    Alchemy: Mysterious Potion now restores 1 to 50000 health and 1 to 20000 mana, up from 1 to 30000 health and 1 to 15000 mana.
    This will be sexy.

    Any reason why the change to Tol Barad Veteran is necessary? They didn't change the Wintergrasp achievement throughout all of WOTLK so why change the TB one in the last patch of the expansion?

    That's a very small buff for elemental. Guess it's good we're not nerfed at all though.

    IM SO ANGRY.

    Tol Barad Veteran now requires players to win 25 battles in Tol Barad, down from 100.

    WTF!!!!

    I actually spent the time and effort and got this achievement. No reward. No tabard. No title. And now they even ruin the achievement. What a joke!

    It's probably due to people being less able to get into TB games compared to WG games back in Wrath due to the 1:1 enforced player ratio. It'd probably take years or even a lifetime to get 100 wins if you're playing on a realm like Mal'Ganis on Horde side.

    Damn that's some sweet Alchemy buffs though.

    What? Of course it is coming, like every other patch.

    Or are you implying it is coming very soon because
    a client string was updated? If so, idk about that.

    That achiev is just pointless now, lol. Also, yay for the potions!

    So why don't they change wintergrap's now too?

    Nice changes.I'm glad they're nerfing the TB achievement, though making it 25 might be a bit low. 50 would be fine.

    Alchemy: Mighty Rejuvenation Potion now restores 9000 to 11000 mana and health, up from 7200 to 8800. No longer requires Volatile Life.
    That should read Now requires Volatile Life as the tooltip on the updated PTR build version shows it's a required herb.

    Due to the many shaman elemental buffs that have happened though out this expansion, I think there is a scaling problem that Blizzard is addressing right now by simply upping the damage as we go though the content. It is also possible that it is like this now, and it is yet another tooltip update.on the negative side, this just makes it even harder for restro to dps. Many other classes get a 10% bonus to their spec's spells, making the difference between damage while inside and outside of the spec not as large.
