you using the official blizz downloader or one of those mirrors posted on the wow-europe forums?

[Kaneiac]

Finally level 80 cap!

Is there a mirror for the US Patch? The BlizzTorrent is always so slow for me...calling it 10 hours when I could get 750mb down in 2, max.

hmm...so blacksmiths DO get to craft shields

Arms and Fury get some change ups, but Prot gets very little including this:

Stalwart Protector - Now named Justified Killing. Effect increased from 1/2 rage to 3/6 rage, but no longer triggers on dodging.

AND IT'S MOVED TO TIER 4 OF ARMS! I mean, What The Crazy Heck? Back to being rage starved as we get better gear for Prot Warriors?

While I'm at it, what's up with this:

Taste for Blood (New talent)- Whenever your Rend ability causes damage, you have a 10/20/30% chance of allowing the use of your Overpower ability for 5 secs.

I don't think Overpower has been changed to be usable in Berzerker Stance. Do PvP Arms Warriors do their thang in Battle Stance, maybe?

Storm Peaks and its music is just....amazing.

rune strike's bugged (along some other stuff that wasnt before) lol, cant use after spell crit or special melee abilities xD, so only normal auto attacks.

path of frost animation while riding over water is wierd, bursts of snow explode from the water every 10ft (or so) you ride.

I love the changes, there are some nerfs tho but they are more of game changes then nerfs. I think that they finally are giving love to the warriors.

Add to the undocumented changes for the druid

Feral
* Ferocious Bite damage slightly increased.

Balance
* Celestial Focus (Tier 4) reduces the casting time lost when damaged by 25/50/70% when casting wrath. (Previously reduced interrupt chance)
* Control of Nature (Tier 2) reduces casting time lost when damaged by 40/70/100% while casting Entangling Roots and Cyclone. (Previously reduced interrupt chance)

[Endless]

Finally the abomination known as mace stun is gone.

I really hope that's sarcasm.....

I'm more inclined every patch to re-roll with all this Protection murdering....
