FC's Vision for Rebalancing - Traders
Current stage of rebalancing efforts look like this for Traders.
Quote:
--Traders:
Drains: ** see below **
Nanolines: Potential merging of various buff/debuff lines. Debuff lines will most likely see differing durations based off PvP/PvM usage.
Damage Boost Nanolines: Extension of nanoline across all Trader levelling ranges.
Pets: Extend (and make not-suck) 'Committee' pet line for lower levels.
Roots/Calms: Duration decreased, faster casting, increased functionality in Shadowlands (goes for all professions). Extension of calm lines across all leveling ranges.
Damage to Nano: Likely hard-capped at a value below 100%. This change will effect all classes utilizing this mechanic.

While I can't say one way or another exactly what we'll be doing to GTH, and I won't say that the concept will disappear, the nano's current implementation will most likely be drastically altered.

Borrow Reflect
1) Universal use, target is correct if the target has more than 24% reflects.
2) Debuffs 30% for 15 seconds.
3) Buffs 30% for 60 seconds.
Grand Theft Humidity
1) 15% of the target's nanopool will be stripped every second for 15 seconds, irregardless of opponent's profession.
2) 10% of our nanopool will be restored every second for 15 seconds.
3) There is a new cooldown period of 1 minute.
4) As before, GTH will terminate on opponent if the Trader dies.
