Ghostcrawler : Quote: Im so glad blizzard is taking legitimate concerns over peoples classes seriously Legitimate concerns ARE taken seriously, and this forum is full of them. Saying your class is DOOMED, DOOMED because nobody posted in your forum thread brings out a little of the silliness in all of us. Ghostcrawler Lead Syste...

Ghostcrawler : I play with this Fury warrior. His dps is quite high to the extent that he pulls a lot and then generally dies before anyone can respond. This talent is dedicated to him. Ghostcrawler Lead Systems Designer...

Ghostcrawler : Quote: As it is now, it's worthless. If you like keeping Holy Shield up, there is zero chance of using Word of Glory. The heal for Word of Glory is still insanely gimpy, even with the buff, so it's unlikely that it will be used. It's still impossible to keep Holy Shield up with great consistency. I'd buy that if Holy Shield gave you 20% damage re...

Ghostcrawler : Quote: Also, does anyone else feel like Inner Rage is more or less pointless now? It doesn't really seem to add anything to the class other than unnecessary complexity. It feels like our rage gain is stable and well-balanced enough that the balancing doesn't need to fall back on such an obvious crutch and making the cost of your abilities fluctuate...

Ghostcrawler : Quote: I am in the beta. Unless they changed it back with the latest patch, it only affect spellpower and NOT healing spellpower. I am currently downloading 12644 to take a screenshot of my character stat page, assuming you don't believe me. I'm pretty sure it affects both damage and healing. Ghostcrawler Lead S...

Crithto : I'm with Eggsandbacon, I <3 'em all! ^_^ Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is you-er than you....

Ghostcrawler : Quote: The last 3-4 weeks have been nothing but Paladin, Mage, and Warrior. Just remember that over the next few weeks when the paladin, mage and warrior are asking "When is it time for our talent review?" Ghostcrawler Lead Systems Designer...

Ghostcrawler : Mind Flay -- This is a technical explanation, but basically we had to rebuild it for Lich King to get it to benefit from haste correctly. Now that we have tech to let all periodics scale correctly with haste, we can change Mind Flay back to the way it used to work. The "latency" issues you experience today should be gone. You can just mash the Mind...

Ghostcrawler : The current Holy paladin mastery: Your healing spells also place an absorb shield on your target for X% of the amount healed lasting 6 sec. Absorb increased further by mastery rating. Ghostcrawler Lead Systems Designer...

Kalgan : Quote: Yeah, but how much is this really going to help in a raid environment? If we're taking enough damage while feared/stunned/etc that this talent really helps keep us alive, isn't the encounter going to be brutal beyond hope for specs that don't have such abilities? And if we're not taking that much damage, is the talent valuable? Especially ...

Bornakk : Quote: 6-7 months of Ragnaros and I never got Tier 2 pally pants. But I get to kill him again in Cataclysm! /gnomecackle While I did get my Tier 2 pants back in the day, it seems like each expansion there is an item slot that chooses to hate me. For Wrath it's been trinkets for sure, in The Burning Crusade I had issues with token drops like sh...

Nethaera : New realms are released as we feel they are necessary. If and when we feel we would like to release a new realm, you will be informed. ;)...

Nethaera : Every expansion, we get people asking, "what's next"? While we're always asking ourselves that, it's not something we're ready to answer right now. We're very focused to making Cataclysm another great addition to the game and once we feel we're at a good point with that, we'll begin looking more toward what would need to come after it. Let's not g...

Ghostcrawler : Elusiveness being too deep was considered a grave injustice. So we moved it up and switched it with Dirty Tricks, causing a new injustice. We'll try and find room in tier 2 for both. Ghostcrawler Lead Systems Designer...

Nethaera : You are a mighty hero of the Horde or Alliance. You've traveled all of Azeroth and Outland. You've slain dragons and faced down demons and after a long day of battle, you like to go back to your bank and stare at your most prized possession.... Noblegarden (Spring Circlet) bunny ears? What strange or odd item in your bank or inventory is YOUR mos...

Slorkuz : On August 7 and 8 the 2010 European Warcraft Invitational will take place in Cologne, Germany. The top European Warcraft III and World of Warcraft arena players will be fighting for honour and glory on stage, and we hope to see you there. To get a taste of what’s waiting for you, just head over to our 2010 European Warcraft Invitational si...

Ghostcrawler : We haven't worked on the Shadow tree much after out initial pass (that brought Shadowy Apparition et al.). We're working on it now. Please don't expect a total overhaul where every talent is redesigned, but we are taking a hard look at all of the damage talents and trying to make the talent choices more compelling (which often means harder). ...

Ghostcrawler : We're fine with totem health given how easy totems are to replace. We also think it's fine to have to (sometimes) choose between a buff totem and a non-buff totem given how many different things a shaman can do. However, we are going to increase buff totem range (and possibly other totem range) and we have figured out a way to make Searing Totem a...

Ghostcrawler : Borrowed Time is still around. Make your own lost in time joke, etc. Ghostcrawler Lead Systems Designer...

Ujumqin : Good to know =). We'll keep an eye on it. Ujumqin -Blizzard QA...
