Wow I totally feel like an idiot. I spent at least a good 10 full seconds trying to figure out wtf BEAM (B.E.A.M.) stood for before realizing you literally meant beam! LOL

So I assume the new beam looks cooler?? :D

I still think the most useful to Mboxer information still is the totem of wrath stackage's absence.

Alright I'm done~

"I still think the most useful to Mboxer information still is the totem of wrath stackage's absence. "

Yo that's true, but when you come down to it MMOs are a fashion show. The whole reason you want legendary loot is so people can look at your armory or right click you and go "ooooooooooooooooooooh!"

I do the same thing with shoes, purses, and black dresses IRL!

So the beam, the ability to show off something pretty and have people say "Ooooooooooooooh!",

THIS IS BIG!

"Just an FYI - We're going to be dumping Spectral Transformation. We decided we weren't cool with the Shaman's Ghost Wolf being too close to a core Druid iconic ability. What will replace it is a deep Enhancement Talent that will cause your Earthbind totem to clear all snares each time it pulses on you and all nearby friendly targets"

sweet deal... to bad its Enh. :(

Love their way of thinking...

"We can't let shamans have a form to let them get out of snares .. hmmm ... I KNOW! Lets give their totem the ability to do it for the whole group, that's better!"

ZOMG!

I just found two beta invites in my mailbox! Suvega already has one beta key, and he found a beta invite in his mailbox too! So it looks like we'll both be 2-boxing the beta. ;) I'll have to test out this new chainheal LAZORS when they implement it. ;)

I will allow you to make it up to me by giving me some powerlevel love on your server.... maybe...

OH DEAR GOD!

I want my beta keys. It's nice to see that multiboxers are getting some love though. Make sure links to screenshots get on the WoW Forums so that people piss and moan.

OMG. Normally, I'd flame you all because I'm jealous, but all I can come up with is, "Gratz!" Enjoy the beta testing. All of you that are getting these keys, please do the community a favor and submit good feedback - you never know who's watching.

Instead of the urine stream going from character to character, we're now going to have a diarrhea stream going from character to character.

I'd like chain heal to look like a lightning bolt coming down out of the skies and splitting about 20 yards above the ground in the direction of each target needing healed, in which, upon striking the shock completely enshrouds the target momentarily before it grounds into the surface of the land. But that's just me.

So far out of all our accounts in the family we've gotten only 1 beta key. Got it last Thursday and copied my priest and shaman. My shaman is definitely doing more damage than on live servers with the new talents. Her crits are about 1k more damage than live. My usual crits on live are around 2900-3200 and my crits on beta are usually around 3900. Elemental Oath and Devastation proc frequently. The change to flametounge weapon is nice, no more wizard oils and flametounge weapon is a larger damage bonus too.
