COMBAT TUNING
Developers’ notes: As Midnight transitions into beta, tuning will quickly start happening at a much more rapid pace. We are working to get things into a better tuned state to ensure quality playtesting and feedback from both internal and external sources. This tuning will come in various stages and won’t all happen at once, but a few notable changes are happening that feel worth discussing slightly more:
Several classes will see some generic increases or decreases to their overall throughput amounts. Most of this right now is to coincide with “zeroing out” some passive modifiers attached to the class or spec that was adjusting their throughput. Rather than continue to tweak this number up and down, most of them have been set to zero. In some cases, we adjusted the spec’s tuning up or down to compensate for the change. In other cases, we felt it was ok to not adjust the spec’s throughput and just return the values to zero.
Melee classes are starting to see an increase to their auto-attack damage dealt either in this week’s update or in the coming week’s updates. Auto-attacking is a part of melee characters, and we want to make sure that an appropriate amount of damage is being attributed to your auto-attacks while engaged in combat.
All healers had a 20% increase to their damage dealt this week. We are monitoring the rate at which they can complete content while solo and felt that a boost to their offensive throughput would be appropriate.
NEW ACCESSIBILITY FEATURE: COMBAT AUDIO ALERTS
Combat audio alerts have been added for reading your target’s name and announcing when your target dies, when combat starts, and when combat ends.
Transmog is disabled for the week.
Next Week: Limited Raid Testing
Updated Transmog System

Addons should not be able to automate combat decisions for the player.
Addons should retain their ability to customize how information is presented to the player.
Team 2’s post speaks briefly about a focus on accessibility.
Text-to-Speech support or other audio alerts
Examples of the ability to announce when combat begins and ends, to announce your health and resources at regular intervals, to play sounds when you gain or lose a secondary resource (e.g., combo points), to announce your target’s name and health, and more.
Healing and Raid Frames
New display for
Major defensives (or similar ability)
Role specific debuffs (ie: tank swaps)
