New changes on the PTR March 5th 2008: Lifetap and Flametongue back to normal in 2.4!

So this is officially awesome, they have reverted the changes to lifetap! Also flametongue weapon doesn’t have the MS effect anymore (thank god we really didn’t need that garbage, give us some of the 50 million other changes instead. You know the ones we ASK FOR.)

A new build is being deployed on PTRs and TTR, and what a build it’s a 84 mb patch. As usual, we will update this list several times with changes coming from the game files and PTRs.

Note: Blizzard added all the zone music for the Sunwell (73 MB, or 84% of the filesize).

new description: Dispels magic in a 15 yard radius, removing 1 harmful spell from each friendly target and 1 beneficial spell from each enemy target. Affects a maximum of 10 friendly targets and 10 enemy targets. This dispel is potent enough to remove Magic effects that are normally undispellable.
