The Slime damage working on Grave Golems is a really big bonus too. I always felt as though I wasn't pull my weight when defending against the Boss or trying to help my team take a Boss.
That seems to be a quality of life / bug fix that things immune to status effects don't prevent you from gaining damage bonuses. I noticed Jaina got the same thing for her trait.
Once patch is up I'll be curios to see if Illidan's invincibility frames during Sweeping Strikes were stealth removed, they were stealth added after all, so I kind of assume it's a bug anyways.

Yeah, Sylvanas is going to be good. She has a ton of mobility and does quite a bit of damage. And of course she pushes like a beast.

I'm watching qxc play possession syl but I can't quite seem to figure out if he gets the minion XP when he possesses it. It would make the skill kind of meh if you lose out on XP and also donate it back to the enemy.

New UI feels a ton better to me I never liked that old one

Sylvanas is so much fun! The mobility is so rewarding to use. People also don't expect the damage of her q

What? You are not killing the minion, you are literally stealing it and giving it 20% HP and damage. I don't see the reason why you should get the experience.

You get exp. And I assume the enemy team doesn't. I just tried possession it's so bad omg. I don't understand how it could ever be preferable. You can't stand around possessing minions -- that's such a waste of time. So what it amounts to is you get to steal 1 and maybe 2 minions every time you shove a wave. And if you want the privilege of possessing a merc at lvl 20, you have to not get blink. And again, you're only gonna be able to possess one of the two (or four). Compare that to having a ranged aoe silence + nuke... no thanks. If Sylvanas was a horrible pusher, maybe possession would make sense. But her basic abilities are good for pushing. And building for pushing (which you think possession would be a part of) means that you're faster at killing minions, which makes possession worse. I don't know about it.

Did anyone else not get their full gold? I'm level 40 and I only got $6,000 when I should have got $10,000 after the patch.

Meh, i don't like the new interface.
It has super cool stuff, like the transitions, which look top quality, but in general feels like a downgrade for me 
I already saw the first fail of this enw interface: You can't see some full character models/buy animations because of the bar at the top -.-

Does Overflowing Quiver seem like a lackluster talent? If you simply remember to fire off a Withering Arrow every time you are about to hit 5 stacks, this talent won't do anything.

I would take $6000 over 10000 gold any day of the week

After one play through on the map I gotta say I'm digging it. Feels maybe a bit too dark for my liking, but the aesthetic is cool and I think the mechanic is very solid. A lot of fun games to be had!

I really don't like that they keep Azmodan at the high life that he has. Also, the Murky buffs are just stupid.

Yeah, but if you possess the enemy mage, you get an instant regen globe!
I tried possession for a few games and I agree. I think the unstable poison talent that makes minions explode is really good at clearing waves, but if you get possession, it kind of defeats the purpose of that talent. It's hard for me to think of a situation where I wouldn't rather have unstable poison over possession if I was going for a lane-clearing style.
I tried out corruption for one game, and although I'm not sure I would regularly take it as a level 1 talent, I have to say, Sylvanas' attack speed coupled with -2 ammo per shot depletes towers and keeps at a frightening rate.

Patch looks fun, like how most top heroes got nerfs but not to big. I'd guess etc, tass and rehgar are top choices now as being relatively untouched (although healing ward hurts a bit). I like how most changes are done through the talents, opening up real choices.
Illidan is tough to say, dont think the hero itself was ever broken. Just well positioned. Perhaps double support meta fades a bit now or increase in jaina/sylvanas stomps him.
Besides those though it looks like there are a ton of close choices now though. Especially ranged assassins look close and warriors (except etc then).

Thank god for Diablo's lightning breath fix. I missed so many times because of that
Also they pretty much remade Uther? holy moly what a list of changes
