Rather than a lair boss, it's entirely possible to just have multiple boss encounters that are Deathwing. You enter his domain, and he's the first encounter. There's a bit of a fight, and the...

The shattering has led to very limited resources. It could be reasoned that, in this post-shattering environment, Theramore has become more dependent on trade from Stormwind. That would certainly put...

Starfall is only ten seconds (unless glyphed), and CANNOT be dispelled. It'll be hard to rationalize taking it after the patch. I run with a mage in 2s, and it's pretty good at screwing up the CC.

I figured the buff was from tenacity, as I sometimes get it just by zoning in.

Also, has anyone seen the Siege Engine cannon detaching? Saw it for the first time last night.

Wintergrasp has a two-hour or so "cooldown" when the game ends. While the game does have a preset end time (I think it's 45 minutes), it can end sooner than that. It would be nice if hovering over...

I don't see anything weird about 10-manning Arthas or such. The 10-mans can still be challenging, and there will likely be races to beat them. But, that's not 25-manning it, and thus people will...

Divine Illumination is the 50% mana reduction buff. I almost want to say that this means regular illumination won't go off when it's active.

On trash I pretty much have to chug mana pots to keep up. Now, I can drink in certain places, but with ZA's timed run it's a potential time waster to have to slow down for mana.

I divided it by 7.8 and multiplied that number by 0.5.

I did NOT remove any decimals, so the number is inaccurate to some degree.

So, would this make Bracers of the Ancient Phalanx a very desirable upgrade? A good 1.4% or so parry/dodge reduction (2.8% total).

Rogue and hunter box, as I believe the hunter box is the only one with a two-hander in it (well, besides staves).

I'm a bit disappointed they gave us each a box with one spec in mind.
