Pretty well done patch overall. Reflect dmg is no longer an issue - really glad this got the nerf hammer 
Plagued hits REALLY hard now, as promised, but its fairly easy to avoid and mitigate in most circumstances. Although plagued with horde on fast monsters can make things a bit hairy.
Really like the exp boost also, however i think my favorite aspect so far is the ability to use Vanishing Dye on legendary items now. I love Storm Crow's functionality, but it is HORRIBLY designed, and thankfully my wiz doesn't look like a bird face anymore. Hated looking at that upon logging in.
Did they buff Azmodan some? I haven't read all the patch notes but seems like he has some sort of enrage ability now. Me and a friend were playing him on mp8 recently and he kicked our tails. We've never had this issue before, even playing on high mp levels, so I'm assuming he has some sort of buff now. I guess it makes sense, since he was a joke before, especially compared to Belial or Diablo.
PvP - not much to say here. Imbalanced as promised. All 1-2 hit kills. Its fun for a bit, but gets old fairly fast. They should really reduce damage for ALL classes by at least 50%, maybe more. Witch Doctors are owning everyone though, with that zombie dog sacrifice/explosion build.
