Being a Hero Class does /not/ mean you get to be OP. It means you start at a higher level (55) and other such things. If Blizzard's goal was to have DK's always be a step above everyone else, that would be the beginning of the end for this game, in my opinion.
A bit off topic from what most of the comments are about, but can anyone tell me what shoulders and helm that orc (it is an orc right?) in the foreground is wearing? They look awesome and I want to get them!
It means that Corruption and Unstable Affliction essentially have the ability to crit now. The chance that they will "crit" is equal to your critical strike rating. They don't call it a crit because damage over time abilities cannot crit, but that's basically what it is.
With the way paladin spell damage will be calculated once the patch is released, it's fine for Divine Strength to be in prot, as tankadins will also want this talent. Attack power has been added to paladin spell formulas that previously only took spell damage into account. They not take both spell damage AND attack power into account when calculating their damage.
The Blessing of Kings change is a buff! Before, if you wanted to get Kings, you had to go 11 points deep in prot. Now, you only need to go 5 deep. You now have 6 more points to put elsewhere. It was a good change!
Where can I find an explanation of how tanking stats are changing and how strength is becoming important to tankadins? I seem to have missed this stuff!
