"Healing Grace: This talent now reduces the chance your spells will be dispelled by 10/20/30%.The resistance to being dispelled modifier from this talent now applies correctly to Water Breathing. "

So call me a nub, but what spells do shamans have that they care if they get dispelled, earth shield? Seems like a nerf if it removes the 15% threat reduction. Maybe it means, in addition to its current text.

Sorry website cache is acting strange, reverting the news everytime (that's why the hl got removed), i made a forum post about the changes if it happens again here http://wow.curse.com/forums/details/24966/

@arktik : you're right, i made the comparison with the 2.4 patch notes from the client (which was outdated a lot comparing from the wow website), well i'll just let people pick the right things in the highlighted things then ;)

@Phaden

What spells do Shaman care about being dispelled? Shamanistic Rage (41 point Enhance talent), Elemental Strength (Stonebreaker's Totem proc), Shamanistic Focus, Healing Way and Ancestral Healing from Resto Shaman, Eye of the Storm and Elemental Devastation from Elemental Shaman. Also Elemental Mastery and Nature's Swiftness.

This talent change is quite a big deal for any PvP Shaman, regardless of their main talent spec.

Well I'm pleased to see that Enchanters are finally getting a break..........NOT
I understood that enchanters would be able to sell enchants on Parchments, like alchemists sell pots in 2.4?
I guess not, so we are still left touting our wares like prostitutes on top of Orgramar Bank, thanks Blizz for making absolutely certain this profession is an absolute lost leader.

@Silentkill

Thanks m8, clears me up alot, i have only ever played elemental shaman, and never let my nuke buff sit on me long enough to ever have it cleaned off.

Do you know if they are keeping the threat reduction? Seems like they are taking the raiding talent, and turning it completly towards pvp if not.

bleh looks like i have to tweak my pvp resto spec for my shaman to fit healing grace in. it's a huge buff to that talent but at the same time i wish it was added to a different talent lol. the change to tremor totem is a nice change but it still doesn't change the fact that a lvl 1 char can kill my totems.

the most interesting change i have to say is the 15% crit rogues are getting to mutilate. might make it a useful spec again.

Kind of frustrating that they're nerfing half of the upper PVE raids because I'd much prefer to continue raiding them un-nerfed.
GG Blizzard at making this game too easy.

Not gonna lie but I like how they're putting in a Join As Group for AV and the "Turn Evil" thing.

I laughed a bit when I saw this under Bug Fixes

"Ogri'la Peacekeeper's weapons have been scaled to a size more appropriate for keeping the peace."
