I got 99 problems but a Lich ain't one.
3.3 Patch Notes:
http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/patchnote...notes.html
Anyways, post some things you are excited about in 3.3.
Personally I'm excited for this one:
Default Equipment: Starting weapons are now more uniform. Rogues now start with a pair of daggers equipped. All other classes except shamans start with a 2-handed weapon equipped and the required skill already known. Shamans start with a 1-handed weapon and a shield, as they benefit more from the shield than they would from a 2-handed weapon.
About damn time.

I thought this was a thread about Jay Camel =( Nice title.
Does honesty earn respect or inspire revenge? Is it smarter to attack the strong or annihilate the weak?

Frost Mages have it sooooooo hard.
I mean, they have to hit Frostbolt.
And sometimes, when Brain Freeze procs, they have to fit Fireball.
And then other times, if they're feeling REALLY crazy, they have to hit Blizzard on AoE packs.
Frost Mages have it so hard :'(

Or, they can't actually pve at all in their current state. Considering their dps is several thousand below arcane and fire specs. ^_~

They're really not that bad. You're thinking at Wrath release. They're actually not TOTALLY terrible now.
If you're basing this off stuff you've seen again, please remember that most Frost Mages, like most Demo Warlocks, are terrible.

Fighting to the bitter end is an advantage when your opponent does not wish to perish.

Frost is VERY bad right now, I don't know what your talking about. There is skill to it, like all specs, seperating the good from the good from the bad players however it doesn't make it a acceptable spec. If you show up as frost to my raid, I will kick you on the spot.
I can pull 6k dps as a arcane mage, and when I switch to frost I pull 3k. That's a 3,000 dps loss. That's because the biggest amount of damage from frost comes from freezing a enemy in place and critting automatically because they are frozen. This cannot happen to boss mobs, meaning you lose that perk.
According to Elitiest Jerks (and Blizzard), they are way behind every other mage spec, primarly because it is a pvp tree. Elitiest jerks even has charts as to why they are way behind every other spec.

Those poor mindless fools. They don't realize that behind the scenes they're planning Skynet.

And I've seen Frost mages pull over 6k. Not the BEST DPS by any means (mostly goes to my guild leader Retadin who does 7k-8k), but not terrible.
They're behind, but I think most people exaggerate by how much, and player skill and measures can make a huge difference.

We've all got to remember one important thing: Whatever class we play and our preferred spec is, that's the most underpowered possible combination in the game at any point in time. Anyone who says otherwise is a complete noob and should go study.

Don't forget every spec has to have decent dps even if it's primarily a healing spec.

This is true. Holy smite priest ftw. "WHERE'S MAH VIABILITY BLIZZ". Dual specs are announced so that tanks can finally stop paying lots of gold to respec just for pvp! "FUCK THAT, WHERE'S MY PROT PVP VIABILITY BLIZZ".
