Buff specs that are never played on blackrock

Many specs are simply not viable in PvP.

However, it would be very enjoyable to see some variety to this by buffing the most unpopular and non-viable specs.

In my humble opionen here are some of the specs. Perhaps the talent tree could be improved (or somehow buff these specs):

worst specs, can use big buff:
Holy Priest (never seen in arena)
Fury Warrior (never seen in arena)
Survival hunter (never seen in arena)
Demo lock (very rarely seen and quite weak)
Blood DK

Quite bad, could use a small buff:
Balance druid
Combat rogue


maybe i forgot some, but buffing these specs would allow people to experience my specs. Which would be great, its part of the game, but just never used cause its very non-meta.

All the "worst" specs you mentioned are from classes that have other specs that can fulfill those roles. Why should all classes have several viable specs for a single role?

WoW is made like that, something is viable in PvP and something in PvE, they can't be the same.

There used to be patch 3.3.5b on Blackrock/AT:

It is no longer possible to "reset" character MMR by creating a new character of the same class on an account.
Character MMR is no longer displayed with the implementation of the new MMR system.
[Bryntroll, the Bone Arbiter]’s PPM fixed.


Now for the actual class changes!
We’ve decided to give some love to the under-performing classes, as well as implement some quality-of-life changes.
We are not trying to remove RNG from the game. It just happened to turn out that a lot of the changes we’re making are RNG-oriented. (we all know that Cloak of Shadows should be 100%, for example.)


Rogue:
General:
Cloak of shadows now provides 100% spell resistance (up from 90%).

Combat:
Adrenaline rush cooldown has been lowered to 90 seconds. (down from 180 seconds)
Killing spree has been changed so that it no longer targets crowd controlled units which would otherwise break on damage.
Glyph of Sinister Strike: Your Sinister Strike has a 50% chance to add an additional combo point

Subtlety:
Cheat Death 3/3 now reads: You have a 100% chance that an attack which would otherwise kill you will instead restore 5-10% of your health depending on your resilience. In addition, all damage taken will be reduced by up to 90% for 3 sec (modified by resilience). This effect cannot occur more than once per minute.


Mage:
Arcane:
Prismatic Cloak (talent) values increased slightly:
rank1: Reduce all damage by 3% and reduces the fade time of your invisibility by 1 second.
rank2: Reduce all damage by 6% and reduces the fade time of your invisibility by 2 seconds.
rank3: Reduce all damage by 10% and reduces the fade time of your invisibility by 3 seconds

Improved blink (talent) will now also reduce the cooldown of your Blink ability by 2.5 / 5 seconds.


Priest:
Holy:
Lightwell has been redesigned:
Light Well now functions as a priest pet. (similar to a shadowfiend or a warlock’s felhunter)
Light Well has had its hp increased to 80% of your total hit points.

Body and Soul talent effect now also removes movement impairing effects.
Holy Concentration (talent) now can proc from any healing spell.


Warlock:
General:
(bug fix)When you are affected by both the Nightfall and the Backlash buffs, using the shadowbolt ability will no longer consume both procs.
(bug fix) Shadowflame interacts with Spell Reflection properly again. The dot is reflected, the slow effect of the glyph is not reflected.

Demonology:
Warlocks are no longer banishable while in Metamorphosis. They are still turn evil-able.


Druid:
General:
Barkskin is now undispellable regardless of druid specialization.

Balance:
Typhoon knockback effect is now instant.
Wyrmhide 4 piece bonus now reads: Your damage-over-time ticks and wrath casts have a chance to reduce the cast time on your next starfire by 1.5
Owlkin Frenzy (talent) now restores 3% base mana every 2 sec. (up from 2%)
Improved Insect Swarm (talent) now also reads- When your Moonfire or Insect Swarm are dispelled, you are refunded 20/40/60% of their base mana cost.


Warrior:
Arms:
T?a?s?t?e? ?f?o?r? ?B?l?o?o?d? ?(?t?a?l?e?n?t?)? ?I?n?t?e?r?n?a?l? ?c?o?o?l?d?o?w?n? ?s?t?a?r?t?s? ?a?f?t?e?r? ?t?h?e? ?u?s?e? ?o?f? ?t?h?e? ?p?r?o?c? ?i?n?s?t?e?a?d? ?o?f? ?o?n? ?p?r?o?c? ?s?t?a?r?t?.?

Fury:
Flurry now increases attack speed by 7% per stack, up from 5%.
Furious Attacks now reads: Your normal melee attacks have a 50% chance to reduce all healing done to the target by 25% for 10 seconds. This can stack up to 2 times.
Bloodsurge now reads: Your Heroic Strike, Bloodthirst, and Whirlwind hits have a 10%/20%/30% chance (up from 7/13/20) of making your next Slam instant for 5 seconds.
Heroic Fury is now a 30 second cooldown. (down from 45 seconds)


Hunter:
Survival:

Shaman:
Enhancement:
The Stormstrike ability now also reduces the cooldown of Feral Spirit by 4 seconds each time it lands.


Death Knight:
General:
(bug fix) Minimum range has been set to 8 yards.

Frost:
Glacier Rot now reads: Diseased enemies take 7/13/20% more damage from your Icy Touch, Howling Blast, and Frost Strike. When one of your diseases are dispelled, you gain 10 Runic Power.

Retribution:
Mana gained through Judgements of the Wise now works through shield effects.

The patch made FDK+Hpala on a par with Awarr+Hpala in 268 meta.
Unfortunately with the implementation of cross-realm BG and arena the custom patch had to be removed because implementing 3.3.5b on ICC and Lordaeron would affect the PvE content too.
Imagine a overpowered pve spec like Fury warr with these custom buffs...

Warmane isn't doing any custom balancing for any of the classes.
