August 30, 2023

September 6, 2023

Classes

  • Evoker
    • Preservation
      • Rescue will no longer cause Verdant Embrace to be placed on cooldown if used while Flow State is active.

Items

  • The Whirring Chainblade now has its appropriate minimum level required.
  • Engineering
    • Fixed a bug that caused Chromatically Calibrated engineering goggles to require level 58 to transmogrify.

Quests

  • The Legend of Mechagon can now be properly completed by all characters.

WoW Classic Hardcore

  • The String of Ears buff earned for Mak’gora kills now persists through death.
  • Developers’ notes: This will allow the new Classic API to report the correct Mak’gora kill count for deceased characters.

September 12, 2023

Achievements

  • Fixed an issue that was preventing players from being properly granted the baseline Challenger, Rival, and Duelist

WoW Classic

  • Fixed a bug that prevented the NPC Tyrion from turning back into a quest-giver at the conclusion of the quest “The Attack!”
  • Hardcore Realms
    • The Coarse Dynamite thrown by civilian dwarf NPCs at Dun Modr should no longer cause players to become PvP flagged.
    • Developers’ notes: These specific NPCs had a very small chance to hit you and flag you, so it may as well be zero chance. Nonetheless, we do not intend to make changes to the general behavior of enemy faction guards in Hardcore. Players who wish to avoid being flagged for PvP should avoid enemy faction settlements and quests labeled “PvP” in the Quest Log.

September 13, 2023

Player versus Player

  • Sarannis’ Mystic Sheen effectiveness reduced by 70% in PvP.

Secrets of Azeroth

  • On the secret day starting with “They Are Always Listening”, you should now get the quest “A Complete Inventory” from Fangli Hoot if you do not get it automatically by investigating all 6 notes.
  • Updated some of the quests to address issues where players could fail to receive a clue because secrets had been started on different characters.

WoW Classic Era and Hardcore

  • Fixed an issue where certain hunter pets could be dismissed and attack nearby players.

September 15, 2023

Dragon Racing

  • Adjusted Gold and Silver times for the Flashfrost Flyover Reverse Challenge race. These were inadvertently set too high.

Professions

  • Engineering
    • Engineers can now purchase Sprocket Containers from Hobart Grapplehammer in Legion Dalaran at a cost of 50 Leystone and 10 Felslate each.

Rewards

  • Fixed a bug that caused Zaqali Elders’ loot to drop at a lower item level than intended.

WoW Classic Era

  • [With Realm Restarts] Fixed a bug affecting bonus Honor awarded for Alterac Valley.
  • Completing “Fish in a Bucket” no longer rewards gold.
    • Developers’ notes: This change was originally made in patch 2.0.10 and works well in Classic Era/Hardcore, as the original quest provided an uncontested, single-faction, infinitely repeatable, low risk gold reward that does not comport with the nature of the rest of the game.

I just checked Hobart in Legion Dalaran and he does not seem to be selling this

For some reason, it is not visible to every character.

My level 70 character, with 100/100 Legion Engineering with a fully completed engi questline cannot see nor purchase the container.
My level 42 character, with 1/100 Legion Engineering and 0 quests done can see and purchase the container from the vendor.

EDIT: Aaaand now I can see it on my level 70 as well. All I had to do was to find a fresh shard, where the vendor had refreshed inventory. I guess it will be available everywhere after the daily/weekly reset.

September 18, 2023

Player versus Player [with scheduled weekly maintenance]

  • Evoker
    • Disintegrate damage increased by 33% in PvP combat (was 20%).
    • Developers’ notes: Devastation’s killing power outside of cooldowns is lower than we’d like, so we’re increasing Disintegrate damage further to help Devastation in PvP. In future patches, we would like to further expand on this effort and move damage out of Dragonrage and into other areas.
  • Priest
    • Discipline
      • Penance healing is increased by 35% in PvP combat (was 15%).

  • Lord Andestrasz has been found in Waking Shores, and should no longer be invisible to some players.

WoW Classic

  • Hardcore
    • On Hardcore realms, mind control spells can not be used during normal duels.
      • Developers’ notes: There should be no change to duels on non-Hardcore realms, and this should not prevent players from using mind control spells during Mak’gora duels to the death.
    • Added an identifier that will show you the player class and level on hover-over, when challenged to a duel to the death.
