Yes, and we want to get the word out to players who might be counting on leveling through The War Within using first craft XP bonuses.

Season of Discovery

  • Druid
    • The Wild Strikes aura, which has been limited to the Druid’s party within 20 yards, is now raid-wide with a 100-yard radius.
      • Developers’ notes: For a time, the tooltip will still say that it is restricted to the party. We intend to correct that in the next major patch.

Before the launch of The War Within, we’re simplifying the Authority of Storms enchant to make it a more consistent option.

The damage will now occur immediately when the enchant activates, rather than granting you a buff which provides a window to trigger the damage multiple times.

We’ll update the tooltip in a future patch.

In order to improve accessibility to the Wild Strikes/Windfury Totem effect, the Wild Strikes aura, which has been limited to the Druid’s party within 20 yards, will become raid-wide with a 100 yard radius.

This change will occur during scheduled weekly maintenance in each region. (Tomorrow morning, August 20 in this region)

For a time, the tooltip will still say that it is restricted to the party. We intend to correct that in the next major patch.

Classes

  • Developers’ notes: To make our raid buffs more equal across varied group compositions, we’re reducing the effectiveness of Arcane Intellect and Chaos Brand from 5% to 3%. We feel this will help to improve the balance of caster heavy versus melee heavy groups when participating in non-raid content.
  • Demon Hunter
    • [With weekly maintenance] Chaos Brand reduced to 3% increased magic damage taken (was 5%).
  • Evoker
    • Preservation
      • Fixed an issue where Rank 2 of Renewing Breath was not increasing the heal over time portion of Dream Breath.
    • Mage
      • [With weekly maintenance] Arcane Intellect reduced to 3% Intellect increase (was 5%).
