Upcoming Class Tuning: November 23rd

(Source)

We’re preparing a tuning pass that focuses on high target count situations, based on data gathered from the Dragonflight Beta.

We’re adding reduced-damage-beyond-5/8-targets to a number of AOE spells, reducing the damage of a few spells, and increasing the damage of others with the intent of improving balance across specs in this damage profile.

We’ll be hotfixing these changes into the Beta very soon, and we’ll then apply them to the live game with scheduled weekly maintenance, which is Tuesday, November 22 in this region.
