October 24, 2023 2 minutes

Hello and welcome to our blog! Today, we're diving into the latest hotfixes that have been implemented on the 10.2 PTR. These hotfixes bring some exciting changes to the Vengeance Demon Hunter and some nerfs to the Outlaw Rogue. It's always interesting to see how these adjustments affect gameplay, so let's take a closer look at what's been updated.

Outlaw Rogue Nerfs

One of the major changes for the Outlaw Rogue is a reduction to the aura, bringing it down from 11% to 5%. This adjustment is aimed at balancing the class and ensuring fair gameplay. While this might be perceived as a nerf, it's important to remember that balancing changes are made to ensure a level playing field for all players, and it's likely that other aspects of the class have also been tweaked to accommodate this adjustment.

Vengeance Demon Hunter Adjustments

On the Vengeance Demon Hunter side, we see a reduction in the damage output of the Immolation Aura. The damage has been reduced by 8%, which again is likely done in the interest of class balance. It's crucial for developers to evaluate and fine-tune certain spells and abilities to promote a fair and enjoyable gaming experience for all players.

  • Elysian Decree Damage Increase

In contrast to the nerfs, Demon Hunters also receive a buff in the form of an 11% increase in damage for the Elysian Decree ability. This change aims to strengthen the class and provide players with a more powerful tool to engage in combat.

  • Conclusion

In these latest PTR hotfixes, Blizzard has made significant adjustments to the Vengeance Demon Hunter and Outlaw Rogue classes. While the reductions to the aura and Immolation Aura may initially seem like nerfs, they are intended to create balance and fairness in gameplay. On the other hand, the increase in damage for the Elysian Decree ability gives Demon Hunters a much-needed boost. As always, it will be fascinating to see how these changes impact the gameplay experience and how players adapt to the new dynamics. Stay tuned for more updates and happy gaming!
