[2019] PvP Tuning - January 11, 2019

5:15 pm PST - The changes below are now live.

We’re currently working on some targeted adjustments to three specs in PvP. We don’t have a precise time these will go live, but we’re estimating late today or perhaps tomorrow afternoon:

Monk

• Mistweaver
• Surging Mist (PvP Talent) mana cost increased to 3.8% of base mana (was 2% of base mana), and healing reduced by 20%.
• Way of the Crane (PvP Talent) increases physical damage by 25% (was 35%), and now heals for 150% of damage dealt (was 200%).

Shaman

• Elemental
• Earth Shock damage reduced by 10% when engaged in combat with enemy players.
• Stormkeeper increases Lightning Bolt damage by 115% when engaged in combat with enemy players (was 125%).
• Surge of Power can now cause up to an additional 2 Lightning Bolt overloads against enemy players (was 3 additional overloads).

Druid

• Balance
• Celestial Alignment increases damage of your spells by 10% when engaged in combat with enemy players (was 15%).
• Incarnation: Chosen of Elune increases damage of your spells by 18% when engaged in combat with enemy players (was 25%).
• Shooting Stars now generates 2 Astral Power when engaged in combat with enemy players (was 4 Astral Power).

Our goal is to get these adjustments made before the weekend, and when they go live, we’ll confirm here in this thread, on @Warcraftdevs, and in the next updated to our Hotfixes blog post.

The changes above were all taken live a few minutes ago.
