Its not bad. I use it on mobs and it should eliminate runners (I have yet to meet one.) I spec'd into it for testing and I'm not sure if I'll keep it. Berserk is really nice. Its a great kind of "all in" ability. I rarely run out of energy when I combine Berserk and Tiger's Fury.

Anyone else notice that old world humanoids are far more likely to be runners than Outland humanoids. I don't recall all that many while leveling in the Outlands (though I dinged 70 about 2/3 of the way thru BEM with both toons), while in the old world there were quite a few mobs that ran.

While I didn't like it all that much, it was sort of neat having all humanoids run. I, for one, wish Blizzard was more consistent about making all humanoids runners.

According to a recent post on EJ, it does??

I also talked to a Feral in beta who said that Infected Wounds does work on bosses. Although, it seems IW will be the same as Improved Thunderclap or the Judgement boost pallies got so if you have those in the raid you wouldn't need IW in your build at 80.

All I can speak to is my experience in Nexus. When I was in Nexus perhaps most of those mobs are immune to the effect. Once or twice I saw the debuff show up to be instantly removed. I never got it stacked.

Again from EJ...

DKs will also eat the debuff repeatedly w/ obliterate and a few of there other abilities

So, did you have a DK in your group?

God I didn't even think of that. We had a Death Knight in there with us. So yeah its possible he was eating it as frequently as I was putting it on.

That was probably it. There appears to be DK bug in that their abilities "eat" diseases other than their own.
