PvP hotfixes for December 11th

Whether you'll be pleased or disappointed by today's PvP hotfixes -- which Nethaera says are coming soon -- likely depends on which class you play. Balance druids, discipline priests, retribution paladins, enhancement shaman, and warriors are all getting tweaks (or, as some might say, nerfs). The exact changes are below.

• Starfall damage against players is now reduced by 33%.

• PvP set bonus that grants a charge of Starsurge when Entangling Roots breaks now has a 15 second cooldown.

• Silence now has a 2 second duration (Shadow Silence is unaffected).

• The PvP 2 set piece bonus now grants 25% reduction in crowd control effects (down from 50%).

• Glyph of Shield Slam now requires defensive stance.
