Loque'Nahak still wins when it comes to choose a Spirit Beast... but the new Gondria is nice too. So far people found 3 spawn points.

I have to agree, that's a pretty boring looking pet. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if they had put it in on a more frequent spawn timer with less spawn points as a kind of easy mode way of getting a Spirit Beast for those who want the attack but don't care so much about looks.
Loque'Nahaq is obviously cooler.

Oh yeah, and while there's only 3 parts so far, I'm gonna milk it for as many page views as I can :) I'll probably end up with at least 9 posts.

On rupture-less cycles:
Well I guess that's a bit outdated now by the time you guys posted the link. Looks like it was written 3 days ago. But a couple days ago, it seems Blizz made a change to Master Poisoner and heavily implies that the Envenom Glyph is not gonna happen anymore.
So, Rupture is back.
What this does is prevent other spec's, Combat, HaT in particular, from taking this type of talent. Envenom looks to be intended for Mutilate only now.

Right. And that the Envenom glyph is also not mentioned in the latest update to the patch notes also supports that. As much as I would have liked to see it happen, it would have made Honor Among Thieves builds using Envenom spam instead of Eviscerate absolutely ludicrous. Neither of the other two trees (or probably any other class/spec) would have been able to come close to it.

Are there any good warlock blogs you would recommend following?

I read the fury warrior tips, and I have to disagree with the first one which is "Don't level fury". I believe it was actually de-mystified a while ago that even without hit gear fury gives better DPS for leveling.
I also have to say that, as a level 73 warrior as of now leveling fury for 60-73 has been very easy. My hit is at 10% (7% gear 3% talents) and I haven't even tried to gear for it nor am I decked out in blues, it's pretty much all quest greens except for two blue weapons.
So really there is no reason you can't start building your fury gear from the start. Rest of the article is fine though, although a lot of it is kind of... well, obvious.
