limit-reached limit-reached
We will be implementing a hotfix this evening that temporarily removes the Warlock Imp’s spell damage coefficient as it was performing far in excess of our intention. This will remove any spell damage bonuses from improving the Imp’s attacks. We are currently on schedule to be implementing the correct values with the next patch. While we are able to effectively block the spell damage bonus with a hotfix it will require a client side patch to input the intended spell damage bonus the Imp is receiving.


so it is, so it's always been

I think the imps dps was getting a bit out of hand.

What I don't understand is why this required a hotfix rather than just waiting till the next cycle.

I'm all for Epic travel form. Also, they should get 2-way portals, the ability to wear plate, stronger ranged attacks involving lasers, mind control and a 200% speed increase in caster form.

because demonology warlocks with "the black book" used their imps that don't die in 1 hit and don't run out of mana after 10 fireballs were solo'ing 40 man raid bosses.

Anything else we should know about?

Like will DOTs be removed from the game next patch?
Will Affliction be deleted in the next patch?
Will Warlocks be turned into Mages who use black frost bolts next patc?

A little input on things like Shadow Embrace, Malediction, Improved Drain Soul, Improved Curse of Weakness, Seed of Corruption, Unstable Affliction would be nice...

Oh yeah, I remember that. I really should have picked up enchanting. Just ended up vendoring all that stuff.

T2 Chestpieces really don't sell for much. Oh well.

my imp doesnt leave transparent mode, but just a tip. You do not make something complete crap to fix it in the next patch. Leave it as is then fix it. Inexperience ftw.
