Deep Wounds Hotfix? - Blue Tracker

#0 - Feb. 4, 2009, 4 a.m.

Was deep wounds hotfixed recently, a numer of Fury Warriors are reporting about a 50% drop in overall Deepwounds dmg.

Can any Blue Confirm/Deny this?

Thanks.

We have been working on fixing the bugs with Deep Wounds so that we wouldn't have to just nerf it across the board. Some of those hotfixes may have gone in.

Fury in particular was doing too much damage on many encounters solely because of these bugs. We think Arms pve damage is probably too low, but we don't want to adjust that by having a buggy Deep Wounds. We also want to make sure prot warriors do not lose too much damage or threat.

EDIT: Further down, I clarify the exact change.

Q u o t e:
1.) The weapon damage got all the modifiers (Enrage or Death wish, Two handed spec.)
2.) Then the bleed got those same modifiers (Enrage/Death+Two handed spec).

This is the change we made: Number 2 will no longer happen. Instead Deep Wounds will just be a percentage of the damage calculated in number 1.
