Debuff Limit revoked
This debuff limit has come up in discussion and was bothering me in 25 man raids. Good news its gone!

World of Warcraft - English (NA) Forums -> The Debuff Limit and You

We changed how the game handles debuffs (ie negative state effects on targets) on creatures with Wrath of the Lich King. The old hard cap of 40 debuffs on a target no longer effectively exists. You can now apply way more debuffs to a target without them dropping off before their duration expires. The default WoW UI will not normally display all these debuffs, but they really are still there!
