With the first week of the Curse of Ula’tek content update, we’re making some adjustments to low and high performers to start Season 2 next week. We’ve identified several tier sets that would greatly overperform our expected targets if we didn’t make targeted adjustments to bring their throughput to more expected power levels. At the same time, we’re increasing affected specs baseline abilities to limit the impact of the changes to their tier set bonuses.

CLASS CHANGES

DEATH KNIGHT Blood San’layn Visceral Strength now grants 6% strength (was 10%). Transfusion increases Dancing Rune Weapon damage by 5% (was 10%). Developers’ notes: The tooltip will be updated at a later date to reflect the new value. Frost All ability and auto-attack damage increased by 9%. The Venomous Abyss 2-set bonus has been updated – Now grants 1% attack speed per stack (was 2%). Now increases Icy Death Torrent damage by 2% per stack (was 4%).
