New Discoveries in Phase 2 PTR Datamining - Season of Exploration
Greetings, adventurers! Today we have some exciting news for all you casters out there. As datamining on the PTR continues, we've discovered that several old items in the level 25-40 range are getting some major updates in Patch 1.15.1 Build 53009. These updates are mainly focused on improving itemization for casters, with changes such as replacing stats like Spirit with more relevant ones like Spell Power and Healing Power.
