Lead Systems Designer Greg «Ghostcrawler» Street has posted his latest [hide]Dev Watercooler[/hide], this one explaining the reasoning behind various changes in Patch 4.3. If (like me) you play melee DPS, you may be excited, unless (like me) you play a fury warrior, in which case you’ll see those often-repeated words that make your gut clench up yet again. The [hide]patch 4.3 PTR notes[/hide] are up, and here we have a discussion of trends you might be noticing.
The changes made are being done to balance out melee and ranged DPS going forward, to get enhancement shaman to stop using caster weapons and mail (the huge changes to Mental Quickness, for instance) and to use Lava Lash to spread the Flame Shock debuff around in order to simplify enhancement’s AOE. Resto shaman also get a bit of a buff, which should be nice for them, while DKs see some quality of life simplifcation.
Overall, the post is worthwhile reading (and the first of more posts to come) to get an idea of where Blizzard is going with design in 4.3.[hide]Continue reading Dev Watercooler: Ghostcrawler on balance in patch 4.3[/hide]Filed under: [hide]Druid[/hide], [hide]Paladin[/hide], [hide]Priest[/hide], [hide]Shaman[/hide], [hide]Death Knight[/hide][hide]Dev Watercooler: Ghostcrawler on balance in patch 4.3[/hide] originally appeared on [hide]WoW Insider[/hide] on Tue, 27 Sep 2011 20:00:00 EST.
