As of patch 3.0.9 Inner Fire will be less annoying due to some, amasingly enough, rather intelligent modifications!

The charges mechanic is still the same, wich doesn’t really bother me that much.

The duration of wich the buff is active has now been extended to 30 minutes wich is a simple yet VERY nice mod!

Inner Fire is made unable to be dispelled!

What this actually means to me is probably alot more positive than of the average PvP-priest. Since the buff more or less always is consumed by charges rather than by the duration being expired, the duration-improvement does not really mean anything in a PvP-point of view. But to me, a true PvE:er, it means i dont have to keep thinking of having Inner Fire up at all times yay! Jarheaded as i am, i consider these sorts of changes to be very appreciated. Furthermore, the fact that it should not be able to be dispelled anymore should’ve been implemented right from the start IMHO, or atleast along with Mages and Warlocks. But, as we all know, better late then never!
