yes - I had updated - turns out my bars had mysteriously been placed off screen and Nordy suggested I hit reset under the positioning tab and voila! They popped in the center of the screen so I could put them back where they were supposed to be.

Pally Power (updated version) seems stable for now - but I have not been back in a raid. It had worked fine in an instance and then failed in the new raid. I had thrown it out, used the old one, and it failed as well. So there may have been some kind of conflict there. I have turned off just about everything but my bare essentials and things seem pretty stable at the moment.

Cheers

Although I'm sure it's still nowhere near what it was day 1, the droprate on Battered Hilts has been increased: http://www.wow.com/2009/12/15/in-game-fixes-for-december-15th/

Also note that Skeletal Slaves, which had become the mob of choice for farming the Hilt, will now drop neither the Hilt nor any other trash epics.

In case you're having trouble, this is how you do it.

1) Get a tank that knows what he's doing.
2) Have the tank start off with the purple(Cologne?) potion buff first as he tanks Hummel away from the group(Facing the stable), and he basically takes no damage.
3) Have the tank pick up the second mob that joins the fight. When Hummel dies, tank switches to green potion.
4) Tank second mob(Baxter?) until dead. Try to pick up the third one, fail becaues he really just runs around and throws potions.
5) Kill Frye.
6) Loot.

For dps/healers, you can pick whichever color you want, and when Frye starts throwing potions on the ground, don't stand in the opposite color/fragrance than you are protected from, i.e., if you're protected from cologne, don't stand in perfume clouds. Feel free to stand in the clouds you're protected from, as you'll take no damage.

On the first day we did this fight with no healers, and no one died. Granted, we did have the healing of two shadow priests to help a little. You can have your dps offtank the other two adds, but it's completely unnecessary if your tank is geared at least to about Ulduar/ToC 10 man level.
