Of course they had to make sure Enhancement has no fun. WW toned down some.

Few snippets:
  • Enhancement
    • All damage dealt reduced by 25%.

  • Marksmanship
    • Reduced Damage of Aimed Shot by 15%.

Windwalker
  • Fists of Fury damage reduced by 20%.
  • Rising Sun Kick damage reduced by 20%.
  • Blackout Kick damage reduced by 10%.
  • Storm, Earth, and Fire damage transfer reduced by 6.66(repeating, of course)%.
  • Serenity causes the Monk to deal 15% increased damage (was 20%).
 
Imagine if shaman's restro spec dealt better dps than enh at lower levels, again.

.. from my parses so far with a non-gem-geared F2P shaman, enh will still pump out a better overall DPS than restro outside restro's 1 min CD burst if there's no more extra nerfs beyond this -25% number].

Mend Pet Heal from BM Hunt also doesn't heal player with the leech anymore, also sad to see.
Especially because the heal upgrade for Mend Pet in the Class tree did actually alot of heal on player.

Rog Ambush Dmg increased by 20% [emoji102]

Nerfs are good, damage is too much... problem for us is they'll eventually nerf the weak and buff the faceroll ones.

Good start tho, all those are pretty strong on the beta in my experience. But probably everything but warrior is. :Sadge:
 
At least they nerfed mm huntards

I play MM as my main and I’m also happy with the Aimed Shot nerf. I wish they would take away Double Tap and give us our cc’s back. It’s such a boring class now without Scatter Shot and Bursting Shot. We literally just Aimed Shot from stealth now and then pray we don’t get target swapped because we might be the most squishy class in the game rn. It truly defines glass cannon.

Well I also think MM Hunter runs quite fast out of focus rn, atleast on 20.

I agree, one of the funniest things for me was to kick enemies from bridges, towers etc. With Bursting shot and Explosive trap.

I think they are doing a good job right now nerfing the damage of some of the most broken classes. They just need to supplement these nerfs with some utility or defensives if the class in question is lacking.

If all the damage is reigned in then MM won’t need Camo anymore and can swap to Intimidation for utility. Survival and BM might be the only viable options though if things stay as they are now. MM feels like the Arena Spec but not gonna be fun in BG’s.
