Massive World of Warcraft Patch Coming; Includes Cataclysm Talent Trees
Talent trees will likely be refunded as they shift from 71-point system to a 41-point system. The game will now only allow progress down a single tree until the 31st point is placed in a single tree and the number of talents has been drastically reduced. The Glyphs system will also get an overhaul.
Additionally, many class mechanics are completely changing. For example, Hunters will no longer need to use ammo to fire ranged weapons. Simiarly, soul shards are going away for Warlocks. A list of changes can be found here.
Game servers should be down for around 12 hours beginning at 12:01 PST tonight and should come back online with the patch around noon PST on Tuesday.

For any shadow priests out there...the new talents are amazing...shadow fiend being part of your dps rotation due to the mind flay crit reducing its cool down by 10sec gives it an avg cool down time of 30sec
it will do an average of 10% of your over all DPS, in ICC 25man gear some HC gear...your mind blasts and SWD (on target dummy non raid buff) can crit for up to 21k each so watch for the back lash
Holy preists are just insane -
