The Monk Temple Reborn

Sounds like they are trying to rebalance the secondary scales. I am interested to what they are changing on Shoulder Tackle and Featherfoot though. Seems odd that they need to adjust parameters on those.

Yea that Crit change gets me imagining popping Internal Release while having a DRG pop Battle Litany and applying/seeing some high/fast DoT ticks.

It has me giddy for the BRDs. @_@

On topic, though, I still wonder if GL3 will affect dot damage. It'd be pretty broken if so, but it still seems like something to test.

Considering it's a buff that effects our Skill Speed, it most certainly will.

Correction, it affects your Attack Speed, which is some form of base speed increase on your autos and GCDs. Skill Speed itself doesn't get impacted by Greased Lightning in any way, so I'd have to assume no.

[Chokee]

i'm not sure, greased lightning says attack speed, not the skill speed stat. hmm

[Chokee]

you guys think they will nerf demolish a bit because it will start scaling with SS?

[Ricdeau]

Yeah, I doubt very much that GL will have an effect on DOTs since it's an attack speed buff rather than skill speed.

I am hoping that the parameters they are "adjusting" on Shoulder Tackle is removing the dead zone. Not really something that is that big of a deal, but the dead zone is a little annoying sometimes.

I see no need that they would need to. Other classes have very powerful DOTs as well that are in the same position that Demo is in.

I also seriously doubt it, but at some point I'll take the 2 minutes to confirm, just so if anyone claims it does I'll have something to reference.

"Critical hit rate now affects damage dealt with a critical strike."

someone please don't forget to test internal release as well.
IR says it increases critical hit rate (which should also increase critical strike damage in 3.0), but it doesn't show in the character stats page. so it might or might not increase the damage of critical hits.

i tested other buffs that changes stats (brd's dex buff, whm's ss buff) and it changes their stats on their stat page. only ir seems to act this way.
