There are plenty of folks talking about the bosses on the PTR, the change to the hearthstone (link to blue post here ’cause it’s funny), dual-talent specs, and so forth, but today BRK posted a picture that piqued my interest, and not because of the numbers in the center of the screen, but rather the little box at the top:

Now that’s what I’m talking about! A way to know that you’re going to be saved to a raid or heroic before it actually happens–and you even get a “Leave Instance” button so you don’t have to make a mad dash for the exit! This is quite possibly my favorite 3.1 change so far.

Just a quick note to say thank you for running dungeons with us. I’m always relieved when I’m healing you, because I know things will be done right. And, if something does happen it won’t automatically be blamed on the healer =) It all goes back to one of your previous posts about the connection between the healer and the tank.

Yeah thats a good idea, cause dickhead M’Fers will invite you to Wintergrasp Raid and do a Vault run weather it be reg or heroic, and you get saved then bam ninja’d no last boss. I’ve seen it happen alot its hella fucked up.
