Patch 2.3.2 ==> more whagelove wtf!
Patch 2.3.2 looks nice for a lot of classes. Buffs left and right for druids/rogues/shamans, a significant buff for hunters it seems and megamajorbuffs for mages!
The biggest lockhaters, or 'whages' as some people call them, are buffed again in patch 2.3.2. Fresh from the patchnotes:
- Cold Snap (Frost) cooldown reduced
- Conjure Mana Gem (Rank 6 - Emerald) now restores 1800 to 3000 mana and has three charges
- Ice Block (Frost) is now available on the trainer to all mages at level 30.
- Icy Veins (NEW Frost Talent) decreases casting time of all spells by 20% and increases the chance your chilling effects will freeze the target by 25%. Lasts 20 sec. 3 min cooldown. It is now in the Cold Snap position in the talent tree.
So those whages (popular term amongst locks. It stands for ‘whining mages’ but saves you the trouble of typing 2 words) somehow got in Blizz’s pants and got more. I sure must ask them how they do that, but I’m actually fine with it. The more they buff mages, the more I will enjoy killing them. AND I WILL.
I can understand the iceblock-thing, even the new talent (though totally not needed it seems, those icelances weren't overpowered or anything), but what pisses me off most is the managem.
"Yeah, but we need it, we can't kill people, we don't have enough mana to take 3 people down"
Well buddy, i have news for you: I DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH LIFE TO TAKE DOWN 3 PEOPLE EITHER. What mana is for mages, is hitpoints for warlocks. So, I demand a healthstone with 3 charges (warlock only) as well. Small thing and all fair imo.
But to make sure not all warlocks will reroll, blizz decided to give a daily warlock-only quest as well in 2.3.2.
the 'any level' was added after several locks did not manage to get the quest done within 24 hours on the testrealm.

Why we originally wanted the mana gem buffed, is because the new TBC rank gave us 130 mana more..... next to our mana pools that increased bit more.
And mate... if there is anything warlocks are notorius for, its their ability to fight forever.
Anyway the mana gem, remember there is still a 2 min cooldown between uses. Also i really dont think anyone wanted it to have 3 charges, we just wanted a spell that was worth lvl 70.
However why you arent whining about Icy Veins is beyond me, if anything is imba, THAT is it.
It's called sarcasm, Art. Not whining about the obvious, but taking something rather small :D
Zhero, just get some more resilience, +healing and health. And then you'll just laugh at mages on your druid.
Tnx Muda, that's exactly what I plan on doing. I already heard a story once where Szwok (pretty hard hitting mage) emptied 2 manabars on a druid who only healed himself and ran off laughing when Szwok was oom the second time.
Haha, nice daily quest...
Heard the story about Woks? He never duels resto druids :p Think I have dueled vs him once and lost, but I have way better gear now, but now he refuses any duels I challenge him to.
Meh.... i fail at sarcasm i guess....
Man muda, remember that duel in thunder bluff? you resisted my arcane explosion on 500 hp? To this day i still remember it, silly resto druids :P
