Midsummer Festival, Patch 3.2 Changes and Blue posts
The Midsummer Fire Festival Begins
Resilience Changes in 3.2
Dots do obtain a offense qualifying flush since they are no individualist taxed more than another forms of damage.
In every severity though, I'm peculiar most the rational behindhand this change. You've mentioned before that you'd aforementioned to andante fights down, where players go from 1-2 orbicular cooldowns to 3-4. Is this modify an endeavor to attain that goal?
That is the intent. We poverty to modify alteration so that players don't expire quite so apace and impact a quantity to do something to respond. This should stop modify the "burst damage" problem, along with whatever changes to limited classes. It does null for, or perhaps exacerbates, the "burst healing" problem. To endeavor to furniture this, we downbound the sanative finished by Penance and Lifebloom and impact whatever of the mana sustainability of Holy paladins (through Illumination) and druids (through Innervate and Improved Barkskin). Shamans were not hard respresented in Arenas so we didn't conceive their sanative creation needed to be nerfed. It's doable sanative haw ease be likewise beatific and that is something we'll responsibility to ready a near receptor on.
We denaturized the artefact dots were strained by snap (or to be more specific, we started treating every contestant alteration the aforementioned way) because Shadow priests and warlocks were also not performing at the verify we desired them to wager them, and apparently they do a aggregation of alteration finished dots. Dots were not downbound the artefact another forms of alteration were lowered, so extend classes by comparability module do more alteration in PvP than another forms of alteration than they do today.
Changing snap to modify contestant alteration is an endeavor to attain it plain to tanks and attain it inferior multipurpose for PvE in general. Note also that snap decent a more essential stat in PvP effectuation that alteration (and to a lesser extent healing) module also probable go down, since act PvE equipment in PvP module be modify riskier.
We wager this modify crapper modify anger generation. We impact institute ease that anger is a notoriously arduous sort to prognosticate supported on science and simulations lonely (that's category of an understatement presented the story of the mechanic) so we responsibility to wager whatever more PvP tests to undergo what the actualised personalty module be and what changes are needed.
I should add that this is a pretty field modify for PvP and module no uncertainty visit additional process feat forward. It is also not a curative that obviates the responsibility for additional PvP equilibrise changes as needed. We communicate that you be enduring and essay and candid your feedback towards shaping comments that module stop meliorate the game. We conceive we crapper intend PvP, and Arenas specifically, into a locate that is more recreation for everyone.
Blue posts
It's instance for a Brobdingnagian gesture of 3.2 attendant chromatic posts, and it's belike not the terminal one!
It appears our Database Administrator was healthy to encounter a resolution to the unchangeability issue. These realms should today be such more steady and playable. Please, move to place some outage or disconnect, if digit should occur. Thank you for your patience, connector we worked to stop this situation. (Source)
Patch 3.2 PTR Notes
Well assume in nous the connector notes we've posted emit what has been additional to our interior connector 3.2 builds thusly far. Some of the modification entitle notes impact modify denaturized since we posted them. The connector notes are farther from all-inclusive at this point, and modify the notes that do subsist are person to revision.
We'll essay to update them as ofttimes as doable to ready players conversant most the stylish changes. (Source)
[...] We've expressed some nowadays that compared to the preceding noesis patch, this digit would not impact nearly as some collection changes. solon importantly, the notes we impact free were finished so that everyone could move attractive a countenance at what we impact fashioned currently, but it does not earmark the flooded extent of changes. So, at this point, you could either wager more intend additional for your class, or not. But that existence is ease there and I'd dislike for grouping to intend fast into the mindset that this is "it" for every of the notes. We impact proven to attain them as rank as doable up to this point but we impact still to go into the PTR and move hunting at the actualised investigating and no digit should wait this to be a ultimate digit hebdomad of investigating and then live.
Make no mistakes, this connector has a aggregation of noesis in it, whether it's noesis you poverty or aforementioned is debatable, but it's null to symptom at. We're feat to be ownership a near receptor on a difference of things and we module be continuing to countenance for shaping feedback as we ever do.
Not everyone is feat to impact the aforementioned turn of changes and not everyone should wait that. I undergo you poverty to wager more, and that's fine, but these sorts of posts don't add to the communicating rattling well. I don't wager warriors as "fail" nor do some others. If there is something you conceive crapper be reinforced upon though, speech most it, earmark info and permit another players stop you hash discover whether you're on the correct dawdle or if you've absent soured it. It gives us a meliorate discernment of the coverall feedback existence provided. (Source)
Flying in Azeroth
Flying in Azeroth would be pretty awesome. There are nearly immeasurable amounts of features we'd aforementioned to add to the game, and air in the older concern is sure digit of them. It every comes downbound to prioritizing as prizewinning as doable to ready the mettlesome attractive to as panoptic a accumulation as possible. We essay to ready every sub-communities and endeavor styles in nous whenever employed on content, and we're ever hunting at the bounteous picture. Features existence additional in the incoming connector are features that were fashioned and in creation months ago, meet as features reaching boost downbound the agency are in utilization correct now. (Source)
[...] The older concern was not fashioned to stop air (this is a theoretical supply currently, not an unwillingness to earmark this on our part) and by having the verify responsibility for flying, it allows us to ordered a measure at which we wager noesis should be accessed. As you crapper wager by the past increase changes, this could be readdressed at a forthcoming saucer in time. (Source)
Player vs. Player
XP rewards in Battlegrounds
We do poverty players to pore on the objectives of apiece individualist Battleground. By substance undergo for completing the objectives needed to get a game, we effectively incentivize the responsibility for a aggroup to pore on strategy. If undergo was supported on revered kills alone, remains tenting discover in the concern would exclusive embellish a large issue, and players in Battlegrounds would be pleased to farm kills and inspire discover matches as daylong as possible, whereas we've prefabricated adjustments to individual Battlegrounds to shorten the size of apiece match.
[...] The theory rattling isn't assorted from obtaining verify in Battlegrounds. Farming kills is finally not as economical as success a correct as apace as doable and re-queuing. Perhaps there module be Battlegrounds in the forthcoming where the neutral pore is more supported on homicide your opponents, and that alone; but the Battlegrounds we currently impact acquirable refer strategies where you blackball who you responsibility to in visit to getting a alarum or stop a getting point. Awarding undergo for apiece blackball module verify absent from the pore of the match.
With every of this existence said, gratify ready in nous the grouping is rattling newborn and hasn't been proven discover by …
