Pally tank got hit by the patch quite bad. My HoTR used to crit for 10k, now 2k maybe.. Well pally tanks were OP-ed anyway. Its nice that they did this. Very happy with Holy though. The extra heals were good.
The removal of arpn as a stat almost killed my cat. When I logged in, all the arpn gems became crit, my cat had 70% crit. Dropped almost 2k or so dps. I guess all classes that take advantage of arpn got hit but cats really got it the worse. My rogue survives without arpn, no probs.
Not sure if its just me but take a look at the holy tree mastery. The mechanic is the same as that legendary mace from Ulduar. I'm not saying that pally heals are god damn good right now, but that mastery is certainly something worth looking into. Lots of potential imo
Dunno about u guys, i did some heroic dungeon as a prot pally, my dps did quite good... esp fully charged shield bash and recount show me top 2, my bro usually top 1 and me usually the second last dps. I was amazed, i also did gs check them, same like me, 5.4gs. Dam i hate the new holy power system. It is good no doubt, but i have to keep remind myself i got a fully charged holy power to used which will screw up my rotation. Feel like relearning to play my toon.
Also, all my enchantments got reset and have to re-enchants again, when i see my bro using locks, man he was pulling dps like crazy. Sad to be pally =(
Need to reroll dps warrior after cata out

For my side the Boomkins and DKs seems to have gotten the best out of this patch. As for tank damage wise, I tank with my druid in cat gear and spec. In heroic instances my bear tops dps on trash and even bosses. Berserk, mangle/bash spam. Easily 8 - 9.5k dps.
autosurf ss15 is in front of the market now, i hang out there all the time as well hahaha
