WoW 4.0.6 PTR - LOTS of changes

[remanz]

huh, you know what.

I am not gonna argue with you guys that shaman is fine~. They are not fine. I merely pointed out a dummy dps case where shaman was in the middle. But then again, a lot of the classes/specs are not fine. Not everybody is DK/Warlock/Rogue/Hunter.

The game would never be balanced. and you just have to adapt and focus/enjoy the content.

So my son just pointed this line out to me on Wowhead tonight...

Seal of Truth: All single target attacks (including Judgement, Hammer of Wrath, Exorcism, and Templar's Verdict) can now trigger this seal.

I immediately transfered one of my new Paladins over to PTR and went to a target dummy. Sure enough, it's exactly as advertised. If you are running Seal of Truth then Judgement, Exorcism, and even Holy Shock (used offensively, of course) will stack Censure on the target and proc the bonus percentage of weapon damage. The tooltip on the Seal of Truth buff even clearly states that all single-target attacks now trigger it.

I can't wait to start throwing this on anything and everything in pvp.

So it procs seal damage too ?? i.e. I can just exorcism you from afar. That would stack the dot as well as proc the seal damage ?

If that's the case, ret dps is back~. I've already seen people reporting 10% dps increase on PTR vs live.

Stacks the dot. Procs the seal damage. GG.

To resume the discussion of DPS post 4.0.6


http://www.simulationcraft.org/Raid_T11_372_406.html

this site has a breakdown on rankings in raid DPS. All are in 372 heroic gear.

1. MM Hunter 30899
2. Unholy DK with 2h 30198
3. Shadow Priest 30024
4. Balance Druid 28352
5. Retribution Paladin 27935
6. Fury Warrior with 1h 27173
7. MM Hunter arcane shot 27168
8. Fury Warrior with 2h 27083
9. Warlock Destruction 27080
10. Unholy DK 1h 26883
.....

Shaman doesn't look like a winner here. Keep in mind this is with the best gear scaling on theortical max dps. Some classes scale better with gear.

Dont know if im going crazy, but I am thinking that the Justice Points needed to buy the weapons increased.... I thought it was 2 weeks for the 1h and 3 weeks for the 2h. It looks like they added a week for each slot.

Am i seeing this right?

[remanz]

conquest pts you mean. Yeah it is changed. added additional cost. so 1 more week.

[cmeche]

Oh yea, conquest. I checked the patch notes but havent read anything much less an explanation of the increase.
kinda pisses me off, I was allready late getting my team to 85 and now that i finally get my second week of points(enough for my pally at least)...they raise the price. Just puts me a little further behind again.
90% of the teams i am playing have weapons allready....

[Whitz]

Its a display bug, prices are the same as they were before patch.

[cmeche]

TY....I am able to buy at the lower price.
