Resto Druid nerf in the next patch

[Giller]

"# Lifebloom: When this ability is refreshed it will take on the strength of the incoming Lifebloom effect, rather than maintain the existing strength."

Druids know what this means

i dont, before could u just like pop a lot of trinkets and keep super HOTs up or somthing?

[Justin(spec!aL.K+)]

Meaning we burn a lot more mana to keep lifebloom up. Basically we can stack it up to 3 times which does roughly 700hp per second, which i'll admit is WAYYYY OP. So what this nerf is doing is making it so we cant have a constant 3 stacks instead the end big heal will happen no matter what. So priest, shammys, and pallys can now outheal us with ease.

Not to mention I'm probably going to end up quitting the game. =/ Not because of this nerf although this does push me further to quitting. I enjoy playing CoD more than I ever enjoyed WoW so I think I'm probably just going to retire my druid and mage, and just play CoD in the small amounts of time i have to play games. Plus I'm becoming increasingly interested in cars so I think thats going to take over my video game obsession. =] So we'll see what happens. Just lettin ya know.

Are you sure that's the explanation?  The way I read it, is that you can no longer trinket before the first lifebloom, and then maintain the trinketed lifebloom strength for as long as you can refresh it without the final bloom occurring.  Are there additional notes on this change that support your explanation, Doomyy?

[Justin(spec!aL.K+)]

Well judging by what Giller put in, thats the explanation I got. However, if your explanation turns out to be correct I would express a HUGE sigh of relief lol. I'll check it out a little more when I get some time.

[Giller]

Cud's got it right.  I'm not so good at it, but it means a difference of over 100 health per second on my Lifeblooms when I'm Resto I think.

Thats to bad doomy 

[Justin(spec!aL.K+)]

Eh I'll still outheal people =]

[Sec (Cud)]

You should. =) Druid healing is right where it needs to be right now, and that's a good thing.
