BLIZZARD OCTOBER 1 NOTESOfficial

October 1 Beta changes for Priest

Official Beta announcement · Blizzard’s October 1 development notes

Shadow Word: Death no longer always receives the Early Demise bonus regardless of target health.

Discipline Inner Focus no longer adds critical strike chance to periodic effects; Shadow Weaving can no longer fail to apply.

Devouring Plague can now correctly critically strike.

The live Beta level cap is 30. The talent structure was reconciled through 1.60.1.70291; 21-point Level 30 routes are editorial allocations. Rank descriptions retain their separate community transcription evidence, and point-order rules remain derived assumptions.

Level 20 stages of the reviewed tree

Each route spends eleven points in the current reviewed tree. These are early stages, not the Level 30 endpoint. Choose the matching Level 20 calculator mode to inspect them.

Reviewed Priest snapshot: 53 visible nodes from Wago client build 1.60.1.70291, reconciled against Talents Forever. All 148 rank descriptions are adapted from Talents Forever (CC BY 4.0, https://talentsforever.com), with community verification. 1 exact off-grid duplicate record is excluded under the published membership review; visible membership is community-reviewed. The export resolves tooltip values at Level 60; it does not rescale them to the selected level or simulate damage. Level 30 examples spend 21 points; the existing Level 20 page uses eleven-point stages of this reviewed tree. One point per level from 10, five points per tier, full-rank prerequisites and the editorial point order remain derived planning assumptions. Original 69913 saves remain historical records and are not partially migrated into a changed allocation.
