Living Bomb question

[Ogre]

Okay, I just noticed this but isn't in patch notes so far. Is Living Bomb no cost suddenly? Noticed on Wowhead and WoWDB they don't list a mana cost or percentage anymore. That'd be amazing. =O

[Faabio]

seems fair?

pst blizzard we have a problem.


::blizzard:: working as intended

[YoursTruly]

thats the way i love it! HOLY PALA's FOR EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ideon]

isnt living bomb a mage spell? -.- holy pala forever wtf? seems kinda wierd that rogues opened this subject as well :p

[Faabio]

well we could have alts :D
i have 4 70's none of which are mages... but my mage is 65 :D hes close enough lol

and i belive its ret palas ftw lol
that and rogues :DD

[Ideon]

i just meant i dont see the point in saying "holy palas ftw!!" in a "oh noes, mages can use their JIHAAAD! ability without mana cost (or dieing for that matter)"...it's just like those stupid kids that make a lvl 1 char, go to ironforge and start spamming "horde ftw, alliance sucks" which is kinda tru too...

but i have to agree, ret palas ftw!1 :p

[Faabio]

haha and i the way i understood the spell is you put it on someone else...
or am i just retarded
this is a complete possibility so i wont take offence to it lol
i thought you casted it on someone and if they dispell it or whatever it blew up

::edit:: unless they want to make mages teh jihadz

[Ideon]

that's called unstable affliction :D

[Faabio]

so am i just retarded?

[Swiftfeet]

U cast the spell on someone else ye, its a dot which thorws people up un the air on damage

[Kamisai]

good! shamans get almost the same thing but theirs gives them mana back and a farther knock back, about time they made this tallent worth the point.

Look at the top and still is 31% of basemana:(

Yeah, both sites seems to have fixed it now, returning it to epic crapiness. And yes, a rogue asked, not like we don't have multiple characters. =p (plus new rogue changes are mostly uninteresting)

on the ptr a pve muti rogue throws me a cheap shot and a kidney shot, and by the time kidney shot is gone my ret pally is dead...
dont tell me that is uninteresting ;)

[Ogre]

Yeah, but that's Mut, it's not new. The 51pt talents are mostly awful. Killing Spree is cool in theory, but actually isn't that great for a 51pt talent, since Combat uses a fast offhand, making the OH section of the attacks kinda meh.

Don't get me wrong, I'm gonna spec my rogue to Mut now, but anything that showed promise of awesome got removed/nerfed, ie: Deadly Brew.

[edit] Did some more thinking, and maybe I'm just looking at the spell the wrong way. It's higher base dmg with a shorter DOT duration than any warlock DOT, and instant cast. Maybe the AE is just meant to be secondary use. The only problem I see is the mana cost is exceptionally high when you do compare it to warlock spells, which average 11-14% base mana, and Living Bomb is 31%; more than double.
