Are you planning to carry your World of Warcraft character into the mists of Pandaria? If so, you should probably have a look at how your talents will be changed when the expansion lands sometime next year. Blizzard has released the first version of its official Mists talent calculator, giving you a chance to test a few builds out. Check it out right here.

Of course, talents, spells, and everything else you find in an expansion are always in flux, so don’t get too attached to anything you create. The calculator is just intended as a tool to familiarize you with class changes and prepare for your first few days – not as a concrete promise of what your character is going to be like when the game launches.
Before you get too excited, the talent calculator is sadly missing the new Monk class, so if you were ready to plan out your Brewmaster you’re going to have to wait a few more weeks. Other than that, the calculator is available for all classes.
Honestly, I hope there are some big changes coming. I just went through the Mage and Shaman talent calcs and they’re pretty awful. The new tier system has promise, but not if it forces you to take things you’re never going to use. The focus on Polymorph for Mages is curious – sheeping hasn’t been important since the pre-TBC days (unless something changed with Cataclysm?)
What do you think of the new talent system?
