    dont see any rogue changes

    I seriously hope they don't think that one change will fix marksman, and it doesn't even affect survival.
    also, expect a nerf to pyroblasts damage if they changed their mind about the cooldown

    ^ This, so much this.

    Glad they realized what a crappy decision that was and how badly it ruined the flow of fire.

    I wouldnt say that. Renewing mists lost a bit of its kick but it ticks every 2 seconds instead of 3. And the haste thing, as far as I know, is non existant on live meaning that 50% increased haste from stats is still a complete buff to them.

    Yay, no pyro cd. Kind of sad to see no rogue changes though, they never seem to even get through ice barrier without all cds lately.

    Whoa thats some massive Mistweaver nerfs, the mana management on the class was bad enough before, going to be terribad now.

    - i knew it.. blizzard never have the guts to stick with a mage nerf..

    Hopefully that will fix monk healing a bit... I doubt it though.

    WTB a legitimate rogue buff. quitting until step is a baseline ability. every other class has a gap closer/mobility tool on a short cd baseline. hurry up blizzard. i want it meow.

    It's almost as if they listened to the feedback and are looking for other ways of fixing it.

    Another lose-lose scenario for Blizzard;

    Do nothing: Blizzard doesn't listen.
    Revert change: Blizzard only listens to whiners.

    Whining for what exactly? Pyro cd was going to impact PvE alter timing with PoM + pyro proc by a massive amount, consume pyroblast!, wait 2.3 seconds, consume PoM, you cant get inferno blast then 1 more pyro before alter time runs out.
    On other hand no 2.3k+ mages play fire anyway, so /care.

    Hmmm the mistweaver got pretty much obliterated, My condolences and grats for pyro no longer having a CD.

    Oh god, they listened and added the Wakener as a title. I'm loving Blizz right now.

    Mistweavers were not nerfed.

    Renewing Mists jumps one less time, yes, but it tics 50% faster.

    The haste bonus on Stance of the Wise Serpent does not exist on live. Chances are 150% was a typo from a previous beta build. That's still a buff, either way. It doesn't exist on live, so when it hits live, MWs get 50% more haste from their gear.

    Their mana costs were bumped up a bit, but not enough to matter.

    And Healing Spheres... no one used them anyway.
