That admission of "we never intended" is very sad. Very sad indeed. Of all the things your trip in time would let you fix is mages ability to spam AE conveniently from a toolbar, where MAYBE, they'll break a rogue's stealth. Not, go back in time, and raise the levels cap so more than 1% of the entire WoW popultation could go to Naxx before TBC? No going back in time to changed rogue's stealth to not break unless they take a certain amount of damage? I guess AE for mages was too much FUN for your "intentions". Huh? Cause it certainly didn't seem to bother you that Palidin's Rank 1 Consecration can also be put on the toolbar, and spammed, and for less mana, last 8 seconds, and is the BEST way to break a rogues stealth. Not to mention Flamestrike. What happend? Did your rogue toon just get beat by a mage in Arena yesterday or something? Being the WoW FANBOY I am, I'll suggest to you, go to the mage forum and apologize. Well, from my perspective, it’s official, the blz dev’s do truly have something against mages.
