Rather than try and address multiple threads, I'm just going to plop our current thoughts in this one post. Please excuse the brevity.

1) We think Fury, Arms, Feral cat and Retribution dps is too low and we will be buffing them.

2) We think mage dps is too high, especially Fire, and will be nerfing it.

3) We think Shadow priest dps is too high, but that's largely a result of Shadow Word: Death spam, which is tough on healers. We'll be fixing that.

4) We think Destro warlock dps is too high, but that's largely a result of Searing Pain spam, which is tough on tanks. We'll be fixing that.

5) As we suspected, PvP dps is just too high given that the health pools of Cataclysm haven't kicked in yet. While competitive PvP is over for the moment, we still want the environment to feel better so we will be buffing resilience. This change might be reverted at level 85.

There will probably be more changes after another night of raiding and BGs. Many of the bug fixes we have made today will affect dps as well. Stay tuned.

I (fail)pugged icc25 with my druid last night, just to get an idea of how things played out, and here are my thoughts (we wiped and called on marrowgar so no save) and had a go at weekly on pally healer.

Pugs are rubbish!!

Overall AoE dps seems to be low

Lock DPS is storming. Having demon and doomguard/infernal at same time is fab.

There is no where enough mana, and healers and spell dps most going OOM very quickly on trash (except lie locks with lifetap)- I think AoE spells are costly.

Healing can be expensive, the changes to pally in particular are "interesting"

Palladins have sort of reverted back a little similar to pre wrath with judgements and seals (sort of)

No-one has a clue on rotations!
