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Developers’ notes: This change was originally made in patch 2.0.10 and works well in Classic Era/Hardcore, as the original quest provided an uncontested, single-faction, infinitely repeatable, low risk gold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.
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.
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%).
Shaman
Elemental
Volcanic Surge now increases the damage of Lava Burst by 45% (was 55%) and Lightning Bolt / Chain Lightning by 50% (was 35%).
Restoration
Riptide healing is now increased by 25% in PvP Combat (was 10%).
Healing Stream Totem healing is now increased by 30% in PvP Combat (was 20%).
Warlock
Affliction
Unstable Affliction’s backlash damage increased by 35%.
Fixed a bug preventing the objective counter from increasing when survivors were rescued for “Refti Retribution”.
Fixed a bug that prevented some players from turning in the quest “The Nokhud Offensive: Founders Keepers”.
WoW Classic Era
The most-recent Alterac Valley bonus weekend has been extended. The bonus will end when the next bonus weekend (Warsong Gulch) begins on Friday, September 22.
Fixed an issue that caused the Unstoppable Growth talent to not function.
Events
Brewfest Hops no longer affect dragonriding mounts.
When dragonriding in Eastern Kingdoms Cup races, players will now be temporarily granted fully unlocked dragonriding, regardless of their current Dragonriding Talent Tree state.
WoW Classic Era
Fixed an issue that prevented Ouro from spawning after a post-wipe reset.
A number of creatures on Mechagon Island have been scaled down so that they are no longer lethal to lower-level players.
Bragdur Battlebrew again offers the Horde version of “Brew of the Month” Club Membership Form, as intended.
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.
Wrath Classic
Fixed a bug that caused the Joyous Journeys bonus to unintentionally disappear.
Fixed an issue with the Airborne Recovery dragonriding talent that would cause Aerial Halt to not regenerate a Vigor when cast during Thrill of the Skies.
Items
Fixed a bug that could prevent Everlasting Horn of Lavaswimming from dropping as intended on completion of the Siege of Dragonbane Keep.
Fixed a bug that could cause a failure to receive a Warcraft Rumble toy reward. If you earned a toy, but did not receive the item, click on the Warcraft Rumble Machine again to be given the toy.
Fixed a bug that could cause Warcraft Rumble Foils to go missing. If you’re missing a Foil that should have been given to you, click on the Warcraft Rumble Machine to receive the Foil. Multiple clicks can produce multiple missing Foils, if applicable.
When you summon a Warcraft Rumble Toy that’s gained additional looks, you can now interact with that toy to cycle through its earned looks. Each time you change looks, there’s a 5-second cooldown until you can interact with it again.
Blade’s Edge Arena has been temporarily removed from the Arena rotation, for a terrain issue to be addressed.
WoW Classic Era and Hardcore
(With realm restarts) Added additional protections to prevent some deaths via flight-path disconnects. Now when you take a taxi, a protection aura is placed on you that prevents all damage, your hearthstone cooldown is reset, and your hearthstone spell is insta-cast.
Developers’ notes: We have alerts in place that will help us as we continue to monitor and investigate this issue.
Wrath of the Lich King Classic
Adjusted the logic controlling the levels at which player-characters are allowed to queue for dungeons in the Random Dungeon Finder so that it is closer to the range displayed, which was also adjusted. Now, all classic dungeons should allow a range of roughly 8 levels: from 3 levels below the level of the final boss to 5 levels above. Burning Crusade dungeons should now allow a range of 3 levels below the end boss to 3 or 4 levels above it, and Wrath dungeons allow a range that starts at 3 levels below the end boss.
Developers’ notes: The most noticeable effect here is that the minimum level allowed for some dungeons has gone up slightly. This is intended to address situations that arise for players whose level was significantly lower than the rest of the group.
Fixed a bug that could prevent Masked Orphan Matrons from starting the Headless Horseman’s fire events in various towns.
Fixed an issue that sometimes caused Talon King Ikiss in Sethekk Halls to not grant completion credit for the dungeon in Random Dungeon Finder.
Fixed a bug that prevented Death Knights’ tier 10 Sanctified Scourgelord 4-piece damage bonus from working properly.
The “Sinister Calling” step has been removed from the “Hallowed Be Thy Name” achievement.
Developers’ notes: We’ve been working on a permanent fix for the underlying issue here, but we want to alleviate the immediate concern for players with Hallow’s End already underway.
Finally you solved this problem! You solved this problem by shooting yourself in the foot!
Do you know why? Do you know?
I’ll remind you of what you did a few years ago. Let me remind you that you have cut experience gain if there is someone in the party 5 levels higher than you.
