With 9 others from my guild, I went and killed 5 bosses that were open for beta testing over the past two days. I did them all as Resto. I will try to get longer comments out at some point, but, here's a video of one of the more fun fights:
YouTube - Cataclysm Raid Test: Bastion of Twilight, Twin Dragons

Very briefly:
--Still healing almost entirely with HoT's and instants.
--But mana is a factor. You can see me pacing myself through the fight.
--There's...

Just a quick list of potential bugs I can think of. I'll add more as I think of them or people remind me and then try to send them to Blizzard.

--If Shooting Stars procs while...

I spent a long time last night retesting essentially all of the Balance spells to see how they'd been affected. Here are the results:
--Insect Swarm base damage and coefficient reduced by 50% (122 base damage per tick, 0.13 coefficient). This one many people noticed right away.
--The other big one: Moonfury is now...
