New buffs are coming to World of Warcraft. Fire mages can really rejoice, but Windwalker monks will also see significant improvements.
Meanwhile, many players have gathered solid gear from Season 3, and the DPS rankings in World of Warcraft are becoming increasingly accurate. This also highlights the discrepancy between certain classes regarding their damage output and the use of tier sets. Blizzard is making adjustments and helping some classes with sometimes drastic improvements. We have all the information for you.
What will be changed? A lot. We will go through the changes in detail – there are both buffs and nerfs.
Druid
- Guardian
- Set bonus (4): The damage and healing of Architect’s Angle is reduced by 35%.
Wizard
- Fire
- Set bonus (2): The duration of Conflagration is increased by 4 seconds (previously 3 seconds).
- The damage of the spell Fireball is increased by 20% (not in PvP).
- The damage of the spell Firestrike is increased by 10% (not in PvP).

Paladin

When will the changes go live? In the night from April 5th to April 6th, with the server maintenance or the region-wide restart. After that, you can benefit from the buffs and, if you belong to the affected classes, you should feel significant improvements.
What do you think of these adjustments? Appropriate and necessary? Or does Blizzard “once again” buff exactly the wrong classes?
