Modus Operandi!

WOOT WOOT! I have a little Goblin Mage around Level 14. Love it

[InflatablePie]

Goblins are cool, but the starting area sucks noodles.

OK - so time to retire the DK.

Recuperate base effect now heals 3% per tick, up from 2%.
Stealth base cooldown has been reduced to 4 seconds, down from 10, and the movement penalty from being in Stealth has been removed.
Tricks of the Trade now has a 100-yard range, up from 20.
Talent Specializations
Combat
Improved Recuperate now adds 0.5%/1% to the health restoration effect of Recuperate, down from 1%/2%.
Subtlety
Nightstalker now reduces the cooldown of Stealth by 2/4 seconds, and instead of negating the movement penalty from Stealth, it adds a 5/10% movement speed bonus (stacking with other effects) while Stealthed.

Seriously? That is INSANE.

So basically if you have nightstalker, stealth has ZERO cooldown and you actually move 10% faster while in stealthed now?

LULZ.

I can see patch 4.1.1

- All rogue changes from 4.1.0 have been retracted

[Flameaxe]

I'll be here when theres a useful change. I'm not seeing it.

Stealth change is pretty underwhelming. You can run a bit faster to get out of stealth. Wee?

Recoup is useless outside of pvp, imo. If you're pvping without improved recoup, you're dumb. Recoup with improved now: 4%, recoup with improved after the patch 4%. Nothing has changed there. No point making a big deal out of nothing.

Never really had a problem with the TOTT range as it is, so improving it won't really appear as anything substantial.

The only thing I see here is the fact that Blizzard is completely destroying the entire stealth feature and turning it into a pile of lulz. They really don't seem to give a fuck about logic anymore. I SNEAK, THEREFORE I SPEED. Wut.

More to say edit: I honestly see the stealth changes having no real impact on 85 play, more of a leveling buff than anything. Realistically, my feral druid has the speed of this new buff stealthed, so that takes away anything special from that.

Larger AoE range by a factor of 5
Move faster while stelathed, and no CD on stealth if specced for it.
Self-heal up to 90% from 60% (with 5 CP's)

Granted these changes benefit PvP more than PvE, but still awesome.

stealth edit. If it benefits pvp, its a negligible benefit at best. PS: Tricks isn't an AoE?

Durp, was thinking FoK.. Too many damn acronyms

If FoK was buffed to 100 yards, I would be shitting bricks.

GET BACK ON TANS

[tanstalas]

I'm at work

[dramonic]

like that's ever stopped you ;P

[tanstalas]

New guy working here.. May be a spy...

[InflatablePie]

I thought tans of all people would have commented on this:

Raise Ally has been redesigned to be a battle resurrection, analogous to Rebirth. It is instant cast, but costs 50 Runic Power to use, and has a 10-minute cooldown. It shares the same global battle resurrection cap with Rebirth and Soulstone.

Neat.

[tanstalas]

Meh. I noticed it, but was more taken by the death strike no longer causes threat. Trying to figure out why Blizz is trying to force us from the only viable tank spec.

I'd be happier if you could glyph it or talent it so that it didn't cost so much (50 RP is a decent amount)

[InflatablePie]

Apparently they're changing the RA glyph to reduce the time it takes to cast Death Gate. Because that's useful. <_<

[Kairyuu]

@tans: You do realize that death strike itself WILL still cause threat, yes? All you're losing is the small amount of aoe threat you now generate through the healing component.

Somehow my roommate asking that the hacker not vend my main's gear got them to actually listen. Unfortunately, the hurricane deck that was sitting in my bag waiting for the faire to come back wasn't so lucky. Nor was the 1k gold I had. Thus far Blizzard has brought back the stuff I lost off of my kitty druid (100g and some leather) and my warlock (about 90s worth of equipment). Why they didn't restore the 85 before the 48 and the 27 I have no idea, but they'll get to it eventually. Hopefully before the faire leaves again after next week.

I've been hacked before and they usually are pretty good at getting your stuff back. Sometimes I think they do the lowbies first since they didn't have much stuff to begin with.

[Knight of Cydonia]

What the hell kind of weak-arse passwords/shady add-ons are you people installing?

Mine actually wasn't my password, but logging onto my friends machine who downloaded a shady add-on that I had no idea about.

This was like back in 2006 and I cried because they stripped my priest. She was my raider at the time.

[Umbrage]

I use the same password for everything. Never been hacked or otherwise attacked through teh internetz.

I hope you bitchslapped him/her. And, er, got your stuff back, obviously.

[Flameaxe]

I got hacked once. Funny thing is...before I got hacked, I didn't have any game time purchased. After hacked, they purchased a month for me! Free month and a shitload of free herbs! Good deal.

[crywolf20084]

xD sounds like my friend she got hacked and they leveled her from 80 to 82 then they gave up.

Same here. My password is AWSUM.
