Patch 3.1.3

I took a week off from raiding and spent only little time online, mostly doing dailies with my alts. I have four level 80s and they all need that darn Sons of Hodir reputation.... (two exalted so far)

This week it seems like we are getting a new minor patch. For paladins, it's all about PvP nerfs (again...)
  • Eye For An Eye: This talent now deals 5/10% of the critical strike damage taken by the paladin back at the attacker.
  • Hand of Freedom: The base duration of this buff has been reduced from 10 seconds to 6 seconds.
And then we have yet another Ulduar nerf:

Mimiron
  • The flight time of Rocket Strikes has been increased, and Rocket Strikes will try to prefer players at range.
  • The Leviathan Mk II component of the V-07-TR-0N will become stunned during Phase 4 when the VX-001 component begins to cast the P3Wx2 Laser Barrage ability.
  • Proximity mines now deal less damage and have a lower duration. A small arming time has also been added so proximity mines will not immediately detonate on creation.
Now, I must admit I don't mind the rocket nerf (I've got killed more times by rockets than I want to admit), and phase 4 could be a bit messy if the Laser Barrage occured just after a Shock Blast and the tank is repositioning the boss. But, seriously, why the nerf to mines? Did people actually die from these?
