Fast 4x S3 + 4x T6 nerf? It seems so as prot items still have loads of STA but then prot is useless for PvP. Feral could use those items for PvP but it is stupid change for PvE.

Paying half a leg for anyone to check the mage mana changes once the PTR is up.

I was thinking the same thing. Stamina is a big deal for a Feral Druid. What the hell are Blizzard thinking? |

meh, we'll see how that goes. One of the reasons they may have removed stamina is because they didn't want you guys to have more HP (Don't ask why) without gimping lower tier druids (ie, coefficient bust) Still, this is what I call a patch. Actual class changes... AV join as group option, and: Matchmaking: If a queued player has a personal rating higher than their team rating, the matchmaking system will now use the highest personal rating of a queued member of that team for matchmaking purposes, instead of the team rating. personally, I'm interested to see how the EM/NS thing will work out. Now they need to change Enhancement like so. Edit before post: spell hit on priest healing seems odd, but maybe they want to give you some offensive capability hen using DoTs, shackle or other spells? |

Nice. Let's hope the other parts to the 'fake' patch notes come true for mages aswell. The 100% spell pushback on icy veins and the 30% spell pushback with the talent (frozen core was it?) spell HIT on priest healing bracers..... geee, thx blizz Maybe for when you're grinding outside of raids, you won't get as many resists? Not sure tho, it is a strange change. |

Considering this new build was pushed with some PVP changes, I'd assume the stamina was removed to prevent certain classes from obtaining both the 4pc Gladiator and 4pc T6 Bonus in PVP.
