Gnome Eureka! is now a 10% resource-cost reduction; Cultivation gained level requirements; Touch of the Grave no longer triggers from non-damaging spells or breaks crowd control with its damage.

Beta warning: values and availability can change again before launch. We keep build/date labels visible instead of presenting beta data as final.

New beta feature: Cooldown Manager

The current beta exposes the Cooldown Manager for Druid, Mage, Priest, Warrior and Warlock. It can be configured through Edit Mode or opened with /cdm. Additional classes are expected later.
