Neirai the Forgiven
Christian Guilds List Manager
So... today, if you venture to the official Druid forums today, you'll find them in a tizzy.
Reason: Druids got nurfed, claim the posters. The Dire Bear Form spell was changed to have lower numbers than before. Now it reads:
Dire Bear Form (Shapeshift)
44% of Base Mana
Instant cast
Shapeshift into a dire bear, increasing melee attack power by 210, armor contribution from items by 450%, and health by 25%. Also protects the caster from Polymorph effects and allows the use of various bear abilities.
/sarcasm These numbers are significantly lower than the previous form, which was:
Dire Bear Form (Shapeshift)
55% of Base Mana
Instant cast
Shapeshift into a dire bear, increasing melee attack power by 120, armor contribution from items by 360%, and health by 600. Also protects the caster from Polymorph effects and allows the use of various bear abilities.
/sarcasm off
To silence the foo's, I've calculated out the following. At current state, the amount of health that +600 gives me is actually about 10%. That's an increase by 15%. That's a lot.
Current stats for Neirai (approx)
11000 armor
6000 HP
TBC stats for Neirai at 60 (approx)
calculating for talent points as well: 13750 armor
calculating for HotW as well: 6300 HP
so, it's not a nurf. If I hear nurf-whining here I may turn into an evil gnome and hug you ><
