Mine keeps freezing at 126MB downloaded then giving me alternating messages of Tracking path lost or Your computer is protected by a firewall even when I shut all security off on my damn computer....grrrr.
And before anyone says it: Yes I am getting the patch elsewhere. Just mad at having to wait in line at FilePlanet. Katrinity fucked around with this message on 06-20-2006 at 06:45 PM.
If that doesn't float yer boat, there's always wowpatch.info
It took a while to d/l the other 17 percent today though, and for a long time, I was uploading more than I was downloading, but it got through.

I had that trouble with the Blizzard Downloader last patch until I forwarded ports 3724 and 6881-6999 on my router. Never got that firewall warning again, and it's worked fine.It took a while to d/l the other 17 percent today though, and for a long time, I was uploading more than I was downloading, but it got through.
Did that along time ago with my router and just checked the setting and those ports are enabled just fine. This is a new computer though so going through all the settings. It might be the Google Toolbar that came setup with the browser since that is mentioned on the Blizzard help page (when it actually is up...)
Come to get it at the site I work at! 
We tend to get patches pretty fast over there. Sure, we have download lines, but the speeds are pretty damn fast.
And the ones that Maradon linked seem to be corrupted to me. 
Trying Fal's stuff now.
Bag colors are changed seemingly at random, lots of screens have new and fantastic backgrounds.
with the bank window open, shift+b will now open all your bank bags as well as your carried bags. Bag windows will now resize automatically if you open too many bag windows at once.
course there's the whole scourge thing.
Warlock fear is reportedly lasting to full duration almost every fucking time in PVP unless you nuke the target directly. This makes me very happy.
Oh wow, that TOTALLY makes it worthwhile. I mean, the whole point was to heal people between fights right? A great choice for a Holy Priest's ultimate ability.

No, haha, the whole point of lightwell is to have hassle-free healing for the ranged groups which won't be taking damage on a regular basis so you can focus more on the groups that ARE taking regular damage.
Lightwells are invaluable on the drakes and chromaggus and are an indespensible part of my guild's twin emps strategy.

The 'idea' is there, I've used lightwell in BWL and the rogues/warlocks love me for it. I'm just dissapointed with how it doesn't help heal the main tank. When I think if who's healing the DPS, I think of shaman, druids, or any extra priests.
Lightwell has a place in the holy tree, but I don't think it's at the very bottom.

You sound like The Quon.
We shamans have to try and keep the main tank up too you know.

Oh, I agree that shaman are important to help heal the MT. I think lightwell can be useful in some situations, what I lament is how it's not useful in almost all situations like most other 31 point talents. It's the same complaint that's been constantly coming up on the priest boards, (Leading to some pretty cruddy alternative talent ideas) that they've tried to fix this patch by making it larger.

Wait, most other 31-point talents are useful in almost every situation?
For Priests, Lightwell has it's uses now and then, and Shadowform is fucking worthless in most situations. I can only see Power Infusion getting use 100% of the time.
For Shamans, Stormstrike is pretty useless in almost ANY situation except PvP. Mana Tide is the only "can be used effectively at any time" talent, and Elemental Mastery will only get SOME use in a raid situation.
For Druids, Moonkin Form and Leader of the Pack are both situational. If you have to be healing, then both of those 31 point talents are damn near useless. Swiftmend is the only talent that has near 100% usefulness in most situations.
Actually, very few, if any, classes have 3 31-point talents that are useful in all situations.

I noticed, oh god I noticed. I can usually blast out of it with deathwish/berserker rage... but if those are on cooldown, I die horribly >.< So warlocks are not quite as squishy to berserkers anymore

Worse, much much worse. While before only SOME of the idiots were in barrens at any given time, the LFG channel has condensed the entire servers population of idiots and given them a single channel they know all can hear. It is horror beyond imagination

ACES! Another post by Mightion Defensor:
I still can't believe people are still griping that their Onyxia necklace or ZG hammer can't go on the keyring.
Yeah, you would to when you show up to ony and realize right as the leader calls to zone in that you don't have your key. Happens to at least 5 raid members every ony raid I'm on.
ZF hammer, you mean, and i could care less about that since i destroyed mine about 8 months ago

Yeah, guess what, some of us need to have sets for nature resist, fire resist, chance-to-hit, HP, shadow resist, and now frost resist as well.
So when they start giving out thirty slot bags then yeah maybe I'll lug all that shit around with me.

I carry fire and nature resist already, and am stocking up on frost and shadow. Now admittedly, I don't need all that other spare gear, just a 2hander and some trinkets. And I don't have to worry about soul shards either.
I still think Blizzard just needs to give in and put banks in front of all the major instances.

All I have to say about this patch is that Swiftmend is amazing
What's it do again? It eats up a Rejuv charge for a quick heal, right?
On my servers, Druids are still being denied groups if they don't have it. Bummer for them.
