will tazik be nerfed in 4.3???

[ffffrf]

any speculations, hopefully it doesnt get nerfed to 75+ or something like that.

The bracket would be a much better place without it. Not to mention the great chuckle I would have for the people who leveled engineering 10 times to get it

 

[ffffrf]

its not that hard to get nor that OP, its a fun device along with synapse springs



dontttt nerfff ittt

 

[threesets]

not hard to get? werent you the one asking for ppl to fund your engineering to 450?

I've posted this several times, guess it's worth doing again.



There has been no signs that tazik could be nerfed, removed, or otherwise.



As it stands on the PTR, it is still usable, with 450 Engineering.



Has the same range, Damage, off the GCD, everything.



Only thing worth noting is the Animation, as it shares an animation with Lightning bolt, it has been updated to the newer animation, which does look rather pretty.



And as i see it, they would never nerf it, the game is balanced around 85 (Kek, balance) and as the tinker is already almost useless at 85, it'd be more likely that they buff it, instead of nerfing it. (2-5k Zap on a person with 140k isn't going to do much), Or they could just slap a 500 Engineering requirement on it, then the tinker would be completely useless. Seeing as everybody @ 85 already uses springs instead.



Same goes for RBG titles and Arena master. Blizzard hasn't posted saying it would be removed (To my knowledge), only thing even remotely related being the MMR wipe.

good proof/logic, thank you for the info

 

[pingaslol]

it does more dmg the higher lvl you get for instance it does 6100-7200 on my 81

 

[xavizi]

If u QQ about tazik ur bad. simple. Either get it or stop moaning

What class/spec? As it does benefit from talents, mastery, etc.

What they should do is make it so you cannot use any cata tinkers until level 75 but you can still proc them.

That, or a 475/500 Level requirement to use them, is how i figured they would be nerfed, if they ever will be, and i'm not saying they will be.

I don't find it that OP outside of arena myself. Only have it on one of my 6 70's.



So don't really care one way or another. I DO like that its a piece of gear that you hafta actually work/pay for which is something I think this bracket needs more of.

 

[ffffrf]

well patch 4.3 is what? tuesday? (for U.S) i guess we'll find out then

 

[Wafflecakes]

Pretty sure its not Tue. Rarely does season end on same day as patch. Will probably hit the week after.....at least thats what I am hearing.

 

[ffffrf]

oh, well points still stands, the patch is soon and we'll find out.

Check the front page of Mmo-champion.



And yeah, it is kind of nice to have a piece of (Tazik isn't really gear, but anywho.) gear that actually had some time put into it.

 

[Wafflecakes]

They have been wrong before.



And yes I see it. So maybe its true. However.....its unusual.

 

[Dorigon]

I could have sworn that there was a blue post in which they said tinkers are going to get nerfed and scale by level? Or was it that they will start at current strength and scale up? Or maybe I am imagining the whole thing.

 

[zzarq]

I was on PTR like a week ago tazik did the same damage as live no eng req or anything..

 

[Zayiah]

No signs of a nerf yet.​

But I remember contacting a GM about it, and he told me that Blizzard don't care much for lower level PVP. As they want to move foward not backwards. So it doesn't look too promising.​
