A recent hotfix for World of Warcraft’s Legion Remix cranked up the potency of artifact traits for damage and healing specializations. Blizzard pushed changes on the official forums that raise overall trait benefits and tweak several individual artifacts. At a glance: damage and healer specs receive a blanket +20% to damage and healing from artifact traits, with individual trait adjustments ranging from straightforward boosts to mixed changes for more complicated effects.
This follows Blizzard’s broader Remix tuning plans and lines up with the company’s earlier announcements about buffing DPS and healers in the next Remix phase. Read more about those adjustments in our coverage of Remix Phase 2.
