  • Display both text/percent on status bars option
  • Monk Stagger bar displays the amount of staggered damage the monk will take in the next 10 seconds.
  • Absorption effects are now displayed over the default UI's health bars; it is possible for addons to retrieve the total amount of absorption stacked on a unit.
  • SecureActionButtonTemplate has a new "togglemenu" action type, which (securely) opens a unit popup menu for the unit specified by the action button.
  • Items in void storage can now be used to transmogrify items in your inventory. (API calls implemented, but no UI added: and )
  • Raid difficulty functions and were renamed to and respectively.
  • New API exposes basic information about difficulty IDs.
  • Battle pet cooldowns are now exposed through.
  • replaces the global.
  • Almost all (if not all) C_PetJournal functions have had their "isWild" argument removed.
  • Passing a nil PetID to a C_PetJournal function will now cause a Lua error. Previously, the function would just return nil.
  • now returns a full texture path.
  • is broken and always returns nil.
  • appears to always return nil.
  • Global has moved from FrameXML into the addon Blizzard_PVPUI. Addons relying on will have to find a workaround (it's a constant value, 2 right now, so you can use that) or watch "ADDON_LOADED" for the PVPUI.
  • The global values in the form are now more easily accessed through (stringType, tag, phase).
