WoW Cataclysm: Further death knight nerfs hit the patch 4.2 PTR
by Daniel Whitcomb     While we've already talked a bit about some of the changes coming for death knights on thepatch 4.2 PTR, it's been a few weeks, and we've seen more changes inbound. Not only that, some changes have slipped onto live servers a little bit early. A lot of these changes have some serious repercussions for PVP and PVE DPS death knights, ...more»

WoW Cataclysm: Examining the Druid tier 12 set bonuses
by Allison Robert   1he strength nerf in patch 4.2 is in fact a noticeable nerf to our cat brethren, even if it's not going to affect bears quite so much. Feral two-piece bonus: Your attacks with Mangle, Maul, and Shred deal 10% additional damage as Fire damage over 4 seconds. This is more oriented toward cat DPS than bears, but it mirrors a similar damage ...more»

WoW Cataclysm: Mage Patch 4.2 changes, clarifications and legendary staves
by Christian Belt   Yes, it's always a good time when I write something and the testing process immediately renders almost every word of it completely moot. Testing is testing, I guess, and absolutely everything that pops up on the PTR at pretty much any stage of the testing cycle is entirely subject to change. So remember what we talked about last week? ...more»

WoW Cataclysm: Patch 4.2 shakes up Paladin heals
by Chase Christian   I wasn't very happy with the first round of notes for patch 4.2, as they contained several holy paladin nerfs. I had originally thought that Blizzard's developers were just trying to keep holy paladin mana in line, but it looks like they actually had a few other changes up their collective sleeves. We've learned about several new mechanics that shift the balance ...more»

WoW Cataclysm: New achievements in patch 4.2
by Allison Robert   There are 16 achievements associated with the new Firelands/Mount Hyjal daily quest area, on which I have very little information right now, so we're going to examine those later. However, that still leaves us with new pet, legendary, dungeon, and anniversary achievements. Petting Zoo: Collect 100 unique companion pets. Reward: Pet Biscuits. Menagerie: Collect 125 unique companion pets. Reward: Pet Biscuits. Littlest ...more»

WoW Cataclysm: 10 things hunters should get in patch 4.2
by Brian Wood   Thus far, the patch 4.2 hunter news has been pretty light. There was the odd little tweak to the BM mastery that was most likely just a tooltip update (giving us a more precise number, rather than the rounded one) and the peek at our T12 set bonus. We know that Blizzard's process is to push things out onto the PTR ...more»

WoW Cataclysm: Breaking down Rogue tier 12 armor set
by Chase Christian   In case you haven't heard, the upcoming patch 4.2 is currently on the PTR. The patch notes currently include a ton of important rogue changes. First of all, Blind is getting buffed. In PvE situations, it will now last up to a minute. Also, Blizzard is unbuffing Stealth for rogues a bit, as Stealth will start its cooldown upon leaving Stealth, not entering ...more»

WoW Cataclysm: Will patch 4.2 redefine what it means to be a shadow priest?
by Fox Van Allen     The patch notes, which detail a 12%, across-the-board cut to DOTs (and an accompanying 12% across-the-board buff to direct damage spells), represents the first major change for shadow priests to come out of the PTR. But what exactly does the change mean, and why was it done? Are shadow priests going to lag behind in patch 4.2? Are ...more»

WoW Cataclysm: Restoration Shaman PTR patch 4.2 changes
by Joe Perez   We talked more about raiding as a restoration shaman through the next set of bosses, and this week, we had been planning to continue the series by talking about some bosses that are full of hot wind. However, recent changes on the latest PTR build are worthy of some review and analysis. Today, we're going to talk about some changes ...more»

WoW Cataclysm: A look at the latest patch 4.2 news for death knights
by Daniel Whitcomb   There was one big issue that the patch 4.2 PTR hadn't addressed: the discrepancy between frost and unholy death knight DPS. Just like that, Blizzard seems to have heard and has in fact both changed the tier 12 set bonuses and added a few changes to the patch notes that mostly seem tailor-made to address that gap. Let's take a look ...more»
