Since a lot of things being patched have very small fixes, it seems that they're starting to hone in on what they need to to be satisfied enough to release it. I take this as a good sign.
The no cost primary attacks on the wizard sounds great, but I'm guessing they won't be powerful enough to actually get far exclusively with them.
In all this time I'm playing the Diablo 3 beta, I used exact 1 time the lethal decoy skill. For my style of play that skill is not functional.
I'm anxious for the new skill.
After reading this patch note, it actually doesn't look like we're at all close to release.
- Achievements disabled (presumably due to ongoing problems)
- Auction house ongoing problems.
- New features getting first testing (battletag)
- Database schema changes still (Shown in reason for character wipe).
Database schema is one of the first things locked in because changes to this flow on to many other sections of code. when designing, the database schema is one of the more complicated changes to make.
All in all, this patch does not fill me with confidence for an early 2012 release. Those with predictions in January need to revise, and early Feb might be out too.

DISCLAIMER: I am not in beta.
theres a speculation thread for this. and its been talked to death. no one still thinks its coming in january because of the new sweepstakes that last until the end of january so its obviously not coming out then.

Once the server comes back, I put the video with the Cyclone strike.

No joke there, witch doc is an interesting class I'd love to make it my 2nd or 3rd character, but so many of its skills are just useless.
^a hundred times this^
... ohh and nice patch btw ...
Fix the major bugs, and release the damn game already... then worry about balance at level 13.
