From
http://www.mmo-champion.com/content/:
Dust Cloud's cooldown and duration have been modified to make it closer aligned with Tailspin (same effect, different pet)
In addition:
* Pets now have 70% of the master's armor, rather than a different value based on which type of pet they are.
* Shale Spiders now correctly have a special ability (Web Wrap).
* Bad Manner (monkey) now properly breaks from damage.
For hunters:
* Aimed Shot! weapon damage has been increased to 200%.
* Aspect of the Wild, Aspect of the Hawk, and Aspect of the Fox can now be cast while mounted.
* Deterrence now provides 100% chance for melee attacks to miss instead of 100% parry chance. This means that attacks that cannot be parried, notably some rogue abilities, can now be prevented by Deterrence, and the hunter will gain the benefit of Deterrence even if disarmed.
* Dust Cloud's cooldown and duration have been modified to make it closer aligned with Tailspin (same effect, different pet).
* Kill Command's damage has been increased by 20%.
* Kill Shot's attack power scaling has been increased by 50%.
* Master's Call now has a 35-second cooldown, down from 1 minute. In addition, the visual effect is more obvious.
Talent Specializations
Marksmanship
* Chimera Shot's attack power scaling has been increased by 20%.
Survival
* Into the Wilderness (passive) has been reduced to a 10% Agility increase, down from 15%.
Yey

Yeah sorry didn't mean to double post. This thread had a misleading title to me XD Didn't realize it was about the PTR.
Hmm... I'm kinda excited for the changes... kinda... not. I have to get on PTR first. I totally love the BM/MM buffs, but I'm not sure if that's going to solve my real enemy in those specs: AKA Focus. I am constantly fighting to get more focus as BM @_@

It does, in fact! I bring the sauce, you dance. When I dance, it's not so much dancing as it is wiggling in place.

So this means I don't have to feel bad using any of my three striders, woot.
Personally what did it for me in these notes was Guild perk speed effecting flight form and Warstomp in forms, oooh yes. [/edit] And levitate! I love pissing about levitating around on my Priest.

I'm safely assuming that the Web Wrap will be the same as for spiders and silithids. Hrmz. In any case, it's about darn time!
Poor widdle squeemonsters were neglected all this time.....

What *I* want to know about PTR: have our missing rares popped up yet? Or the lovely reskins? How about tameable Death Ravager?
..... so tempted to actually copy a character for once.

I wonder if Deterrence will work while taming now? Can't parry while channeling but if it's a straight miss ...
