As short and sweet as the Frost Mage update guide was, I agree with the author that it doesn't go anywhere near far enough to fix the situation mages, and Shadowlands, find themselves in. I started as a Venthyr Frost Mage, made a 210 Frost legendary hoping it would boost my limp DPS, and when it didn't I switched to Night Fae and Fire, and made a 225 Fire legendary.After such an expenditure of time, anima, soul ash and money to offset Blizzard's poor initial balancing, switching back to Venthyr and upgrading my legendary would definitely not be worth the 9% buff to me, as that would still leave Frost Mage 10-18% behind Fire, and ~5% behind Arcane. Maybe that would be "OK" if you discounted the wasted time and resources, but it isn't if you do. This shows the clear design flaws in the Covenant and Legendary systems.
Pls buff Sv hunter
Does those changes work in pvp also?
id like to see more covenant tunning. i love being a necrolord. love the lore, the quests, the buildings, the druid ability not so much.
Both its just better because the mirrors give you 3 free brain freeze procs and we have enough aoe we dont need the night fae one and the cd reduction while nice doesnt matter as much for frost.
+9% frost will be nice, not too sure if it's actually enough though. maybe more refined ability tuning will come later or something... still though, +9% > +0%
We are going to see DH sink lower on the weekly DPS raid charts after these updates.
Why did bicepspump talk about Frost as if it were viable at all in pve? We need significant additional changes to be able to even be played in any pve content over unholy.
Buff MB Hunters now BlizzOrd!But nerf "Animal Companion" ability. I want to play with only 1 pet. Like in good old classic days.
Solid fury buffs I'd say. As the author said fury is already pretty good in m+, I'm very often on top of dmg meter on trash fights. I think these buffs will be felt in single target, the one place where we need some help
Buff destruction warlock already ;-;
Now that Destro will be the bottom, how will we fix that besides pressing N, clicking Afflic, and clicking activate?

Buff destro, please! :c Or make the Venthyr covenant ability actually worthwhile for locks. Something, man, I’m begging you, Blizz! lmao
buff destro warlock, now is unplayable in the arena... covenant ability is nothing for destro too...
Havoc needs a buff in PVE badly, It was also overnerfed in PVP and needs a buff. Only thing that makes it viable for PVP is a short burst window thanks to 1 broken covenant ability. Without that they are dead weight. Talking about covenant abilities... Yeah those in PVP defiantly need a looking at as beyond broken. I am all for fast games but going from 100 to 0 with no ability to counter surly cant be intended? I'm talking boomkin/feral convoke style here.
