Devastate Buff - Is it enough?

Yes, we are hotfixing Devastate to do 20% more damage, not just 20% more weapon damage.
I can't comment on when the hotfix will go live, because there are a lot of people involved in getting those changes pushed out, so we just don't know. Often hotfixes go live within a day or two, but some may take longer if we find a bug or unexpected side-effect to the initial change.

Now that it's a flat 20% increase, will it really do anything for our single target DPS? Do you feel it's enough?

so far, it's not even enough for me to drop revenge. looking at overall logs from this week, my average devastate was 1867 and average revenge was 2298, and that's with 1/2 improved revenge.
i was still 20% lower dps than the pally i tank with, and forget about bears. i don't see this closing the gap much.

Devastate damage is really nice with a slow weapon now. Well it was nice before too, but now im seeing 6k devastate crits.
Now there are few slow tanking weapons, just one outdated from naxx, but if you can live without tanking stats on a weapon there are several.
I havent done the math, but i think it will outdps a fast one, even with the less amount of heroic strikes.
On single target, in a 10man raid im about 1k damage above the bear and pallys, and 1,5k above the dk.

see i don;t think it's enough at all. We should have to change to a slow one hander in order to compete. At least they are actually doing something about it!
