** Official WoW Catalysm Alpha/Beta Thread **

Shadow Priest's Mind Sear seems a bit broken at the moment. The best dps against groups now seems to be to Glyph Holy Nova, DOT up the mobs and then run around like an idiot spamming Holy Nova and generating Shadowy Apparitions.
 
Ugh, I got fed up reading the posts on WoW forums. It's like those who play druid (who like the patch) live on another planet, they actually like the swipe cooldown?

They have dumbed down tankadin leveling. At level 24 I get to consecrate and then hit some yellowy button, oh and generate some holy power to.... wait for it...... heal someone.
 
everything is so confusing now, they should have just left it as it is with more immersive content.

I know allot of the original players fed up and leaving.
Social tab is hard to find so you have to resort and press O.

and melee are crap.
 
Ditched some of my haste reforged into mastery.
Left gems/enchs the same.

SV Hunter 5.7k gs, rotations is awkward and I cant even hit 5k dps on training dummy :(
That was with DPS pet, Elixir of Agi and Fish feast :(

might be the time to Try MM

The Social tab is attached to the friends button on the chat frame, not hard to find at all.

Survival is balanced around having Cobra Shot to extend the duration of Serpent Sting, having to use Serpent Sting more than once for a single target fight is requiring Survival Hunters to use more focus than they should have to.

Theres nothing really wrong with the swipe cooldown, takes some getting used to. Nice to actually have to think a little about ability use while tanking instead of having such a rigid rotation you can do the entire thing in a castsequence macro.

Also complaining about lvl24 paladin tanking is a bit stupid. Before this patch a pally tank at that level would consist of auto attack, judgement and consecration.

I remember soloing much of SFK as a low level paladin. (Can't remember what level I was, I know the mobs were yellow to me most of the time though). I was prot.

Was kinda awesome. :p

BTW - I'm talking about WOTLK; obviously.
 
Shadow is so powerful now. I have 2pc 264 set.. then mostly my Disc healing gear with 20 Int gems so not very impressive stats wise, nor a very good rotation and I managed around 7k on a dummy. I was doing about 4.5k before patch.
 
Trying to level a new Unholy DK on a RP-PVP realm, levelling mining/herbalism for profit and it's not allowing me to pick flowers due to a bug =[
 
Played Unholy DK in 3.0 till 3.1 and I loved them then, Unholy presence was like crusader aura and ressing to finish a boss off was cool. I do like the new ghoul stuff.
 
it was obvious playing the alpha that casters where going to be imba in cata.

it just looking like hunter's are broken at the moment in pvp even at 85.

was going to be a worgen huntard but might not now. Its a definate choice between warlock of mage for my gobbo.

still about 2 months for bliz to balance stuff out, i doubt they have done tweaking everyone yet, hunters might be ok by release
 
Melee isn't so bad now.

On patch day my Fury Warrior was doing 5.5k, since the change was made to some melee I now deal 13k on the 83 boss target dummy.

Warrior wasn't the only melee buffed, a few others were as well. Info can be found on MMO-Champion.
