Arthas encounter requirements & 10 man
Exact details on what players can expect when facing Arthas (and with how many) is still being ironed out. Players WILL be able to face him (as of this point in time) with both 25 and 10 player encounters, however, there may yet be some additional thought put into just how 10 player groups will be able to access him. It may not come until after a 25 player group has killed him first to unlock the 10 encounter. This will be decided and made known at some point in time, but in the meantime, there is all of Northrend that still will need to be encountered and his forces to cut through. (src)

Sunwell Radiance like debuffs won’t come back in WotLK
We’ve learned a lot about itemization since then and certainly have no plans of going back to Sunwell Radiance. But don’t expect to get 100% avoidance any time soon. (src)

New PvP rewards - Set bonuses will be redesigned
Some of the set bonuses are slated for re-design, when that will actually happen in the development cycle has not yet been determined. (src)

MT & Off-Tanks
We don’t want to have to constrain encounters (or even parts of the same encounter) to always requiring the same number of tanks, because that just really limits how creative we can be in offering you a fun fight. We are specifically trying to improve tank dps and / or healing to make you more functional when not doing the tanking part. We are also looking at the tanking trees a lot and trying to remove must-have talents (e.g. Defiance), and trying to combine some of the mitigation talents. Ideally, a tanking tree would have some mitigation and threat, but also a lot of tools and just, well, some options.

When I talk about talent trees (and the state of the game in general) I am almost always talking about what I see at my desk. The beta builds are done with data that are several days old, and it’s hard to keep track of exactly what has gone out the door or not. Tanking trees in particular are going to be late coming. I wouldn’t eagerly download the beta each update in hopes of seeing brand new tanking trees there. There is a build going out right now (Aug 21) and I don’t think there are any changes to Prot, Prot or Feral. (src)
