Together, these two changes will go a long way toward making cheap power level mages competitive in
cheap power level. Of course, this brings up a lot of very interesting questions, lorewise.
Even more tweaks to the warlock talent builds made it onto the cheap power level build yesterday. This time we see more buffs for pets. The Imp, the destruction lock's pet of choice, will now benefit from the Ruin critical strike damage bonus. So instead of having its critical Firebolt hits doing
cheap power level of normal damage this will now be 200%. This will work out as a 10 to 15% damage increase for the imp. Since the Imp accounts for a little under cheap power level of a destruction lock's damage I think this should be a straight buff of just over 1%. Frozen Core now also causes your I cheap power level criticals to reduce the cast time of your next Frostbolt or Frostfire Bolt by cheap power level seconds. This, my friends, is potentially massive.
Along with the Water Elemental glyph change below, this is a very big step along the path toward making Frost a raid-viable
cheap power level. We've asked for this kind of thing for an entire expansion, and Blizzard kept promising they were looking into the issue.
