Countless heroes and villains have played a part in the ever-changing tableau of Azeroth’s history. In the upcoming World of Warcraft content patch, two will step forward to confront the Lich King Arthas -- one a former friend, the other a former servant -- in the Icecrown Citadel: The Frozen Halls dungeon.

Character and Creature Nameplates
Quote from: Zarhym (Source)
We have made some changes to the way creature and character nameplates display in the game and would like to get feedback from those of you on the public test realms. There are three significant changes you should notice:

• The range at which you can see the nameplates is now much longer.
• You can no longer see the nameplates through objects which block line of sight.
• Instead of the nameplates trying to sort themselves, they just overlap. We think this makes them more useful for very large groups (example: Onyxia whelps).

Please let us know how this change affects your play experience, whether through PvE or PvP.

For clarification, please also refer to my follow-up post about nameplate changes:

We have a couple of points of clarification based on some of the feedback and concerns we’ve been seeing in this thread:

• As long as you are able to peer into the doorway of a room, you will see nameplates of players or creatures in that room.
• Similar to the first point, pillars and bridges in Arenas will not hide friendly or enemy nameplates.
• Nameplates for totems can be toggled under “PRODUCTION” settings in “Interface Options” on the test realms. We will look into adding this functionality for pets as well.
• The way nameplates are sorted when large numbers of creatures and players are grouped together is not fully functional and we will continue to address the way these are sorted and displayed throughout the testing process. In the mean time, you can choose to toggle this feature back to its original functionality, also under "PRODUCTION" settings.

Pets scaling in Patch 3.3
We're still working on it. One stat that will almost certainly not get scaled to the pet is armor pen. It is technically (for obscure reasons) challenging to convert the armor pen rating from the hunter to the pet. Given armor pen's not so rosy future (as a stat on gear anyway), this one probably wo...

Tier 10 Set Bonuses - Updated

Shaman

• 2 Pieces (Heal): Your Riptide spell grants 20% spell haste for your next spellcast.
• 4 Pieces (Heal): Your Chain Heal critical strikes cause the target to heal for 25% of the healed amount.

mmmm con 2 bonus set Stimando un Haste di 500 ... ogni Riptide da 100haste in piu ....

Gemmando tutto haste si potrebbe arrivare benissimo a 7-800 (gia ora con item 245)
Dopo un riptide si avrebbero 140-160 haste in piu percui si potrebbe avere un Chain Heal da 1.93sec non buffato

2.5sec / (960haste / 3278 ) +1 = 2.5s / 1.2928 = 1.93s :wub:

io direi che é abb sgravo ... calcolando che Riptide ora come ora da +25% di heal sul primo target ....

direi rotazione easy RT - CH Sgravo - CH Normal


Considerando l'altra rotazione possibile ... single target RT LHW LHW .... invece se i talenti rimarranno uguali (per esempio Tidal Waves)... si potrebbe avere un Healing wave (percui cure da 9-10k) in 1.35s

2.5sec / (960haste / 3278 ) +1 = 2.5s / 1.2928 = 1.93s
Con Talent Improved
1.93s - 30% = 1.35s

il tutto senza buff raid ...

se poi si usa la Lesser Healing Wave che ha 1.5s di cast per 5-6k di cura

2.5s / 1.2928 = 1.16s

Azz sto dando i numeri da solo....
