i read the patch notes, i didnt see anything mentioned about cleave or whirlwind in them. Are you talking about the test realm patch notes on wowhead?

Post by bosik

There was mention of a warlock pet not breaking CC with its cleave. I'd have to go back and look to see if it applied to warriors as well.

Yes it said that on the wowhead test realm patch notes. But it wasnt implimented in 2.4. I checked the live patch notes myself.

It was also supposed to effect shaman chain lightning. None of them were implimented.

Chain lightning was implemented, that was in the patch notes, as was avenger's shield. WW and cleave will still strike CCd targets though.

Is not getting a buff that others got the same as a nerf?

Not starting anything, just a semantic question.

Please tell me where in this you see that:

Shaman
Call of Thunder: (Rank 5) now gives 5% critical strike chance, down from 6%.
Earth Shield: Mana cost reduced roughly in half, and charges reduced from 10 to 6.
Elemental Focus: This buff will no longer be removed when Shamanistic Focus is triggered.
Flametongue Weapon: Having different ranks of this enchantment cast on two different weapons will no longer cause the enchantments to trigger multiple times per swing.
Ghost Wolf: Cast time reduced to 2 seconds, down from 3.
The Global Cooldown of all Totems has been reduced to 1 seconds, down from 1.5 seconds.
Healing Grace: This talent now reduces the chance your spells will be dispelled by 10/20/30%. The resistance to being dispelled modifier from this talent now applies correctly to Water Breathing.
Rockbiter Weapon: Tooltip and error messages have been adjusted slightly.
Shamanistic Rage is now a Physical ability instead of a Magic spell, and thus is no longer dispellable. It now reduces all damage taken by 30% and gives your successful melee attacks a chance to regenerate mana equal to 30% of your attack power. This lasts for 15 seconds with a 2 minute cooldown.
Stormstrike has a new icon.
Totem timer icons will now show up under your player portrait when you cast totem spells. Right-clicking a totem timer icon will destroy that totem.
Toughness will now also reduce the duration of movement slowing effects on you by 10/20/30/40/50%.
Tremor Totem now pulses every 3 seconds, down from 4 seconds.
The Shaman spell Fire Nova Totem will no longer sometime detonate without doing any damage.

====================================

The only one that was implimented was prot pally's avenging shield. Nothing else got through.

Ah, I know what I'm thinking of, it's a weapon proc of chain lightning that they buffed:

: The Chain Lightning cast by this item will no longer jump to secondary targets which are under the effect of crowd-control spells that break on taking damage. i.e. Polymorph, Sap, etc.

Taken from Blizzard's official patch notes
Patch Notes "The Fury of the Sunwell" - 2.4

Taken from Blizzard's official patch notes.
Official Patchnotes from www.WorldofWarcraft.com

I know, how about instead of everyone posting random websites "official" patch notes, you go read the patch notes that came with the patch residing in your world of warcraft folder on your hard drive.

Cleave WILL break CC's. Period.
