    * "Demonic Tactics" now grants increased critical strike chance to you and your demon pet, instead of increased damage.

They need to review the entire warlock class. They're nuts.

On the good side: I'm loving the Warrior buff. It's not too much either, just enough to let me use some skills. Thunder Clap in defensive mode is something that should of been there since the game's launch.

Charge/Intercept breaking snares is useless. I mean Intercept has at most a 20s cooldown..that's great once every 20 seconds I can break a icebolt? And how fast can a mage spam it?

And having Charge break snares is useless since it cant be used in combat.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

Because you guys could bearform outtank warriors while going cat to DPS AND you could heal yourself.

yeah man, druids were the class that needed to be nurfed also. and lets make priests the next good class!

Edit:

WTF, fucking priests up TOO?! is this all because of the arena crap? theyre going to let a small portion of the game fuck up all these classes?

Priests
    * The base healing percent from "Vampiric Embrace" has been reduced to 15% from 20%. In addition, this ability can no longer get critical heals.
    * "Silent Resolve" no longer reduces threat generated by Shadow spells.
    * Prayer of Mending now has a 20 second cooldown.
    * If a targeted enemy has a magic effect granting immunity to spell or physical damage, “Mass Dispel” will now always pick that effect as its target.

Nah. But 5% more dmg isn't really that big a deal. Hell, the 20% increased damage on my VW is nearly nothing.

Perhaps 5% was really something at the higher levels, but it didn't seem that big a deal to me.

Yeah, I wouldn't say it isn't a big deal until you've used the talent (both before and after).

5% spell dmg isn't a lot at low levels when you have about 50spelldmg. I have 700spelldmg, taking 5% and putting it to crit (which I don't need) sucks.
It is good to be good, but it is better to be lucky.

Hopefully Tseric explained well enough why it was done (in his mind).
