Is Patch 4.0.1 this week?
Yes, most likely. I'm still trying to get a confirmation on that but really, It's not like it's going to happen on october 19th a few days before Blizzcon. The super mega awesome info compilation for the patch should be available soon, except if I hear that the patch has been delayed.

Update - Oh! Look! An extended maintenance!

Thank you for your patience.

Road to 4.0.1 - Classes pages
A lot of people are contacting me to know more about the changes made to classes in 4.0.1, I'd like to remind you that the class pages are up to date and should answer 90% of your questions. They will be updated with a few more information very soon/if the patch is confirmed for this week.




Road to 4.0.1 - WoWTal v2!
WoWTal.com is (finally) updated with a couple of much-needed features and should be ready for Patch 4.0.1 and Cataclysm. It's theorycrafting time!

  • Cataclysm/4.0.1 Glyphs are finally supported.
  • Masteries/Primary spells are supported.
  • Interface has been cleaned up.
  • The header and the ad slot are gone. (We didn't even have ads anyway)

There are probably a few remaining bugs, feel free to report them in comments. (PS: Using Internet Explorer 7 is a bug on your side.)



Road to 4.0.1 - Glyphs Preview
I didn't really preview glyphs during the beta testing of Cataclysm, mostly because changes were so massive that it was pretty much impossible to track. It's time for a nice preview of the glyphs you can expect on 4.0.1 live realms.

    get ready for all your broken add-ons.. out of the 85 i use, only 10 have been in beta on the ptr/cata. blizz even gave beta keys to all the addon authors and most have still not been updated and don't work. maybe they were too busy leveling to 85?

    I'd love to play. But Blizz decided my computer isn't allowed to run wow anymore. Sure,I understand their reasoning. I'm not even really mad about it. Sure does put me in a bind though,with money being so tight these days. Oh well, I hope to be able to play again before too long.

    Mage glyphs looks nice, hell, we even have few useful minor ones. I'm happy with that.

    Just a minor poke to something that caught my attention, the primary skill "touched by the light" for protection paladin states 60% stamina. i thought this might be a tad OP so looked on the class page for paladins and there it said 15% which seems about normal seeing the warrior version.

    so basically Touched by the light has a small bug on wowtal

    *****I FIGURED OUT HOW TO FIX GOOGLE CHROME IF YOURS IS BROKE, AT LEAST IT WORKED FOR ME******

    First, I opened up www.wowtal.com
    As it was before, it was practically unreadable, major issues, it looked like a broken site. Something about disc, and a power word shield icon, then i clicked my class (warrior) and it had a bunch of emblems of each spec all over in a line, most of which was covered up. Spec abilities and mastery wern't inside anything, just random icons and links that were in a list moving down the site. Clicking on a picture of the spec would then give an area that looked like it should have the talents there, but it was empty. near the bottom of the page was the talents just over gray area of the site. If this sounds like you, read this fix.

    I clicked into my class, (warrior), and it brought up the 3 specs but how i described earlier. I clicked the area that had fury, which brought up the whacked out talent page. I then hit RELOAD (not ctrl F5, reload on my browser)
    It was then fixed. I was going to refresh to take a screenshot to show just how fucked up it was, and this is what fixed it.

    in WoWTal, the prot-pala talent http://db.mmo-champion.com/s/53592/ is a bit off, says 60% stamina, it´s 15% on WoWHead and it feels a bit more... sane.

    Indeed, Demonology should be 15% and Destruction should be 25%. 3% is probably some copy+paste number or something of the sort and it missed getting switched.

    A lot of spells seem to require Shadowform, even some non-priest talents say that they require Shadowform.

    Druid is showing some weird tooltips in Resto and Balance. I don't know if there is some type of weird mechanic involved in Cata for forms, but Moonkin Form shows "Requires Tree of Life Form" and Nature's Swiftness in Resto says "Requires Moonkin Form". Found this to be strange.
