What are you looking forward to in 3.0.8?
Last night we asked our Twitter followers what they were looking forward to when the realms came back online with patch 3.0.8. (Not on sure what I'm talking about? Here's Twitter in plain English.) Here's what the Twitterati had to say to us (in 140 characters or less):
thehatfield @WoWInsider not that excited (my main is a hunter) but probably most looking forward to one shot mining nodes I guess.
synae @WoWInsider slow fall castable on others ;-)
gimly @WoWInsider I am looking forward to owning a tiger mount on my dranei shaman and I will certainly appreciate faster corpse walks
astromoose @WoWInsider Creating a DK on another realm so I can FINALLY hang out in WoW with my mate who has moved to Canada.
cuppy @WoWInsider basically just being able to trade Ink of the Sea for Snowfall Ink. That will be rad.
Artoo_UK @WoWInsider the new pet collector achievement :)
superkathoid @WoWInsider Swipe in cat form!
JusticeJuice @WoWInsider Druids with polearms and Holy plate goggles for my pally.
grinface @WoWInsider The craftable moonkin boots and the ink-trading for inscribers.

Razor1138 @WoWInsider Blood DK buffs
BeckaNoel @WoWInsider Casting levitate on everybody! Woot! But...not looking forward to coh having a 6 second cd -.-
Kreeoni @WoWInsider LAGFIX!
KellyAarons @WoWInsider Druids with polearms!! Nah, I kid. I honestly have no big wants with this patch. Gotta admit lots of great stuff coming though.

Swipe in cat form :D
Tianashen Jan 20th 2009 3:35PM
But I'm also with strife... dual form soon plz!
JPN Jan 20th 2009 3:37PM
Rep changes, so I can go back and farm grey mobs for rep when I have some time to solo for achievements!!!
romiress Jan 20th 2009 3:47PM
Seconded so bad.
Well, that and Tauren mounts.
Razortooth Jan 20th 2009 3:39PM
Free shaman respec!
Moo Jan 20th 2009 3:39PM
one-shot mining and faster Hodir rep are my two main things from a convenience standpoint.
From a game play standpoint, I'm very excited for the range increase for Glyph of Holy Light.

I'm still mixed on one-shot mining. On the one hand, it means no ninja swipe of your node (unless you're fighting on top of it), but on the other hand it means no more slow creeping smile when you discover that the gold vein is a 4-banger!
GIlyu Jan 20th 2009 3:39PM
2min cooldown Evocation on my Arcane mage!
Todd Jan 20th 2009 3:40PM
Heh, if people are looking to have Slow Fall cast on them... fend for yourselves.
Eversor Jan 20th 2009 3:40PM
Lagfix. Leveling an arcane mage sucks when you get lag while kiting. Really pisses me off.
Jargan Jan 20th 2009 3:41PM
Hunter nerf.
DK nerf next plz.
muhahaha Jan 20th 2009 4:19PM

I've got to admit, I'm not really looking forward to anything in this patch. I'm not dreading it, and I'm not looking forward to it.
Kungaloosh I guess?
Scott Jan 20th 2009 3:42PM
As a Hunter I'm looking forward to re-speccing to SV. BM is great but can get boring after a while. I'll have to hurry though since we start NAXX25 at 7 eastern. Assuming realms are back up.....

The buff to Ele shaman.
My DPS was already pretty g0od. Now its going to be OP.
Netherscourge Jan 20th 2009 3:45PM
I think this patch is lousy.
They've made Wintergrasp undefendable, thus ruining any reason to PvP there except to get your once a week 5-minutes vault runs in.
They've nerfed Hunters into near-uselessness. Volley is down 30%, which means Mages are gonna be replacing us in raids for Ranged-AOE on trash-mob packs.
1-tap Mining Ore Nodes. Sounds good, but if the respawn rates are not increased, it'll take forever to find a node.
Bah - wake me up when Uldar is released. I've got no reason to log in now since I got "Champ of the Frozen Wastes" completed.

Cheaper tailoring and enchanting. Finally, I might be able to afford to make frostweave bags for myself.
godcoffee Jan 20th 2009 3:45PM
The massive improvements in clam interaction. No longer will I have to dismount or break stealth to open my clams. I believe it will revolutionize the clam industry in WoW and bring a new golden age to clam lovers everywhere.
Essequibo Jan 20th 2009 3:46PM
Reduced need for infinite dust to do some enchants is the greatest change for me. Other things are reducing the latency in naxx that kept our Raid Leader dissconecting and returning to check who died every 2 minutes in a boss fight and fixing Grobbulus so he will not be faster than the tank :)

1. TIE: Faster Mining.
1. TIE: DKs on any realm if you can make one.
3. Druid feral attack power tooltip on all weapons.
4. Slow Fall! (With that little minor glyph I'll be sending people over cliffs safely all over the place.) Watch for falling invaders from the Blacksmith!
5. DK Unholy nerfs (and I have an unholy DK)
6. Cooking Achievement fix
