| − | == Buffs, debuffs, and raid stacking in WotLK == |
||
| − | {{comment}} |
||
| − | In the {{wotlk-inline}} expansion, buff stacking and whether buffs affected the raid versus only the party were significantly changed. Here is the official release of this change from Blizzard on the forums: |
||
| − | |||
| − | {{bluepost |
||
| − | | poster = Vaneras |
||
| − | | date = 2008-08-29 00:20:15 |
||
| − | | subject = Changes to Debuffs, Buffs, and Raid Stacking |
||
| − | | body = With the release of patch 3.0.2 players will see a change in the way we allow buffs and debuffs to stack exclusively in a raid. For the most part, what this change means is that many buffs and debuffs that were previously allowed to stack together no longer can, and that many buffs and debuffs that only a single talent specialization could bring can now be brought by multiple different specializations. The philosophy behind this change shows up in many of the changes we have made in Wrath of The Lich King, such as when we made almost all buffs raid-wide. We want players to be able to form raids and parties based on who they want to play with, rather than who has the correct talents and abilities to min-max their raid performance. |
||
| − | |||
| − | <p>Raid composition will still matter to some extent, but without this change, it would have overwhelmed every other aspect of raid planning (as we added new capabilities to each of 30 different talent trees). You no longer need to rigidly control the melee/spellcaster balance of your raid, or make sure every group has all the critical buffing classes, etc. This change has many class balance implications. </p> |
||
| − | |||
| − | <p>'''IMPORTANT!''' Before we are done, we will thoroughly test the performance of every class. It should not be assumed that one class' current performance relative to others in beta is final. Some classes (and specializations) will need to be reduced in power and some increased. Many may feel the change has more impact on class X than class Y. We will address all of those concerns via our internal testing and community feedback. </p> |
||
| − | |||
| − | <p>There are thirty or so different categories into which buffs and debuffs fit. Here you will find a comprehensive list of the changes made broken down by category and which spells/talents are in that category. </p> |
||
| − | |||
| − | * Armor Debuff (Major): {{ability|Acid Spit}} (exotic Hunter pet), {{ability|Expose Armor}}, {{ability|Sunder Armor}} |
||
| − | * Armor Debuff (Minor): {{ability|Faerie Fire}}, {{ability|Sting}} (Hunter pet), {{ability|Curse of Recklessness}} |
||
| − | * Physical Vulnerability Debuff: {{ability|Blood Frenzy}}, (2nd Talent Spec TBA) |
||
| − | * Melee Haste Buff: {{ability|Improved Icy Talons}}, {{ability|Windfury Totem}} |
||
| − | * Melee Critical Strike Chance Buff: {{ability|Leader of the Pack}}, {{ability|Rampage}} |
||
| − | * Attack Power Buff (Flat Add): {{ability|Battle Shout}}, {{ability|Blessing of Might}} |
||
| − | * Attack Power Buff (Multiplier): {{ability|Abomination's Might}}, {{ability|Trueshot Aura}}, {{ability|Unleashed Rage}} |
||
| − | * Ranged Attack Power Buff: {{ability|Hunter's Mark}} (only Hunters benefit, so no need to exclude against other class abilities) |
||
| − | * Bleed Damage Increase Debuff: {{ability|Mangle}}, {{ability|Trauma}} |
||
| − | * Spell Haste Buff: {{ability|Wrath of Air Totem}} |
||
| − | * Spell Critical Strike Chance Buff: {{ability|Moonkin Aura}}, {{ability|Elemental Oath}} |
||
| − | * Spell Critical Strike Chance Debuff: {{ability|Improved Scorch}}, {{ability|Winter's Chill}} |
||
| − | * Increased Spell Damage Taken Debuff: {{ability|Ebon Plaguebringer}}, {{ability|Earth and Moon}}, {{ability|Curse of the Elements}} |
||
| − | * Increased Spell Power Buff: {{ability|Focus Magic}}, {{ability|Improved Divine Spirit}}, {{ability|Flametongue Totem}}, {{ability|Totem of Wrath}}, {{ability|Demonic Pact}} |
||
| − | * Increased Spell Hit Chance Taken Debuff: {{ability|Improved Faerie Fire}}, {{ability|Misery}} |
||
| − | * Percentage Haste Increase (All Types): {{ability|Improved Moonkin Aura}}, {{ability|Swift Retribution}} |
||
| − | * Percentage Damage Increase: {{ability|Ferocious Inspiration}}, {{ability|Sanctified Retribution}} |
||
| − | * Critical Strike Chance Taken Debuff (All types): {{ability|Heart of the Crusader}}, {{ability|Totem of Wrath}} |
||
| − | * Melee Attack Speed Slow Debuff: {{ability|Icy Touch}}, {{ability|Infected Wounds}}, {{ability|Judgements of the Just}}, {{ability|Thunderclap}} |
||
| − | * Melee Hit Chance Reduction Debuff: {{ability|Insect Swarm}}, {{ability|Scorpid Sting}} |
||
| − | * Healing Debuff: {{ability|Wound Poison}}, {{ability|Aimed Shot}}, {{ability|Mortal Strike}}, {{ability|Furious Attacks}} |
||
| − | * Attack Power Debuff: {{ability|Demoralizing Roar}}, {{ability|Curse of Weakness}}, {{ability|Demoralizing Shout}} |
||
| − | * Stat Multiplier Buff: {{ability|Blessing of Kings}} |
||
| − | * Stat Add Buff: {{ability|Mark of the Wild}} |
||
| − | * Agility and Strength Buff: {{ability|Strength of Earth Totem}}, {{ability|Horn of Winter}} |
||
| − | * Stamina Buff: {{ability|Power Word: Fortitude}} |
||
| − | * Health Buff: {{ability|Commanding Shout}}, {{ability|Blood Pact}} |
||
| − | * Intellect Buff: {{ability|Arcane Intellect}}, {{ability|Fel Intelligence}} |
||
| − | * Spirit Buff: {{ability|Divine Spirit}}, {{ability|Fel Intelligence}} |
||
| − | * Damage Reduction Percentage Buff: {{ability|Grace}}, {{ability|Blessing of Sanctuary}} |
||
| − | * Percentage Increase Healing Received Buff: {{ability|Tree of Life}}, {{ability|Improved Devotion Aura}} |
||
| − | * Armor Increase Percentage Buff: {{ability|Inspiration}}, {{ability|Ancestral Healing}} |
||
| − | * Cast Speed Slow: {{ability|Curse of Tongues}}, {{ability|Slow}}, {{ability|Mind-numbing Poison}}. |
||
| − | |||
| − | <p>In each category, you can only benefit from the most powerful spell granting that effect. For example, Fel Intelligence grants spirit and intellect, both weaker than Arcane Intellect and Divine Spirit. If a player has Fel Intelligence and receives a stronger Arcane Intellect buff, he will gain the intellect value from Arcane Intellect and the spirit value from Fel Intelligence. </p> |
||
| − | |||
| − | <p>In most cases, fully-talented players will have exactly equal power on the strength of these buffs and debuffs. Fel Intelligence is an example of where one ability is weaker than others. The buffs in the "Increased Spell Power Buff" category are also not all the same potency, as they scale and grow in radically different ways. In virtually every other case, however, the buffs are equal. This means, for example, that fully-talented Battle Shout and Blessing of Might now grant the exact same amount of attack power. </p> |
||
| − | |||
| − | <p>In addition to this change, we also needed to address the "mana battery" roles in a raid. The mana regeneration effect they grant is no longer limited to their own party, and it no longer depends on the amount of damage they deal. Each time they trigger the mana regeneration effect, 10 people in their raid group will receive a buff which causes them to regenerate 0.5% of their maximum mana each second. This buff, Replenishment, will be given preferentially to raid members with the lowest mana, but will re-evaluate which raid members receive it each time it is fired. Replenishment is provided by Shadow Priests, Survival Hunters, and Retribution Paladins. </p> |
||
| − | |||
| − | <p>Finally, we have modified Heroism and Bloodlust to affect the entire raid. However, all affected raid members will be unable to cast or benefit from Bloodlust/Heroism for 5 minutes. </p> |
||
| − | |||
| − | <p>Below you will find a list of the changes to abilities which exhibit new behavior regardless of the exclusive categories. The changes usually mean the old behavior was removed and replaced by the new behavior. Numbers listed are for maximally-talented versions. Here is that list of changes: </p> |
||
| − | |||
| − | * {{ability|Improved Scorch}}: Increases spell critical strike chance against the target. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Winter's Chill}}: Also increases spell critical strike chance against the target. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Elemental Oath}}: Grants 5% spell crital strike to raid members. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Improved Moonkin Aura}}: Grants 3% haste of all types. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Earth and Moon}}: Increases spell damage taken from all schools by 13% on the target. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Misery}}: Causes spells cast at the target to have +3% spell hit. |

||
| − | * {{ability|Expose Weakness}}: Buffs only self. |

| − | * {{ability|Grace}}: Reduces damage taken by target by 3%. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Rampage}}: Increases melee and ranged critical strike chance by 5% for the raid. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Improved Faerie Fire}}: No longer benefits melee and ranged hit chance, only spell hit. |

||
| − | * {{ability|Improved Hunter's Mark}}: No longer grants melee attack power. |
||

||
| − | * {{ability|Waylay}}: Attack speed reduction changed to 20%. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Icy Touch}}: Only slows melee attack speed (not ranged or spell). |
||
| − | * {{ability|Tree of Life}}: No longer grants healing based on spirit, grants 3% increased healing received to raid. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Demonic Pact}}: Now buffs raid instead of debuffing monsters. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Focus Magic}}: Now buffs raid instead of debuffing monsters. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Totem of Wrath}}: Now grants a flat amount of spell damage, and all enemies in its radius have an increased chance of being struck by criticals. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Heroism}}: Cannot be recast while caster has Exhausted debuff, and those with Exhausted debuff cannot be affected by it. |
||
| − | * {{ability|Bloodlust}}: Cannot be recast while caster has Sated debuff, and those with Sated debuff cannot be affected by it. |

Revision as of 13:33, 4 December 2011
 |
The subject of this article was removed from World of Warcraft in patch 4.0.3a.
|
- The Alliance equivalent is Forging the Mightstone quest chain.
 Forging the Scourgestone | |
|---|---|
| Level range | 52 |
| Zones | Temple of Atal'Hakkar |
This is the Horde Paladin specific quest to the Sunken Temple.
Forging the Scourge
While training in Silvermoon, Champion Bachi tells you that Mehlar Dawnblade has requested an audience with you, at the Bulwark.
- Training in Undercity, it may have been Champion Cyssa Dawnrose who contacted you.
Mehlar Dawnblade reminds you of some important history... the slaughter of Blood Elves by Arthas and the Scourge. He tells you to talk to Argent Officer Garush to learn about Scourgestones and how to get them.
You don the 
[Argent Dawn Commission], and proceed to wreak havoc among the
undead in Western Plaguelands, collecting scourgestones where you
can. Finally, you time somewhat and return to Mehlar with your spoils.
The scourgestones prove weak, and Mehlar crushed them in his bare hands. He insists you take them to Lady Sylvanas Windrunner, the Banshee Queen, in Undercity. She would know how to turn the fragments into a weapon against the scourge.
The queen is not pleased to see the remnants you carry. She does, however, see your resolve, and offers to aid you in your vengeance.
You must acquire something equally vile to fortify the stones, if you are to use them as a weapon against the scourge. And she knows just what will do: In the pit at the bottom of the Temple of Atal'Hakkar in the Swamp of Sorrows, an evil awaits. Release it, destroy it, and return to Mehlar with a portion of it.
You find and fight Atal'alarion in the Temple, and recover a
[Putrid Vine] from the corpse. Mehlar is pleased to see it; it is just what
is needed. His weaves the vine through the fragments, and Mehlar names the
result 
[Scourgebane]. He warns that it serves against its will, and would
turn on you if given the chance.
