Blizzard poster Tseric alerts shaman to a bug that will be fixed. The bug is causing more damage than intended.
I always know how to break the news, cause I rarely candy-coat.
Down ranking Windfury on two weapons to gain separate cool downs is a bug with a fix incoming. This means down-ranking on different weapons will no longer stagger cool downs. The devs want this bug resolved, as it has been a primary source of unintended Enhancement DPS, which they have seen as excessive. Enhancement DPS has been high in many situations and this is something they want to tone down. When this change goes live, it will lend itself to that end, rather than the devs having to look for direct changes to Enh. DPS. Good chance they will still be watching this aspect of Shaman after the bug fix is implemented.
While I may be sorry to say as much, there you have it.
