I literally started to squeal when I saw the new cleave change to warriors.

I hope this means I can hit 4 targets total with glyphed cleave.

ZOMG YAY!

(Non-warriors have NO IDEA how much this will improve our AoE threat, I can see it now...me competing up there with the bigs boy! (IE: DKs/Paladins) )

------------------------------Edit-------------------------

Just noticed that Quel'delar addition, WHAT could that be? Also Krasus is mentioned.....

(moar, i needz moar!)

[mitchimitch]

nature resist gear sup ?

[Yizren]

i think they wanted to reduce mana cost

[Bathazar]

Leet cleave change

Increased fury and arms dps and increased tank aoe tps

[Orvanoc]

Cleave buff..as if Saurfang wasn't OP enough...

[talrob]

[Icecrown thing of crafting things]

haha I love blizz...

[Pally_Power]

I read 'Holy Shock, Flash of Light, Holy Light' and 'mana cost reduced' and almost jumped with excitement. Then I read it again and found the 'for lower ranks' and I cried inside.

[norazz]

Nice!

[burek]

weird coe change, and no mention of earth & moon/ebon plague

[BlogThatWorld]

Quel'Delar's Wrath - Inflicts 2437500 to 2562500 Shadow damage. lolwut.

[talrob]

In before, 'Arthas had the mana cost of his lower ranks reduced!'

[Marakara]

lol

[Xunae]

Quel'Delar's Wrath - Inflicts 2437500 to 2562500 Shadow damage. lolwut.

more importantly why do we need to immerse quel'delar in the sunwell

[Pally_Power]

Quel'Delar's Wrath - Inflicts 2437500 to 2562500 Shadow damage. lolwut.

Maybe it's something we use against Arthas or one of the bosses in the Icecrown Raid/Dungeon?

[Naydie]

I doubt that change to cleaving will be a buff really. Check the other change, an immobalize proc on hamstring, which is a glyph currently. I'm guessing those 2 glyphs might be removed.

[martinkaca]

What is with the change in mana cost of almost all lowerer level spells?

[Heywes]

1.39gig to download, gahhhhh!!!

Still i want to see the new instance and feel like Surfang

[kyro27]

why do they buff desecration and hamstring...its almost like they hate warlocks and want them unable to get out of snares


oh wait, they already do

[Agira]

Does this mean with the Cleave Glyph my strike hits a total of 4? Its almost like another WW.
