Highlight current changes

The final touches are being made on the WoW test realm for Shadowlands Patch 9.2
. Some important details like the acquisition of additional socket slots are still missing, otherwise the current build looks pretty far along. The developers are therefore finding time to further customize classes and their tier sets.
In the latest PTR build
, the nerfs mainly hit the ferocity druid and the mage's frost playstyle. Keep in mind, however, that a lot can still change until the release of patch 9.2 and that the performance of the individual specs will be looked at again after the first raid IDs.
Update from February 10, 2022: With the changes for the Frost Mage, the Mythic Plus build in particular was virtually destroyed. The developers have realized this and have announced in the official forum that the nerfs for Frozen Orb and Blizzard will remain, but the nerf for the Icy Drive medium will be completely withdrawn
. Frost mages will thus still be able to keep Icy Veins active in dungeons almost permanently.
Class Buffs and Nerfs - PTR Build 9.2.0.42257
- Death Knight

- Druid

- Set of 4 bonus: Damage reduced by 65%.
- Developer comment: This adjustment is pretty heavy so we wanted to explain why this is necessary. Sickle of the Lion's damage was set too high due to a bug that caused external power increases, such as Mastery and abilities that enhance Feral's rotation, to double dip and even triple dip into those benefits. The damage reduction reflects the removal of those repeat benefits and bringing the damage in line with other set bonuses. We are watching feedback closely and will adjust, even post launch, if the need arises. Thank you for testing and providing feedback, we genuinely appreciate the support!
