[pvp] Dampening debuff

[Peetoo6]

Hey,
Just curious.... is there no dampening debuff in arenas here? (healing/absorb reduction that stacks after certain time period)
I was almost sure that it was working on Blackrock some time ago. Any plan to implement it?

It has never been a thing in WOTLK, so I doubt it.

Dampening was added in patch 3.3.2 and it affects arenas too, or at least it should.

Dampening was added in 4.3.0

Sorry, I was thinking of something else.

It was up for some while on Blackrock (AT) back then indeed.
Thing is we used to have a 264 gear meta/restriction back then;
Damages and pressure output in arenas wasn't as big as it is today in the 284/Shadowmourne gear meta.
Draws nowadays are rare in such way, thus dampening not being necessary.
