The Nokhud Offensive

• Granyth
  • Fixed an issue where multiple players could interact with the ballista at the same time and each fire an arrow.
• Teera and Maruuk
  • Fixed an issue where Blessing of Protection allowed players to be immune to the effects of Teera’s Gale Arrow.

I know how the pitch meeting went when they named this dungeon. Something along the line of:
Manager: we need to think a name for this dungeon. What do you think?
Developer: ah man, this dungeon is no good.
Team leader: no kood?
Manager: Nokhud! I like the sound of that! Let it be the bane of every player in the entire game.

Hey all! Here are today’s hotfixes.

January 11, 2023

Dragonriding

• Rebalanced Dragonrider’s Cultivation, increasing the amount to 400% (from 10%) and reducing the duration to 3 sec (from 10 sec). This should provide more of a bonus for those that like to gather on the go.

Dungeons and Raids

• Halls of Valor
  • Adjusted the visual of Sanctify cast by Hyrja in Halls of Valor.
• Mythic+
  • Azure Vaults
    • Fixed an issue where being hit with Thundering while on the translocation path would cause you to repeat the path.
  • Shadowmoon Burial Grounds
    • Ner’zhul
      • Fixed an issue causing Ritual of Bones to regenerate health during combat.
  • Temple of the Jade Serpent
    • Wise Mari
      • Wise Mari will now die immediately and grant players credit for the encounter upon defeat.
    • Lorewalker Stonestep
      • Intensity damage decreased 40%.
      • Agony damage decreased by 40%.
      • Fixed an issue causing the healing bonus from Feeling of Superiority to increase per stack Fixed an issue causing Feeling of Superiority to be able to spread to multiple targets.
        • Developers’ note: We are lowering the damage output of Peril and Strife to account for fixing a bug that was causing the healing increase of Feeling of Superiority to increase per stack.

Items and Rewards

• Fixed an issue with the Hood of Surging Time where the Haste given would be lower than intended if the player’s pet attacked the new target first.

You forgot: "Replaced all Disturbed Dirt Piles and Expedition Scout Packs with Tuskarr Tackleboxes and spawn them all at once with the next restart.

Seriously, what just happened?
Oh, and it did NOT fix the “phasing while doing a rare so it disappears” glitch that keeps happening since some days, had it happen like 10 min. after restart.

As someone who is Dragonscale Expedition Renown 24 this was fun yesterday…

Melidrussa Chillworn

• [With weekly restarts] Reduced the damage of triggering a Hailbomb by 40%.
• [With weekly restarts] Reduced party-wide AoE damage on the initial cast of Hailbombs by 66%
  • Developers’ note: The initial on-cast hit from Hailbombs was never intended to be a large source of damage, and when scaled up on Mythic+ it i s contributing more damage to the fight than we’d like, so we’re reining it in to give healers more breathing room to recover from Melidrussa’s other abilities.

Could we please also change her ‘auto-attack’ to do physical damage rather than magical damage, so that tanks that don’t perform well against magical damage got a decent shot at this dungeon?

[Roarden-doomhammer]

Thank you for dragon riding change! QoL is so much better now.

[Aeternum-burning-legion]

Wow I’m very sad about not seeing any prot warrior buffs. Why not? You should buff prot warriors because i saw some prot warrior streamers who took %1 damage at 20+ mythic keys which is not acceptable. By the way I’m losing %60 of my hp while approaching to a small group of mobs in some 10+ keys with my guardian druid. It’s ok I could lose %100 of my hp too I thank to God for that.

[Ethernity-draenor]

I dont think the change is good as it does not work while flying. You need to be stationary for the 3 seconds after gathering. Nobody does that.

[Dâan-blackhand (Dâan)]

@Aeternum-burning-legion

i saw some prot warrior streamers who took %1 damage at 20+ mythic keys which is not acceptable.

And they were half-naked. Prot Warrior should do that without any piece of gear equipped.

[Roarden-doomhammer]

The whole three seconds. So much time. I don’t even know what to do in that time. Maybe summon the dragon? Or start moving somewhere. Huge amount of time is lost.

Hello everyone! Here are today’s hotfixes:

JANUARY 13, 2023

Dungeons and Raids

• Ruby Life Pools
  • Fixed an issue where Storm Warrior’s Thunderclap was increasing Haste instead of decreasing Haste as the tooltip states.

Player versus Player

• Battlegrounds
  • Evoker’s Time Stop can no longer be used to drop Orbs of Power in Temple of Kotmogu, or flags in Warsong Gulch or Twin Peaks.

[Ethernity-draenor]

You gather from the dragon. You finish gathering and jump in the air. It only works while stationary. Do You even farm?

[Deex-die-aldor]

I hope for more bigger firemamage buffs. This is the first expansion where i can’t keep up with any other spec or class in mythic plus. I hate to be flamed by other players about my dps and i nearly break my fingers to hold all on cd what i have.

Also my dps is not enough to get about m13 so i cant progress anymore.

[Ãnna-silvermoon]

Gurgthock not working again. Would you be so kind and kick this lazy goblin to nuts so he starts doing his job.
Thank you

no pvp changes ? cool

[Ashlein-nordrassil]

@Sanq-11813

Explosive Affix - Hungry Lashers no longer spawn Explosive Orbs.

Do they even test before releasing?

[Alewín-argent-dawn]

@Ashlein-nordrassil

Do they even test before releasing?

No. The large buffs some classes have seen is proof of this.

(And things like in SL when some covenant mission followers got 100% buffs. That’s not required if testing was done to any degree.)
