Weekend Warfront: Thunder Valley Rampage

Image

A battle's broken out down at Thunder Valley. Seems the greenskins have found the secret workshop where Dwarf Engineers are developin' new engines of war. Thunder Valley's importance to the war effort can't be overstated. Quick now, go join the fight. We need every warrior we can get down there!

This weekend Thunder Valley Rampage will be the weekend warfront from 12:00 on Friday to 12:00 on Tuesday Altdorf time (intentionally extended to cover the delay on Friday). You get +50% XP and Renown in the Thunder Valley scenario, and extra rewards from completing the event tasks. Completing all tasks will grant the title: "Thunderous Veteran".



Introduction
Image

While the balance team is busy working on the Melee DPS changes, we are releasing this patch in preparation. It contains a rebalancing of buffs and debuffs, some cool new interactions for the Chosen and Knight of the Blazing Sun with their Auras and Battle Commands, and several quality of life features. The most significant change however, is the way damage reduction abilities interact with each other.



Damage Reducing Abilities
Image

When the ability system rework was implemented, all abilities and their functionalities were reset to live patch 1.4.8 and changes made in RoR were manually implemented. Since not all changes to RoR were documented, this in some cases resulted in discrepancies between the old and new ability system.

One of these discrepancies is related to the way different forms of damage reduction abilities, such as Guard and Challenge, interact with each other. In the old ability system, Guard, Challenge and Distracting Bellow would all stack with each other. However, when we moved to the new ability system, both Challenge and Distracting Bellow had exceptions where they would not reduce the damage if the target was Guarded.

This interaction directly affects the Time To Kill (TTK) and is the main reason why the current TTK is a lot shorter than it was before the ability system rework. We feel like the TTK can be too fast at times and thus we are changing Challenge and Distracting Bellow (and a couple other abilities) to once again stack with Guard and Detaunt.

To not cause this change to swing the TTK too far in the other direction, we did reduce the uptime and/or effectiveness of Challenge and Distracting Bellow. The exact changes can be found in the list below. We hope to balance the TTK with these changes. It makes sense to do this before the DPS phase, so we know how to balance the overall damage DPS classes can bring.



Buffs and Debuffs
Image

AoE damage and healing abilities do less damage and less healing than their single target counterparts. We are applying the same principle to buffs and debuffs. Single target buffs and debuffs have been made slightly stronger and their AoE versions slightly weaker. In a future patch we will also address procs from gear, setting those values equal to the AoE versions.

This rebalancing of buffs and debuffs affects classes in different ways. For all DPS classes, that will be taken into account in the future patches. For healers and tanks we feel that the most significant loser of the patch would have been the Chosen and Knight of the Blazing Sun, considering most of their buffs and debuffs are AoE.

This is why we went to the drawing board to think of a way to compensate these two classes. In the past, we have considered changing the Auras mechanic completely, but the increased complexity that it would bring was met with disapproval. This is why instead of changing the auras themselves, we added interactions of other abilities with the auras.



Archmage & Shaman
Image

For the new mechanic of the Archmage and Shaman the feedback is that mechanic flows better for DPS specs than for Healer specs. The main reason for that is that healing Archmages and Shamans often feel stuck at 5 Tranquility / Gork’s Waaagh!. With this patch we made changes to promote using your 5 Tranquility / Gork’s Waaagh!, instead of sitting at 5 Tranquility / Gork’s Waaagh!, waiting for the need to burst heal.



Tanks
Image
In addition to the changes to the Knight of the Blazing Sun and Chosen, we added a quality of life feature where tank classes no longer need a tactic slot for their single target knockbacks to be valuable. These tactics still bring value by lowering the cooldowns of the knockbacks, but they no longer feel as mandatory.

Balance Changes

- Ere We Go! - Now builds Gork’s Waaagh. Mork’s Waaagh! increases its effectiveness. 1-4 Mork’s Waaagh!: Reduces active cooldowns by 2 seconds. This effect can only occur once every 5 seconds. 5 Mork’s Waaaagh!: Reduces active cooldowns by 5 seconds. This effect can only occur once every 5 seconds.
Great news.

Destro now have an access to a free cd reduction so you can spam your channels/powerful abilities more ofen.

I won't be surprised if it does reduce morale's cooldowns too, which can lead to a stuation in which both sides are used their morales but destro has their morales ready again while order still can't do anything.

Even better if you have "For the witch king" in your party to combo this to reduce your cd even more (don't forget to reduce cd for cd reducer...). And all that greatness is completely free, no questions asked (not even a tactic slot!).

What did order's side get to counter this shaman buff? NOTHING.

Kotbs got:

500 hp / 15sec
937 absorb / 15sec
Another Magic dot
30% armor penetration
30% strikethrough
-50% incomig dmg for 20 sec with 30sec CD
150 initative debuff
Free long punt
Snare with long punt


guys are you ok?
This is reminds me a time when a dev played wl and somehow the wl has lot of very good buff and bug favour for wl.

Nobody learned from the past?
This is missleading they actually get:

500 hp / 15sec "perseverance have 30 sec cooldown not 15 without tactic"
937 absorb / 15sec "shield of the sun also have 30 sec cooldown without tactic"
Another Magic dot "75+75dmg every 10 sec"
10% armor penetration "for Myrmidia’s Fury only"
10% strikethrough for "kd skill only"
-50% incomig dmg for 20 sec with 30sec CD "you cant take vigilance if you have 3 different auras from other trees"
150 initative debuff "if you interrupt an ability"
Free long punt "chosen also get this too"
Snare with long punt "chosen also get this too"

And they are all mirrored for chosen
Destruction: 40-BG / 40-DoK / 40-Chosen / 37-Mara / 37/Sorc / 36-SH / 36-Choppa / 24-Shaman / 16-WE
Order: 40-SW / 40-SM / 40-WP / 40-WL / 39-Kotbs / 38-BW / 33-AM / 22-WH / 16-RP / 12-Slayer

No missleading from my side.
You wrote the worst uneffective useing
I wrote the best effective useing

I dont check all of these on chosen, but i have both and i dont remeber at all -50% incoming dmg and i really hope i wont!
Tank a perma selfguarded tank…. What a balance OMG

Nice cherry picking filled with complete ignorance of what tactics/conditionals is needed, and what you can and can't get in a single spec. And where's the whine for chosen who got just as good buffs? :D

Honestly, this all-or-nothing policy is really annoying. And meanwhile, classes like the Slayer have been dragging their misery for months without any positive change. Some balancing, please...
