Blizzard have shared this week's Rogue changes, as well as plans for future adjustments to Fatebound and Trickster Hero trees.
(Source)
Greetings Rogues,
This week’s Alpha build includes many changes to Class and Spec talent trees, including a handful of positional swaps, tuning changes, and a few new and redesigned talents.
Feedback about these changes is welcome, so please post here with any notable experiences or opinions from your play in the Alpha test.
More change will be coming over the next few weeks, focused primarily on hero talents. Deathstalker is still lurking in the shadows and will be revealed when it’s ready (sometime in the next few weeks).
For Fatebound, more completed talents will be rolling in over time, and we have also been following gameplay and written feedback which will be cause for iterations to existing talents.
For Trickster, we’ve been following all of your feedback, and it has generated significant internal discussion. While the core pieces will remain in place (Unseen Blade, the Fazed debuff, and a grand finish in Coup de Grace), we expect to revisit the gameplay that fuels this engine, and most notably move away from Feint being a primary applicator of Unseen Blade. Unexpected randomly-timed procs of Unseen Blade have also proven to cause trouble and are being similarly reconsidered, in addition to minor updates for other talents.
Thank you to those who have played the Alpha and spent the time to share experiences and opinions so far. Keep it coming!
And here are this week's changes:

ROGUE New Talent: Shadowheart – Leech increased by 3% while Stealthed. Acrobatic Strikes has been redesigned – Auto-attacks increase auto-attack damage and movement speed by 1% for 3 seconds, stacking up to 10%. Developer’s note: Acrobatic Strikes no longer increases the range of melee attacks. We are revisiting increased melee range talents across the game, and most are being removed. Default melee range has increased since these talents were originally created, allowing specs with increased range to attack from well outside where it appears they should be able to. Cut to the Chase moved from Assassination talent tree to baseline all specs, triggering from Envenom/Dispatch/Eviscerate. Vanish’s guaranteed stealth duration now 1.5 seconds in PvP combat (base 3 seconds). Tight Spender now reduces Energy cost of finishing moves by 6% (was 10%). Subterfuge is now a 2-point talent, effect duration 3/6 seconds. Some talents have moved locations. Without a Trace moved from Subtlety to Class tree in capstone location, replacing Shadow Dance. Nightstalker has been removed. Assassination New Talent: Rapid Injection – Envenom deals 10% increased damage while Envenom’s effect is active. Serrated Bone Spike has been redesigned – (Passive) Prepare a Serrated Bone Spike every 30 seconds, stacking up to 3. Rupture spends a stack to embed a bone spike in its target: Deals Physical damage and Bleed damage every 3 seconds until the target dies or leaves combat. Refunds a stack when the target dies. Generates 1 combo point plus 1 additional per active bone spike. Serrated Bone Spike initial damage reduced by 24% and damage over time damage reduced by 9%. Improved Garrote effect duration increased to 6 seconds (was 3 seconds). Indiscriminate Carnage effect duration reduced to 6 seconds (was 10 seconds). Kingsbane damage bonus per poison application now has a stated cap at 1000% from 50 stacks (was 1980% at 99 stacks). Kingsbane base damage over time increased by 6%. Developer’s note: Kingsbane was originally intended to be uncapped, but abilities and talents introduced in the Dragonflight expansion allowed players to reach its previously-unreachable hidden cap. Increasing or removing the cap in the current environment would reinforce poor gameplay outcomes and continue to constrain talent options, so a lower cap is being introduced with the intention of having Kingsbane remain a valuable component of any build that includes it, but not by being required as every build’s all-important main character. Sepsis has been removed. Outlaw Ace Up Your Sleeve now grants 4 combo points when triggered (was 5). Mastery: Main Gauche damage increased by 24%. Adrenaline Rush has been updated: No longer increases global cooldown recovery rate by 25% while active. Now increases global cooldown recovery rate equal to your Haste while active, up to 25%. Now increases Energy regeneration by 50% (was 60%). Count the Odds effect now has base chance 10% (was 8%) and duration 8 seconds (was 5 seconds), but no longer doubled while Stealthed. Underhanded Upper Hand no longer affects Slice and Dice duration and no longer grants 3 seconds of Subterfuge duration (Stealth ability use). Crackshot’s Dispatch effectiveness reduced to 50% (was 75%). Thief’s Versatility now increases Versatility by 3% (was 4%). Some talents have moved locations. Sepsis has been removed. Subtlety Premeditation has been redesigned – After entering Stealth, your next combo point generating ability generates full combo points. Invigorating Shadowdust now reduces cooldowns by 10/20 seconds (was 15/30 seconds). Shadow Dance moved from the Class talent tree to Subtlety talent tree. Shadow Focus now reduces costs by 5%. Some talents have moved locations. -

Creating Your New Identity
Create a new modern World of Warcraft character to undertake your adventures in Pandaria, collect a variety of powerful new items and transmogs, then take your transmogs with you when you continue your adventures in World of Warcraft®:The War Within™. All Remix characters created during the event will convert to a standard character to play within modern World of Warcraft at the end of the event.
From the realm Character Selection screen, players will be given the option to create a new World of Warcraft Remix character, beginning at level 10, which will only be able to play with characters taking part in the event.
Characters in the selection screen which are only available to play in the World of Warcraft Remix event will have an icon next to the character name so they can easily be identified when choosing which mode of World of Warcraft you intend to play through.
Once you’ve created your character, you’ll begin your new journey in the Timeless Isle and meet up with the infinite dragonflight and Eternus who will set you on your path.
New Loot, New You
In World of Warcraft Remix, players have the opportunity to collect a variety of items from just about anywhere: quests, chests, creatures, bosses, and more. New customizable items will be yours for the taking and each item slot has their own unique identity with spell gem sockets. These sockets come with exciting turbo-charged new effects similar to trinkets.
Each time you loot new items, you’ll have the chance for powerful new upgrades allowing you to push the limits further and faster than ever before with uncapped progression. As you progress, you’ll gradually become more and more powerful as items also grant increased permanent stats.
Don’t worry if you slot a gem into a slot and want to remove it, you’ll be able to add and remove gems easily. You’ll also be able to use Unraveling Sands to transform unwanted items to bronze.
You’ll find a few different types of gems to slot into your gear as you adventure through Pandaria including Meta Gems, Tinker Gems, and Cogwheel Gems. Here are a few examples of what you could find:
Cloak of Infinite Potential
You’ll also be able to earn an Artifact cloak that gains permanent power increases as you play when you loot various threads of time. Infinite Power achievements you earn on your strongest character will grant alternate characters a more powerful starting cloak — making leveling even faster!
Earn titles, a variety of transmogs, previously unreleased color variants of older mounts, and more simply by completing World of Warcraft Remix: Mists of Pandaria specific achievements during the Remix event. These achievements will become Feats of Strength when the event ends.
August Phoenix
Astral Emperor's Serpent
Players will also be able to ride their dragonriding mounts throughout Pandaria and if you haven’t learned this skill yet, don’t worry, trainers are standing by.
Welcome to a New Bronze Age
There’s no such thing as a bad drop and any drop you get can be converted into a new currency— Bronze. You’ll be able to use this currency to purchase upgrades and World of Warcraft account-bound cosmetics.
Head to a bazaar in any zone to purchase everything from class transmogs, to Mists of Pandaria mounts, toys, and more. This allows players to purchase items that were previously unable to obtain or difficult to obtain as random drops by simply spending this new currency to add them to their account’s collection.

Today's War Within Alpha build focuses on the overhaul of the Destruction Warlock tree, aimed at simplifying talent choice and improving underutilized abiltiies.
The developers wanted to reduce fluctuation in power, enhance underutilized talents, and simplify decision-making within the talent trees with the latest Destruction tree update.
Some highlights:
Chaos Bolt is now baseline for Destruction Warlocks. Avatar of Destruction has been removed. Decimating Bolt is reintroduced to boost the power of your rotational spells. Underutilized talents like Soulfire and Cataclysm have been improved to increase their viability. (Source)
Today’s Alpha update focuses primarily on Destruction.
The Path Ahead
Before we dive in, we want to acknowledge that our work with each specialization tree is not complete. We’ve seen the recent discussions regarding how bloated the Demonology and Destruction tree are in terms of available talents and ranks, as well as thoughts on the pathing of the Affliction tree.
In the near future, you will see that the Demonology tree is being restructured and condensed. Both the Destruction tree and the Affliction tree will also undergo a restructuring in the near future. In this context, a restructuring means that: the amount of 2-rank talent nodes will be reduced, talents may be removed, talents may be added, new pathing will be added, and talent nodes may be moved.
Destruction Update
Here are our stated goals, with the addition of a new goal, for Destruction moving into the War Within:
Reduce the fluctuation in throughput in relation to the number of targets in combat. Improve underused talents such as Soulfire and Cataclysm. Condense the number of talents and talent ranks available. Beginning with our general changes, we are moving Chaos Bolt to be baseline. This is mainly to provide a Soul Shard spender once your specialization is chosen. We are also removing Chaosbringer but plan to provide additional tuning to Chaos Bolt, Rain of Fire, and Shadowburn baseline to ensure their power remains relatively the same.
Avatar of Destruction
We are removing Avatar of Destruction for a couple of reasons. First and foremost, we want to highlight Summon Infernal as a powerful moment and Avatar of Destruction lessens that by increasing the cadence in which an Infernal is present.
Secondly, Avatar of Destruction provides Destruction warlocks with a powerful, multi-target stun on a frequent basis. We could remove the stun, but we want to stay in line with our philosophy that when a player sees a demon there’s an understanding of what function that demon provides.
To replace Avatar of Destruction, we want to try bringing back Decimating Bolt as it fits the fantasy of a Destruction warlock well and provides more power to your rotational spells. We plan to iterate on this decision based on feedback we see from the community.
Inferno
We have redesigned Inferno to reduce how much throughput fluctuates based on the number of enemies present during an encounter. This will allow us to tune Destruction in all situations, regardless of the number of targets available. Additionally, this allows us to tune this talent to be a competitive option against Cataclysm rather than have it remain the correct choice.
Soulfire, Shadowburn, Channel Demonfire
We want to make each of these spells more appealing. In this build, you’ll see a redesign of Decimation as an experiment to accomplish this for Soulfire however we plan to expand more on this as well as Shadowburn and Channel Demonfire with the restructuring of the Destruction tree, mentioned earlier in this post. Stay tuned for future updates as we work to address this goal.
Thank you for the discussions thus far. We appreciate the continued feedback!
You will find all the changes that went live for Warlocks this week linked below.

WARLOCK Hellcaller Seeds of Their Demise has been redesigned – Blackened Soul damage increased by 30%. When Blackened Soul deals damage, you have a chance to gain Ritual of Ruin/Tormented Crescendo. Malevolence, Wither, and Seeds of Their Demise icons have been updated. Demonology You now have a 35% chance (was 100% chance) to generate a Demonic Core from your summoned Dreadstalkers when they fade. Destruction New Talent: Devastation – Increases the Critical Strike chance of your Destruction spells by 5%. New Talent: Emberstorm – Increases the damage done by your Fire spells by 2/4% and reduces the cast time of your Incinerate spell by 10/20%.

Decimating Bolt’s damage, and the bonus to Incinerate both increase as your target’s health decreases. New Talent: Summoner’s Embrace – Increases the damage dealt by your spells and your demon by 3%. Ruin has been redesigned – Increases the Critical Strike damage of your Destruction spells by 5/10%. Inferno has been redesigned – Rain of Fire damage is increased by 20% and its Soul Shard cost is reduced by 1. Decimation has been redesigned – Your Incinerate and Conflagrate casts on targets that have 35% or less health reduces the cooldown of Soulfire by 5 seconds and reduce its cast time by 40% for 10 seconds. Chaos Incarnate has been redesigned – Chaos Bolt, Rain of Fire, and Shadowburn always gain 70% of the maximum benefit from your Mastery: Chaotic Energies. Chaos Bolt has been removed from the Destruction specialization tree and is now baseline. Conflagrate has been moved to row 1. Backdraft has been moved to row 2. Roaring Blaze and Improved Conflagrate have been moved to row 3. Ruin has been moved to row 9. The following talents have been removed: Avatar of Destruction Chaosbringer -

The latest Alpha build introduces significant changes to Death Knight's core and Unholy talent trees and here is what the devs had to say about the changes!
The core class tree has been restructured to provide damage abilities earlier, improving the leveling experience and offering more flexibility in talent choices.
The Unholy specialization has been streamlined to reduce the complexity of its rotation and cooldown management, making it less reliant on specific talent builds.
Epidemic and Outbreak are now baseline and Sudden Doom has been updated.
Here is what the devs had to say about the latest Death Knight changes.

Greetings, Death Knights.
This week’s alpha build has our first round of changes to both the core class tree and the Unholy spec tree. As stated in our initial messaging our goals for the core tree updates were to shift some of the damage throughput at the end of the talent tree to earlier in the tree. For Unholy our goal was to address some of the flood of resources, reduce the number of things that need to be tracked to play optimally, increase pathing as well as choice, and reduce the number of nodes you need to pick up to play the spec fluidly. We will go into a little more detail below for both the core and Unholy changes.
Core
The core tree has undergone a decent reshuffling of talent placement, node pathing, ability’s becoming baseline and talent rank reduction.
Due to the unique leveling experience Death Knights have and not starting from level 1, they had a reduced amount of abilities baseline and had to “buy back” several abilities that other classes and specs would have normally earned as they levelled. Heading into The War Within we are reassessing the stance on this for Death Knight not only for abilities they had to talent into in the core tree but also their spec trees. The hope here is by freeing up some of these talent points you had to spend to make a functional leveling experience you gain a few points that allow you to flex into more optional talents without locking you into one build.
We have also updated several pathing nodes and moved around a few nodes to better fit the new tree philosophy. Structurally the bottom of the tree no longer holds 9 throughput talents and they have been shifted to earlier in the tree and many of them have been reduced to 1 point. Again, allowing for more build variety and the ability to pick up situational talents when you might need.
We hope that the update to the core tree allows for more expression when building out your talents and not as if you are locked into one talent build with very wiggle room to pick talents reactively for the situation you are facing.
Unholy
The Unholy talent update focuses on reducing the number of talents that you had to pick to make the rotation function in a reasonably coherent way. This includes Epidemic and Outbreak baseline and addressing the number of ability cooldown reduction talents. Unholy suffered from having to choose multiple talents that reduced their cooldowns to align in a way that made sense from a gameplay standpoint. This made playing the spec any other way unreasonably convoluted especially if you were new to the spec and trying to learn to play the spec. We have removed any talent that had any sort of cooldown reduction to abilities and baked them baseline into the spec (this includes Army of the Dead which is now a 3-minute cooldown).
Secondly, we wanted to address Sudden Doom which has been feeling lackluster for awhile now. Most notably we’ve updated its proc functionality to be more consistent instead of using our RPPM system which is usually found on trinkets and other item procs. It now has a base 25% chance to proc with bad luck protection built in. The hope here is this feels more fluid and a normally occurring proc that fits well int your rotation instead of one that feels like you can go long periods of time without it. We are still noodling on the base percentage chance and values are subject to change, but we’ve found this to be a good starting point. We’ve also updated its functionality to cause your next Death Coil or Epidemic to crit to add a little extra punch to the proc. Alongside some talents that interacted with Sudden Doom and the new talent Doomed Bidding we hope that Sudden Doom feels much more impactful as a class proc.
We’ve also cut several talents that felt somewhat lackluster or just did very little for Unholy, most notably Feasting Strikes and Replenishing Wounds. We hope that with the reduced amount of must pick Cooldown talents, never picked “useless” talents, and new talent choices there are more appealing choices to be made within the tree that allow you customize in a way that fits your needs. Lastly, there are a couple talent nodes that have temporary “Not Yet Implemented” talents. We will be updating in the future build and eyeing talents that add a little more interaction with diseases in potentially exciting ways.
Thanks for your patience! We look forward to hearing your feedback on the above. Next up-- we’re working to get our planned Frost and Blood changes in.
And here are the specific adjustments made to the class, from the development notes:
(Source)
DEATH KNIGHT New Talent: Subduing Grasp – When you pull an enemy the damage they deal to you is reduced by 4% for 6 seconds. Located at Rune Mastery’s previous location. New Talent: Osmosis – Anti-Magic Shell increases healing received by 15/25%. Located at Unholy Bonds previous location. New Talent: Null Magic – Magic Damage taken is reduced by 15% and the duration of harmful Magic effects against you are reduced by 35%. New capstone choice node with Vestigial Shell replacing Soul Reaper. New Talent: Vestigial Shell – Casting Anti-Magic Shell grants 2 nearby allies a Lesser Anti-Magic Shell that absorbs magic damage and reduces the duration of harmful Magic effects against them by 50%. New capstone choice node with Null Magic replacing Soul Reaper. New Talent: Ice Prison – Chains of Ice now also roots enemies for 4 seconds but its cooldown is increased to 12 seconds. Available in gate 1 after Blinding Sleet. New Talent: Rune Protection – Your chance to be critically struck is reduced by 3% and your Armor is increased by 3/6%. Replaces Icy Talons old position within the tree. Chains of Ice is now granted baseline and learned at level 13. Anti-Magic Shell is now granted baseline and learned at level 14. Rune of the Stoneskin Gargoyle can now be Runeforged on 1-handed weapons. Rune of Hysteria has been removed. Developer’s note: Rune of Hysteria was a problematic design especially as it pertains to Breath of Sindragosa and the volatility of its uptime. We felt that for the overall health of the spec it would be best to remove Hysteria at this time to better enable us to meet our goals with the upcoming changes to Breath. Empower Rune Weapon has been removed. Developer’s note: This will still be available for Frost in their spec tree but both Blood and Unholy were often flooded with resources and a big unnecessary contributor to this was Empower Rune Weapon. To better dial in resources on Blood and Unholy we feel its best to keep Empower Rune Weapon for Frost only. Abomination Limb no longer grants Bone Shield, Runic Corruption, or Rime based on specialization. Developer’s note: In Shadowlands it was important for the spec hooks to exist to better balance between the other covenant ability choices. With its re-introduction in Dragonflight its added to the influx of resources/procs that can often come at inopportune times or add to the feeling of being unable to spend down the bonuses it grants. By removing this it allows the ability to “breathe” on its own and lean into its strength of AoE control and damage. Rune of the Apocalypse has been updated: War Effect Damage taken increased to 4% (was 1%). Duration increased to 10 seconds (was 6 seconds). Pestilence Effect Damage increased by 500%. Famine Effect Damage dealt to the caster reduced to 5% (was 2%). Death Effect Healing reduction increased to 5% (was 1%). Cleaving Strikes now also retains bonus effects for being within your Death and Decay for 4 seconds when leaving its area. Icebound Fortitude cooldown reduced by 60 seconds. Veteran of the Third War now grants 20% Stamina (was 10%). Now a 1-rank talent (was 2). Icy Talons Now increases attack speed per stack by 6% (was 3%). Now a 1-rank talent (was 2). Unholy Bond now increases effectiveness of Runeforge effects by 20% (was 10%). Now a 1-rank talent (was 2). Assimilation now reduces the cooldown of Anti-Magic Zone by 30 seconds. No longer increase Runic Power when absorbing damage. Suppression now grants an additional 6% damage reduction to area of effects when you suffer a loss of control effect. Moved to gate 3. Blood Scent Leech increased to 5%. Moved to gate 3. Blood Draw now also grants a buff reducing damage taken by 10% and reducing Death Strike cost by 10 for 8 seconds when falling below 30% health. Now a 1-rank talent. Moved to the left capstone position. Unholy Ground moved to gate 1 available after Cleaving Strikes. Sacrificial Pact is now a choice node with Enfeeble. Runic Attenuation moved to gate 1 available after Coldthirst. Soul Reaper moved to gate 2 available after Unholy Blond or Death’s Reach The following talents have been removed: Might of Thassarian Merciless Strikes Clenching Grasp Unholy New Talent: Doomed Bidding – Consuming Sudden Doom calls upon a Magus of the Dead to assist you for 8 seconds. Now a choice node with Summon Gargoyle. Ghoulish Frenzy is now available in the 2nd gate replacing Unholy Command. New Talent: Raise Abomination – Summons an Abomination to attack nearby enemies applying Festering Wound with its melee attacks and infecting all nearby enemies with Virulent Plague. 90 second cooldown. Replaces Army of the Dead. New Talent: Foul Infections – Your diseases deal 10% more damage and have a 5% increased chance to critically strike. New Talent: Menacing Magus – Your Magus of the Dead Shadow Bolt now fires a volley of Shadow Bolts at up to 4 nearby enemies. Epidemic is now granted baseline and learned at level 18. Outbreak is now granted baseline and learned at level 13. Sudden Doom is now learned in gate 1 directly after Scourge Strike and also causes your next Death Coil or Epidemic to critically strike Sudden Doom is no longer an RPPM proc and has instead been updated to have a 25% chance on auto-attacks to proc with build in bad luck protection to provide a more consistent proc. Army of the Dead cooldown reduced to 3 minutes (was 8 minutes). Apocalypse cooldown reduced to 45 seconds (was 90 seconds). Dark Transformation cooldown reduced to 45 seconds (was 60 seconds). Vile Contagion cooldown reduced to 45 seconds (was 90 seconds). Festermight now functions like Ironfur, allowing multiple instances to overlap. Ruptured Viscera is no longer a choice node with Magus of the Dead. Ebon Fever is no longer a choice node with Bursting Sores and is available directly after Bursting Sores. Updated to also affect Frost Fever and Blood Plague if Superstrain is talented. Unholy Blight moved to gate 1. The following talents have been removed: Replenishing Wounds Army of the Damned Unholy Command Feasting Strike
