A Dracthyr evoker who will get big buffs in the upcoming round of PvE changes

Blizzard continues to regularly update the class balance in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight, and the latest round of PvE changes includes several significant buffs across multiple classes.

The March 12 PvP changes will bring about some significant nerfs, particularly for Demon Hunters, but most classes seem to have escaped that fate in these PvE alterations. Preservation Evoker is undoubtedly the big winner, getting a series of significant buffs that bring it more in line with other Healer specs.

Frost Mages get some nice boosts to important parts of their toolkit. Specifically, both Frostbolt and Ice Lance increase their damage by 10% and 5%, respectively. Marksmanship and Survival Hunter get general damage buffs for both player and pet.

Here’s everything you need to know about the tuning changes for March 12.

Complete list of WoW PvE changes for March 12

The full list of PvE buffs, nerfs and everything in between is as follows:

Druid

  • Restoration
    • Rejuvenation healing increased by 12%. Does not affect PvP combat.

Evoker

  • Preservation
  • Developers’ notes: Preservation has been underutilized lately, in part due to the range restrictions of the specialization. To help compensate for that, we’re increasing the healing and defensiveness of Preservation so they can traverse the battlefield more easily and safely.
    • Time of Need clone’s overall healing increased by 100%. Time of Need clone’s Living Flame healing increased by 16%.
    • Live-Giver’s Flame heals for 40/80% of damage done (was 35/70%).
    • Inherent Resistance reduces magic damage taken by 4/8% (was 2/4%) for Preservation Evoker.
    • Attuned to the Dream increases healing done and received by 3/6% (was 2/4%) for Preservation Evoker.
