Base Resilience Being Increased to 65%! (Patch 5.3)

[Mesikämmen]

Don't know if this was already posted, stole it from the f2p section:

PvP Gear in Patch 5.3 - World of Warcraft

Pasted the highlights for 19s here:

Incoming 5.3 Gear Changes:

Base Resilience will be set to 65% for all characters level 85 and higher


(Resilience will be removed from nearly all PvP gear) <---- Probably won't matter for 19s, since I don't suppose they will change PvP BoAs, but slapped it out here anyways.

(Healers and hybrid-casters will benefit to a greater degree from PvP Power, and Battle Fatigue will increase to make PvP gear superior for healers.) <---- Again, probably won't affect players under level 85

So, nothing to worry about.

So Base resil is only 85+ so 19lvl will have 0% resil or.. 0:?

Probably going to stay as it has been since MoP prepatch; 40% baseline resilience for everyone, plus what you might get from heirlooms.

Im glad that this change is not impacting pvp below 85. This would be a huge nerf to all none healing classes. Boomkins having received a 10 percent damage buff in 5.2 would effectively have meant in 5.3 balance druids would be taking 15 percent less damage but still only dealing 5 percent less damage then 5.1.

That is one example of why this change would have been bad for level 19 bg's.
