@evonath: Right, list of changes I noticed in Duskwood... Obviously gonna be a spoiler heavy post!
Hunters rejoice: There are black owls and bears in the zone. :-D
Feral worgen mobs look like the playable ones now. The caster ones are wearing caster gear etc. :-)
The Yorgen Farmstead is no longer filled with Syndicate (or was it Defias?) mobs, but rather with some kind of plagued Lashers. Also lots of neutral boars there...
Found a new Gilnean quest NPC at a Night Watch camp. Seems to start a chain involving the feral worgen in the area. :-D
Addle's Stead is full of ghosts. Not sure if this is a new place because I can't remember it. It's a farm in the southwestern part of the zone.
Raven Hill has a neat looking Gilnean questhub camp in it complete with an FP. :-D Think Jitters had a new quest as well.
New quests in Darkshire. A Gilnean named Tobias Mistmantle... The town also got a nice fountain in the middle. :-)
Abercombie the Hermit has taken up residence in the ex-Forsaken tower Beggar's Haunt.
And that's all I could find for now. Terrain-wise, this zone has barely changed at all but I really don't think it's necessary. The zone has always had a nice feel to it IMO and with all the new worgen quests there it should fit nicely. :-)

Had a couple of Priest questions.
Anybody had a chance to try out PW:Barrier yet? If so, I had a couple of questions on it.
How large an area does it throw down?
Is it targetable (i.e. DnD) or is it an exorcism effect?
Also a Chakra question. Does it activate when you cast 3 of the same heal in a row (i.e. renew, renew, renew) or any 3 of those mentioned in the tooltip in a row.
Also, Flash heal seems to be left out of the trees now and "heal" seems to be in. Is it the new go to heal for Priests?
Can't say much about priests as I haven't tried healing instances as one yet, but I've got a screenie of PW: Barrier that should show the size of it.

Beautiful animation by the way... don't think it's targetable - seems to work exactly like Anti Magic Zone.
Yup - Chakra requires the spells to be cast three times in a row for the effect to happen.
Not sure about Flash Heal. I've seen disc priests use it as a filler when they have 5 Evangelism stacks up.

A few more questions if you dont mind, someone said earlier in this thread they had a warlock in beta and I would like some more info on some spells if possible.
Firstly can you confirm shadowflame applies fear to the target, is this aoe fear or single target?
Secondly summon infernal in the cataclysm data on Wowhead has meta as a requirement, is this correct or can any spec summon an infernal?
Many thanks Kracked
Shadowflame applies a fear effect (seems to act more like a disorient effect like Scatter shot though... they don't run away like the regular fear) that lasts for 6 sec. :-)
Although my premade lock doesn't have Doomguard and Infernal yet I can still see the tooltip in the spellbook. It doesn't require Meta.

I've got a quesiton regarding the new zones and some of the old ones - as we know, Quel'Thalas and Bloodmyst Isle are in "Outland Universe", I mean to get to them you have to go through the loading screen. Is it the same in beta? Do the new zones like Hyjal, Vashj'ir, Gilneas, Twilight Highlands and Deepholm also require going through a loading screen to get to?
I can't imagine flying in old Azeroth and having a loading screen in mid-air while changing zones... And I always wanted to see Silvermoon from up above.

I'm fairly certain the TBC starter zones still get a loading screen, but I'll have to go check it out later.
As for the new zones: Nope, none of these has a loading screen except for Deepholm, but that's because you can only get there through a portal. (or the very awesome entry quest)

Gonna definitely need some confirmation on this,
the death of Sylvanas,
and her assassin being this.

I just found out about this a bit ago and I will do the quest on a high level toon in a moment.
I can confirm that Sylvanas doesn't die permanently though as she is present in WPL among others.
That Night Elf high-priest is still at Uther's Tomb. Unless there'll be some major phasing during those few WPL quests I haven't done yet I'm calling fake on that one. The NPC isn't in WoWhead's cata database either.
Yup, Lord Godfrey is back as an undead... will be back with more. ;-)

Alright, thanks for the confirmation. Any idea on how she gets revived? I heard that the Val'kyr attempt to resurrect her, but end up dying in the process. Also, how does Godfrey kill her, if you could explain?

Servers went down after I posted that last edit... back in action now, just retrieved Godfrey's body so let's see.
Ironically, I think these undead quests provide a better Worgen experience than the actual Worgen leveling quests. They're really well made. :-)

Have to say that these undead quests provide a better Worgen experience than the actual Worgen leveling quests...
How so? Because there already Worgen everywhere during the Forsaken's quests when the Worgen starting quests had more humans than worgen?

Starting out with a spoiler warning.
What I meant is that this chain actually made me want to play a worgen, unlike the Worgen leveling experience which rather had me going "I want to go back to my goblin." It showed Worgen doing cool and heroic things that you didn't get to see in the normal chain. I'll spoil as little as possible...
You get to see some cool aspects of the Worgen race that their chain doesn't show. They have animalistic instincts and can for instance feel the scent of hiding enemies very well. They also seem to have a hierarchy system with each pack having an alpha male. :-p Crowley is pretty badass in these quests too...
You also get to see some people drinking Worgen blood in to transform.
It sort of feels like you're doing the Worgen quests but on the forsaken side - even though this is actually during the aftermath of the battle for Gilneas from the Worgen quests. Hard to explain. :-p
Sorry for the wall of text... almost forgot to answer the original question.

: It was sort of anticlimatic really... Godfrey ran up behind her and shot her in the neck with a rifle at point blank while she was talking after winning a battle. After this, the player along with three Val'kyr and an orc named High Warlord Cromush fought Godfrey and his two pals, but right when Godfrey dropped to 1% health he yelled "FALL BACK, BROTHERS! TO SHADOWFANG!" and ported away. Guess who'll be the boss in heroic SFK...? :-)
The Val'kyr proceeded to resurrect Sylvanas and that was it.

A shaman question:
How effective is Primal Wisdom in the Enhancement tree?
