Stream lost at this point, will update later.
The battleground reporting system is being tuned to let player police themselves easier.
A spectator mode is planned.
There are no new racial abilities to to be added.
PvP rewards won’t be changed.

WWI Developer Panel - Class Changes in Wrath
We already know about many new spells and talents coming in WotLK, but none of that info was official until now. The stuff in gray is my comments.
Death Knight
Developers don’t want talent trees to be pigeonholed into specific roles. Each tree will be functional both roles.
Runes have a 10 second separate cooldown
Army of the Undead [...]
Diablo 3 Announced
Hell yeah. As long as there’s no daily quests, I’m in.
Blizzard.com/diablo3 for the official things, mmo-champion for the rest.
2.4.3 Update - Bear Mount, Gems for Arena Points
Looks like yesterday’s 2.4.3 patch notes were missing a few interesting additions, worthy of an update.

Tier 7 & Death Knight in Action
I guess they weren’t lying when they said they were working on WotLK sets, so I’ll forget for the moment how awful most of S4 sets look like.
There’s a video available here so you can check the sets live, and a few images on Wikidot so go check it out. Despite warlocks wearing what looks [...]
WotLK Warlock Talents and Spells
There’s no point posting opinions since most of the spells and numbers will be quite different, probably as soon as beta starts.
You can check the preview of warlock talent trees here (note the Soul Link in tier 3 :O ).
Some stuff looks pretty interesting, especially the much needed defense vs. melee (Metamorphosis), although 360% armor [...]
New Medallion
##NOLIGHTBOX##
Is it my imagination or is Blizzard just trying to come up with more reasons to grind honor?
This baby will cost us 40,000 honor points for a whooping amount of 25 resilience. Another must-have for serious PvPers, but again, that’s going to be a boring grind again just like Battlemaster.
I’m guessing the trinket will be [...]
