They may have synergies with talents further down the tree, but they shouldn’t make you feel like specific builds or capstone talents are “required.” As a result, they generally modify core class abilities or talents that are learned near the top of the tree. We want you to be able to play the way you choose in whatever content you prefer. But you’ll find that these bonuses generally take a light touch on features like resource generation and cooldown manipulation.Īnother goal that came from wanting you all to have a chance to get familiar with Dragonflight’s new classes is that we want these Class Sets to have minimal impact on your talent choices. This is not to say that we won’t make more complex or rotationally impactful Class Sets in the future. The new talent trees have resulted in a lot of changes to classes in Dragonflight, and we want you all to be able to play those classes without Class Sets that significantly change your rotations or resource economies. First and foremost, these Class Set bonuses are not as complex as the effects on 9.2 Class Sets. We set a few goals for this round of Class Sets. To add to the excitement, these bonuses will be playable in the next beta build! We’re excited to share the bonuses you’ll discover on Class Sets in Dragonflight. We will be monitoring any unintended side effects from this change, but this should help make Windfury Totem more valuable to more specs within the game.īlizzard have detailed all the Season 1 Dragonflight tier set bonuses, the various ways players can acquire them and more! We hear about the reasoning behind the designs (which will be more simplistic than the 9.2 sets), their impact on talent tree choices, the Inspiration Catalyst and more, so let's take a look. Targets can still dodge or parry these attacks, they are just no longer able to miss.īonus bug fix: Enhancement Shaman who are under the effects of Ascendance can now benefit from Windfury Totem if they are auto-attacking from outside of melee range range with Windlash. In Shadowlands, this miss chance both applies to the chance to get the Windfury Totem’s extra attack, and the extra attack itself can then miss. This has very little impact on 2h users, as an Arms Warrior or Retribution Paladin almost never see a miss in their combat log, however dual-wield users have a high miss chance. Windfury Totem extra attacks can no longer miss. This is an actual real “auto attack”, which means things like Flametongue Weapon, or whatever other effects may activate from off-hand attacks, can now potentially happen from this bonus attack. Off-hand attacks can proc an off-hand Windfury attack. Main-hand auto attack interaction is unchanged, except for the miss note below. The next build you receive should have Windfury Totem changed to work this way: These changes have no impact on the Windfury Weapon imbue, nothing is changing with how that works.įor some quick context, in Shadowlands, Windfury Totem can only activate from main-hand auto-attacks, and causes a main-hand auto-attack swing when it activates. Blizzard have detailed changes coming to Enhancement Shaman's Windfury totem with the next Beta build.Ī change is coming next week to how Windfury Totem works.
