Yeah, it's just more pathetic excuses for no changes to rogues. The new combo point system is totally idiot and mistake proof, so I don't know what can we not grasp about it. Good thing our dps isn't that bad and we can compete with others in raid envioronment.

That's not buff to ascendance it's to all healing and more than small buff like Blizz said. Resto shaman wasn't really behind that much at all

Decent spec, will become great with 4t17, but still not the greatest single target (so kind of a nono if you are struggling with Butcher hc). Might try it next week.

These buffs seem WAY TOO MUCH to me. Unless literally everyone was not performing to the dps required in there blue gear i dont know.
Will love to see the new sims now or have a look at some of the better players i use for benchmarks. Fury buff for one looks extreme man, bloodthirst at 40% to enrage you will be crazy. 10% increase in execute is going to make sudden death pretty op as well. Then the two filler spells got hit for 30% buffs too wow.

Mage buffs look pretty strong too, 25% buff to our weak frostbolt which is supposed to be weak without spell power ? These buffs seem like they will be needed to be nerfed again soon.
Oh well, we shall see.

25% sounds a lot, but its one spell. I fired up literally the first logs I could find from Highmaul and on the three logs i checked frostbolt was 8, 9 and 11% or the DPS. 25% buff to a spell that does in the 10% area of your DPS (~2.5% damage increase) is nothing amazing.

Yeah i guess hmmm. I just thought if frost bolt is hitting 8k it now hits for 10k. That is only our filler spell anyway, with procs you rarely use frostbolt minus opener and when your forcing FoF with water jet hmmm.

I'll guess i'll see some logs from mythic later :D

Huh I already thought my Ele does a lot of dmg. Thanks for the buffs I guess.

On the other hand I feel my Mistweaver still needs some love. Especially in PvP he is a joke, except I am doing something very wrong.

The main question i would have about frost mage buffing is just how they do it, because if we already open fights and i'm maxing at 28k DPS in the first 15 seconds while frost mages of equal gear are hitting 50 - if they buff it so they're doing 55-60, that would just be way too extreme. If they control that bursty damage but bring up their fight averages, it wouldn't be the end of the world. I kinda feel like the complete lack of burst damage is Unholy underperforming in that regard as well - i'm still learning the spec, but it feels like a few cooldowns add significant damage (troll haste paired with gargoyle) but higher DPS at the start of fights is mostly around "hey i have 100% uptime and it's gonna be a while before i'm autoattacking the boss with no runes or runic power" which drags down the DPS. I used to play frost DK in WOTLK and i played fire mage in very late WOTLK through early cata, and the huge, start of fight FIRE EVERYTHING nuke to death with insane crit streaks, huge damage amplifications and ripping aggro off tanks (and laughing at them in TS, of course!) just isn't happening for me right now. The singletarget damage is just kinda consistently "ok" but rising significantly in the latter half of the fight (butcher it would drop towards 16k, then rise back to 19, maaaybe 20k as he hit the 45% or less execute phase and bloodlust was used)

Fuck I love playing a demo lock, under perform compared to pretty much every spec and no notes at all.

Frostbolt has little to do with a Frost Mage's burst. That comes from spamming IL, FFB and IN or triggering Frost Bomb on Prysmatic Crystal. If you are casting lots of frostbolts during an opener you are terrible. I have no idea why you are so obsessed over the first 30 seconds of fights that last for minutes.

Yea i know that~ Before they specified the buffs i was a little concerned.

Just because it feels like probably the biggest flaw of the spec that i'm forced to play right now. I talked to three guilds and all of them said 2h frost is too much worse than unholy for you to take it unless you're literally carrying the guild and way better than everyone else. Kinda a kick in the teeth because i was excited to play my wonderful fire mage and frost DK again~ these patch changes help a LOT with that

2h frost will be on par, maybe even better than unholy single target. The main problems are:

1; The best stat for unholy, mastery, is kinda bad for 2h frost which does mostly physical and not frost damage. That means in unholy gear, i don't think i can actually switch spec and gain damage for something like Butcher. Mastery is better for dual wield frost, but i can't take weapons from others who need them in order to run that - i just got a 645 1h from garrison, so i might still play with it.

2; Unholy pulls ahead by a LOT, talking like 25 maybe even 40 percent when hitting 3 targets consistently, but more when dealing with mass AOE. Dual wield frost hangs closer, but 2h frost is crippled and that's the main problem with using it - Unholy, especially mastery stacking, is crazy good against 3+ targets

http://www.noxxic.com/wow/dps-rankings#666,real,3

that link can maybe explain why guild leaders see "2h frost" and "aoe" in the same sentence and freak out a lot and want you to play unholy

If they just nerfed unholy AOE or rebalanced defile etc i wouldn't even be mad

Come on Noxxic is awful, wait until the next release for simcraft

And it's not like DK's are the only class with widely different stat priorities for different specs, pretty much any class that has multiple dps specs works like that

Well, i know like 5 people who say Noxxic is awful, 5 who say simcraft is awful, 5 who say mr. robot is awful etc

I'm aware, but with mage fire vs arcane etc at mid to end of WOTLK played quite differently, so did fire and frost in early cata. Right now unholy is kinda like a better version of frost with no weakness, gotta see if new 2h numbers are good
