is the AoE cap, mostly, not Beast Cleave. Either make it hit up to 8, or 5, but less beyond that, like we see with some other specs.Comment by Mindbender94Grateful for the Mark of the Crane duration increase, that's the best kind of buff - functionality improvement, makes for a less problematic experience in the long run.Comment by PraeliaLol all mm start to cry and u give blizz give it backComment by SelliaIn general, this patch was not intended to be a significant shakeup to current damage balance.Comment by Fuegocitoso sub rogue is still ok in the gutter for over 3 years with almost no representation in raids.... but god forbid that warlocks off meta spec is doing less dps, or hunters got nerfed for a few weeks.Comment by CetlysmGod forbit the faceroll meta specs fall a little behind!
meanwhile survival, sub, arms and co. down in the dirt.Comment by EllinovAh yes, buff the two hunter specs that are doing fine and continue to ignore Survival for the millionth time. PLEASE look at survival's single target. We need SOMETHING! A 15% buff to mongoose bite/raptor strike and a matching 15% buff to kill command would probably put us middle of the board which is all we're really asking for, Bliz.Comment by Yetanotherone1YAAAAAAASSSSSSComment by Wokkytonlocks got buffed again lol they strong af already!Comment by TalihawkYay!Comment by Nhyonwell ¿Ret pala? ¿When? After seeing all the buffed classes, and the only decent legendary who gets him hotfixed 4 hours later?
