[Ragingwolf 310]

All these changes in the alpha for MW Monk I might dust mine off for DF content.  Some are rather intriguing of just reading the description.  I see changes for MM and Survival Hunter but very little actual change for BM.  Devour Magic and Drain Soul are interesting and would like to try those out as Demonology.  Warrior has me intrigued with some of their new talents and i'm curious of Odin's Fury which is not live at this time.
