Confirmed 1.9 Patch Notes

[Kevin]

So talent stuns got a huge boost. Improved Revenge is now very good in the pre-raid world again becuase it won't turn the mob immune or make that conc blow you want to do too short, I see a use for it in PvP as well. Paladins can be stun machines (seal of justice was more than a 5% proc rate for me it was more like 25%). Mace rogues are going to be something else to consider in PvP with them stunning like they can. Mace warriors are going to something to consider in PvP as well. I'm not sure people remember how much some of these talents can stun and the fact that they no longer diminish or become diminished is a pretty big change. A prot warrior with improved revenge should have mobs stunned most of the time now between it and conc blow. Since mobs in ZG are not stun immune I'm really going to have to reconsider this talent. I used to really like it until the diminishing returns change and all the other classes have stuns of that nature just made mobs immune too fast.

The paladin reagents better be about 1/10 the cost of the other class buff reagents since one paldin may end up casting 7 blessing 4 times as often.

The change to judgements needing the paladin to hit the mob to refesh it is a bit of a nudge to a "we do want you to be more than buff bots and healers", just a bit though.

I'm glad I didn't crusader my Eskhandar's Claw yet, looks like I'll be getting a lifesteal.

The stupid raid timer reset is in. Grrr.

So did rogues not actually get nerfed in this patch? Sure the buff wasn't huge but at least they got one. :)
