Alright, I will provide you and everyone else with two tidbits of information that we've not yet revealed through any source. Both of which I'm personally very excited about, and hopefully you will be as well. First, when the Burning Crusade launches, healing over time (HoTs) spells such as Rejuvenation and Renew will stack for every player casting them. For instance, if there are three priests in your group, a target could potentially receive three renews as one time. Second, we're going to be scaling Warlock and Hunter pets come expansion so that they become stronger as the player gains more statistics through itemization.

Everything ive ever said about casters ever being underpowered now taken back.


Though I still feel mages are underhanded.

And warlocks just got a whole lot more terrible.

This inspires all kinds of awesome and fear in me at the same time.

Buff warriors plz.

Yay!

No more "Your spell won't work because you didn't waste points on Improved Renew" messages!

Bah.

I was hoping they would say we get 5 more stable slots.

Still a possibility, Vuudu. I'm also hoping for some kind of buff, even a very small one, when we don't have our pet out for us Marksman hunters.

Agreed.. But what this does do is make the BM hunter actually viable now at 60 and beyond. Pets now benefit from uber gear stats as much as the hunter him/herself. Whats not to like?

they better make it larger for hunters, lower for warlocks, because warlocks have enough allready, and BM hunts can't do anything useful (as of now)

Buff warriors plz.

Seconded. All we've been is slowly nerfed and nerfed since we came out.

Next they'll tell me they're reworking rage to be a flat gain per hit. :(

Nah


But they do need to buff fury tree to make it more than "the duel wielding tree"

Not sure what you're smokin', but currently, a well-equipped fury warrior is the best PvE dpser this game has to offer. Oo;

I can't wait for the expansion, where I can MS/Death Wish/Flurry. Bwahaha!

Okay then, watch Devolution or Yog in PvP. Mortal Strike isn't all it's cracked up to be, not by a long shot. The only reason fury sucked in the past is because there wasn't enough decent and attainable gear to work the spec. Now, there is.

You can MS/Death Wish/Flurry, but you won't have tactical mastery.

Meh, there has to be some sort of drawback. I wasn't planning on putting any points into it, anyway.

Tactical Mastery should just be a skill. I mean, if paladins get consecrate as a skill now, druids got whatever as a skill, and etc, then we should just get it. It's so manditory to be a really effective warrior

zomg....my pets will be awesome.

Wait a minute....does that mean I need strength and agility gear? Well at least they will have better hit points.
