    This could be a notable nerf for blood elf tankadins. Mana-tap has always been a very useful way of ranged pulling a single mob too close to other mobs to use Avenger's Shield. Depending on just 'what' in integrated into Arcane Torrent, that may or may not have a big impact on play style for many horde paladins.

    I disagree, this is a buff when either the mobs have no mana or are immune to mana tap. Since AS doesn't break CC anymore, I don't see a problem. The only thing mana tap was useful for me in that purpose was jumping off my mount and pulling the netherrays for the daily in ogri'la/skygaurd.

    Which is silly, because the only reason people roll them is for WotF. Seriously who cares about a 1% difference in a spell school resistance? Until they take away this bonus PVP trinket, undead will still be the dominant race. Woohoo, more PVP videos of nothing but undead toons.

    You forgot the fact that their animations look friggin awesome! =)

Human mages just got a lot better with this. AoE-grind-pull going bad? Just FD, let the mobs reset and walk away like nothing ever happened and start over.

    I really hope this change doesn't see live, even though I have a human mage as an alt. It's way overpowered for a racial.
    Nice job reading the description of the racial. It DOES NOT DROP COMBAT. ANY AND ALL THREAT ORIGINALLY OBTAINED IS RESTORED WHEN THE EFFECT ENDS.

    Racial "The Fall of Humanity": Feign death which may trick enemies into ignoring you. Any threat is restored versus enemies still in combat upon cancellation of this effect. 5min cooldown
    You're retarded.

    What? No way. No way at all. Have you ever tried to pull a caster with AS? It's a bloody pain in the ass. You guys can now pull a caster by silencing them without having to figure out how to LoS them (which in many cases is not easy).

    not dropping threat is not the same as not dropping combat. You can indeed use this to make mobs reset. (I.E. AOE farming or something.)

    You realize Arcane Torrent has an 8 yard range, right? They REMOVED mana tap, fully.
