Twisting Wind

Unread postby Biowned Fri Sep 23, 2016 1:40 am

I'm not sure if it's working as intended but it's kinda useless right now.

This is a 2 minute, single target, dummy fight in which I just spammed Scorch.

As you can see, it did 67.4k damage in 2 minutes. It was doing no damage on boss fights either, since it's radius it's stupidly large.
IMO, it should do what is says it does: Create a cyclone on the target's location for 10s, not around it.

Yep, I simmed it and it shows 8.3% of damage there. It was only 2.40% of my damage on heroic Ursoc kill.

I guess Sim assumes every cyclone tick is a hit. Which is totally wrong since most won't hit.

The trinket has been nerfed since IT was simmed as bis (did 37k dmg pre nerf, now IT Deals 13k dmg per Tick). So i think its shit now.... (sry for my English :p)

Well if you apply some logic you can probably assume it aint "nerfed" but clearly not WAI, I mean do you really think they'd make a trinket worse than the 800 crap you can pull off world quests :rolleyes:

Yes, it has been nerfed. It just hasn't shown up in tooltips yet. As confirmed by a Blizz dev in my guild.

So do you think a 830 simple world trinket with Int, Crit and a Socket is now better than the Wind Trinket ?
Such a bullshit. I thought Im lucky and now nothing :(

Any 825+ trinket with crit is better than Twisting Wind.

I'm not sure I understand the reasoning for making a very good trinket completely useless :(. My 865 Twisting Wind is doing significantly less damage in all encounters than my 840 shock baton... I was excited when I got it... but now it just makes me sad and I'm likely to just bank it until it gets buffed again.

Why would they make an easily-accessible world quest trinket so much better than one from a heroic raid boss?
