    WoW have announced previews of the Cataclysm talent trees for 4 classes, Priest, Rogue, Druid, Shaman.

    Thoughts? I'm just going through the priesty one now :-)

    Edit

    I've played around a bit now, my first thoughts are :-

    a) My God 76 points to spend feels like a lot.
    b) I *have* to take lolwell. Hope you DPS can cope with healing yourself.
    c) I can be full Holy and get as far in Discipline as I need to have Power Word: Barrier, which seems mental.
    d) They're loving the Holy DPS.. I get the option of a free 10% hit for Holy damage spells, and I can enter a 'smite based' state which increases holy and shadow damage by 15%. Gogo holy dps machine.

      I've played with the Shammy one a little bit and came up with:

      There's Focused Insight which is interesting but I didn't take it, increases the next healing spells effectiveness after a shock... Hmmm.

        Given that, and the dps stuff in Priest holy, i'm wondering if they're expecting healers fight input to be less cast bar whack-a-mole and more getting involved with the fight too, or if this is simply so when you're overgeared for an instance you can not be so bored.
        Wash: This is going to get pretty interesting.
        Mal: Define interesting...
        Wash: Oh god, oh god, we're all going to die?

          I didn't even look at them because I wasn't sure I'd understand. I should look at Enh Shaman really, but obviously even though I love her I know my priest best.

          Still if I switch main to a Warlock...
