Items

• Carafe of Searing Light now correctly shares a short cooldown with other "Use" trinkets.
• Convergence of Fates primary stat increased by 13%. Effect reduced to 3 seconds of cooldown reduction (was 4 seconds).
  • Developers’ notes: This change is aimed at changing how Convergence of Fate scales with item level – or rather, how it doesn’t. For some specializations, the cooldown reduction effect is so powerful that the item level of the trinket is all but irrelevant. We’re shifting more of the item’s power to primary stat and less in the base proc to cause the trinket’s scaling with item level to be more similar to other trinkets in Legion.

Noting that I've added the following to the OP:

Hunter
Beast Mastery

When both Convergence of Fates and Serpentstalker Guise 4-piece are equipped, the value of the 4-piece set bonus will be reduced.Warrior
Fury

When both Convergence of Fates and Juggernaut Battlegear 4-piece are equipped, the value of the 4-piece set bonus will be reduced.

All right I've got the numbers in. The OP now reads:

Warrior
Fury

Convergence of Fates has been changed when used with Juggernaut Battlegear 4-piece. Now when both are equipped, after Battle Cry is cast, a buff increases the value of the set bonus from 0 to 100% over the span of 45 seconds.Hunter
Beast Mastery

Convergence of Fates now causes the Serpentstalker Guise 4-piece set bonus to be reduced by 50%.

Developers' notes: With this trinket and the 4-piece set, instead of receiving 2.5 seconds of reduction per Kill Command, you'll receive 1.25 seconds of cooldown reduction per Kill Command.

Good morning!

I'm just confirming that we decided against the Convergence of Fates hotfixes. I've struck them from the OP of this thread.

And I've replaced the initial post here with the final, full list of hotfixes.

Thanks again for the feedback here and elsewhere.
