So far this is considered "part 1" and doesn't cover Druids, Hunters and Priests. But be sure to take a look. It even has several new screenshots of the spells in action! __________________

While looking around the WoW Europe boards to see what people think of the updates I realised my realm really is the worst off.

You know, looking at the new Rogue talents - they really suck. At least the combat tree. Well, most of the Assassin tree too. But I mean, look at our 41 pt talent for Combat - "we won't miss on a backstab, etc". "So amazing! Now I can kill other Rogues!" -_- What the hell is that doing on a PvE tree? It's so worthless in PvE. Blade Twisting is also a PvP talent. It's really a shame.

Yes, we have a reactive taunt, but we still don't have the dps to keep the mobs on us. We're still healbots through and through in any raid situation. That and Shaman get pets...lucky bastards. __________________ Rationalizing the irrational since 2005.

Why isn't healing enough for you? Why cant i demand a tanking role for Mages or a Healing role for Rogues?

Because paladins are not supposed to be pure buffbots and healers. Just like shaman are supposed to be leather wearing divine spellcasters. Paladins are holy warriors, they are supposed to be able to kick ass on the battlefield.

Ouch.

Notice that it's on a cooldown, just like most of our other worthwhile abilities. I'm not asking for a rogue/warrior amount of damage, but I want to be able to kil a caster before he kites me to death.

For some reason Water and Earth elementals have been shown as the commonly summoned ones.

You could never summon a fire elemental as a mage in any WarCraft game.

Yeah, but Scarlet Evokers in SM Arm have Fire Elemental Pets, as well as some Defias mages in Deadmines.

Because shamans elements are more "natural"... A bit more shamanlike, when Fire and Water, or really ice, is what Mages train in. But, as Kerrah said, Evokers and Defias Mages has fire elementals. Which must mean mages are able to summon Fire Elementals __________________ CRY MICH EIN RIVER!

Most Dalaran Mages use Earth Elementals and the Gnome in Badlands studies Earth Elemental Bracers.
