I'm happy that Hunters will now be somewhat viable in an arena composition!

Oh and the Feral Druid crying over the past few weeks, have filled my QQ sippy-cup enough to quench my thirst for many months to come.

Been too busy the last month or so to go play on the PTR so I'm looking forward to seeing if the Ret changes will help improve anything. It'd be nice to do my dailies at Ret instead of Prot and be able to survive them.

I'm looking forward to: Rift final Beta. Followed by Rift early access/headstart!


I'm dreading: Grinding for hours and hours and hours trying to get the stupid lovely necklaces needed to finish this "What a Long, Strange, Twisted, Are-You-Nutz-Or-Just-ADHD, Journey" achievment on 4 remaining toons. I know, not really patch related... but I can't stand the thought of pouring through such long patch notes to see what else they have randomly changed that I now need to learn. So I'll focus on finishing the Love Is In The Air achievment instead.

Besides being OT, I don't understand why people think Rift is the be all and end all solution to their perceived problems with WoW. It's polished and fun, but it's basically a straight WoW clone from a game systems design and UI standpoint.

Personally, my favorite patch note was the Healing Touch change.

Healing Touch is now trained at level 78, up from level 3.

Perhaps it is because Ghostcrawler has nothing to do with Rift???

Just saying..

I was doing substantially more damage in the PUG I just ran, however not sure how much was due to changes and how much was due to luck of the draw now working . .


/hijack thread


What are Ret pallys stacking in terms of stats now and whats the order of priority?

I did a random with all guildies (so no luck buff) and noticed that on some trash packs I could hit 9k DPS. That's 4k DPS more than I was doing on those same trash packs on Monday

STR for gems unless the socket bonus is super awesome or you're trying to activate a meta
STR for enchants as much as possible
Reforging - Hit(cap) > Exp(Cap) > Mastery > Crit > Haste

I don't, just a new world to run around in for a while. I do have hope the multi-soul/quad-spec feature will save me from my altoholic tendancies for once.


But I'll keep a couple WoW 60-day game cards around for when the shine wears off.
