&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As for the intro - pretty nice artwork there, it's flashy enough, and not annoyingly long either!

There's no way in hell they're going to put MS and manadrain on the same class, is there? 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The video intro is pretty spiffy.

It answered a couple of questions people have been bugging me about in my 2.3/2.4/expansion guide&amp;nbsp;:-)
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And the intro looked good.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="cb"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://my.curse.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=35314" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>GC2007: Interview With Jeff "Tigole" Kaplan</title><link>http://my.curse.com/blogs/wow-en-interviews/archive/2008/09/17/N2842Id.aspx#35313</link><pubDate>Sat, 25 Aug 2007 09:46:14 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">045f8e2a-3b25-43b2-9769-9c60de2974e3:35313</guid><dc:creator>Taldren</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;OMG ... Ranged Mortal Strike for hunters?!? WTF ... Health debuffs completely screw over the viability of healers. That is all healers can DO is heal and you are destroying their viability by a spammable non-removable debuff?? Mortal Strike, Wounding Poison, and Unstable Affliction wasn't enough of an *** raping for support spec/classes that you want to continue the PvP trend of being DPS heavy in the arenas.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What the hell is people's adversion to allowing healers to BE HEALERS as well as their problem with longer battles?
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So where is priests unremovable ranged 50% DPS debuff? If I cut all warlocks/mages DPS by 50% for the same mana cost or Warriors/Rogues DPS by 50% for the same Energy/Rage cost they would finally have some understand how BS Healing debuffing is.

Runs more smoothly then the current one. And two thumbs up to Jeff who`s not afraid to bite back if u taunt him too much imo&amp;nbsp;:)witch is healthy as always cause his the most /loved or whatever person from Blizzy . Stop bitching about my Hunter class too btw its bad enough that only a few of us get to actually raid HighEnd(exluding farmers/stupid children/or man whores who make this class so hated and disliked,they can suck my Mount)Cheers.
