  • Level 20

      • Additional functionality: If Holy Word: Salvation lasts for its full duration, then reduce its cooldown by 60 seconds.
    • Desperate Prayer [Active]
      • Cooldown reduced from 40 to 30 seconds.

Developer Comment: We're experimenting with a change to Light of Stormwind to allow for Anduin to have higher highs when using Holy Word: Salvation to its full potential. When he gets a full cast off he will now have a greatly reduced cooldown, allowing it to be used multiple times in a single fight.

Developer Comment: Anduin is in a good place overall, with great talent diversity and a fun base kit. However, he isn't quite measuring up to other Healers when it comes to his overall performance, so we're simply increasing his power to bring him up to par.

2020-06-23 Patch Notes

  • Anduin's Light of Stormwind now correctly removes damage over time effects.

Developer Comment: Anduin's Level 13 talents are a little too similar, so we're adding reasons for players who choose one talent over the other outside of how they want to gain Movement Speed.

2020-03-11 Balance Update

Developer Comment: While decently popular, from a win rate perspective Anduin has been underperforming compared to other Healers, so we're giving him some buffs largely to underperforming talents to help him out.

      • Cooldown reduction per Hero hit with Divine Star reduced from 10 to 8 seconds
    • Lightwell [Active]
      • Cooldown increased from 70 to 80 seconds

Developer Comment: Anduin's Light is bringing victory! Just about 48% of the time, which is great for a new Hero release. What we're aiming to do though is buff up a lot of the lesser chosen Talents on him so that he feels like he has a greater variety of options. We're also looking to make Bold Strategy a little more bold, and a little less automatic. We're aiming to do this by reducing his higher than typical Mana tension baseline (which Bold Strategy helped alleviated by increasing Flash Heal's cooldown and making his healing more efficient), while also increasing the cooldown penalty for Bold Strategy. This is in addition to buffing up the other two Talents on the tier, which also buffs Bold Strategy. Net result is that Pursued by Grace and Renew will give Anduin a little more consistent healing, and potentially open up synergy with the significantly buffed Binding Heal at level 7.
