A helpful bug for disc priests in the Battlegrounds is that inner focus isn't being consumed when a single spirit is cast so you can self buff without mana loss (cast Inner Focus followed by Divine Spirit and then Fort). I believe it has been reported already.

Shadow Embrace affects party members? I thought it was only the warlock.

I haven't seen this mentioned elsewhere, but I appear to have abandoned all quests. I've got a bit of digging to do to make sure that it isn't a display issue, but I'm pretty sure it isn't. My character also disappeared, but for right now I'm going to assume that's the new video card.

I wouldn't count on it. If you have any abilities that are showing up as ? or item links you can't click on, you may as well reinstall. I have no idea how to cure that bug once it's shown up, but nuking your cache and WTF/WDB folders does not fix it. They haven't consolidated the patches yet either, patching twice is awesome.

Well, the repair util should be up by the week's end according to the Tech. Support forums. For me, it's just my character. No unknown entities, I only get question marks when I log in to an immediate disconnect, which is about par for patch times.

600 AP is approximately half of a KT faming rogues total unbuffed AP.
If they feel like they're doing less damage, figure out what spec they are - and what key talents they're missing. Picking up any of the new 41st talents means you're almost guaranteed to be missing out on some other key stuff.

Actually deleting my WTF folder is exactly what fixed it for me. Also fixes the problem if you for some reason see everyone running around naked/half naked. But you have to remember to delete the WTF folder, relog onto you char, log out and 'then' install your new mods; else for some reason you will get the error again. If you nuke the WTF folder and install new mods before logging back into your char and logging out the problem will reoccur. (Or atleast for me it did).

I wonder if the AoE nerf applies to demo shout? Maybe if you hit more than 10 targets it stops having any effect?

I'll also go Shenanigans. I -gained- 65AP, before I even touched a single talent. If it's just a 'less damage in relation to 'x'' thing, well .. A lot of classes got buffs, and rogues are pretty much about where they were before. I gained a little bit more damage, but not as much as hunters or mages did, for example, if they talented right.

If live is using the PTR code, then the AoE nerf is not currently in the game. I haven't heard any remarks about Gluth or Nef phase 2, so it should be ok. Also, the AoE nerf is not a cap at 10 targets. Instead, it's a limit on the maximum damage a single non-channeled AoE spell can do. When the cap is reached, the damage is divided evenly between each target.

I assume you noticed the number of AV's up and running has increased from 7 at any given time to, say, 60? WRT the "no matter which one I choose" statement, the games probably overriding that to get you into any game based on the sheer number of people trying to queue across your battlegroup.

Messing around on my rogue alt last night I noticed the quest log now allows you to have 25 quests instead of 20. I didn't see that documented anywhere.
Also there is a bug with the key ring where if you fill the bottom slots close it and reopen it you will have an extra row added. I got up to around 20 rows before I got bored with it.

As I wrote in another thread, threat from Demoralizing Shout now seems to be divided evenly between the mobs it affects, rather than being applied to each one equally.
I also have a sneaking suspicion (given the results from the EU warrior forum about Cleave) that the same is true for other AE abilities with innate threat, but have not confirmed or refuted that conjecture.

Ignite *is* broken. If you crit a second time before the first ignite debuff is applied (basically, 2 crits at the same time without Ignite already on the mob) you will get credit for the second crit but not the first.

Not really a bug, seems more like an unintended side effect of the key ring's new dynamic resizing feature.

Link please?
The biggest gripe that protection warriors have on beta is that their aoe tanking abilities are severely limited/lacking compared to druids and paladins, so I'd find it _astounding_ if they were to nerf even further our only remotely effective way of doing so by reducing the threat component of cleave.

|
Is the cap by spell-line or by rank? Because, hypothetically, with enough +dmg you could downrank your AE and do the same damage in a large group AoE (10+ targets). That'd be odd.

This is working as intended, as this is how Deep Wounds works.

The Washington Post helps perpetuate a common and pernicious misreading of the decision, referring to "the Supreme Court’s judgment that corporations have the same rights as people when it comes to political speech." What the Supreme Court actually said is that people do not lose their free speech rights when they organize as corporations, including nonprofit interest groups as well as businesses.

Weird. I tested this earlier today and got credit for both crits on Ignite. Maybe it's happening intermittantly or something?

An unforseen complication of the BS nerf perhaps? Silly if it's intended.
I noticed the pvp mounts now require 150 riding, my alts feel bummed out on that one. Mounts earned pre-patch are still req. 75.

My character is no longer invisible, but I've yet to meet anyone else who had their quest log completely wiped. Not that it really matters; I don't need that BP of the Chromatic Flight.
Edit: 12/8 my quests showed back up. Crazy.

Or they're both broken. You're ok with losing damage in this fashion? Maybe it's harder for warriors to do this but I can tell you as a fire mage witih combustion this is very easy. We intentionally try to land multiple fire spells at the same time for burst damage.

Your crits have to be close together, within about half a second or less. Basically your second crit has to land before the ignite from your first crit is applied, and the mob has to not already have an ignite of yours running.
