Blizzard has published a list of changes that may appear to be a bug to players but is indeed meant to be in the game.
With TBC pre-patch upon us, players will start playing around with their updated characters and may notice things working a bit differently than classic or even how they remember it back in 2007.

Paladin:
- Paladin Seals will not proc from Crusader Strike damage as well as several other paladin procs and abilities (including Vindication).
