Gnome Racial Heavily Nerfed in Latest WoW: Forever Beta Build

Many players had noticed that the Gnome racial, Eureka!, seemed a bit overtuned. Blizzard has seemingly agreed, and the racial received fairly heavy nerfs for all variants in the latest beta build.

More Information:Information in this article is based on datamining the game files. WoW: Forever handles datamining and encryption differently than other versions of WoW, so please note that all of the following information is subject to change on Forever's launch. Parts of this article are speculation based on the data that was found.

Each class available to Gnomes had its own version of this trait, giving them either a mana, rage, or energy reduction for their skills. For some classes, like Mage, this could be up to 50% - a massive savings that has now been nerfed down to 10% equally for each class.
