A new build has been ... well, discovered, and just like the previous one I have no idea if it will be ever pushed on beta realms. That's not a reason to not work on the changes and give it a stupid codename, stay tuned for more updates!

Spell Diffs
These changes are from the comparison of game files, they are not official changes and nothing is final until it's confirmed by Blizzard AND on live servers. It could be a simple test change, or me being stupid and not doing things properly.
