4.2 Thread, go nuts, just keep it in here.
Patch 4.2 coming soon
I especially like the new CC changes.....
I cant remember the last time I saw a patch that DIDNT nerf Paladins in one form or another.
To the ground!
Ya every patch since cata has gones after holy paladin regen / tuning them down. In one way or another.
I will admit the sprint being added to bubble is awesome for dodging mass dispells.
agreed
2x healing for critting instead of 150%.... oh yay harder to kill targets ftl
ya double healer teams will be more of a pain... Stack more gear !
F that... i'm just going to have my rogue buddy play with me and smoke bomb them =P (not really sure if serious)Quote:

They mentioned it won't save yet.
But I'd bet we will be able to both reorganize our toons and save the new order, soon...
Well i expect they will save on release lol, otherwise there isn't much point to move them without saving them ;)Quote:

Yeah, it looks like that was the first iteration. Lots of good and interesting stuff in 4.2, and that is near the top of the list for me.Quote:

I guess it's like a step up from defensive mode, where the pet would normally switch to another target when its present target died, if that target was attacking you or the pet. Could be very useful in both PVE and PVP (I can see where it would be very useful in large PVP battles, where your pet often winds up chasing enemies seemingly at random, so that you wind up putting it on passive).Quote:
The Aggressive pet stance has been removed and replaced with the Assist stance. This stance will cause the player's pet to attack the player's target. The pet will not change targets unless the master attacks a new target for a few seconds.
Considering itQuote:

If my math isnt wrong its about 1,5% less damage for HB @ my 9400 attack power.
wow, what a nerf ;)
No its 8% no matter your attack power just like the patch notes mentioned, your looking at it from AP point of view instead of the base dmg which is what was nerfed. Dks are looking at a 9%+ nerf from NS. Both noticeable nerfs, NS nerf hurts unholy more imo though.Quote:

They finally changed that back those bastards
What was it, a 20% boost last patch.
And an 8% reduction, next patch.
That should still be an overall gain (10.4%), compared to the start of the season.
And it was strong enough to begin with.
My Annihilation is already showing 15/30/45%, not 12/24/36%.
That's because they posted a nerf for 4.2 PTR, and then reverted the change.Quote:

- Howling Blast has been reduced by approxomately 8-9%.
- Necrotic Strike's AP coefficient has been reduced from 0.75 to 0.7.
- Obliterate has been reduced from 160% to 150% base weapon damage.

- Healing Surge has been reduced in power by 20%.

- Drain Life now deals 25% less damage.
They didnt even wait for 4.2 , lol :rolleyes:
fuck that, damnit.
Howling Blast is still 10.4% better than it was in 4.0.6.
(1.00 strength > 20% boost in 4.1 = 1.20 > 8% reduction to .92 of 1.20 = 1.104)
And it felt fairly strong then.
I don't like nerfs to Necrotic Strike (0.70 / 0.75 = 0.933; almost a 7% reduction) or Obliterate (1.50 / 1.60 = .9375; a tad over a 6% reduction).
But with the changes to how Blood Runes are permanently Death Runes...
6 and 7% reductions to two abilities, and 10% boost to another...
We're still substantially stronger now, than we were pre 4.1
It was reverted and only the 10% damage reduction that was hotfixed into the game made it live.Quote:

I tend to automatically (so far) beat any team with a single healer, and win roughly half my games against double-healer teams.
So far, that equates to a win 2 out of every 3 matches record.
I didn't really notice the hotfix much...
Single healer teams vrs a 4 DK team are almost always instant wins it's too much fun.
I'm jelly, you stfu!Quote:

If a mage drops ROF I try to get in the middle and i turn off CTM and grip people in, or I pressure the mage before they get the chance to drop ROF. ROF is redonkulous.Quote:

It can be interrupted but it is castable while moving and effected by haste.
RE: Hungering Cold now has 1.5 sec cast time, up from instant.
checked this out on the ptr u can use this spell when moveing. the cast time goes off haste as well.
Anyone running 8 hunters? I wonder what they mean by "unique taming challenge"? They haven't post any changes to taming.Quote:
8 new rare tamable beasts have been added, each of which provides a unique taming challenge. Will you be the first hunter to tame Deth'tilac, the rarest and most powerful of them all? Players will need to progress through the Hyjal Regrowth and Molten Front daily questing areas in order to unlock access to the full gamut of taming challenges.
