In Blizzard's notes
What Blizzard said about Improved Slam, each line checked against the files.
- Partly
Improved Slam now reduces the cooldown of Slam by 1.5/3 seconds.
The files The client files agree with the note. The tooltip says 1.5/3 sec and build 70009 added a -1.5/-3 sec rank value for Slam's cooldown (12862). Blizzard's hotfix data captured on 70245 deletes that rank value, so the live numbers per rank aren't confirmed.
- Matches the files
Improved Slam: Moved from Fury to row 6 of Arms and redesigned. Only 2 points. Reduces the cooldown, global cooldown, and cast time of Slam, and Slam no longer delays or interrupts your melee auto attack swing time.
The files Classic Fury row 5 with 5 ranks; 70245 Arms row 6 with 2 ranks. The tooltip cuts GCD and cast time by 0.25/0.5 sec and the cooldown by 1.5/3 sec, with no swing delay (spell 12862); the 70245 hotfix deletes the per-rank values of the cooldown part, so rank 1's number is unclear.
