I mean a lot of changes likely going to be dependant upon them doing something with GWF, and they likely very resistant to changing it that much even with them in a very dominant position.
But hopefully it will be enough to allow them to do something to make Wizard's being a little better, or at least more desired for end game content again.
I just had a deceptively simple idea for improving SS damage. For MoFs, Smolder isn't a passive, it's a core class feature. The devs have expressed concern about a passive (Storm Spell) being responsible for so much damage. That's fine, make Storm Spell a core class feature for SS just like Smolder is for MoF! Could also just rename it to 'Shock'. Then replace the current Storm Spell passive with something that enhances 'Shock' in some way similar to what Combustive Action or Swath of Destruction does for Smolder. This would free up an extra passive slot, allowing us to slot something else like that replacement passive, Arcane Presence, Evocation, etc. on top of what we currently already do.
OK seems they redid many changes to several classes - so there is considerable things to REVIEW now - and how it relates to overall Class balance or how it will at least effect Wizard's. There may have actually been FAR more changes that many had even suspected, even the Trapper with the Serpent changes goal was to better BUFF, damage for classes who change stances often, and yes even Warlock's got some changes as did all classes. Some positive, others may be a little less popular, but hopefully in time it will, result in more balanced classes:
So suggest everyone at least READ through all the proposed changes though they may change based on FEEDBACK provided to those thread's on PREVIEW above.

So much to REVIEW though...
