World of Warcraft: patch 2.4 drinking nerf

Forum > World of Warcraft

patch 2.4 drinking nerf

Well its seems this got missed form patch notes but according to some people in PTR drinking has been modified to abolish the use of 5sec drinking in arena.
Now drinking mana regen scales up in each tick regenerating very little or nearly nothing( 50 mana first tick, 100 second tick 200 tird tick..)to finish up regenerating its full mana at the longr ticks of the 30 secs drinking process.
Well this is a huge"nerf" for arena healing that dont know why has been miseed in patch notes.
According to game riot has been confirmed by blue although dont know if its right because gosey hasent mention it yet XD

druids? bye bye all other healers BUT druids..
it actually sounds like another huge advantage for them couse theyre basically the only healers who can drink such a long time, especially when nightelf stealthed

if they actually can drink more than 10 secs yeah it benefits them, but then the opponents dps isnt top notch, it benefits in my opinion more mana eficiency and with more mp5 healing classes druids normally stack hots and drink max 8 secs or something ,even though doing that their mana normally goes down at the same speed as prist/palas, so without that advantaje druid will get oom more often

yeah its huge right now i think its a little bit bugged in ptr but when working as intended.. maybe we can see lots of changes in arena( mainly in 2vs2) after 2.4

its a very good thing, some games are rly ridiculus at the moment. i lost one game a few days ago becouse i run out of water before the enemy healer ( i "only" had three stacks aka 60 water.... )
