The Patch 3.3 PTR Notes have been updated once again. A new build is deployed tonight on PTRs. General- Quel’Delar Quest Chain: The Battered Hilt, the item needed to start this quest line, can now be purchased from all glyph vendors on the public test realms.
PvPBattlegrounds- The achievements to get exalted with the Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin, and Alterac Valley factions have been removed from their respective “Master of” meta-achievements. Special titles will be offered to those who reach exalted with these factions.
Wintergrasp- You must now have the following ranks to build or pilot siege vehicles:
Rank 1: Build/pilot Catapults. Rank 2: Build/pilot Demolishers. Rank 3: Build/pilot Siege Engines. Mage - Deep Freeze: This spell now deals a large amount of damage to targets permanently immune to stuns.
 WarlockAffliction- Shadow Mastery: This talent now also increases the damage done by the felhunter’s Shadow Bite ability by 3/6/9/12/15%.
Demonology- Molten Core: Redesigned. This talent now increases the duration of Immolate by 3/6/9 seconds and provides a 4/8/12% chance to gain the Molten Core effect when Corruption deals damage. The Molten Core effect empowers the next 3 Incinerate or Soul Fire spells cast within 15 seconds (Incinerate: increases damage done by 6/12/18% and reduces cast time by 10/20/30%; Soul Fire: increases damage done by 6/12/18% and increases critical strike chance by 5/10/15%). Molten Core now has a new spell effect.
Destruction- Conflagrate: Redesigned. This talent now consumes an Immolate or Shadowflame effect on the enemy target to instantly deal damage equal to 9 seconds of Immolate or 8 seconds of Shadowflame, and causes additional damage over 3 seconds equal to 3 seconds of Immolate or 2 seconds of Shadowflame. In addition, the periodic damage of Conflagrate is capable of critically striking the afflicted target.
Reputation- Gaining reputation with the Ashen Verdict in Icecrown Citadel will grant players access to upgradeable rings from Ormus the Penitent. Players can switch between the type of ring (melee/caster/tank/healer) at any point in the upgrade path for 200g.
Items- Hatchlings: Leaping, Darting, Razormaw, and Ravasaur Hatchlings no longer drop from their associated rare creatures. Instead, there are now rare nests that spawn which contain these hatchlings. For example, the Leaping Hatchling can now be found in Takk’s Nest rather than as a drop from Takk the Leaper.

Does this mean lower level players will now get less experience in battlegrounds compared to what they were getting?

There was an error in the database that players were getting over 4k experience an hour in battlegrounds. We have now fixed it accordingly and it now should be less than 2k per hour as intended. |

You missed one;
"The achievements to get exalted with the Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin, and Alterac Valley factions have been removed from their respective “Master of” meta-achievements. Special titles will be offered to those who reach exalted with these factions."
Frankly, i'm pissed. I spent a good few WEEKS of constant BG'ing to get exalted with AB and WSG (hell, even from Revered to Exalted is a pain in the ass in Vindication EU) for Battlemaster. It was by far the longest part of the achievement, one of the major grindy parts of such an achievement. It was the real test of whether you could be bothered to put in the time and effort to get it (i actually got someone post on my Youtube video stating that Arena Master > Battlemaster, and that Battlemaster can be earned by simply playing for 1 hour a day, and also at the same time all day long, think it was some nerdrage just because someone had something they didn't have).
I'm guessing the titles will be this;
Defiler <Name>
Outrider <Name>
Frostwolf <Name>
<Name> of Arathor
Sentinel <Name>
<Name> of Stormpike
Although i could be wrong.

You're the most serious thing in this thread. Are you trying to be THE MMO-Champion champion? or are you really Tseric in disguise?

Keep the affliction buffs coming! The fel hunter is almost going to be useful soon.

As a Mage, I welcome (potentially) being the first pure class in the game with all 3 specs being viable in raiding  |

God, still having to grind some 18000 rep with Silverwing is agonizing. And getting to exalted with Alterac Valley is still easiest of any faction.
