http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread.htm ... 5498&sid=1The NDA is lifted now it's gone closed beta so I figured I'd post a couple of things.
I've been exclusively a demo-lock so far in TBC, mostly because I'm a demo-lock on live and there's really not much PvP or isntances going on yet.
Felguard - its a great solo grinding pet. It holds aggro way better than a VW and it's DPS is very nice (I think my max cleave so far is over 700). It is however fairly fragile still, it can handle same level mobs OK but you best hope you can fear any elite mobs :p I don't see it as a PvP pet (its straight DPS after it's initial intercept), and in instances I usually end up using a succubus for seduce (I've only done the first two instances so far though). No one has raided yet in TBC but I really can't see it as a raid pet
Black Book - Has changed to also work with the felguard. I never used the black book on live server, I have it perma-equipped in TBC for solo grinding. Felguard + black book is a sight to see, I'm sure there's more efficient trinkets to use but it saves you if you get a 3-pull.
DS - there is no DS for the felguard (MD is 10% dmg as per succubus). However they have changed VW and felhunter DS. Felhunter is now +3% mana a tick and VW +2% hp a tick, i.e. they reversed the percentages. At least that's what the talent shows, I haven't actually tested it but speculation is everyone's going to have so many more hp in TBC that +3% hp would be over-powered hence the change.
Gear - I have a mix of BWL and AQ40 stuff, so far I've only replaced my wand and cloak (both with green drops). If you have MC quality gear though expect to replace most of it in the first couple of days in TBC :p +stamina is a huge stat now, it's common for green items to have +30 or more (I got a green head item with +60 stam, no other stats).
Spells - there are new ranks of a lot of our spells (I'm only 65 so not had many). Also pets get new version of their spells, my imp's blood pact now gives 1000hp, it's fire shield is 25dmg). I haven't done much with the all-new spells though, incinerate I don't like but then I'm demo spec'd.
Drain Life is finally what it should be, I get 250hp a tick back now (think it does around 190dmg), that's with fel armour and demonic aegis. New bandages I was getting over 500hp a tick heals to

WL Pet scaling isn't in yet.

with a Felguard - at 60 its base stats are (With Full Demonology Spec of course):
Attack Power: 238 (Damage: 159-212)
Armor: 3110
Strength: 129
Agility: 85
Stamina: 256
Intellect: 134
Spirit: 96
(Resists are 0)
My total gear bonuses are:
+ 648 Armor
+ 249 Stamina
+ 152 Intellect
+ 40 Spirit
+ 492 Spell Damage
+ 92 Shadow Damage
+ 10 Arcane Resist
+ 10 Shadow Resist
+ 10 Frost Resist
+ 40 Fire Resist
With all of these bonuses my pet gains:
Attack Power: +355 (Total Damage: 238-291)
Armor: +226
Strength: Nothing
Agility: Nothing
Stamina: +86
Intellect: +45
Spirit: Nothing
Resists: Arcane, Shadow, Frost are +4, Fire is +16
Now to figure it out...
+Spell Power definently adds to +Attack Power - directly.
I tested with a Talisman of Ephemeral Power (+175) and my pet gained 99 attack power, and only attack power. The actual percentage turned out to be (99/175 gives 56.57%)
56.57% of my total spell damage, including the shadow damage (Which is +584) gives gives the result 330, which isn't quite what was gained. Really not sure on this one.
Resists seems pretty straightforward, your pet gains 40% of your resistances (My 40 FR gave the Felguard 16 FR)
REALLY not sure what the bonuses are from basic stats. It seemed to gain different % of different stats gained, like ~30% of Intellect, or ~35% of armor or ~35% of stamina, etc etc
