** Official WoW Catalysm Alpha/Beta Thread **

Well my enhancement shaman has totally changed now. Gone from 23k health to 30k, and lost 50% of my mana. Seems completely different, really dont know what to say.

12k dps and the occasional 73k instant cast crit apparently :D
 
There where some funny bugs reported already.

"If a warrior reflects a sheep, the sheep will not break on damage (hilarity ensues)."
"Happened on two occasions now that if i create a refreshment table and someone clicks on it, it causes the group to disconect / crash."

Were where?
 
Right, I have never used anything other than the standard interface, now seems as good a time as any to change that.

Anyone recommend an add-on to replace the standard interface?

Bartender 4 :)

Its had an update today so should be working, I'd give it a day yet though to work out bugs.
 
The mage changes have made leveling my lvl31 mage a total joke. The two procs I can use are almost totally pointless, arcane missiles are mana free but do less damage in the same time as just casting Frostbolt. Fingure of Frost makes my next ice lance crit but again it's less than a Frostbolt so the cast time saving is almost totally negligible although it is more mana efficient.

But that's the other main thing, my health has jumped up and I simply can't get below 80% mana so I have zero dowmtime just single target grinding though mobs my own level. The pet can take on an enemy of the same level and win + he is healed from my damage spells so is almost totally impossible to loose.

Between pet Freeze, Frost Nova and Cone of Cold which all freeze the target I can kite any solo enemy without taking any damage including elites with double my health.

And they have removed any way of AOE grinding at lower levels so I'm effectively reduced to pressing one button with almost no possible way to die :o they have turned me in to a Super Hunter. What the hell. Think I'll need to try out the other two specs.

My UI i used is broke with the update and the site for it is down gay i hate stock UI.

Downloading Recount now to see how bad my hunter is with the changes, BM looks like the best choice with corehound having BL only downside no cobra shot
 
Resubbed for the first time in little over half a year, absolutely loving the changes across the board. Been playing my low level balance druid, will take some time to get my head around the eclipses. Very fun gameplay!
 
How is DK dps doing at the moment ?

I spent most of last night a) downloading the extra 1.74gb of patch :( and b) trying to sort out my UI because the standard one is awful.
 
Pretty much all melee and hunter dps is miles behind caster dps, already talk of nerfing casters from Blizz to rebalance it.

Makes you think what they've been doing on the PTR the past couple of months.
 
I know one of my guildies was moaning to hell and back about warriors and how crap he thinks it is now.

He went from doing an average of 8-9k dps down to about 5-6. Furry warr btw. That seems like a stupidly big blow.
 
I think my Prot Pala is awful now. Holy side of things seems a tad confusing but will give that a go when i get the Alpha of Healbot.

Mage seems the same.

Yeah Pallys are broken. I have about 4 skills that you can really use - putting a 36 second wait on consecration was madness.

I used to have 5 packed bars now I'm down to 2 the blessings are stupid, the seals are awful having one judgement (called judgement funily enough) is just mad.

I did my first five man - I started off with Avengers shield and as soon as that hit I was loosing threat - the other guys hadn't even started. The boss fight, well I may as well have been DPS.

Awful patch for pallys.
