Earthshrine Earthquake no longer scales with haste (as of build), but the blue post by Sigma states they're increasing Earth Shock's damage to compensate, and will find a balancing sweet spot for Earthquake. Nonetheless the current damage buff doesn't counteract the loss in ticks which by itself is a heavy loss in the chance to knock an enemy down--which was a strength in Mythic+

Earthquake Causes the earth within 8 yards of the target location to tremble and break, dealing (Spell power * 0.50.65 * 6) Physical damage over 6 sec and sometimes knocking down enemies.

Blizzard

Sorry for the confusion on this. The intended set of changes was:
1) Earth Shock buffed (didn't make into build, still planned)
2) Earthquake no longer scales with haste, but buffed to compensate.

Earthquake was double-dipping haste, because its damage per cast scales with haste and Maelstrom generation also scales with haste. That's not necessarily something that always needs an immediate fix, but when it encroaches so heavily on Earth Shock (let alone occasionally surpassing it), that's more of a problem. Trying to pull the two spells apart numerically could have delayed the problem a bit, but even the fact that they're close enough for this is to be an ongoing question is a red flag.

The size of the compensatory buff to Earthquake is open to adjustment if needed, and rigorous feedback on what's a reasonable amount of haste currently used on an "average" Earthquake can help there. It's inevitable that an Earthquake stacked with e.g. Bloodlust and Whispers in the Dark will go down in damage, but an unbuffed one should be able to come up slightly.

Fury of Air Creates a vortex of wind 8 yards around you, dealing (42%46% of Attack power) Nature damage every 1 sec to enemies caught in the storm, and slowing them by 30% for 3 sec.

Elemental Assault Frostbrand now also enhances your weapon's damage, causing each of your weapon attacks to also deal 27%30% Frost damage.

Comment by SearinoxJust remember kids, Ian hates Demo locks.....Comment by Agentkillerlee Dragon Charge Run at high speed at a distance in front of you. All enemies in your path will take (~~75000~~350% of Attack power) Physical damage and be knocked back.Comment by rossaxOh for ^&*!s sake why nerf recurrent ritual it the only thing that made demo be equal to the already op afflictionComment by Alit0So..no more "armaments of the legion fall" reward ? Just a tittle and a pet?Comment by ED209They still missed the opportunity to have a Fel Storm Drake as the original reward. You know, like the ones you see at the Garrison of the Fel? Made so much sense.Comment by kloaf11I just wanted to make sure it was noted somewhere there was a change in the pin notes for elemental shaman. So while EQ was increased it no longers scales with haste. So overall when we stack haste for aoe it is a nerf to EQ.Comment by aztehAnd they still haven't bothered changing Blood DK 4 set. I wonder how many are satisfied with it since it's just HFC all over again.Comment by ladilock Dragon Charge Run at high speed at a distance in front of you.

Just remove this spec, blizz.Comment by percelWait what, so there wasn't be mount for completing Glory? Sigh...Comment by VelianarisSo whos bright idea was itto change the Glory of the tomb raider achievement from transmog items to... A title and battle pet? Like id like a legit answer on thisComment by DwarficitoThey nerf the Demo locks's Shoulder? It seems all the changes we got from Aff and demo are nerfs. I have a feeling that we are pushed to play the new Destro spec, and I dont like it, dont like the way they are doing it or the spec.Comment by DwarficitoOh for ^&*!s sake why nerf recurrent ritual it the only thing that made demo be equal to the already op afflictionComment by DwarficitoOh for ^&*!s sake why nerf recurrent ritual it the only thing that made demo be equal to the already op afflictionComment by DraccyGuess I should see if my friend's guild will help me with the Tomb Raider achievements.
I want the Micronax.Comment by derenaultGood to see Blizzard's usual consistency with screwing Disc priests week to week. Perhaps they're seeking some kind of player validation for just eliminating the spec completely? In that case, go for it, devs, b/c noone is going to play this class seriously after 7.2.5 anyway.
