Dragonflight: Guardians of the Dream Update Development Notes
- PALADIN
Retribution
Amirdrassil, the Dream’s Hope Set Bonus – Divine Toll is now guaranteed to target at least one valid enemy with Expurgation. - Fixed a few targeting issues that caused Wrathful Sanction to trigger multiple times on one Judgment cast.
- Fixed an issue causing unintentional Divine Purpose and Empyrean Power proc consumption.
- Developers’ note: Due to previous bugs with targeting issues on Wrathful Sanction, the ability was a bit undertuned. Following these bug fixes, we’re retuning the set bonus to better hit our tuning targets for the set bonus. Additionally, with the amount of uptime that the 4-set bonus provides, it was overperfoming in tandem with a few of the Retribution talents located deeper in the tree. We appreciate everyone’s feedback and playtesting and we’ll keep making adjustments to this sets power as necessary over the course of PTR.
- Amirdrassil, the Dream’s Hope (2) Set Bonus – Expurgation now deals 30% increased damage (was 50%). Wrathful Sanction now deals 50% of the main Holy damage to up to 4 nearby enemies (was 20%).
- Amirdrassil, the Dream’s Hope (4) Set Bonus – Echoes of Wrath now causes your next Templar’s Verdict and Divine Storm to deal damage a second
