    I'm sure many have noticed it's extremely difficult to get mobs to stay in front of the tank lately.  A fix is incoming with no confirmed ETA as of yet.

    Changes for DK's

        * Army of the Dead: The cooldown on this ability has been reduced from 20 minutes to 10 minutes. Army Ghoul damage dropped by 50%. Cannot be used in Arenas.
        * Raise Ally: The cooldown on this ability has been reduced from 15 minutes to 10 minutes. Cannot be used in Arenas.
        * Rune of the Stoneskin Gargoyle: There is now a 1-handed version of this rune in addition to the current 2-handed rune.
        * Rune Strike: Threat generated by this ability increased by approximately 17%.


    Unholy

    Night of the Dead: Now reduces the damage your pet takes from area-of-effect damage by 45/90%, but no longer applies to area-of-effect damage caused by other players. In addition, this talent now reduces the cooldown of Army of the Dead by 2/4 minutes, down from 5/10 minutes.

    Scourge Strike: Redesigned. The base ability now deals 50% weapon damage plus an additional amount as physical damage. However, for each disease the death knight has on the target, the target will take additional shadow damage equal to 25% of the physical damage done.
                   

    Unholy Blight: This talent now deals only 10% of Death Coil damage as a damage-over-time effect on the target.


    Site Changes:  I have narrowed down the focus of the forums to concentrate chat about things.

    If you're having issues with latency with Windows 7, Vista, and I believe XP SP3 there is a fix.  I live 25 miles from the WoW Dallas Datacenter and my latency on my Mac was always below 10ms, after switching to Windows 7 RC (Building something more powerful than my mac pro) I noticed my latency was 150-200ms.  This was irritating because I was unable to figure out the cause of it.  The real cause is how Microsoft has redone their settings on the network stack in Windows.  It's great for corporate networks, but it just plain sucks for gaming.

    Leatrix over at WoWUi has posted a page with a utility to fix it.

    Many members of my guild have applied this fix and have reported halving their latency or better.  I'm back to less than 10ms again as well.
