We will be performing maintenance for all realms on Tuesday, January 20th. The downtime will begin at 3:00am PST and end at approximately 11:00am PST.

Long maintenance, still nothing said about patch being applied.

[perera]

Mage (Skills List / Talent + Glyph Calc.)

• Glyph of Deterrence - Decreases the cooldown of Deterrence by 10 sec. (Down from 20 sec)

It's a hunter change bibi.

Looking forward to the patch

[Brakkis]

You have Hunter and Mage Glyphs under each others categories lol

Was a little confused when I saw Arcane Blast, Invisibility, and Blast Nova under Hunter.

[Boubouille]

Give invisibility to hunters, and they will keep complaining. (Fixed.)

And the patch is tomorrow, trust me.

[junc]

Hunter (Skills List / Talent + Glyph Calc.)

* Glyph of Arcane Blast -- Increases the damage from your Arcane Blast buff by 5%.
* Glyph of Invisibility -- Increases the duration of the Invisibility effect by 10 sec. (Up from 5 seconds)
* Glyph of Blast Wave -- The mana cost of your Blast Wave spell is reduced by 15%, but it no longer knocks enemies back.


Mage (Skills List / Talent + Glyph Calc.)

* Glyph of Deterrence - Decreases the cooldown of Deterrence by 10 sec. (Down from 20 sec)

Working as intended.

Reputation rewarded for killing mobs will no longer automatically deprecate. This means trivial mobs will continue to give out their full amounts of reputation on kill for the majority of cases in the game (level 70 creatures in Stratholme, for example, will continue to award the full amount of rep to level 80 players seeking to boost their Argent Dawn faction).

This makes me so happy :-)
Hurray for patch 3.0.8!

@ Boubouille :

The Lake Wintergrasp mail items are messed up. There should be:
- "of Dominance" => Spell Hit,
- "of Triumph" => Phys. DPS,
- "of Salvation" => Spell.

There are a bunch of performance fix in 3.0.8 that can't be hotfixed, they're probably rushing the release to try to get the live version more stable. Btw I'm now 100% sure that the patch will be tomorrow.

Interesting since i'm suffering bad performance in this state.

I was wondering, Ice Bound Fortitude damage reduction is increased by defence rating, but in PVP Death Knights don't use defence rating. It would be nice if resilience reduced the damage in PVP. Futhermore, DPS Death Knights have no defence, so no additional damage reduction.

Didnt want to read the whole thread, but the enchanting materials for exceptional agility on weapon seems abit off, it's only 1 Eternal Air on Live atm it say 8 on this site :P

Patch 3.0.8 is going live this week, this isn't official yet but ... oh well, you know how it works.

MOTD on russian servers states that 3.0.8 will go live tomorrow (screenshot at sign if you want).

[Cronax]

Je'Tze's Bell is now Bind When Equipped.

Wasn't this change pulled? I seem to recall a blue post about it.

90% chance of patch this week. Latest PTR build didn't contain that much.

edit:
Cronax:
That was about it being BoE or BoP for people already having it equipped.

At least Europe is kind enough to anounce that the maintenance is because of the application of a patch

That's the point. They think you shouldn't have the mitigation for PvP, but that you need it for tanking. With the incoming change you will have it only for tanking, just the way they want it.

You do keep stun resistance for PvP though and that's pretty big.
