Patch 4.3 Mega Thread - Keep it all here

[Multibocks]

Still makes me wish I had a rogue in a raiding guild. F'ing sweet, model reskin who cares.

[Vipeax]

Isn't that image/caption from the WOW Facebook page?

Doesn't change that it does not have to be an actual flying mount. It might be, but the animation is hopefully just a WIP in that case.

Just leaving that here to avoid sad faces for those who are hoping on it being a flying mount while it does not have to be .

[Toned]

I've got my rogue ready to go for 4.3 :P

[Multibocks]

Hah you bastard. I'm jealous, but I don't have the time to join a raiding guild.


Edit: 4.3 on test possibly tomorrow! I will update first post with patch notes.

Nerf to howling blast again. Blood DK changes could prove interesting.

[ebony]

WIth the changes to wow starter acconts u can make them into PTR acconts and make Permades (level 85) if u allways wonnted to try out that class at level 85 but nerver know it it work :P or maybe see if u can 20 box

[zenga]

The removal of the cd for chain lightning is gonna be fun for ele shaman boxers in bg's (and even arena i guess). Not to mention that flametongue weapon is redesigned into a flat 5% magic dmg done buff rather than spellpower. Seeing how crap ele scales that should be a buff. And earthquake is getting 75% buff as well.

So in pvp, boxing ele's might see actually quite a buff.

[Oatboat]

Sure enough... i love watching chain lightning forks on huge groups.

I wasn't sure if you were saying that the screenshot was fake.

In any event, your guess was correct. From MMO-C today:

Legendary Dagger Preview - Fangs of the Father
Blizzard released a preview of the legendary daggers, with finally extra info on the wings.

• These powers include a stacking increase to Agility which builds until dark wings unfurl from the rogue’s back, removing the combo point cost and increasing damage of finishing moves for a short time.
• In addition, the wings which can be spread on command (with no combat benefit) to slow a rapid descent, allowing the rogue to slowly fall to the ground
