3.1.3 – changes for resto pvp & moonkin T8 set bonus

By Lissanna | Published: May 26, 2009
There are patch notes up for the mini-patch, 3.1.3, which will not make it up on the PTR. There are several druid changes in the patch notes. They made a couple changes for Resto PvP: Improved Barkskin: This talent now also grants 80/160% additional armor while in Travel Form or not shapeshifted. Improved Tree of [...]

Patch 3.1.2 – A few druid changes

By Lissanna | Published: May 19, 2009
The only big change for druids is the innervate change. It now restores a flat amount of mana, which scales as you level – but doesn’t scale with gear at level 80. So, this de-values spirit for caster druids (both resto & moonkin). I discussed the changes to innervate earlier. However, this is a great [...]

Moonkin patch note: More spell power from spirit

By Lissanna | Published: May 8, 2009
Looks like moonkin should be getting 30% of their spirit value as spellpower, according to the MMO-champion patch note update for 3.1.2. I saw that GC was thinking about putting it in, but looks like they managed to get it into a recent version of the patch. It really only buffs PvE moonkin, since PvP [...]

Wild Growth – Pains and workaround

By Lissanna | Published: April 19, 2009
It looks like a lot of healers use “mouseover” mods and/or macros for healing. The new wild growth bug is making it harder for some druids to adjust to their new healing strategies. GC addressed the issue here, saying: This problem does not seem to be universal. Is anyone having it without using mouseover macros? [...]

Healing update: Ulduar observations & nourish idol

By Lissanna | Published: April 18, 2009
So, with my guild, I’ve been healing Ulduar (25-man and 10-man versions) this week. We haven’t spent a lot of time there, but it’s given me an opportunity to play with my healing spells. Our 25-man was banging our heads against the bugged version of Ingis (before the hotfix, while still dealing with bad server [...]

Where are the new glyphs?

By Lissanna | Published: April 17, 2009
This is actually a question I don’t have an answer to. I spent a lot of time during the PTR testing playing with the new glyphs (which they had made available on the special PTR vendor). Then, a few days ago, patch 3.1 hit the live servers. Since then, I have yet to see either [...]
