WoW mages question patch notes to 2.1.0 - Image 1Over at the official community site of World of Warcraft (WoW), players are asking Blizzard for some clarifications regarding the notes on Patch 2.1.0 that went live on the Public Test Realms (PTR) a couple of days ago. It involves the Mages and the entry saying, "Frostbite effect is now subject to diminishing returns in PvP."

According to some users, this is highly inaccurate. Player Spenglbeiser note that in actuality, Frostbite shares these diminishing returns with both Frost Nova and Water Elemental's Freeze. The patch note didn't imply by any means that the effects of Frostbite will be connected by the other two.

Most readers agreed with the observation and are clamoring for explanations. After speculating among themselves, Blizzard's Tseric finally noticed and posted:

The current plan is to change the effect so that Frostbite only has diminishing returns with itself, not with other frost spells. Don't have exact details on the functionality, but the core issue is known and being addressed.


A couple of days ago, we reported that Patch 2.1.0 has indeed some undocumented changes and fans don't appreciate this, at the very least. On the other hand, Blizzard insisted that these notes are not the "end-all and be-all" of things because of the fact that they are running on test realms.
