World Of Warcraft Talents
62Talent points are an important part of a player-character in World of Warcraft. Talent points are one the ways a player has to customize a character. Players ‘spend’ talent points in one of three categories (categories are also called talent trees). A talent point is awarded to the player at level 10, and one talent point is awarded per level after level 10.
Talents give a player character additional abilities or enhance existing abilities. This talent point system allows players to craft a character that suits their playing style. It also allows players to differentiate their character from other characters of the same class. (Class means the type of character; such as warrior, rogue, hunter, and so on.)
A ‘build’ is a collection of talent points spent in a certain pattern. There are three talent trees available to each class. So a build will consist of the abilities or enhancements the player has selected from the three talent trees available to the class. Players for each class have developed standard builds that they share with each other. Players may also use non-standard builds.
The three talent trees typically offer differing strengths. There is usually a talent tree that enhances offensive abilities, a talent tree that enhances defensive abilities, and a utility tree. Thus, by carefully spending their talent points, players can customize their characters to be offensive, defensive, utility, or as is most typical, a combination of two of the trees.
Below is a list of the classes in World of Warcraft, and the talent trees they can spend their talent points on.

Druid: Balance, Feral Combat, Restoration
Hunter: Beast Mastery, Marksmanship, Survival
Mage: Arcane, Frost, Fire
Paladin: Holy, Protection, Retribution
Priest: Shadow, Holy, Discipline
Rogue: Assassination, Combat, Subtlety
Shaman: Elemental, Enhancement, Restoration
Warlock: Affliction, Demonology, Destruction
Warrior:Fury, Arms, Protection
A couple of important facts about builds should be noted. First, builds are not set in stone. For a price in gold, a player can visit a trainer and ‘buy back’ all their talent points, allowing them to spend them again on a different build. Second, top-level guilds may require certain builds of their members. For example, some guilds will require that their Priests have damage builds, and their Paladins have healing builds.

- Mists of Pandaria Beta: Now with weather
Mumper, Blizzard game designer, has confirmed that weather has been implemented in the latest MoP patch. Mumper We just added weather to all the zones in the last build. If you are not seeing it yet, just give it some time to show up. source While weather was implemented in both vanilla WoW and The Burning Crusade, most of the Wrath of the Lich King zones and all of the new Cataclysm zones did not have weather changes. Having rain in the MoP areas will be a nice addition to an already visually gorgeous expansion. A few forum posters have reported seeing weather in some zones, but as it is up to the RNG, your mileage may vary. Have you seen any precipitation or other meteorological events in the latest beta patch? It's open warfare between Alliance and Horde in Mists of Pandaria, World of Warcraft's next expansion. Jump into five new levels with new talents and class mechanics, try the new monk class, and create a pandaren character to ally with either Horde or Alliance. Look for expansion basics in our Mists FAQ, or dig into our spring press event coverage for more details!

- WRUP: Oops, Fox got lost edition
Every week, just at the start of the weekend, we catch up with the WoW Insider staff and ask them, "What are you playing this week?" -- otherwise known as: WRUP. Join us to see what we're up to in and out of game, and catch us in the comments to let us know what you're playing, too! Ladies and gentlemen, I'm afraid I'm taking over the column this week, as our own Fox Van Allen is lost in the middle of pre-Cataclysm Thousand Needles, far from his west coast destination. Do not fret over Fox's fate; he merely has to find a friendly local centaur to ask for directions, somewhere on the canyon floor. Wait ... those centaur aren't exactly friendly, are they? Well, maybe he can find Freewind Post somewhere along the line. While Fox figures his way out of a time/space/video game conundrum, we've got a way more important matter to attend to. What the heck is everyone playing this weekend?Continue reading WRUP: Oops, Fox got lost editionFiled under: WoW Insider BusinessWRUP: Oops, Fox got lost edition originally appeared on WoW Insider on Fri, 01 Jun 2012 20:00:00 EST.
