Comment by piraka810 And my greenskin's cuffs are now @#$%ing worthless. Thanks Blizz. Comment by IceWolfDK Gorgeous, havoc buffs at long last! Comment by SacredBlaze Item - Hunter T19 Survival 4P Bonus When Mongoose Fury reaches 6 applications, you gain 50%20% increased damage to all abilities for 610 sec.\r

Now that is a massive nerf. Comment by Raybeze i just want mind sear, lol.... Comment by Zanada I don't understand why balance is only getting a 4% buff to dps, especially compared to how much other classes are getting. They said balance needed some number changes during Bcon but 4% is barley anything. Perhaps there is still a massive double digit buff coming? Comment by jenrai TBH I think 20% is fair for the 4P survival bonus...but there are STILL not the changes the spec needs to be competitive. Nesingwary's Treads proc would be garbage even if it was 100 focus on trap trigger. The changes to the trap placement means it's going to be awkward to have explosive in the dps rotation still and focus was never really a problem. Comment by greenegg wow! that demonic circle buff totally makes up for gutting destro this patch! feels good to be a warlock! \/sarcasm off\r
I know warlocks complaining is getting old, but for real all they've done to warlocks this xpac is nerf them, they were ok in pvp at one point but then they nerfed that too. Comment by MadAltoholic Has anyone else noticed the images for classes in this post are all Alliance (except for warrior)? Kinda makes me wonder if Blizz is suggesting we all should be playing Alliance toons....

The Wowhead staff came up with the images, taken from Blizzard's class overview pages, to make these datamining posts look nicer to read. Not Blizzard related :) Comment by Thorinori Also DH is a Blood Elf Comment by b1sojf91 And Blizz just continues to punish hunters... Comment by sadakito Demonic Circle buff for locks.... srsly ? are you f**king kidding me? Comment by JohnnyFiction Here's to hoping Outlaw gets some of those aura buffs too... someday.

The extra duration gives it more value to DoT spread, I could list at least three ways I could abuse the crap out of the 50% buff and spike like mad during fights.

It''s actually a buff, just not immediately apparent.

Hypothetical:

OLD: 100dps + 50% buff \/ 6sec = 900dmg total
NEW: 100dps + 20% buff \/ 10sec = 1200dmg total (33.33% increase)

The additional 4 seconds also means you can use 2-3 additional abilities with the damage buff. Not a bad change.

But thats 900 damage in 6 seconds, if it was both for the same duration it would be 1300 so it could be a slight nerf, but as you said we can use 2-3 additional abilities with the buff. Comment by Engerz Loving how nice and clean this looks. Nice job, Wowhead! Comment by veselo why to nerf affli set bonuses, 1.15 agony chance increase doesnt look like a buff at all.....its better just to take non set good stat gear....also 10% UA isnt a big deal 20% seemed OK Comment by SacredBlaze Item - Hunter T19 Survival 4P Bonus When Mongoose Fury reaches 6 applications, you gain 50%20% increased damage to all abilities for 610 sec.

For all of you saying this is "actually a buff" according to my calculation is not, it's a nerf. Feel free to correct me:

1. Let's suppose you deal 100 damage each second for 10 seconds without the tier:

100damage * 10 seconds = 1000 damage in 10 seconds \/\/ 10 DPS

2. Old buff +50% in 6 seconds:

100damage * 6 seconds * 1.5 + 100 damage * 4 seconds = 900 damage in 6 seconds + 400 damage in 4 seconds = 1300 damage in 10 seconds \/\/ 13 DPS

3. New buff +20% in 10 seconds:

100damage * 10 seconds * 1.2 = 1200 damage in 10 seconds \/\/ 12 DPS

- - - - -
As you can see, it's obviously a damage and utility nerf since now you need the whole 10 seconds to take full profit of your bonus rather than just 6 seconds.

Now you might say, but hey, it's not a big deal going from 13 DPS to 12 DPS, and to that I say: Well taking into account that the NON-bonus damage is 10 DPS, going from 13 to 12 is actually really significant overrall. Comment by Illkarr I think Blizzard had to forget that the druid feral existed and need some adjustements to stay middle competitive Dps ...\r
Warlocks, Fire Mages and Shadow Priests do not need changes, being already largely in top Dps (Pve HL)\r

This is PTR, wait and see
