I am sure this has been covered in 1,000 other posts, but I will ask anyways. Is the Spirit Weapon talent being changed to effect all our damage like the Ret change or will it still only apply to our white damage.

As it is the 15% increase (to 30%) would only net me a 7.5% reduction in general.

Even if it doesn't apply to our shock it would be nice is SS and WF got it. Though I think it should be made to match the Ret one so it is all damage caused

It never applied to only white damage. I personally had this tested extensively. It's going to be 30% damage reduction from white damage, plus stormstrike, plus windfury procs. 15% was simply too low, so the additional 15% should help quite a bit.

I think they are referring to shock damage also.

EDIT: Thought I would clarify, that given the new mental quickness changes, our shocks will generate more threat due to higher damage. This damage is not covered in our Spirit Weapons threat reduction am i correct?


Though shock damage is not covered by this talent, you must keep in mind that your shock damage is both controlled and predictable. Windfury procs are neither -- pure burst. If you're threat limited you may need to limit your shocks a bit, much like any dps class may have to limit dps depending upon any number of variables.

Burst damage won't feel so scary now. :)

Any changes to the early tier enhance talents planned? (shield spec, 5% mana, toughness etc)


Maybe for expansion.
