how is the mana/focus change a nerf? No one knows what its going to be like. It could be a huge buff to dps. Of course there is nothing to compare too. You can't be level 85 and say "Omg, i'd be doing x% more dps if focus was still mana, or visa versa.
What it's done is made those classes that rely on agilty (Hunters, Rogues and kittys) use the same resource. And a hunter using mana made no sense to begin with. Especially the intellect they needed on armor. Oh well.
It'll all be good, and when a beta of Cataclysm comes out, and you're playing on it, then you can complain about what is and isn't a buff, and how you feel jipped out of dps or whatever.

fixed it for you, believe it or not, enhance shammys DO use agility like rogues, cat druids, and hunters.
that being said, this thread is too ahead of it's time, we need to know in greater detail WHAT is being nerfed/fixed, and then do a spectacular nerdrage or victory dance depending on the circunstances......
rite now the changes are minimal, besides the new stats relocation and the mastery sistem, the only known class changes of note are the hunter's shift from mana to focus (wich will made them unable to use manapots, but then again I don't think many hunters relied on mana pots so it's not a big problem) and the revamp of soul harvesting for warlocks, as souls will no longer be items on the inventory, nor will they be used to summon demons or stones, instead they are now like the DK's runes, and are spent to power-up the rest of the warlock powers.....
other than those 2 changes, we don't know squat about what's in store for the rest of the classes, wheter a new revamp of the paladin's seal/judgement is in the horizon, or a new way to use combopoints and finisher moves on the rogues, or whatever.
wait till more is posted, and then rejoice on the people doing QQ; or Pew-pew-

reason i left out Enh. Shamans was because unless they pulled a seperate form thing like druids it's weird to have focus for shamans, since they are a magic/caster class, even Enh shamans. But you are correct, Enh Shamans do rely on Agility.

indeed, it seems that on cataclysm, shamans will be the last "mana-user" agility based class.
wich means that mail with INT on it, it's shaman 100%, whereas mail without INT on it is hunter for sure.
of course, blizzard could pull off something weird like "Elemental Lord" transformation for enhance shammys, replacing mana for "Elemental Rage" and boom, we're now like the hunters xD.
but as I said to the OP; it's still too early to be crying or celebrating the changes, as only 2 are known and not even fully detailed.
we gotta wait till more stuff is revealed and THEN we go QQ or Pew-Pew.
