Can you please post a screenshot of Boon. I have this horrible feeling the asshats removed our power transfer.

I could have seriously cared less about the hate component on that spell, and only ever really used it for the extra power.

they took the power off....but seriously 30 power every 4 seconds wasnt worth it

this is with 3 AA points in the warlock tree for boon trigger chance
Also the TSO points increase the dehate the spell does. 4% each point it increases it by.

It probably is meant to be a self-only buff.

Xede · 01-08-2009, 10:25 AM

thats what im thinking they just didnt change it...unless they want to give us "utility" that people were bitching about and give us that.

Pinski · 01-08-2009, 10:37 AM

Nah, because the Wizard one is self only, and also includes a hate decrease. They just did the changes, looked more at the Wizard one, then tossed the Warlock one together and forgot to make changes.

So the wiz one is straight less hate gain, and the warlock one is a proc? Maybe they figured that warlocks would be benefiting more from the lowered encounter hate as well.

Wait: 6.7 times a minute? that's every fucking spell isn't it?

No, the Wizard one is BOTH, the Warlock one is only a proc. And 6.7/minute isn't anywhere near every spell.

the amends change will only affect you if your grping with sucks. palies have be surviving on the crutch that is amends for a long time. now they're going to actually have to learn their class. it does kind of suck tho cuz before u could grab a shitty pu paly and never have to worry bout aggro lol.

on the power proc i dont see how u ever have power issues in any fight lol. Erling always has his xfer/proc on our mt and i put mine on whatever fight i see in raid thats not that bc it really doesn't matter other then offtanking for adds then i'll do it in hopes i'll die less.

Since the TSO updates and "nerfs" to guardians, my guild has been using the 9% hate transfer for sorcerers and it seems to help a lot - better aggro for the MT and offtank (when split tanking) and more aggro dumped from the wizzie and me.

It will be interesting to see how the changes work out. Good to see the drop of the extra encounter aggro. Well, except for those that have been warlock tanking :P I wouldn't mind being able to put the new boon on others, just as long as I can self buff with it. Might actually allow me to move some AAs around (certainly will be able to drop the TSO boon points for something else).

im fairly certain it will be self buff only just like the wizards one. Cause you can tell they didnt really change the description of the spell so they probably forgot to change the buff to self only.
