Blizzard
Hello!Thank you for all of your continued feedback on
Magier changes in Shadowlands. Below, you'll find the latest changes in the Alpha, which includes reverting
Flimmern to 2 charges, further talent tuning, and the removal of the short lived Frost and
Feuerzauberschutz.There has a been a lot of great discussion in this thread and we hope to see it continue!
Magier- Flimmern charge count increased to 2.
- Flimmern cooldown Increased to 25 seconds (was 20 seconds).
Developers' notes: After listening to feedback and more playtesting, we are returning both charges of Flimmern at a slightly higher cooldown cost. Our goal with the change was to bring more it inline with the other talents on the row, but in doing so, Flimmern lost a lot of its identity. If the other talents on the tier continue to underperform, we'll look at ways we can enhance them to be more attractive options while up against Flimmern.
Magie fokussieren now also grants the caster 1% Intellect, stacking up to 8 times when their
Magie fokussieren target critically strikes.
- Developers' notes: We'd like for Focus Magic to reward the caster a bit more for taking an ally friendly talent.
Frostzauberschutz and
Feuerzauberschutz removed from all specs.
- Developers' notes: Compared to some of the other abilities, these two landed a little flat and overlapped a bit too much with each of the Barriers.
Fire Specialization Alexstraszas Zorn now also makes your next
Pyroschlag or
Flammenstoß deal 35% increased damage.
