Ghostcrawler on Party-wide versus Raid-wide buffs Quote from: Ghostcrawler (Source)
There are a few buffs that are still party-wide and not raid. Typically these are spells which would have felt really lame with the lower numbers needed to justify them going wow gold. Vampiric Embrace is another example.
Thanks Lhivera and others. That is a very clear explanation.
Of course if we also made Fingers of Frost (or Ice Lance) better rogue lockpicking wow gold , then we're just going to rogue builds talent have problems with Frost in PvP.
Frost's PvE dps is very good right now -- if rogue buy wow gold anything it's a little closer to Fire than we predicted. If Frost starts to fall off for any reason, that would be a good opportunity to revisit FoF to see if we can get more of the behavior you're describing, because ultimately I agree it would be cool to see more PvE Ice Lances.
If you have good suggestions though on how to preserve Frost's PvE dps without making it wow gold guide OP in PvP and without having to change a whole bunch of spells, please share them.
In order to get the same effect from Fingers of Frost as from actual frozen targets, we would have to set up the spell the same way as freezing, so that you could sneak that Ice Lance in between Frostbolts. Right now you get 2 big hits from Fingers of Frost, which you rightly want to spend on Frostbolt. If we changed Fingers of Frost so that Frostbolt always broke it, then you would want to get that Ice Lance in there, but your overall dps would go down. We'd need to compensate Frost some other way for that nerf, and it's the kind of thing that might not be popular with the mage community because we'd be nerfing Fingers of Frost's damage potential in order to force you into using Ice Lance all in the name of more interesting rotations. (Obviously we're not that nervous about making unpopular changes when we think they are warranted, and overall encouraging players to use different kinds of cheap wow gold rogue spells is a good thing.)
