MMO-Champion BlueTracker - Patch 3.3 and warlock dps

2009-10-13 22:01:54

How will warlocks be compensated for icecrown. It's already impossible to compete in dps with an arcane mage. Yet mage and lock dps is suppose to be on par and depend on skill.

The patch changes Conflagrate now deals damage equal to 60% of your Immolate or Shadowflame and causes 20% additional damage over 6 sec.

I was told this was another 8% nerf to pve destro damage ontop of the 5% from last patch. This is getting ridiculous.

With the next patch please give warlocks something to ensure thier pve dps in 3.3, I really do not want to miss out on icecrown as mages missed out on sunwell. After all I and most people bought this expansion to down Arthas after all.

Re: Patch 3.3 and warlock dps

At least a dozen of the posts here are variants of "Don't nerf me bro."

What we're looking for in these forums right now is intelligent feedback that we can use. This isn't it.

There is nothing wrong with the topic, but you need to offer something more than just links to third-party websites or the equivalent of "Cousin Jimmy told me our dps was low." If you aren't a theorycrafter, that's fine, but I suggest then sitting back until the players that are into it have had a little bit of time to chew on all of the new numbers (for all the classes) in 3.3.
