Edit: first

Looking good

[Simca]

No time limit on Chakra state will make Holy Priests pretty happy, I'm sure.

The time increase on the Holy Paladin mastery is uh... interesting, but it won't change anything.

[Baygon]

oh good news Zul'Gurub has 1 boss that hasn't changed from the original version. but i forgive blizzard if he keeps his leveling capabilities

[Reyzzz]

Lol at paladin mastery change, it never lasts more than 2 sec anyway.

[Deleted]

* Essence of the Viper: Increases all magical elemental damage you deal by 8%. Each point of Mastery increases magical elemental damage by an additional 1%.

Now did i understand this correctly, are they nerfing survival again? Its already the lowest of all three specs.

[Sainiunit]

Blizz is nerfing boomkins even more? :|

Solar beam now lasts 1 sec. It used to last 10sec before. Wow.... totally lame.

[Deleted]

give big bear mount please, not like the tiny cuddly bear mounts they gave us in wrath...

*still pissed at himself for having a group that wasn't able to get the timed runs done....*

[blahssat]

Damn, I was going to say inb4qq about slar beam. It's likely a tooltip error. These are all datamined tooltips, wait for official patch notes.

[Libretto]

Curious why the original version of this update with all the reagent removal changes was swiftly removed. Previously this update showed that all remaining reagent requirements for all ingame utility spells (mage teleports, shaman water walking, druid battle rez etc) were finally gone.

[Vidal]

Spirit link totem? Tier 5? Is this gonna replace mana tide totem..?

(I havent read/been on/whatever PTR)

[Wishblade]

So... all reagents are going bye-bye? Cool, I guess, then we don't need to keep getting those for the few times we might actually do that (Mages rejoice).

[Zogrim]

ehhh wtf..roguechange reverted. that's it? wow. well at least it's not just a tooltip change

[Deleted]

Spirit link totem? Tier 5? Is this gonna replace mana tide totem..?

Hope not. But looks interesting

[mistergosh]

I really hope some classes, like Mage and Shaman, get some love with this patch.

As of now, it's been disheartening.

[chrisisvacant]

Spirit link totem? Tier 5? Is this gonna replace mana tide totem..?

I can't believe you're asking that, lol.

[fangless]

tool tip typo fixes... wee.

[LordSothe]

So there's both an Amani Dragonhawk and a new Amani bear? Interesting...

[Ryuujins]

10 second silence on a single location was pretty broken. I'm not surprised by the nerf. But I am surprised that we haven't gotten any buffs yet. Our PVP is already horrible. This is just digging the hole deeper. I guess there's still time before release.
