[Campagnolo]

Awesome. Lovin the dk helm.

[Kaesebrezen]

Omg @ Shadow changes.

[Wanky]

I knew it, the Death Knight helm looks very similar to the Lich King's helm. Although, the spikes on the top are larger and the helmet has green eyes. But I'm guessing that one of the other armor models has blue eyes for the helm.

[Kobrakette]

That DK helm looks pretty badass, as does the new Lich.

I wish I had some comment to make on the Class changes but I'm not big on any of those classes.

[Kalx]

Mr. Chilly is no longer named Oswald and got his old name back.

NOOOO

[VibeTribe]

This is the first patch since tbc where i actually like all the tier sets. At least those we know. Awesome helmet.

And nice to see shadow buffs. Oh and, can we have a patch that actually doesn't buff hunters? Thanks.

[Flurggy]

OMGOMGOMGOMG SHADOW BUFFS OMGOMGOMG!

I had no one but my office mate to tell this to. He lol'd.

[Saberoy]

What a beastly helm! I haven't been examing the new scourge strike that much, but I think it'll generally work out to be better damage.

Very excite!

[Ocet]

Oh, here they are. Nerfs to demonology, that was sure.

[Bllets]

Glyph of Quick Decay - Your haste now reduces the time between periodic damage ticks of your Corruption spell.

Should be moved from DK glyphs to warlocks glyphs

[Schnitzel]

Curses! I was so looking forward to a penguin named Oswald. Oh well...

[ent0mbed]

That is some amazingly great looking armor. This is going to actually make me want to raid with my Death Knight again which I wasn't expecting!

[Swutter]

Glyph of Eternal Water - Your Summon Water Elemental now lasts indefinitely, but your Water Elemental can no longer cast Freeze.

I haven't played WoW in a while, but how much damage does the Water Elemental deal now?

[Tinkle]

That helm looks great!

[Ramuh]

wow at mage changes
scorch change makes scorching not suck as much as it does now

frost changes might make frost viable for pve

and just O_O at shadow changes, awesome

[Offhand]

Clearly, Blizz doesn't care about shadow and will never buff them.


...oh wait!

[skypunk_lx]

The DK helm looks very good, want to see with the other color themes, since that one is the ugliest of the color themes.

I don't play a Priest, but it looks Blizz is making an attempt to buff the Shadow Priests.

Gift of Earthmoon changed hum, 10% less on LB, Rejuv and WG, but 10% more on Nourish and Regrowth, seems like a nice trade, since they are changing the Rejuv to scale with Haste.

[Seriousdoom]

i wish the DK armor was the Warrior armor

[Ruminan]

That lich is (was...) a girl?

Nice DK helm...

What about other t10?

Mr. Chilly is no longer named Oswald and got his old name back.

NOOOO

NOOOO
