Bosses will be immune to most if not all of these effects. Disarming a boss? And 30% miss? Not going to happen to a boss. And certainly not a stun.

Tossing in my own perspective as someone who tanks with a paladin on occasion (okay, whenever I’m not PVPing or doing dailies), the 2 second stun every 60 seconds means very little risk of threat loss as long as said paladin knows what they’re doing. On top of that, the odds are pretty good that bosses would be immune to the stun, so there’s no risk there.

From the achievements, not sure if everyone caught it:

WTB Collars. PHAT ones with gem slots and special buffs. Greens, Blues, Purples, haste perhaps….. Just a thought.

I was in the initial F&F Alpha. And I think we did a very good job NOT opening our mouths about WoW. The current Alpha test is many of the same people and still small. I’d take most of these leaks with a grain of salt. If they are data-mined, Blizz has a very warped sense of humor. Right now, people are level capped at 65 and the talent trees are locked. Death Knights are not available. They’re just testing the grind, the zones and quests. That’s pretty much what they did last time. They’ll unlock 2 levels at a time and add 500 people at a time to test stability. Before, they also wiped all armor and quests each *push* so you’d be testing the quests again. And no, not confirming or denying anything here. Just letting you know how the initial phases are set up.

You don’t “eat” them. You “use” them. It *is* a bit confusing that you can’t “feed” them to your pet – but I expect that’s a game mechanics under-the-hood kind of thing and was just easier for Bliz devs this way.

A hunter pet channeled spell would work just like Seduce on warlock pets I imagine.

regarding giving potions to pets, am I the only one who continues to be amazed that you eat the Kibler’s bits and your pet gets the buff?

What we really need is to be able to give our pets potions and let them get the benefit of buff foods if it’s of the sort they will actually eat.

And armor. Socketed armor. Just one piece.

Most of these sound BS. If they really wanna buff pets, then they should make sure that each pet class will get at least one focus dump ability and some form of Dash/Dive to travel faster if need be. Only then will there be pet diversity in raids.

Oooohhhh, new pet stuff!

I live in the midwest, and am flooded. My household did not evacuate because we are all adults, and have many pets. However, the power is due to be turned off in a couple of hours…so, will be back reading the blog when the power and internet are back up.

It is Friday the 13th…

Is pestilence next on the list?
