News: Notable 2.4.2 PvP Changes
April 25th, 2008 by Yuukie ·

Some tweaks here and there:

Hunters

  • Aspect of the Viper: This ability now grants an additional amount of mana each 5 seconds equal to 35% of the hunter’s level. - slight mp5 boost, 24.5 mp5 to be exact
  • Scare Beast: The range on this spell has been increased to 30 yards and it is now instant cast. - This sounds pretty big vs Druids and other Hunter pets, especially Druids. Looking forward to what kind of impact it will have.

All ZG charms that were still useful has been rendered garbage. It’s nice to see that blizzard are timely on these fixes, especially after some people have invested 7 weeks in to getting them post BC.

Rumors of an epic version of PvP Trinket has been around, yet another 40k to grind - fun right? Full boring notes can be found here.

    “Nightfall now has a chance to fail on targets over level 60.”

    What?

    Inkind: The weapon, not the proc.

  3. Snitchers Says:

    Nightfall is an axe that has a chance on hit to proc a global 15% spell vulnerability on the target. My tank has one in his bags for when he doesnt have anything better to do. I suppose the proc now has a chance to fail, ie. “get resisted”. It is ridiculous anyway :)

  4. Snitchers Says:

    Scare Beast is ridiculous on the other hand. I hope to God they revert that.

  5. Auvria Says:

    Yeah, druids really should be handed gladiator on a silver platter imo. What were they thinking giving them a challenge?

  6. Gladiator Horrify Says:

    Nightfall was one of the best weapons for brutallus, allowed casters to push huge dps (2500+ kthxbye?) which is why it was nerfed.

    The ZG trinket nerfs were unnecessary and blizzard just being dicks.

    I bet the 40k trinket will require 1800 or 1900 - But do people really need 25 more resilience?

  7. warlfg Says:

    Horrify: The extra resilience will free up room for alternative gear choices.
