Q u o t e:
Hunger for Blood – instead of a self-buff, this ability can only be used when there is a bleed effect on the target. However, it has no stacks and grants a 15% damage bonus.




In a typical 25man raid setting this change will amount to roughly a 300 DPS increase
(Assuming you still have to refresh HfB, blizz wasnt really clear on that, If this ability is changed to passive then we would net a tiny bit more dps)

Is that all? I dont know about you guys but an extra 300 dps is not enough for our DPS to become compedative again.

In this fight a Mutilate rogue is pulling 5250 DPS

This change would pull that too just under 5500 DPS

putting him in 10TH place behind

1 Druid
2 warriors
2 Mages
1 Shamman
2 Locks
1 DK

A pure class in 10TH place behind EVERY other pure class and 4 Hybrids.............

We need more buffs then this

We just wanted to offer a preview of some changes. We went with a very small number because we knew some players would immediately go to "He got more buffs than me."
