Mists of Pandaria - Beta Build 15657

Mists of Pandaria - Beta Build 15657
A minor build will be deployed on beta realms shortly, it seems to have mostly spell changes and a lot of model bugfixes but we'll keep digging! I also assume that this build is here to unlock the level cap and open the Shado-pan Monastery and Mogu'shan Palace to players.

New Items
Nothing really interesting, some Glyph items have also been added and probably means that some of the new glyphs are now craftable, or will be soon.

    As long as they a) fix the problem with the "Core Abilities" page of your spell book, have an ability from level 54 that I have never been able to place in my action bars, and I am almost 70.

    b) fix the problem with the Professions page being totally borked.

    And c) do away with the disconnect on looting bug.

    My panda monk will be happy 8D. Then we can go on to see whether we have glyphs for pandas, herbs for picking and mines for mining in the 95+ zones.

    Joy!

    Ghostcrawler realized we might have a glimmer at being viable in any sense of the word, so he had to nerf us. Welcome to WoW.

    And off topic: anyone know why I can post on google chrome but not IE9?

    @Nephilm Because internet explorer has always been shit. You can put as much seasoning on shit that you want, but it will never taste better.

    Much-needed love for the Gnomish Army Knife. I carry one on each of my alts because my eng alt made so many in order to skill up back in WotLK, so it'll be nice that it'll be more useful.

    Although... is the tooltip for real, regarding mining pick and skinning knife? I haven't used either in a long time due to the GAK, so I'm not certain.

    Wicked, won't have too much use, but still cool sounding. (Which is why it is a minor glyph)
