5.2 PTR / General Information

[Fat Tire]

Mages got nerfed with that deep freeze change lo

The Deep change is not on the offical patch notes, just the data mined ones.

Ugh does this mean we won't see this change go live?

It means nothing at this point really, it's pure speculation. It could be just a joke from a dev who knows the patch would be datamined before the patch notes would be released. It was released when the world was supposed to end after all ...

And it could also be intended: 'lets add something crazy to the client thats gonna be datamined and then dont mention it in the patch notes so they will cry less about all the other nerfs'.

Weird, a blue posted on the us realm forums a couple of days ago that it was now usable while silenced, a stealth hotfix. I'm not gonna argue since I never used it while being silenced as I was under the impression it was not working.

hm pretty sure its always been physical

anyway useable while silienced or not, cooldown is too long/duration too short

I don't see anything in those notes addressing the fact that elemental shaman hit like wet noodles even though they're hard casters. The only other pvp hard caster is a Shadow Priest, yet they hit like trucks. Mage and warlock specs allow instants that hit harder than elemental blast. The only way to be on par with damage is to get extremely lucky with RNG mastery procs. This while fire mages instant pyro for 120k.

the shaman stuff is actually good, 1 min on elemental mastery is really insane, for both enhance and elemental, since I can then go ascendance+em all the time, and also EM+trinket every minute; but it kinda sucks that 10% extra damage on lava burst have been added on unleash fury and not unleash elements :/

the shockwave "nerf" isnt really a good change for us because it'll still have 20 sec cooldown against boxers (except the warrior is really retarded and misses it)

after all that I'll still go with enhance, gonna be excited about the changes to our tier 45 talents as they have been mentioned before
