'New Calendar feature: Players will be able to access the new Calendar feature by clicking on the new icon located in the top right corner of their mini map. The calendar will track in game events, allow raid scheduling, and more.'

ROFL i guess that means Goodbye to Group Calendar. Gotta love how they can legally steal someone elses work.

Worst part is that they never manage to do as good a do as the original (e.g. Raid Assist was much etter then what blizz have done)

Also...
"Divine Protection now reduces all damage taken by 50% and increases time between attacks by 100%."
"Judgement has been replaced with 3 new spells"
"All Seals have been reduced to 1 rank and now cost 14% of base mana"

! I don't have time to roll a new class -.- Goodbye WoW and hello private servers...

I thought it was 20%/40%? Damn why do pallies have to get nerfed all the time? You started by killing them at 1.6 and ever since, I don't believe I have seen a patch over which I did NOT cry xO

Warlocks get stronger, pallys get screwed. Sounds like wow wants people to stop playing.

As a note to Shaman players, one thing that Blizzard has been forgetting to include in the patch notes is a change to how shamans gain Attack Power. Shamans will now gain 1 AP from Strength and 1 AP from Agility. Also, the amount of agility per critical strike chance has been raised from 20 to 30 (note that one report also says 40... so I'm not entirely sure on this).

Here's the referenced WotLK beta thread (has blue response as well):

So now you don't have to feel so bad about stealin' all that nice rogue leather ;).

Also, I'm not so sure why people are saying that Warlocks are getting stronger? They're lowering the damage bonus for sacrificing your succubus/imp, which is going to lower the damage output on 0/21/40 Warlocks. They're also hurting some of the Warlocks PVP aspects such as the Felhunter's overall usefulness in PVP, Nether Protection was great against fire mages, other warlocks and shadow priests, but now it won't be as good.

Although, I don't think most warlocks will complain about the Fel Armor buff overall. They may not have high spirit now, but who knows how that will change in WotLK. Also, the mana regen isn't exactly something to complain about :P. So essentially, locks are being hit in some areas and boosted in some necessary areas... like mana regen.

How about making the AMMO slot the QUIVER/AMMO POUCH slot? It should be an equipment slot, not a bog slot. Common guys, Joo can doo eet!!!!

Ok, but I can dream, can't I?

If it makes sense, it will not happen...if it is a nerf, count on it. Murphy's law, alive and well.

Guys, just FYI -- the bubble change is for Divine Protection -- Divine Shield still works the same as before.

They're on separate cooldowns now, too.
