This news will be updated several times.

They will pretty much kill lock dps if this is true because there are not enough debuff slots for more then 2 aff. locks in a raid.

The mmo-champion version of the notes has a further addition that's mentioned in the Benefactor forums of EJs;
- 4/4 set bonus of Elemental Shaman reduces pushback only by 30% instead of the 70% currently.
- Lightning Bolt coefficient reduces (possible back to how they planned it rather then the 8% coefficient bonus they gave us back after a huge huge shitstorm on the forums).

Also, another poster on the Benefactor forums of EJs claims we should stockpile TALASITE while it's still cheap.
Can't be arsed to mine his previous posts and figure out if he's connected or not.

I pray and hope (and would sacrifice a goat if it would help) if this particular one is true.

-Moonkin Form no longer gains 150% attack power or mana returned from melee hits, but now refunds 2% of your total mana every time you critically hit with a spell.
