It's Patch Day! Here are some quick notes:
Spirtual Attunement - This works with overhealing!!! Greatest paladin ability ever!
Enchanting menu - much, much needed change. Being able to sort enchants by slot was sorely needed.
Looking For Group menu - looks pretty nice. As always, depends how people use it.
New paladin animations - Blessing of Wisdom is so pretty. I like!
Faster backwards walking - rather unexpected, but pretty nice. Much easier than doing strafing tricks. Should be nice with a mage and Frost Nova.
Buying new spell ranks automatically upgrades your icons on your bars - I love this. I missed this so much when I rerolled from warrior.
Buffs automatically cast correct version on low rank people - Yay for drive-by buffing!
More detailed character info - Very, very nice. More information is always good, and this should stop the debates and guesswork about things like Int to Spell Crit.
All in all, it looks like a very solid patch. Lots of little changes as well.
I respecced 10/0/41, but haven't really gotten a chance to try it out. I have high hopes for Sanctified Crusader and Improved Sanctity Aura. I may end up switching back to something else, but none of the other paladins seemed interested in going Retribution. I really want to see the effect of Sanctified Crusader in a raid.
The biggest decision is still to be made: do I enable my PvP title (Knight-Captain) or not? It is a good rank to display, and has a good sound to it (Knight-Captain Coriel), but it's not a very prestigious title (like Grand Marshal, for instance).
Heh, I haven't even looked at the options for my warlock yet.
I'm in the same boat as you pretty much. I went, apprehensively, with 10/0/41. The most challenging thing for me was actually figuring out where to put all the new abilities on my bars.
ReplyDeleteAlso, my one level 60 alt is a warlock, into whose changes I too have barely looked.
I ended up going 34/17/0. While I would have liked to spec deep into Prot, I can't justify doing so, when I won't really ever get to tank any of the raids on the current content.
ReplyDeleteI'll probably be going Prot either once BC hits, or when I get close to 70.
GSH, would you have any interest in blogging for Azzor? We have a new exciting program starting up, and you'd be a great fit I think. http://wow.azzor.com/#673
