Season 4, 2.4 Item changes, blue posts

[RSS News Poster]

Raid testing has been disabled on PTR for a few days, it gives us some time to cover the most important points of the last two weeks. There was a few important announcements that I didn't report because of the tons of 2.4 information but I guess it's a good time to do it now.

Season 4 Armor - Slight update
Don't get your hopes too high, there isn't any new item. I just re-did the screenshot on a human player because a few items look nicer on him (and it prevents clipping on helms).

Warrior
[Brutal Gladiator's Plate Chestpiece], [Brutal Gladiator's Plate Gauntlets], [Brutal Gladiator's Plate Helm], [Brutal Gladiator's Plate Legguards], [Brutal Gladiator's Plate Shoulders]

Druid
[Brutal Gladiator's Dragonhide Tunic], [Brutal Gladiator's Kodohide Tunic], [Brutal Gladiator's Wyrmhide Tunic]

Paladin
[Brutal Gladiator's Ornamented Chestguard]


Shifting Tanzanite nerfed
A lot of melee DPS classes will be very sad about this, but the good old [item=30549] got nerfed from +5 Strength +4 Agility to +5 Agility and +6 Stamina. It's been added to the list of undocumented changes from the latest PTR Build

Sunwell raid testing disabled on PTR until next build
It looks like Blizzard had enough raid testing, the Sunwell Plateau raid instance will be disabled until the next PTR Build.

I wanted to give everyone a head's up that we'll be disabling the Sunwell Raid zone on the PTR until we our next PTR patch (which will be very soon!). We're applying a hotfix right now that will accomplish this.

The testing on the PTR has been excellent and we greatly appreciate all of the hard work you guys are doing. You're going to help us to make the zone great!

Kalecgos is close enough that we can finish off testing him internally at this point. Brutallus will get a minor change next patch (stomp removes burn). We'll do brief testing on him next patch and then disable him. Felmyst and the Eredar Twins both get major changes next patch. The oh-so-compelling, non-boss mobs also get a good deal of tuning in the next patch.

Thanks again and we'll see the Sunwell Raiding folks in a day or two!




Drinking nerfed in PvP
First "old" post of the day, I never posted about it and it's one of the major PvP changes in 2.4 : Drinking in arenas has been nerfed ! It's briefly mentionned in the patch notes and you'd probably like some details.

There is indeed a change in 2.4 intended to offset some of the mana regen from drinking away from the very beginning of the duration.

However, we specifically made sure the water would not change the amount of mana regenerated by players who drink between pulls or during gauntlet runs. You should see little to no difference in the amount of mana yielded if you sit to drink for at least 4 seconds, which most players do.

So right now you get a tick roughly every two seconds. After the change the first tick will give y...
