a few of the big ones i like are:
* A representative of the Keepers of Time has been spotted at the World's End Tavern in Shattrath. Players in good standing with the faction will be granted ease of passage to the Caverns of Time.
* Spirit-Based Mana Regeneration: This system has been adjusted so that as your intellect rises, you will regenerate more mana per point of spirit. (Priests will LOVE this)
* Diminishing returns on honor for kills is being eliminated.
* Honor will now be instantly calculated, and available for player use.
* Non-corporeal Undead and Mechanical creatures are now susceptible to bleed effects.
AV -> There is now a Join as Party option.
WSG -> When both flags are held, the flag carriers will receive 50% increased damage done to them after approximately 10 minutes and 100% increased damage after approximately 15 minutes.
* Players can now turn in one of each battleground mark for an honor reward. The questgivers for this turn-in are the Horde Warbringer and the Alliance Brigadier General and can be found near the battlemasters in the capital cities.

* Players will no longer require an attunement quest to enter Hyjal.

* Players will now be able to purchase level 70 Superior quality PvP items from reputation vendors. (For those BRAND new 70s that are into PVP)
* Players will now be able to inspect other players via their chat link.
* Players may now inspect players of the opposing faction while they are not flagged for PvP.
* Paladin Healer Gladiator Sets: The set bonus changing Hammer of Justice cooldown has been changed to a set bonus increasing the amount healed by Holy Shock.
* Resilience has been added to all Retribution Paladin PvP gear.
* Combat Log Improvements
* New tabs are available for sorting combat messages.
