This is an old list, but it is still valid, and it's the only known one in existence (that I know of) that is the latest edition.__________________________________________World of Warcraft TCG Raid Rules Updated September 29, 2008R1. General R100. Raid fundamentalsR100.1 Raid decks are played by a Boss player against a number of raiding players. Each raiding player needs a deck and hero. If a raiding player has an Alliance hero, then no raiding player can have a Horde hero, and vice versa. No other restrictions apply. For example, Traitor heroes can raid with non-Traitors, and Demon heroes can raid with non-Demons.R100.2 A Boss player wins if no other players remain in the game. The raiding players win if the final Boss is destroyed by fatal damage.R100.3 A Boss player s action phase is normal in all ways except that he or she can t place a resource. In addition, a Boss player can t look at his or her face-down resources at any time.R100.4 A Boss player s end phase follows his or her action phase, and is normal in all ways except that a Boss player s maximum hand size is ten cards. Each raiding player has a maximum hand size of seven cards as usual. Each player must discard down to his or her maximum hand size during the wrap-up step of his or her turn as usual.R101. Boss fundamentalsR101.1 A Boss is any hero in a Boss player s party. Bosses have powers on both sides. Such powers function only if they re on the side currently visible.R101.1a Usually, only one side of a Boss has a type line and damage icon. Such a Boss enters play with that side face up, and has that type line and damage icon even while on its other side.R101.1b A modifier that flips a Boss turns it over regardless of which side is visible (but see R101.3a).R101.2 If a Boss is destroyed, any allies or ongoing abilities controlled by the Boss player stay in play unless otherwise specified in these rules.R101.3 Special Boss RulesR101.3a Bosses can be destroyed only by fatal damage. Opposing modifiers can t turn a Boss over or remove its powers (unless that Boss is the source of the modifier that does so).R101.3b Opposing modifiers can t add cards to or remove cards from a Boss player s resource row.R101.3c A Boss player has a separate graveyard for each deck. Opposing modifiers can t remove cards from any of these decks or graveyards. A Boss player doesn t lose the game if any of these decks runs out of cards. If that happens, that deck s graveyard is shuffled into that deck by the game (even if cards can t leave that graveyard) and the Boss player continues drawing from it. This doesn t use the chain. Warcraft News, Tips&Tricks, tutorials, patches, mods, informations, documentation Warcraft News, Tips&Tricks, tutorials, patches, mods, informations, documentation World of Warcraft's third expansion will be released on 7 December.Blizzard, creator of the hugely successful online game, confirmed the date as rumours of a December release swirled around the internet. The expansion will re-make some of the original territories of the Warcraft world and introduce two new races.It will also overhaul some of the basic mechanics of the game and give players a chance to make their characters even more powerful.World of Warcraft (WoW) is an online game in which players create characters, such as warriors, warlocks and shaman, who they then take on adventures to gather loot and items to make the avatars more powerful. WoW is among the most successful of the so-called massively multi-player online games. The expansion - called Cataclysm - will be available worldwide on 7 December and players will be able to buy it in shops or download it from the Blizzard store. The retail price for the expansion will be 34.99 euros ( 30). A collector's edition will also be available only in shops for 69.99 euros ( 60).As the name of the add-on implies, Cataclysm will make big changes to Azeroth - the world in which the game is set. These changes are caused by the return of a dragon called Deathwing.The expansion will also raise the level cap to 85 from 80 and introduce the goblin and worgen playable races to WoW. To get at the content in Cataclysm, players must already have an up to date copy of World of Warcraft. Earlier expansions for WoW were the Burning Crusade in January 2007 and The Wrath of the Lich King in November 2008. Warcraft News, Tips&Tricks, tutorials, patches, mods, informations, documentation Look lively the efforts to retake the areas of Gnomeregan and Echo Isles have begun. While it's been some weeks since we shared the details surrounding these calls to arms, the battle is finally underway! If you are of the illustrious Alliance and wish to take up the charge of retaking Gnomeregan as called by Gelbin Mekkatorque, you'll want to report to him for duty in the district of Tinkertown in Ironforge. Members of the noble and steadfast Horde are tasked to report to Sen'jin village in southern Durotar. No matter if you're a weathered champion of your faction, or are still learning the ways of battle, you'll be able to help in these monumental efforts to change the very landscape of Azeroth. Dismissed! Warcraft News, Tips&Tricks, tutorials, patches, mods, informations, documentationFor ages the red dragonflight and its noble matriarch, Alexstrasza the Life-Binder, have dedicated themselves to preserving all life on Azeroth. Recently, the very heart of this virtuous dragonflight has come under threat. An eerie silence has settled over the Ruby Sanctum, the red dragonflight's sacred lair within the Chamber of the Aspects. This troubling development has led to fears that the sanctum, home to Azeroth's largest clutch of red dragon eggs, has been breached by an unknown, sinister force. If these claims are true and immediate action is not taken, the benevolent red dragonflight might be crippled forever. Real ID: A New Way to Connect With Your Friends on Battle.net One of our goals for the new Battle.net is to create the framework for an online gaming experience that is even more accessible, more engaging, and more entertaining than the previous Battle.net. The newly released Real ID feature, available to World of Warcraft players as part of patch 3.3.5, is an integral part of this effort, providing you with advanced ways for forming and maintaining meaningful relationships with your friends on the service. Real ID is a completely voluntary and optional level of identity that keeps players connected across all of Battle.net. When you and a friend mutually agree to become Real ID friends, you'll have access to a number of additional features that will enrich your social gaming experience in new and exciting ways. General The Ruby Sanctum, an all-new 10- and 25-player raid dungeon featuring normal and Heroic difficulties, has been added! Players will find the dungeon entrance below Wyrmrest Temple in Dragonblight. Please note due to the way this patch is being applied in all regions, this dungeon will not immediately be available in North America. Stay tuned to our General Discussion forum for an official announcement on the opening of the Ruby Sanctum. The functionality of the Vote Kick feature in the Dungeon Finder will now behave differently according to a player's history with the system. Players using the Dungeon Finder who rarely vote to kick players from a group, or rarely abandon groups before a dungeon is complete, will find that the Vote Kick option will have no cooldown. For players who frequently abandon groups or vote to kick other players, the Vote Kick option will be kept on a cooldown. This functionality will adjust itself as a player's behavior while using the Dungeon Finder changes. Players can now right-click on any chat type (Whisper, Trade, General, Party, Raid, etc.) and choose to move conversation types into separate windows. This will move that chat type to a separate tab in the Chat frame which can be undocked and moved anywhere on the screen. Using the Move to Whisper Window option on a Whisper will place the conversation with that player in a separate tab. Any time a conversation with another player is put into its own tab, the tab will glow when a new message is received. Hovering over the Chat Frame and using the mouse wheel will allow players to scroll through chat text. Players can select Classic Mode under Interface Options to keep the Chat Frame functionality closer to what it was prior to patch 3.3.5. The Simple Chat User Interface option has been removed. A new icon has been added to the top left of the Chat Frame which will open up the Friends list. In addition to its current functionality, the Friends List will now allow players to add Battle.net accounts (Real ID). Players will have to confirm that they are friends in order for a Real ID to be added. Once Real ID friends, players can communicate cross-game, cross-faction and cross-realm. A new Pending tab has been added where players can accept or decline a Real ID friend request, or select the Report Spam or Block Communications buttons. Players can now select from three statuses which will be visible to their friends: Available, Away and Busy. A Broadcast window has been added to the top of the frame. Players can use this to broadcast a message to all of their Real ID friends online. This message will also be displayed under the broadcaster's Real ID information in each friend's list. Warcraft News, Tips&Tricks, tutorials, patches, mods, informations, documentation Warcraft News, Tips&Tricks, tutorials, patches, mods, informations, documentationWhile the Cataclysm updates to many of the professions are still deep in development, we wanted to share some of the work that's been going on, as well as a high-level look at any lessons learned or changes to their underlying philosophies during the design process. Please be aware that not all professions have the same extent of information available right now, but each is receiving the same love and attention as the next.Take heed of these teasers as you look forward to your new rank of Illustrious Grand Master!Please enjoy!General Many of the green (and possibly some blue) items made during the process of leveling these professions will contain random stats. In most examples, two stats on these items will be set, and two will be random. The idea with these items is to mix up the skill leveling items so you're not just, for example, creating 10 pairs of boots that are all exactly the same. Superior-quality items that require more materials than other recipes in the same skill range provide multiple skill-ups. For example, if a recipe takes three times the reagents, it will give you three skill-ups. We didn't feel like we were getting much flexibility from specializations, so they have been removed for all three of these professions. The intent was to help people diversify their profession to feel different from that of other players, but through other professions we've found systems that work better to this end, such as simply making recipes available that you can earn over time. To follow up the previous change, all items that required a specialization are now useable by anyone. Tailoring the high-end Cataclysm items will center around a single cloth type that can be crafted through five different recipes -- each with their own material components and a long cooldown. All three professions will create their starter sets of PVP gear, which will be upgraded with new recipes every season. In general, these are meant to keep pace as an entry-level PvP set below whatever the current Hero Point set is.Alchemy New elixirs will be about 75% as strong as flasks. So you can get more total stat points with two elixirs, but flasks will still be the best at giving you a single offensive or defensive stat. New unique material used by nearly all high-level recipes will be created by alchemists on a one-day cooldown. New Mysterious Potion created with common materials restores health and mana in a massively random range, as well as sometimes granting the benefit of another potion. The health and mana range is from 1-20,000 and is able to crit. The minimum amount restored, however, is scaled upwards by the Alchemy skill, making it a great choice for alchemists to keep for themselves. All potions and elixirs now use the same basic vial type. Flasks still use a fancy vial. New Alchemist Stone.EnchantingIn general, material component costs for most recipes are more moderate in how much they require, while the highest-end recipes will still require large quantities. The goal of this change is to make the leveling recipes more consistent and not create unintended roadblocks in getting to the higher skill levels.An enchanter vanity pet is being added.New Cataclysm weapon enchantment preview: Avalanche -- Chance to deal Nature damage on melee hit/spell hit. Elemental Slayer -- As expected, this enchantment helps players deal devastating damage to elemental creatures. Hurricane -- A stacking haste proc. Heartsong -- Mana regeneration through increased Spirit when chain-casting spells. Many more maximum-level enchantments are still in progress.Engineering Engineering is still being designed, but expect new unpredictable gadgets to use on yourself or enemies. Toys, explosives, and even a new vanity pet or two. Oh, and powerful mechanical bows and crossbows in addition to guns. In general, we want Engineering to remain a tradeskill mainly focused on creating fun or useful gadgets for the engineer, but we are exploring options for items that can be sold to other players for profit.Inscription With the large number of class changes coming with Cataclysm, many existing glyphs will see new functionality. Minor glyphs are woefully uneven from one class to the next right now, so they're a focus for us to clean them up and try to ensure that everyone has minor glyphs they're excited about. New Darkmoon Cards will be added, with hopes they'll all be as awesome as the Greatness card. We'll be adding more major glyphs as well, but in the hopes of making them as balanced as possible, we'll likely wait until after the expansion ships to add any for the new abilities in Cataclysm. New and more desirable off-hand and relic recipes will be added.Jewelcrafting Some gem colors have changed! Hit is now blue. Mastery and Dodge are yellow. Intellect is now red. These simple changes have created a much more diverse matrix of gem cuts. New Jewelcrafting dailies will be introduced. Many cuts are being added to support the new Mastery stat. Some new Cataclysm jewelry recipes have completely random properties, and can sometimes create superior and epic versions. Jewelcrafters will have some fun new (and potentially lucrative) vanity items, including fist weapons, rhinestone sunglasses, monocles, and stardust (sprinkle on players for entertainment).Herbalism, Skinning, and Mining All Cataclysm herbs have the chance of containing Volatile Life. There won't be a new Lotus equivalent in Cataclysm. Alchemists will use the more reliably-found Volatile Life to create the new high level flasks.Herb Example: Heartblossom -- Named for its deep red color, this delicate flower grows close to the ground, and always in pairs. If one blossom is taken, the other flower begins to wilt immediately and dies soon after. It is considered very unlucky to disturb a Heartblossom without blessing it first. Savage Leather, the basic Cataclysm leather, can be gathered from most creatures found in the expansion areas and can be converted to Heavy Savage Leather at a 6:1 rate. Pristine Hide, the rare Cataclysm hide, can be found when skinning creatures in the expansion areas, or be converted from Heavy Savage Leather. Obsidian is the new common mineral found when mining in Cataclysm, and can contain gems, Volatile Fire, and Volatile Shadow. Elementium is the new uncommon mineral found when mining in Cataclysm, and can contain gems, Volatile Fire, Volatile Water, or Volatile Earth. Pyrite is the new rare mineral found when mining in Cataclysm, and can contain gems and Volatile Fire. Previous Elementium Ore and Bar used for classic quests will be renamed to Elementium Ingot and Hardened Elementium Bar. We like the gathering perks as they are; not a game-changing bonus but something themed and fun. But as all tradeskills are in the design stages these are still being discussed to a degree.Cooking Cooking is still in the early stages, but we plan on continuing with daily quests, feasts, and some fun new recipes. We liked the cooking dailies that had players picking up items that spawned in the world near the quest giver, so most if not all new cooking dailies will work similarly.First Aid Bandages will have a short cast time and put a heal over time effect on the target for 8 seconds. This effect is broken by damage. Three new bandages! That's right: THREE!Bandage preview: Dense Embersilk Bandage Heals for 34,800 over 8 seconds. Requires 3 Embersilk to create.Fishing Lots of new fish and other fun items to catch! Fish are still used to make premium food. New fishing dailies. Warcraft News, Tips&Tricks, tutorials, patches, mods, informations, documentationIn World of Warcraft Cataclysm, will be lots of changes and additions to class talents and abilities across the board. In this preview, you'll get an early look at some of the changes in store for the shaman class, including a rundown of some of the new spells, abilities, and talents, and an overview of how the new Mastery system will work with the different talent specs.New Shaman SpellsPrimal Strike (available at level 3): Primal Strike is a new weapon-based attack that every shaman will learn very early in the game. Our goal with this ability is to make leveling as Enhancement rather than as Elemental more viable, since many key Enhancement talents become available at fairly high levels.Healing Wave (level 4): While the shaman already has an ability called Healing Wave, we're adding another spell to the class's direct-healing arsenal and giving it a familiar name. The current Healing Wave will be renamed Greater Healing Wave, and the intent is for the 'new Healing Wave to be the shaman's go-to heal. Lesser Healing Wave and Greater Healing Wave will be used on a more situational basis.Unleash Weapon (level 81): Unleashes the power of your weapon enchants for additional effects (see below). A dual-wielding Enhancement shaman will activate the effects of both of their weapon enchants. Instant cast. 30-yard range. 15-second cooldown. Undispellable.Here are a few examples of effects we're considering for this ability: Windfury Weapon Hurls a spectral version of your weapon at a target, dealing 50% weapon damage and increasing the shaman's Haste for the next five swings. Flametongue Weapon Deals instant Fire damage and buffs the shaman's next Fire attack by 20%. Earthliving Weapon Heals the target slightly and buffs the shaman's next healing spell by 20%.Healing Rain (level 83): An area-effect heal-over-time (HoT) spell that calls down rain in a selected area, healing all players within it. There is no limit to the number of players who can potentially be affected; however, there are diminishing returns when healing a large number of targets, much like the diminishing returns associated with AoE damage spells. This should give Restoration shaman another healing tool that improves their group-healing and heal-over-time capabilities. 2-second cast time. 30-yard range. 10-second duration. 10-second cooldown.Spiritwalker's Grace (level 85): When this self-targeted buff is active, your spells are no longer interrupted by movement and possibly even by your own attacks. This will give shaman of all three specs another way to heal or do damage when it s necessary to move in both PvE and PvP. Instant cast. 10-second duration. 2-minute cooldown.Changes to Abilities and MechanicsIn addition to adding new spells, we're planning to make changes to some of the other abilities and mechanics you're familiar with. This list and the summary of talent changes below it are by no means comprehensive, but they should give you a good sense of what we intend for each spec. Restoration shaman and other healing classes will need to pay attention to mana more than they've had to during Wrath of the Lich King. Spirit will be the Restoration shaman's primary mana-regeneration stat. We're making changes to which classes and specs are able to dispel magic, diseases, curses, and poison, largely for PvP purposes. Shaman will have Cleanse Spirit as a baseline ability, but it will only remove curses. Restoration shaman will have a talent that will improve Cleanse Spirit so that it also removes magic. Shaman will no longer be able to remove poison. Cleansing Totem will be removed from the game, as we want dispels to be a decision for players, not something done mindlessly. To that end, all dispels will cost slightly more mana, and you will waste the spell if you cast it when there is nothing to remove. (Currently, the dispel is only cast when there is something to remove, which encourages spamming 'just in case. ) We will balance PvE dispelling with this new model in mind. Totem of Wrath now will replace Flametongue Totem for all shaman, and dropping this totem will buff the group's spell power by 4%. Elemental shaman will have a talent that lets all Fire totems provide +10% spell power, allowing them to drop Searing, Magma, or Fire Elemental Totems without losing their spell-damage buff. The 4% and 10% buffs will be exclusive with each other and with the warlock's Demonic Pact, so you can't benefit from all of them at once. We're also considering letting Elemental drop Searing Totem at range. We want to free up Enhancement global cooldowns to make the spec more dynamic to play. We're considering, for example, increasing the cooldown of Lava Lash so shaman have time to work other interesting abilities into their rotation.New Talents and Talent Changes Elemental Reach will be simplified so shaman have a more consistent spell range. We plan to add Earthquake as a deep Elemental talent for targeted and persistent AoE. Spirit Link will likely be worked back into deep Restoration in some form. The idea is that you will be able to link targets together so they share damage. When we had previously tried to implement Spirit Link, it was hard to balance and a little confusing. However, we really liked the concept -- and so did players -- so we are trying to bring it back. Elemental will have a deep talent that allows Spirit (which will appear on the gear they share with Restoration shaman) to boost their Hit rating. Ancestral Knowledge will boost mana pool size, not Intellect. Enhancing Totems will be replaced with Focused Strikes, which will improve the damage of the new spell Primal Strike and Stormstrike. With the Mastery system, we're also considering removing a number of talents that grant passive bonuses, such as Mental Quickness, Improved Windfury Totem, Mental Dexterity, Call of Thunder, Tidal Mastery, Purification, Nature's Blessing, and others, to allow players more freedom to choose more interesting talents.Mastery Passive Talent Tree BonusesElementalElemental Overload: Your direct-damage spells have a chance to proc a less powerful 'bonus version of the spell. This will work much like the current Lightning Overload talent, but would also apply to Lava Burst.EnhancementNature Damage: This will provide a passive bonus to the Nature damage dealt by the Enhancement shaman.RestorationDeep Healing: Your direct heals will do more healing when the target's health is lower. This will scale to damage (e.g. someone at 29% health would receive more healing than someone at 30%) rather than have arbitrary break points.We hope you enjoyed this preview, and we're looking forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback on these additions and changes. Please keep in mind that this information represents a work in progress and is subject to change as development on Cataclysm continues. Warcraft News, Tips&Tricks, tutorials, patches, mods, informations, documentationAs many of you know from panels at last year s BlizzCon and posts here on the forums since then, Cataclysm will bring about major changes to familiar character stats such as Intellect, Armor Penetration, Defense, and others, ultimately designed to make the effects of stats more easily understandable and make gear choices more interesting. As these changes will have a significant impact on how stats work and relate to one another, today we wanted to offer you a closer look at exactly what s in store and explain some of the rationale before Cataclysm arrives.The most obvious question these changes raise is Why are stats being changed, and why now? As the game has matured, we've run into increasingly complex issues with the current stat system. Many stats are inherently confusing, and the way they interrelate can feel convoluted. Attack Power, for example, currently translates to damage, but so does Armor Penetration. Defense provides five different statistical benefits of varying utility. Mana regeneration involves understanding multiple stats and rules and often ends up being irrelevant anyway. In addition, the difference between a good stat for a class and a bad stat can be extreme. Some casters want Haste but not Crit; hunters want Armor Penetration but not Haste. There are other overarching issues, as well, such as Intellect not being very exciting for casters despite it being a core stat -- and these are just a few examples.Our ultimate goal is make gear a more interesting (and less confusing) choice by making each stat valuable to more players. While the reasoning behind some of the following changes may be clear, we understand that you may have questions about some of the less obvious alterations, and we'll do our best to answer any questions you may have here on the forums.What You ll See on GearStamina - Because of the way we will be assigning Strength, Agility, and Intellect, non-plate wearers will end up with more Stamina than before. Health pools will be much closer between plate-wearers and other classes.Spirit - Come Cataclysm, this stat should only be found on healing gear. Non-healing casters will have other systems in place to regenerate mana, and we are designing special solutions for Elemental shaman and Balance druids who often share gear with healers (more on this below). Raid buffs that currently boost Spirit (such as Blessing of Kings) will only boost the primary stats of Stamina, Strength, Agility, and Intellect. We are also likely changing the five-second rule and other quirks of the current regen system.Intellect - Intellect will now grant Spell Power (more on this below). Intellect will also provide less mana than it currently does.Haste - Haste will become more attractive for melee classes by allowing them to recover resources such as energy and runes more quickly. Our intention is for Haste to let you do stuff more often.Block Rating - Block is being redesigned to scale better. Blocked attacks will simply hit for 30% less damage. Block rating will improve your chance to block, though overall block chances will be lower than they are today.Parry - Parry no longer provides 100% avoidance and no longer speeds up attacks. Instead, when you parry an attack, it and the next attack will each hit for 50% damage (assuming they hit at all). In other words, Dodge is a chance to avoid 100% of the damage from one attack, Parry is a chance to avoid 50% of the damage from two attacks, and Block is a chance to avoid 30% of the damage from one attack.Mastery - This is a new stat that will allow players to become better at whatever makes their chosen talent tree cool or unique. It's directly tied to talents, so what you gain from improving this stat is entirely dependent upon your class and the talent specialization you choose. We ll talk more about specific Mastery benefits in the future.Armor - The way Armor mitigates damage is not changing, but the Armor stat has been rebalanced to mirror changes to the armor curve in Cataclysm. As a result, bonus Armor will go down slightly overall. We are also changing the mitigation difference among armor types so that plate doesn t offer so much more protection than mail, leather, and cloth.Resilience - This will only affect damage done by players and critical damage done by players. It will not impact crit chance, mana drains, or other such effects.Strength, Agility, Hit Rating, Expertise, and Critical Strike Rating - These will all still appear on gear as well. Aside from situations mentioned elsewhere in this list, in general these will function similarly to how they do now, though the details -- such as how much Hit Rating you might need to effectively combat high-level creatures (more on this below) -- are likely to change.Being Removed from ItemsAttack Power - This stat will no longer be present on most items as a flat value, though it will still show up on some process. Strength and Agility, which will be present on items, will grant the appropriate amount of Attack Power (generally 2 Attack Power per point of Strength or Agility) depending upon which stat a particular class favors. Agility may provide less Crit than it currently does.Spell Power - Spell Power is another stat that you'll no longer see present on most items. Instead, as mentioned above, Intellect will grant Spell Power. One exception is that caster weapons will still have Spell Power. This allows us to make weapons proportionately more powerful for casters in the same way they are for melee classes.Armor Penetration - This stat will no longer be present on items. Armor Penetration will still exist in talents and abilities.Shield Block Value - This stat will no longer be present on items, since the amount blocked is always proportional to the amount of damage done. Talents and other effects might still modify the damage-reduction percentage from 30%, however.Going Away CompletelyMP5 - This stat will be removed from the game completely. Holy paladins and Restoration shaman will be redesigned to benefit from Spirit.Defense - Defense is being removed from the game entirely. Tanking classes should expect to become uncrittable versus creatures just by shifting into Defensive Stance, Frost Presence, Bear Form, or by using Righteous Fury.Spell Ranks - Spell ranks will cease to exist. All spells will have one rank and will scale appropriately with level. The levels at which you can learn certain spells are being changed in order to fill in some of the gaps, and we will be introducing some new spells to learn along the way as well.Weapon Skill - This stat will be removed from the game completely. Classes will start with all the weapon skills they need to know and will not need to improve them.What Else You Should KnowCombat ratings - All ratings will be much harder to cap out at maximum gear levels. Ratings will be steeper in Cataclysm, and creatures in later tiers of content will be harder to hit or crit, similar to how level-83 mobs are harder to hit or crit than level-80 mobs.Reforging - While these changes will go a long way to making a wider variety of stats more attractive, we understand that sometimes you simply don t want more Hit Rating on your gear or you d rather have more Haste than more Crit. In Cataclysm, we are going to give players a way to replace stats on gear as part of the existing profession system. As a general rule of thumb, you ll be able to convert one stat to 50% of another stat. While some conversions (like converting Stamina to Strength) won t be permitted, the goal is to let you customize your gear more.Gems - We are changing the gem colors of a few stats as a result of these adjustments. For example, Hit is likely to be blue instead of yellow. We'll have more details on this in the future.Changes to Existing GearAs with previous expansions, we plan to roll out these changes and modify all existing gear shortly before Cataclysm launches, though it s still too early to say exactly when. For the most part, the gear you have will still be good for you, though there will be exceptions, such as warriors using leather and mail armor.If you are a tank (druids excepted), expect to see: * No more Defense on gear. Existing Defense becomes Dodge, Parry, or Block Rating. * No more Block Value on gear. Existing Block Value becomes Block Rating. * You ll have as much Stamina as you re used to, though you may notice your tanking plate has a bit less Stamina than a comparable piece of DPS plate, since we tend to take the gem budget out of your most attractive stat. * Bonus Armor on gear will go down slightly.If you are a melee DPS class, druid tank, or hunter, expect to see: * A lot more Stamina. Bear-form Stamina scaling will be lowered as a result. * Strength if you wear plate. Agility if you wear mail or leather. * Existing Attack Power becomes Agility and Stamina.Armor Penetration becomes Haste or Crit. * No Intellect on melee gear. Hunters won t need Intellect since they will no longer use mana. Shaman and Retribution paladins will get mana and spell damage in other ways.If you are a DPS caster, expect to see: * A lot more Stamina. * All of your Spell Power converted to Intellect and Stamina. * No Spirit. You won t miss Spirit, though, because you won t need it for DPS or mana regen.If you are a healer, expect to see: * A lot more Stamina. * All of your Spell Power converted to Intellect and Stamina. * Spirit instead of MP5. You ll probably be happy with Spirit, though, because mana regen is going to matter more than it does currently. Healing paladins and shaman will benefit more from Spirit than they do currently.If you are a Balance druid or Elemental shaman: * You will still share gear with Restoration druids and shaman. * Your gear will have Spirit on it. It won t have Hit on it. * You will have a talent that converts Spirit to Hit. We will adjust talents accordingly so that you want about as much Spirit as, say, a warlock wants Hit. * Hit on rings and other such gear will still benefit you. * Raid buffs will no longer boost Spirit, so you shouldn t find yourself unexpectedly over the Hit cap because of buffs.Many lower-level items with nonsensical combinations of stats, such as Agility and Spirit, will be changed. We're also updating quest rewards, trade skills, and loot drops to support better itemization for class builds that weren't widely available or used prior to The Burning Crusade (such as Balance druids).We're aware this is a lot of information to take in, but this is still only a piece of the larger picture, and many of these changes rely on integration with other systems we haven't yet discussed in detail. In the weeks and months ahead, we'll continue to tell you more about these changes, along with all of the new and exciting features we have planned for Cataclysm.

WoW TCG Comprehensive Raiding Rules Someone asked for them, so here they are the comprehensive raid rules list. This is an old list, but it is still valid, and it s the only known one in existence that I know of that is the latest edition. World of Warcraft trade TCG Raid Rules Updated September 29, 2008 R1. nbsp nbsp nbsp General R100. nbsp nbsp nbsp Raid fundamentals R100.1 nbsp nbsp nbsp Raid decks are played by a Boss player against a number of raiding players. Each raiding player needs a deck and hero. If a raiding player has an Alliance hero, then no raiding player can have a Horde hero, and vice versa. No other restrictions apply. For example, Traitor heroes can raid with non Traitors, and Demon heroes can raid with non Demons. R100.2 nbsp nbsp nbsp A Boss player wins if no other players remain in the game. The raiding players win if the final Boss is destroyed by fatal damage. R100.3 nbsp nbsp nbsp A Boss player rsquo s action phase is normal in all ways except that he or she can rsquo t place a resource. In addition, a Boss player can rsquo t look at his or her face down resources at any time. R100.4 nbsp nbsp nbsp A Boss player rsquo s end phase follows his or her action phase, and is normal in all ways except that a Boss player rsquo s maximum hand size is ten cards. Each raiding player has a maximum hand size of seven cards as usual. Each player must discard down to his or her maximum hand size during the wrap up step of his or her turn as usual. R101. nbsp nbsp nbsp Boss fundamentals R101.1 nbsp nbsp nbsp A Boss is any hero in a Boss player rsquo s party. Bosses have powers on both sides. Such powers function only if they rsquo re on the side currently visible. R101.1a nbsp nbsp nbsp Usually, only one side of a Boss has a type line and damage icon. Such a Boss enters play with that side face up, and has that type line and damage icon even while on its other side. R101.1b nbsp nbsp nbsp A modifier that flips a Boss turns it over regardless of which side is visible but see R101.3a . R101.2 nbsp nbsp nbsp If a Boss is destroyed, any allies or ongoing abilities controlled by the Boss player stay in play unless otherwise specified in these rules. R101.3 nbsp nbsp nbsp Special Boss Rules R101.3a nbsp nbsp nbsp Bosses can be destroyed only by fatal damage. Opposing modifiers can rsquo t turn a Boss over or remove its powers unless that Boss is the source of the modifier that does so . R101.3b nbsp nbsp nbsp Opposing modifiers can rsquo t add cards to or remove cards from a Boss player rsquo s resource row. R101.3c nbsp nbsp nbsp A Boss player has a separate graveyard for each deck. Opposing modifiers can rsquo t remove cards from any of these decks or graveyards. A Boss player doesn rsquo t lose the game if any of these decks runs out of cards. If that happens, that deck rsquo s graveyard is shuffled into that deck by the game even if cards can rsquo t leave that graveyard and the Boss player continues drawing from it. This doesn rsquo t use the chain.
