• Warrior: Inner Rage będzie teraz do wytrenowania na 56 poziomie. Pierwotnie miał służyć do zużywania niepotrzebnego rage'a, jednakże nie spełniał należycie tej funkcji. Dajemy Warriorom nowy skill na poziomie 83: Rallying Cry (Tymczasowo zwiększa tobie, a także kompanom w party i rajdzie w zasięgu 30 jardów, życie o 20% na 10 sekund. Po tym czasie dodatkowe życie znika. Instant, 3 minuty cooldown).
• Warrior: Colossus Smash ignoruje teraz 70% armoru zamiast 100%. Zwiększymy obrażenia zadawane przez Colossus Smash oraz inne ataki Fury i Arms w ramach rekompensaty.
  
• Paladin: Chcemy, aby Retribution i Protection Paladyni byli w stanie od czasu do czasu rozsądnie leczyć innych, ale jak wiemy, Paladyni czasem uznają Holy Power za coś, co służy wyłącznie do leczenia. Chcemy, aby te specjalizacje używały raczej Holy Power do wyprowadzania ataków, a rzadziej do leczenia.(Word of Glory ma teraz 20-sekundowy cooldown, ale Walk in the Light, czyli specjalność talentów Holy, usuwa ten cooldown.)
