Mage Tuning Incoming - July 18
-
Mage AoE damage is generally trending a little higher than we’re comfortable with after the most recent update. We’re planning to make a few targeted adjustments to Mage AoE spells to bring them down to a more reasonable level. In addition to the AoE adjustments, Fire will be seeing some additional tuning, as Fire single-target damage is also trending higher than intended.
Mage
Fire
- Damage of all abilities reduced by 5%.
- Flamestrike damage reduced by 6%, and Flamestrike now deals reduced damage beyond 8 targets.
- Flame Patch damage reduced by 6%, and Flame Patch now deals reduced damage beyond 8 targets.
- Sun King’s Blessing now causes your next Pyroblast or Flamestrike to deal 260% increased damage (was 275%).
Frost
- Frozen Orb damage reduced by 5%.
- Blizzard damage reduced by 4%.
- Comet Storm damage reduced by 5%.
- Subzero damage to rooted and frozen targets reduced to 5/10%.
Arcane
- Arcane Barrage damage increased by 3%.
- Resonance increases the damage per target hit by Arcane Barrage by 10% (was 12%).
- Arcane Explosion damage reduced by 6%.
- Arcane Orb damage reduced by 8%.
We intend to make the above changes with scheduled weekly maintenance, on Tuesday, July 18 in this region.
