Once again, players are treated to a glimpse of the forthcoming class adjustments. While these notes could potentially represent the final patch details, history suggests there may be some fine-tuning before the release. As has been the trend, this round brings across-the-board buffs without any nerfs in sight.

Hunters

Hunters are the first to benefit from enhancements, with both Chimera Shot and Explosive Shot receiving significant buffs. This adjustment appears to be aimed at balancing the viability of Ranged Hunters with their Melee counterparts. In a related move, Carve also receives a modest boost to its weapon damage scaling, offering a potential improvement to its effectiveness in combat.

Mages

Mages, particularly those specializing in healing, are the next focus for improvements. Spells such as Regeneration, Mass Regeneration, and Chronostatic Preservation will now scale significantly higher with Spell Power, providing a notable increase in healing potential. Additionally, Chronostatic Preservation sees a considerable reduction in mana cost, making it more sustainable in extended battles. Frostfire Bolt and Spellfrost Bolt also receive substantial increases in both base damage and Spell Damage coefficients, potentially elevating their utility in various situations.

Paladins

Paladins wielding Seal of Martyrdom see another round of alterations, with damage buffs applied to both the on-swing component and the Judgement. Furthermore, Seal of Martyrdom now benefits from talents that enhance Seal of Righteousness, providing synergy between these abilities and potentially enhancing the overall damage output of Paladins utilizing these skills.

Warlocks

Warlocks receive a significant boost with Grimoire of Synergy, which sees its damage bonus skyrocket from a mere 5% to a substantial 25%. This significant increase may make it a more viable option for Warlocks seeking to maximize their damage potential in various situations.

Warriors

Lastly, Warriors receive an improvement with Devastate now dealing 150% of your weapon’s DPS, up from 100%. This adjustment may help Warriors keep pace with other tanks in terms of threat generation and overall effectiveness in tanking roles, potentially making them a more competitive option in group content.
