Beast Mastery Class Tuning

  • Talents

The Beast Mastery specialization in Patch 10.2.6 received a significant boost. The talents associated with Beast Mastery have undergone some modifications to enhance the overall damage and healing capabilities of the class.

  • Effect #1: Apply Aura - Modifies Damage/Healing Done, Value: 710%. This effect significantly increases the damage and healing output of the affected spells.

Furthermore, there are three talents that have been altered to empower the Beast Mastery specialization:

  1. Frenzy: This talent sends you and your pet into a rage, instantly dealing 1.071.1] Physical damage to its target. Additionally, it increases the damage output of both you and your pet by 25% for 15 seconds. Frenzy also removes all crowd control effects from your pet.
  2. Raptor Strike: By commanding your pet to tear into your target, it causes your target to bleed for 1.071.1] damage over 18 seconds. Moreover, it increases all damage taken from your pet by 15% for 18 seconds.
  3. Kill Command: When you give the command to kill, your pet will savagely deal 1.071.1] Physical damage to the enemy. This talent enables your pet to unleash a powerful attack.

Survival Hunter Class Tuning

  • Talents

The Survival Hunter specialization has experienced a slight nerf in Patch 10.2.6. However, the talents remain intact with some adjustments to balance the class.

  • Effect #1: Apply Aura - Modifies Damage/Healing Done, Value: 3632%. This effect alters the damage and healing output of various spells to maintain balance within the class.
  • Effect #2: Apply Aura - Modifies Periodic Damage/Healing Done, Value: 3632%. This effect affects the periodic damage and healing abilities of certain spells.

There are three talents that have been modified to refine the Survival Hunter specialization:

  1. Butchery: This talent allows your pet to deal 1.361.32] Physical damage to the enemy, showcasing its ferociousness in battle. Additionally, Kill Command now has a 10% chance to instantly reset its cooldown while generating 15 Focus. It's a highly efficient attack that comes with advantageous perks.
  2. Mongoose Bite: With this ability, you execute a brutal attack, dealing (148.6% of Attack power) Physical damage. Mongoose Fury, an accompanying effect, boosts the damage of Mongoose Bite by 15% for 14 seconds. The effect stacks up to 5 times, granting you substantial damage potential during battles.
  3. Raptor Strike: Similar to the Beast Mastery specialization, the Raptor Strike talent remains an integral part of the Survival Hunter. It executes a vicious slash, dealing (182.7% of Attack power) Physical damage to the target.
