there must have been a nerf, i played on my 85 paladin w/ 85 blue handout weapon and I was getting no where near any of the numbers posted in the beginning. Shaman seemed slightly better and DK seemed kinda OP. might have to spend the rest of wotlk leveling my other dk's . If only dk's could bubble!
Needing 3 holy power really slows down paladin burst, having to build up and then decide on dps vs heal for using it sucks. We will see how beta progresses, but I may end up a sad panda with regards to pally's.
