What worries me is that we'll still not be even close to warlocks (I can tell even before tuning passes, it's a population balance thing), mages are bringing increased healing and we're left without off-healing, our CC via void tendrils is being nerfed to being common roots that any druid/shaman brings, and apart from mass dispel we will bring nothing special to the table and will likely still be the worst choice for a caster dps.
