PTR 2.3 patch notes, directly ripped from here

 

 

 

[hide]Zul'Aman

 

 

 

 

 

Zul'Aman is a 10-player, level 70 outdoor instance located in the Ghostlands. Players will be able to confront six new bosses including the Forest Troll Warlord Zul'jin.

 

Guild Banks Introduced

 

 

 

 

 

The Guild Bank is a shared repository for an entire guild and will be accessible through new NPC's called guild bankers. The Guild Bank will allow players with the appropriate permissions to store items and money for use by the rest of the guild. Permissions to withdraw and deposit money and items are controlled by the guild leader through the guild controls menu. The Guild Bank is divided up into separate tabs so that the guild leader may restrict access or group items into distinct categories.

 

Up to 6 purchasable tabs each containing 98 item slots

 

Permissions to view/deposit/withdraw per tab

 

You may use your Guild Bank withdraw limits to pay for item repairs (now enabled on all merchants)

 

Transaction logs of the last 50 actions in the bank viewable on a per tab basis

 

General

 

 

 

Experience: The amount of experience needed to gain a level has been decreased between levels 20 and 60. In addition, the amount of experience granted by quests has been increased between levels 30 and 60.

 

Expertise: We have added a new stat and associated rating called expertise and expertise rating. Expertise rating converts to expertise at the same rate that weapon skill rating formerly converted at. Each point of expertise reduces the chance for your attacks to be dodged or parried by 0.25%.

 

Healing reduction effects will now affect all health drain spells and abilities (e.g. Mortal Strike will reduce health gained from Drain Life).

 

Healing: Almost all items and enchantments that provide bonus healing now also provide a smaller number (approximately 1/3) of bonus spell damage. There are a few items and enchantments where this was not possible, such as random-stat items and Zul'Gurub enchantments, but this is now the case on virtually all other items.

 

On Kill Effects: Items and abilities that trigger on killing an enemy will no longer trigger on using an ability that kills your pet.

 

Weapon Skill: All items and abilities that granted weapon skill have been changed. In most cases, they were converted to expertise or expertise rating. Ranged attacks do not benefit from expertise, so ranged weapon skill has generally been replaced by critical strike bonuses or hit bonuses. In a few cases, talents have been changed to other effects to avoid granting players excessive amounts of expertise.

 

A new flight path has been added to the Rebel Camp in northern Stranglethorn Vale.

 

Flying units can see ground units and vice versa at any altitude.

 

Players no longer gain the moving AOE radius bonus if they are jumping.

 

Client spell cast requests are now sent to the server even if your player is already casting another spell. This eliminates the need for /stopcasting in macros to compensate for latency.

 

Vendor Discounts: All vendors with an associate faction now give discounts at all levels above neutral.

 

Friendly: 5% discount

 

Honored: 10% discount

 

Revered: 15% discount

 

Exalted: 20% discount

 

Quest givers who have available daily quests will have a blue exclamation point instead of a yellow one.

 

Pets will try to get behind their targets when engaging in melee combat.

Dwarf: Gun Specialization now increases chance to critically hit with Guns by 1% rather than increasing weapon skill.

 

Gnome: Escape Artist cooldown increased to 1 min, 45 sec.

Upon conclusion of the battle, bonus honor is also awarded for intact towers, a surviving Captain, and for victory in the battle. The total bonus honor awarded should be similar to the previous total.

 

The Horde and Alliance now have a limited number of reinforcements available in the battle for Alterac Valley. The number of reinforcements available is reduced upon player death, loss of towers, and death of Captain Galvangar or Balinda Stonehearth. In addition, all available reinforcements are lost upon the death of General Drek'Thar or Vanndar Stormpike. If a team is reduced to zero reinforcements, the opposing team wins the battle.

When you have an outgoing mail open, you can right-click on items to attach them to that outgoing mail.

 

When you have a trade window open, you can right-click an item to move it to the trade window.

 

When you have unopened mail, you can mouse over the recent mail icon and get the name of the people who most recently sent you the mail.

 

When you speak with an NPC with a single function (Banker, Flight Master, Etc) and who has no other gossip options or quests you will go straight to their functional pane rather than to the gossip pane. Most importantly this means that clicking on a flight master will bring up the flight path map directly rather than the gossip pane with the option to bring up the flight path map.

 

Quests that are much below your level will now have the tag (Low Level) in the gossip pane attached to the quest. This will make it easier to tell which quest to accept when a quest giver has both low and high level quests.

 

You can now set the loot threshold (/threshold) with a word as well as the loot threshold number for an instance-

 

/threshold Epic- also sets the party loot threshold to Epic items or better quality

 

/threshold Rare-sets the party loot threshold to Rare items or better quality

 

Corpses that belong to someone in your party, but that you cannot loot will say in the corpse mouseover who has loot rights on that corpse. This will help skinners who want to know who to talk to in order to skin their corpse, as well as master looters when special loot drops on a normal monster. Everyone will then see that there is a monster that the master looter has loot rights on.

 

The raid panes that have been pulled out into the gamefield should save their option settings between sessions now.

 

When raid bosses send an important message to the center of your screen it will be larger and have an effect that makes it more noticeable.

 

The raid warning command now appears in a larger font in the center screen and grows and shrinks slightly when it appears to make it more noticeable.

 

NPCs with a single function will now display an icon that indicates their function on mouseover.

 

When an Addon attempts to perform an action that is prohibited in combat, you will get a chat message "Interface action failed because of an AddOn". This only occurs once per login.

 

Many interface elements now display players in their class color so you can easily recognize what class a player is. Interface elements affected by this are LFG, Channel UI, Guild and Who.

 

The value of the TargetNearestDistance setting is validated at load time.

 

If a non-standard refresh rate is selected in the video options, it will now be saved.

 

Many On Use items now display the cooldown in the item tooltip.

 

The tooltip for Block on the character sheet now displays the amount of damage reduced by a successful block.

 

New macro commands: /targetlastenemy, /targetlastfriend

 

New macro command to target by entire name: /targetexact

 

For more details on UI macro and scripting changes, see the UI & Macro forum.

 

World Environment

 

 

 

Stranglethorn Vale

 

Saltscale Tide-Lords no longer have frost nova

 

The fear on Mosh'ogg Lords is reduced

 

Lowered the fireball damage of Defias Pillagers

 

Increased the cooldowns on the heals of Kurzen Medicine Men

 

The standard Disarm ability that many creatures use now has a duration of 5 seconds instead of 6 seconds.

 

Sonic Burst now silences for 6 seconds instead of 10.

 

Bug Fixes

 

 

 

An issue with spawn rates in Forge Camp: Terror and Forge Camp: Wrath has been fixed.

 

Fixed the position of one of the Box of Mushrooms objects at Ango'rosh Stronghold for the quest, "Stealing Back the Mushrooms".

 

Fixed the position of a mineral node in the Blade's Edge Mountains so that it is no longer floating in the air.

 

Fixed a problem with the directions in the quest, "The Ultimate Bloodsport".

 

Fixed a bug in the pet sheet stamina mouseover tooltip that showed an incorrect health increase value.

 

Fixed an issue with aura stacking and debuff cooldowns when reapplying a debuff after being charmed.

 

Libram of Saints Departed: This relic now functions properly again. [/hide]

 

 

 

Personal favourites - not counting new dungeon with new ph4t l3wt -include the guild banks, dungeon dailies, cooking dailies, grounding totem fix/nerf (... such a sure way of pissing of a warlock that was), the AH changes, the Seed of Corruption LoS fix, the Shadow ward scaling with spell damage (though I still don't see why they won't give us another rank).

 

 

 

Least favourites include the Soul Siphon talent nerf (nerfing affliction _talents_ won't fix SL/SL any more than nerfing affliction spells) or the potions-for-apexis-shards - yes, let's nerf alchemy more, heywait?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A fun one, that isn't of much use, is the one about being able to see who has looting rights when in a group. Not sure how many of you got to experience Molten Core's "LOOT THE DOG, OR THIS RAID DOESN'T MOVE!" but it's a change that brought a fair few flashbacks for me :)

[Bubsa]

Client spell cast requests are now sent to the server even if your player is already casting another spell. This eliminates the need for /stopcasting in macros to compensate for latency.

 

That's handy :)

[kido14]

Lol I like how they nerfed Hellfire as if anyone actually used it. The only use it DID have was stopping people from capping nodes for a ridiculously high mana cost I might add. Oh wait they got rid of that so now there is no use for Hellfire. Might as well get rid of it IMO

Its a nerf but absolutely needed. Why MS never worked for your drains before was beyond me.

[BlueTear]

Its a nerf but absolutely needed. Why MS never worked for your drains before was beyond me.

Actually, I was refering to the Soul Siphon nerf - our drain mana no longer benefits from it, and more dots are required to reach the maximum effect. In a 1v1 with an SL/SL warlock, I think that nerf means a 4% damage reduction on drain life. But it will lower Drain Life scaling in raids, which is what's really pissy because they buffed that for a reason back when they remade our talents.

 

 

 

The reason I didn't mention the drains nerf is that I think it's generally quite [developmentally delayed]ed. You screw over affliction warlocks in an effort to balance SL/SL warlocks, but do it in a manner that preserves our strenght against classes we are already strong against and tone it down against classes we are weak against. Mortal strike preventing affected a 5K single heal is hawt. Out of 15 seconds of uninterrupted draining (which never happends) Mortal Strike is going to mean less than 2700 hp less with full draining and siphon life going. Enough to piss off an affliction warlock, but not really enough to chew into the margin of a SL/SL warlock, because their greatest strenght is still the fact that as long as the demon is alive their effective HP goes up by a flat 20%. That's 200 for every 1K of health, leaving a 12K warlock with Soul Link at 2400hp effective hp, discounting armour. It also means that every point of healing that gets through - after being upadjusted by 20% from Fel Armour - requires 1.2 points of damage to negate.

 

 

 

What makes drain life so dangerous is not the healing effect, but the way in which it does damage. If I cast an uninterrupted string of Shadowbolts for 15 seconds I'll do X damage. If something is hitting on me for the same 15 seconds, my DPS will drop due to pushbacks (less so if I'm destruction, but drain life is affliction). If my opponent can move around, there's a fair chance my DPS will drop due to "must face your target" or in more specific situations, Line of Sight. The important thing to remember is the fact that spell pushbacks lowers my damage output.

 

 

 

Not so with drain life. Spell pushback on drain life means I need to recast it more often, which means my damage per mana goes down. My DPS however, is compared to shadowbolt, quite unaffected, and that's what I'm really killing with.

 

 

 

Now, unless all the chatter of how much HP an SL/SL specced warlock has left after a fight is just whining hyperbole, the margins introduced here - again, on affliction spells - are not going to make a significant difference. Affliction warlocks will be nerfed, and SL/SL warlocks will still be overpowered.

 

 

 

Makes no sense, and while the developers sees "how it pans out", no actual balance fixes are introduced on a specc that draws primarily of demonology. If people weren't so busy cheering over "warlock nerfs" they'd realize what really just happened is that SL/SL warlocks got another patchs' worth of respite until they finally get balanced, which is another, what, six to eight weeks worth of being overpowered. Oh, and this affliction warlock nerf, only really works in fights against two classes too, the two classes that already had an easy time to rip non-SL/SL warlocks to shreds.

[Darksavior69]

You're wrong, the strength of SL/SL warlocks was their survivability and ability to outlast through drain life spam and draining mana when possible. Teams with SL/SL warlocks run an outlast game, they don't win by burst or killing people. Being someone who got gladiator with an affliction warlock in season 1, he only used drain life as a last resort to keep himself alive if I couldn't heal him. And in raids thats pretty much the extent of its use also.

I guess you're just ignoring then that the most popular SL warlock spec is heavly based around drain life as well, right?

"Was"? How does this change influence the ability of an SL/SL warlock to kill a druid, priest, mage, shaman, paladin, hunter, heck other warlocks? Not at all. What are you saying here, that SL/SL against all those classes is balanced? That as long as warriors and rogues have a shot, no further nerfs are neccesary?

 

 

 

The strenght of SL/SL warlocks is spelled Demonic Resilience, Soul Link and Master Demonologist. The green beam people see lancing out from the warlock is just a lot easier to blame deaths on 'cause unlike the other buffs, you can see it.

 

 

 

I guess you're just ignoring then that the most popular SL warlock spec is heavly based around drain life as well, right?

Not more than you're ignoring the fact that you don't specc 30+ points in Demonology because affliction rocks, or the fact that there's only two classes with mortal strike effects.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The one hour delay on AH gold was made so it'd be easier for Blizzard to track gold being transfered in illicit transactions like gold selling or distributing stolen items.

87% chance you'll never type http://www.runescape.com after you try WoW.

 

Heh, I thought you say something like that. :P

 

But my problem in WoW is going to be communicating with other players, like in guilds, raids, etc. In runescape I'm usually very quite and prefer playing on my own. But in WoW, do I need to be in guilds and raids to get the good stuff and get the main experience from the game? Becuase that's kinda putting me off.

 

What I am looking forward to doing is just exploring and doing quests (I know they are hundreds of quests!) and maybe just helping out another player in battle.

 

Oh and is there something wrong being in the alliance? Because from what I've heard so far from the WoW community is that Horde is ownage and Alliance is full of noobs, why is that? And Paladins are the noobiest class. Am I going to get hated for just being a Human Paladin when I start WoW? :?

you really think so? I mean, sure if you want to roll hunter or lock or rogue and PvP the entire thing i suppose so... but endgame isn't soloable in the least. and instances arent soloable either. If you play solo you'd miss out 90 odd percent of the game.

[biox]

In regard to the question on factions, don't listen to the community.

 

 

 

If you do, you'll think that all female human and/or blood elf warlocks are fat guys in their parents basements, all hunters are 10 years old, all rogues are loudmouthed smartasses, all.. you get the idea.

 

 

 

There's absolutely nothing wrong with being a human pally. I knew lots of them and they were normal people who could play reasonably well.

[adam_ross0]

I have a few questions about World of Warcraft..this IS the official WoW thread, so hopefully someone can answer it here rather than other message boards where I got the generic "I hate that game, dont play it" responses. Thanks =)

 

 

 

Anyways..onto the questions.

 

 

 

1. What video requirements should I have? I have an Integrated 64mb video card..and I've played both Morrowind and Guild wars, which have the same requirements. In Guild Wars, I had a horrible framerate due to the graphical lag. However, in Morrowind, the only real lag I get is REALLY flashy spells and sometimes, the armor has a small error..barely noticeable though. If I can run Morrowind smoothly, but Guild Wars terribly..should I attempt WoW?

 

 

 

2. Memory: I've heard that WOW requires 256MB and 512MB and 1GB..I have only 448mb RAM. Could I play WoW on 448MB Ram?

 

 

 

3. Game Cards: My mom and dad are REALLY edgy on credit card payments....they did it for RuneScape, and they hated paying then. So, how do gamecards work? I heard I just buy the card, input the code on the site, and *BAM* I have 2 months. Is this exactly how it works?

 

 

 

Thanks everybody :)

[RebelAssassin]

you can play wow on a low end PC, but i dont think intergrated graphics will cut it, i think you may be just about to play it with that ram. and you are correct about how gamecards work.

[Necromagus]

I guess this is as good a place to ask as any... I was at a store today noticing WoW being sold for ÃÆââââ¬Ã¡Ãâì14,99. Does anyone know if this package (or anything similar) comes with any kind of trial period? I couldn't tell from the box and didn't want to put down ÃÆââââ¬Ã¡Ãâì26,99 for the two month prepaid card right away... ÃÆââââ¬Ã¡Ãâì42 is almost as much as a new DS game.
