woohoo! Guild banks, faster leveling and a new 10 man instance just to name a few things. I am most excited about this change though to a pally talent:

Weapon Expertise (Protection) renamed Combat Expertise, now increases expertise by 1/2/3/4/5 and total Stamina by 2/4/6/8/10%
I hope it stays that way. 10% of my pre buff stamina is 1000 HPs! It is like a permanent kings buff.

sweet PTR is saying 2 badges per boss in kara and ZA and 3 per boss for the last bosses in ZA, maybe kara too, also a quaest item in ZA thats turn in reward is 10 badges
 
I'm on the PTR "holyroller" on the pvp server.

I love every priest change except the change to our 41 point discipline talent, which is ultimately a nerf.
In my full out healing gear (+1693 unbuffed), I have 620 spell damage now, compared to 74 pre2.3 :)
Switching out 5 pieces for higher +spell damage, I can up that to 667 and maintain +1450 healing
My unbuffed mana regen is now 188 in my full out healing gear
Starshards is now in my spell rotation
Definate noticable increase in healing done by holy nova
Slight increase in healing done by Circle of healing
3 minute affect \ 3 minute cooldown fear ward will pretty usefull to have in the guild. Will make HKM a snap with a good FW rotation.

They gyro copter looks simply SWEEET!!!

Improved quest giver and quest turn ins on the mini map
You can now track items on the minimap
Daily Heroic instance quests (~24 gold on turn in)
Daily non-heroic instance quests (~16 gold on turn in)
Daily BG quests (~8 gold on turn in plus additional BG marks)
Daily cooking quests
The new heroic badge turn in items are on par or better then Kara gear.
 
I do wish they would define more clearly what is a pally tank weapon and a DPS class weapon, they all seem to be too interchangeable. =P

I retract that statement, and replace it with: "If they are going to give paladins DPS Class weapons, they should offer more to choose from."

Hence:

It's perfectly clear, if a pally can wield it and it has spell damage and stam its a pally tank weapon:P the more aggro we generate the more DPS can go all out behind us, its a win-win:P
