Magic 3.1 changes and updates 10/15/2013 07:57 AM CDT
Are any of our spells going to be seeing anything like the minor/major revisions that were posted over in the Moon Mage forums?
Additionally, do we have any updates on KW, Revelation, and Abeyant Orison, and any other old spells I forgot (or new planned ones)?

I'd suggest to gather up a list of known buddy things with clerical spells and make a list and then post that list.

Most of the spellslot, signature spell, and buff style tweaking has already been done for Clerics and is live in all instances. 3.1 will have Revelation, and some back end changes to the group cast buffs to allow the cast <self/group/area>.

So was KW scrapped? I remember hearing that they wanted to shy away from guilds having buffs/debuffs to their tert skills, but this has already been ignored dozenfold by every guild (and many other spells are far greater offenders, Clerics included) - so I certainly hope that isn't the only reason if so.

Nope, we're just dividing time between all the guilds for getting the last few spells done, while continuing to balance and rework existing ones. The original plan for KW was a aoe stealth debilitation, and as far as I know it hasn't changed. AO is the other cleric spell mentioned, and I'm not sure its functionality from 2.1 has as much need in 3.x, so it may sail away quietly in the night or return as something different.

Aside from it being a cyclic, the functionality is about the same.
