Dragonflight Patch 10.1 PTR Development Notes for April 18th - Class Changes and Tier Set Tuning
Blizzard has posted Dragonflight Patch 10.1 PTR development notes for today which includes more Class Changes and Tier Set tuning.
Hello everyone! Here are this week’s updates to the Embers of Neltharion PTR:CLASSESDevelopers’ note:We’ve decided to increase both player stamina and enemy damage by 25% in Embers of Neltharion. This is very much like an adjustment that was made just before the launch of Dragonflight, and it’s for the same reasons.When damage mitigation abilities and healing are too strong relative to player health, the only way to threaten players is to make enemy damage very high and spiky.If healers can very quickly top off their teammates and mana isn’t a limiting factor, enemies have to be tuned to have the capacity to do burst damage that kills players before healers can react. That isn’t very satisfying gameplay. Increasing player health gives players more time to react to incoming damage, and it makes players’ choices about cooldowns and mana management more meaningful.Along with this change, you’ll see several adjustments to hybrid healing spells, items, and enchantments, as well as percentage-based healing spells.
Player stamina increased by 25%, and enemy spell and melee damage increased by 25%, and self-healing and absorb shield spells for damage dealers and tanks have been increased by a commensurate amount, so that they retain their impact when solo or when supporting a group. DEATH KNIGHT Blood Draw healing increased by 25%. Blood Blood Plague healing increased by 25%.
Relish in Blood healing increased by 25%. Leech from Voracious increased to 12% (was 10%). FrostAberrus, the Shadowed Crucible: 2-Set Bonus has been adjusted – Frostwyrm’s Fury cast by Pillar of Frost now deals 30% of normal.
