Patch 2.4 for the third time

[skibladr18]

twocentsOk, I promise this is my last patch 2.4 post. I found this and tried posting it twice already and keep putting it into the wrong forum. Hopefully, this is the correct one.
I do not take credit for this patch notes.
List of 2.4 confirmed changes

General
* New Heroic badge rewards (src)
* The summoning restriction in Netherstorm has been lifted (src)
* Characters will now retain talented spell ranks so when they retalent they do not have to relearn the spells from trainers. (src)
* Spell Haste: Spell haste now reduces the global cooldown on spells, down to a minimum of 1 second. This change does not apply to melee and ranged abilities. (src)

PvP
* Players will now be able to purchase level 70 Superior quality PvP items from reputation vendors in Outland. (src)
* Diminishing Returns have been removed from the Honor System. This now means that killing someone worth Honor will reward you with that Honor instantly, rather than each night during Honor calculations. (src)
- A player under Resurrection Sickness is worth no Honor.
- A player who has died 50 or more times in a particular Battleground is worth no Honor for the duration of that Battleground match.

Battlegrounds
* New repeatable Battleground quests (src)

Alterac Valley
*Alterac Valley will see a few very significant improvements in the next patch and we wanted to share the details of what we have planned.
The first change will be to move the Horde's starting tunnel back to a more equal distance from the first objectives, which will help evenly distance the starting points for each side across the terrain when the battle commences.
In addition, the General and Warmasters for each faction will receive a stacking buff from each other that boosts their health and damage. The more of them that are still in the battleground, the more dangerous they will all be. This will put a greater focus on destroying (and defending!) the towers that remove the Warmasters as players work toward defeating the appropriate General and conquering the land.
Also Balinda Stonehearth has been studying her spellbooks to become a more challenging opponent to the Horde and will do more damage with her spells. The additional health we recently added to Balinda and General Vanndar Stormpike will no longer be needed with these improvements and will be changed back to their previous amounts with the patch.
With these improvements teamwork and strategy will be more important than ever from beginning to end as the Alliance and Horde battle for victory in Alterac Valley. We'll see you on the battlefield. (src)

Arenas
* The Shadow Sight effect now increases damage taken by 5% rather than dealing damage periodically. Duration reduced from 21 seconds to 15. (src)

Druid
* Lacerate will now scale with Attack Power, causing it to deal additional damage. (src)

Hunter

Mage
* Spellsteal will no longer overwrite a longer duration buff. (src)
* Players can now only carry 80 Conjured Manna Biscuits at a time. (src)

Shaman
* Healing Grace now also reduces the chance that all of your spells will be dispelled by 10/20/30%. (src)

* Ritual of Summoning can now be used to summon players into instances. Provided the player meets all entry requirements, they can be summoned in from anywhere in the game world. (src)

Warrior
* Endless Rage bug fixed. The talent should now generate substantially more rage than previously. (src)
* Off-hand critical hits from Whirlwind will now trigger Flurry and Rampage. (src)

User Interface
* GM messages now appear with a Blizzard icon near their name. (src)
* When looting Bind on Pickup items, the confirmation dialogue now lists the name of the item in the dialogue. You can now verify that you are picking up the correct bind on pickup item. (src)
* Bind on Pickup items that only you can pick up (Heroic Badges for instance) will no longer bring up a confirmation dialogue. (src)
* The profession UI search field has been improved and now allows for searching of more types of things. For instance you can search for items by socket color, by effect ("Critical Strike" for instance) or search gems by their effect ("Strength" for instance). In addition, the searching of items by level has been made more intuitive. You can now search for items by level with "15-20" to search for items that you can make that have a minimum level required of 15 to 20. (src)

There, correct section now!

[Tease]

As far as I know, though, these aren't patch notes, but merely various blue posts about 2.4 put together by sites such as mmo champion in a "patch-note-looking way".

Especially seeing as 2.4 hasn't hit PTRs yet.
