- Lightning Strikes now cannot hit the same target more than once every 0.5 seconds.
Developer’s Note:Cataclysm was previously updated to be guaranteed to hit an enemy with its lightning strikes, if one is in range. While this felt better to use, it turned out to be a bit overpowered. Now we’re limiting how frequently Cataclysm’s lightning strikes can repeatedly hit the same target to ensure that other Ultimate Skills can still be a competitive option in single target situations. The damage of the lightning strikes is being increased to compensate.

- Overpower damage bonus increased from 30%[x] to 45%[x].
Developer’s Note:Ursine Strength is one of the most popular Key Passives for Druids, and was designed with Werebear and or Overpower focused builds in mind. However, it is often being used in builds that have little interest in Werebear Skills or Overpower effects, because the 30%[x] Damage bonus while Healthy was generically powerful. We are reducing the power of this effect, while increasing the Maximum Health and Overpower damage bonuses to better support its Werebear and Overpower niche, versus other builds that it was not intended for.
