hard to say how weak they'll be without seeing the new 25 man raids. if anything, there may be a lot of fights that'll benefit from the control an aoe scatter shot/extra slow can offer.

The new talents sure sound fun if they are real. I guess we will see when they start beta :)

Any word on the hunter ones? :p

nothing else on locks :( but soul shatter does seem pretty nice. i imagine it'll work like fade where if you pull aggro and use it, you'll insta drop by 30% on the aggro list and whatever mob was on you will switch to someone else.

Ughh alot of the mage stuff sure does sound geared towards group pvp with all of these reduce chance to hit and crit and slows and the increase speed + immun to slowing effects. Sure makes me wonder what the melee classes are getting, if anything to counter this.

As well as not knowing how those talents will play in a 25 man raid, often the 31(or 41 I guess) point talents are not necessairly the ones that are awesome. Often it is the ones right before that.

Prediction: Mind Mastery nerfed to affect only arcane damage, if these "leaks" are in fact valid.

EDIT:
Idiotic if true. Add mana drain poisons, health leech poisons, low-procrate "purge" poisons...

Threat isn't really an area for us that the expansion should be heavily focused on improving.

I hope to god they don't put in fights that require Xmages all specced for X 41 point talent...

Might as well put in a boss that can only take damage from Shield Slam.

Require, no, but you can see how an aoe disorient would be useful on an encounter like Gluth - that's probably what he means. Which is why I said that wouldn't apply to a single target slow. There's a billion ways to slow single targets already, that's nothing special. It's only special because it probably has decent range and it's instant cast - but really, that isn't much of a 41-pt talent in the first place.

Mutilate sounds like a very nice CP generator for combat dagger rogues. As long as those skills are not fake.
