The Opera Hall: Wikket

Quests
Resolved an issue that sometimes caused the player to not mount the carpet during the “Magic Carpet Ride” quest.
Aoe effects on Curator appear as a lot bigger zones then they should even tho its been said it was fixed. Sparks bugging out standing in one place sometimes all on the other side of room. Rejuvenation on mobs around Moroes’ room is constantly casted even if people properly interrupt it, increase cd of it to 10sec or something dunno man. Is there anyone at blizzard able to read logs to see why people die all the time at sertain pulls.

Fixed an issue where Group Finder listings would be removed for certain players when moving between zones.
Fixed an issue where the Talent Specialization’s role could be set to tank after changing zones.
Developers’ note: The intention here is that this role selection should always default to DPS, and can be set by players based on how they want to describe their talent builds.

Fixed an issue that didn’t allow the auction of certain items carried over from Burning Crusade Classic.
Player versus Player
Updated the current Battleground Bonus Weekend to Warsong Gulch (was Strand of the Ancients).
Random Battleground Queue no longer shows up for players below level 80.
Fixed a crash when inspecting another player and opening the PvP tab.
Quests
For the quest “Runeforging: Preparation for Battle,” Instructor Razuvious will now (begrudgingly) provide a spare Runed Soulblade for Death Knights who have managed to misplace theirs.
Developers’ note: The Opera events in Lower Karazhan have proven to be more lethal than we’d like, particularly given the weekly rotation that makes them more challenging to master in Mythic+. We’ve made a number of adjustments here in hopes of bringing the difficulty of these events in line with our expectations.
The Opera Hall: Beautiful Beast
Silver Forks health reduced by 50%.
Silver Forks Bloody Jab damage over time reduced by 50%.

Wrath of the Lich King Classic
Druid
Shapeshifting into Cat Form once again automatically activates Track Humanoids.
Fixed an issue that prevented Tauren from using the Barber Shop.
It will now rain blood when Highlord Darion Mograine says “The skies turn red with the blood of the fallen!” during the Death Knight quest “The Light of Dawn.“
Fixed an issue where the Dark Ranger customization options for Blood Elf, Night Elf, and Void Elf were missing.
Wrath of the Lich King Classic
Whirlwind animations, such as the Warrior’s Whirlwind and a Rogue’s Fan of Knives, will now appear while moving (was only while standing still).
Druid
Track Humanoids will no longer activate when shapeshifting into Cat Form if Find Minerals, Find Fish, or Find Herbs is already active.
Rogue
Fixed an issue where Overkill would be applied and immediately removed on rogues who did not know that talent.
True to their vocation, Argent Outfitters will now exchange Necrotic Runes for armor and other items in Orgrimmar, Thunder Bluff, and Silvermoon City. They will make their way to the Undercity once enough Scourge have been defeated across Azeroth.
During the quest “City of Light,” Khadgar’s Servant will now continue giving its tour even if the player is not nearby.
Zombies are no longer unstoppable by benefitting from Preparation at the start of battlegrounds. Alterac Valley weekend is saved!
Gathering nodes will now have a sparkling visual effect when being tracked.
Fixed an issue where Group Finder activity level ranges were not correct. They should now more closely match the levels of the Meeting Stones for those dungeons.
Players can now list and browse the Group Finder for dungeons that are below their level.
Latency and other performance information is now visible in the tooltip of the Game Menu button.
Anduin Wrynn – Domination Word: Pain, Hopelessness, Hopebreaker, Blasphemy (Hopelessness/Overconfidence), Lost Soul, Wicked Star, Empowered Wicked Star
Lords of Dread – Fearful Trepidation, Anguishing Strike, Cloud of Carrion, Paranoia
Tazavesh: Soleah’s Gambit
Hylbrande
Added an extra action button for depositing or dropping Bypass Codes in addition to manually interacting with the Security Panel.
Developers’ note: Blind players are reporting difficulties with Bypass Codes because they are unable to drop them and they are unable to complete the mechanic using just /follow. We have implemented this alternative method to give players an opportunity to drop Bypass Codes so other players can grab them.
Wrath of the Lich King Classic
Paladin’s Seal of Corruption can no longer be dispelled.
The PvP window should now move or hide itself as necessary when other UI is opened.
Fixed a very rare issue where a player could be unable to access their second talent specialization after learning Dual Talent Specialization.
Fixed an issue where the bonus armor was not being granted on some rings.
High Test Eternium Fishing Line that was applied prior to Wrath of the Lich King Classic pre-patch should now correctly grant +5 Fishing Skill (was +2).
Added safeguards for an issue where Bypass Code auras may not apply to players who pick them up.
Wrath of the Lich King Classic
Brewfest’s Coren Direbrew dungeon is now available in the Group Finder for players over level 68.
It is now possible to get the Brewfest quest “Another Year, Another Souvenir” which rewards this year’s Brewfest Stein.
Fixed an issue where the Glyph of Horn of Winter prevented other Death Knights in your raid or party from using Horn of Winter.
Fixed an issue with Warrior’s Warbringer talent which prevented Intervene from breaking root effects.
Call to Arms Battlegrounds now reward the proper bonus Honor.
Quests that did not display completion text when being watched have been fixed and should display the text on what to do next under the objective tracker.
Resolved an issue that could allow players to gain mana regeneration from food summoned by Mages.
Wrath of the Lich King Classic
Raids will now count towards the 5 instance-per-hour limit.
Developers’ notes: The hourly instance limit prevents players from entering instances that they’ve entered at least once already within the last hour. With this change, farming a dungeon should not prevent you from entering a raid instance, so long as you don’t attempt to reset and re-enter that raid instance multiple times.
maybe hotfix the 3 hour queues for Gehennas players. resources much better spent there then to just scrap the entire RDF and rework it while literally 5% of the playerbase wanted that! How do you justify selling us a subscription for a game we can’t even play! Some of us have jobs that we have to go to, only to come home and find out we can’t even play the game! This is just absolutely crazy in my opinion and you should be ashamed of yourselves.
Fixed several issues where Quaking could damage players in cases where they were unable to react.
Wrath of the Lich King Classic
The maximum amount of in-game currency that can be transferred to another realm is now 500g for player-characters at levels 10-30, 2,500g at levels 31-50, and 25,000g at level 51 or higher.
Players who enter a battleground while mounted on a flying mount or while shapeshifted into Flight Form will now return to their flying mount or shapeshift form upon exiting the battleground.
Fixed an issue where skill level requirements were not enforced when casting the Skinning spell from your spell book.
Fixed an issue causing Wartook Iceborn to sometimes disappear during the quest “Across Transborea.”
Fixed an issue in “The Battle for The Undercity” where King Varian Wrynn was attacking an NPC that should not be part of the event.
Fixed an issue with the quest “Mission: Plague This!” where Greer Orehammer would not offer another flight to players who already had Orehammer’s Precious Bombs in their inventory.
Fixed an issue with “The Last Rites” quest where a player could cause Thassarian to become stuck under certain conditions.
Brewfest
The Dark Iron Brewer in Blackrock Depths will now correctly drop his Mug of Dire Brew when sufficiently drunk. Bottoms up!
Karazhan
Nightbane no longer requires completion of the associated questline and can now be summoned by any player using the Blackened Urn object on the balcony.
Utgarde Pinnacle
Grauf should no longer regenerate to full health when flying off if it is not killed within a single pass during the Skadi the Ruthless encounter.
