Project Lore

Patch 3.0.8 is now up on live servers, and the patch notes are long, especially for a "minor content patch." There are a multitude of changes that different people are bound to focus on including the Circle of Healing and Wild Growth nerf, the "Great Hunter Nerf of 2009," Slow Fall and Levitate castable on others, Paladin's new single target taunt and ranged pull spell, Rogue AoE, and more. Besides the changes to many class abilities, there have been some interesting game mechanic changes. One of the very first things I did once I got the patch installed and stopped staring at the pretty new launcher window was sell my items that summoned bosses to instances. This included my Blackened Urn, Mallet of Zul'Farak, and Scepter of Celebras. These three items netted me about 10g, but also freed up some much needed bank space. Other than that, one of the first things on my personal agenda is to grind up some reputation with factions that I've neglected due to their low rep gains. This includes most of the old world reps like Argent Dawn and Cenarion Circle, both of which will net me a new title once I hit exalted with them. Earlier today, Bastosa immediately hit me and a few other guildies up for an Azjol Nerub run to get the Gotta Go! Achievement and his Glory of the Hero red proto drake. So, it seems that different people see different things in the patch. What is the first thing on your agenda post 3.0.8?
