Cataclysm Beta - Build 13189 (Codename Kitten)
Apparently, Cataclysm Beta Build 13183 will never reach the beta servers and has been replaced with 13189. this build has a few extra changes. And yeah, I'm in the mood for another stupid codename.

    Requires Shadowform
    Reduces the casting time of your Holy Light and Divine Light spells by 0.3 sec.

    More Holy nerfs?
    We can't compete with the other classes on heal anymore, actually, we can't heal, and still, you make our heals slower?

    What's next Blizzard? Making it cost more mana?

    Sigh... so we don't get the good patch with the Balance spell cast time changes and the non-clunky Frost Trap duration?
    The way MMO Champ works (I think) is that he compares each patch's files to the file before and updates from there. So these are changes in addition to the patch that won't make it to beta, not replacing them.

    Sure, don't forget to reduce radius, lower healing bonus coefficients and put 60 sec cool down on all healing spell.

    Not too happy about the Scepter of the Shifting Sands change. Only got the Blue Shard part of the chain left and its really annoying trying to get the Elementium Ore for the Arcanite Buoy.

    Thats the only thing holding me back from finishing it since Maws is cake at 80.

    HOLY crap! dude last night I made this tread asking about what achievements people wanted to see put into the game and my idea was for one doing the exact same thing as mentioned above. I even made my own feat for it!

    Yes you are. What's with the description? Feels like they're spitting in my face. Morons, all of them. I didn't go through all the trouble for a lousy, useless Feat of Strength. I refuse to turn my scepter in for that, so I'll simply do nothing and wait until they bring it back, which they won't considering they're giant assholes.

    I'm glad they nerfed pally's. Their high burst single target heals and awesome aoe heals and lightning fast haste was too much for the other healing classes. They needed to lose that 27% haste for their most used bomb heal.
