Did the CMs Speak With the Devs?

Im just curious about where the devs got all the class balance data they're doing in this latest build. MS to Shamans, Lifebloom nerfs, Lifetap nerfs, Poorly itemized feral T6 belt/bracers/boots. Is all of this stuff based on "feedback" they got from the CMs? If not, where do they get these ideas?

Ideas come from various places, including community feedback. That doesn't exclude or preclude other ideas and goals for the current and future play of the classes.

Again, I'm going to sound like a broken record and point out that this patch has been progressive in nature. We stated we would be adding in more over time, and we have. We stated there would be continuing changes, and there have been. I'm sure people have noticed that some notes have changed completely or are even no longer existent with the patch.

Please feel free to test the patch and give constructive feedback either in your class forums or on the PTR forum. We are watching, reading, and continuing discussions internally on how these changes are affecting gameplay.

These sorts of posts, however, are not productive and are instead combative. We're not here to get into arguments with anyone. We're asking for people to try things out. See the results. Give constructive feedback, and work with us.

I'm closing this thread since I would prefer it didn't become another "us vs. them" type of discussion. There are already enough of those at current.

For those that have feedback directly on Community Team performance, please email to wowcmfeedback@blizzard.com
