3.1 Patch notes

Another thing:

Glyph of Shield of Righteousness: Reduces the mana cost of Shield of Righteousness by 80%.

Wasn't this like 8% before?

This isn't an expensive ability at all, so this is still garbage I'd think, but with this glyph how much mana would ShoR be, keeping in mind it costs 30% more from talent changes?
_________________

Well if the ShoR glyph really is 80% then it would be useful for prot pvp.

last stand + lay hands would make me all sorts of fuzzy happy, especially since i have exactly 1 talent point and nowhere useful to put it at ^^

I'd like

Shield of Vengeance 11pt
Raises your block value by 500% and allows you to block magic for 12 sec, 3 min cooldown.

Suppose shield slamming people for 30k damage would be seen as broken in pvp

Pretty sure the glyph is just listed in the wrong spot.

Also, my understanding is that warriors are in pretty sad shape prior to 3.1. I wouldn't be suprised at all to see them gain some ground from the patch. Likewise, druids seem to be getting brought down (though possibly in part due to a bug). Deathknights are likely to see a few ner-I mean WE'RE FINE AND BALANCED AND NOTHING TO SEE HERE.

On a serious note, taking out salvation will bring deathknight damage-while-tanking back down to earth. I'm not sure where the overall damage mitigation stands, but I would not be suprised to see blade barrier get hit.

With blade barrier, anticipation and the 3% miss in frost DKs have a 8% avoidance increase over pally/warr as well as the extra parry rating from Str. This means they take at least 16% less hits (assuming 50% avoidance warr/pall) which is a pretty huge difference. It was sort of balanced when they had less EH, but now they have more health, and more armour.
