Any update on progress? This seriously hurts.



We have lost Type-3s for DoTs, which is aprox 7-10% damage.

We have lost Tribute Affliction Haste, which cuts further into DPS and is remarkably annoying having cast times increased. It impacts our survivability / agro management in all aspects of game play.

We have lost Tribute Afflicition Efficiency, which resulted in 25% increase to mana costs.

Since nerfing necro's to heck and back (and to a lesser extent, shaman, sk, druids) is obviously not worthy of an emergancy patch - we will be stuck until next regular patch day next month. I'd at least like to know if the fix will actually make it on the next patch day? Or will the fix turn into a "feature" of Underfoot?
no matter what, it will take a full server down patch for the fix to go in.

The Tribute Afflicition Efficiency is in the hands of code, because there were no design changes on that item. (though the Type 3 issue is a code change, it was design lead, and can be fixed in design.)

I do not know the status though.
