No, we're not going to talk about that game although i'm very excited about that announcement and looking forward to play it.
But Diablo 3 wasn't the only topic that was dealt with in Paris, they also shared quite a bit of WotLK info, some of it was very cool and exciting other stuff was....erhm...wel, crap.
The next few weeks will be very busy, i'll be talking about all the stuff that has been mentioned on the WWI and the stuff that's floating around the internet regarding the wotlk alpha and give you my opinion about the matter.
First things first, right after the announcement and the openingceremoy they held the Class Panel where people could ask questions about all the classes in the next expansion, including the much anticipated Deathknight.
Druid
- Entangling roots will be useable indoor.
- Nourish will be a new healing spell, healing for more hit points for each HoT effect on the target.
- There isn't any plan to change cyclone
Druids are finally getting what npc druids had all this time: Entangling roots that will work indoor. This means we have another form of CC for melee-oriented classes (it won't have much effect on casters) in instances and solocontent. A great (and long awaited) PVE change which will have a minor effect on pvp being entangling someone inside WSG flagbuildings....but who cares about battlegrounds anyway.
Yay ! A new healing spell that looks very, very interesting and promising. I wonder if the HoT effects only means druidHoT's or other HoTs aswel (renew). If it would be all HoT effects then it will be awesome for MT healing where the priests and druids usually put their HoT's on and let the singletarget healers do the rest.
Cyclone won't be changed. Wel, cool because as a paladin i hate cyclone with every fibre of my body and therefor should be removed from the game entirely :P . No serious, cyclone works fine as it is and i wouldn't know what they should change about it. It's rather imba in arena but what isn't these days *cough*

YAY! I love info about druids.
"If it would be all HoT effects then it will be awesome for MT healing where the priests and druids usually put their HoT's on and let the singletarget healers do the rest."
The nourish spell looks awesome but it'll probably be restricted to the druid's own hots or maybe druid hots in general. Say you have two resto druids in the raid, the combined number of their hots would be 6.
Add priests and you have several more. And that would be imba.
It looks like they're working on our hots which is awesome. Druid healing can be a challenge when competing with CoHing priests and chainhealing shamans, and that's just the way we like it! So hopefully nourish will add to the uniqueness of druid's hots, making us more valuable than we are atm.
Depends on the numbers really, we don't have any numbers on the basehealing of nourish just yet. Could be druid-only hots, could be all hots when base healing is low.
We'll see. But it's an interesting thing i haven't thought about it tbh.
