Wrath of the Lich King Classic Hotfixes - Updated 9 January

Here’s today’s hotfix update for Wrath Classic:

OCTOBER 5, 2022

Wrath of the Lich King Classic

  • Updated Random Battleground rewards to the correct Honor values.
  • The Blessings gained from freeing Webbed Crusaders in the Valley of Echoes, and the Greater Blessing of Might, Prayer of Fortitude, and Battle Shout gained from freeing prisoners during the quest Prisoners of Wyrmskull, are now removed if a player logs out, enters an instance, or travels to another continent.
  • Band of the Kirin Tor, Ring of the Kirin Tor, Signet of the Kirin Tor, and Loop of the Kirin Tor can now be fully refunded at vendors within 2 hours of purchase; similar to the upgraded tiers of these rings.
  • Fixed an issue where some multi-rank talents would not function correctly after changing zones.

Thanks! Now could you please remove the carets (up- and down pointing mini-triangles) next to nodes, Questgivers etc. in the mini-map. They do not belong in Classic, as they came with Legion pre-patch.

Divine Storm?

Hello everyone! Here are the hotfixes that arrived in Wrath Classic today:

OCTOBER 6, 2022

Wrath of the Lich King Classic

  • Meeting Stones no longer have a maximum level cap.
  • Fixed an issue with Mal’Ganis failing to be defeated at 1% health in the Culling of Stratholme.
  • Fixed an issue with “Make Them Pay” and “No Mercy” that caused the objectives to show as completed upon accepting the quests.
  • Fixed an issue where “Call to Arms: Isle of Conquest” was part of the daily battleground quest rotation prior to Isle of Conquest’s release.
  • Fixed an issue where some players can become stuck and unable to queue for Wintergrasp.
  • Archavon now correctly drops 2 Emblems of Valor.
  • Titanium Ore can no longer be prospected.
    • Developers’ note: The ability to prospect Titanium Ore will return in the Trial of the Crusader patch 3.4.2 when epic gems are introduced. We’re not going to remove Titanium Powder from those who did prospect the ore but know that the Powder cannot be used to turn in for Jewelcrafter Tokens until 3.4.2 either.

Thanks! Now please remove the small carets (the up and down pointing small triangles) next to nodes, Questgivers etc. in the mini-map. They do not belong in Classic as they were implemented in Legion pre-patch.

PS: Also fix Paladins’ Divine Storm animation. Please!

Here’s today’s hotfix update for Wrath Classic:

OCTOBER 7, 2022

Wrath of the Lich King Classic

  • When Engineering Tinker enchantments are activated, they now trigger their cooldown for all other engineering tinker enchantments that can be equipped in the same slot, as well as duplicates of their enchantment. This includes Mind Amplification Dish, Nitro Boosts, Hand-Mounted Pyro Rocket, Hyperspeed Accelerators, Personal Electromagnetic Pulse Generator, Flexweave Underlay, Frag Belt, and Springy Arachnoweave.
  • Master Elemental Shaper Krixix in Blackwing Lair is now guaranteed to drop the Goblin’s Guide to Elementium.
  • Fixed an issue that prevented two Shaman relics, Savage Gladiator’s Totem of the Third Wind and Hateful Gladiator’s Totem of the Third Wind, from functioning properly.
  • Various buffs gained from world events and quests such as Darkmoon Faire will now cancel when players enter any instance.
  • Shaman Sentry Totem no longer stops the player in mid air when cast.
  • Fixed an issue where players were unable to re-enter the Vault of Archavon instance to resurrect.
  • Fixed an issue with the achievement Share the Love in Heroic Gundrak, where use of player immunities such as Divine Intervention and Hand of Protection could prevent earning the achievement without leaving and re-entering the instance.
  • Fixed an issue with Strand of the Ancients where same-faction battleground teams disguised as the opposite faction would be sent to the wrong graveyard upon death.
  • Fixed an issue with the highest ranks of party and raid buffs where they were appearing incorrectly on unit frames during combat.

‘Trollflay’ actually going to be fixed? This has been around since start of beta…you fix issues that ain’t as important to the players, have some sort of priority list?

Reducing the honor of items is your way Of addressing wintergrasp exploit honor gains?

Is it possible to enable free migrations from the newly locked realms (7th October). This would help to populate other servers such as Ashbringer which would greatly benefit from players moving from Earthshaker, for instance.

Here are today’s hotfixes for Wrath Classic:

OCTOBER 10, 2022

Wrath of the Lich King Classic

  • Naxxramas
    • Fixed an issue where Kel’Thuzad would damage the main tank with Frost Blast, in addition to a random raid target. Frost Blast will now only hit the main tank if the primary target of Frost Blast is standing near the main tank, or the main tank is not the highest threat target.
  • Fixed issue with Strand of the Ancients where same-faction battleground teams disguised as the opposite faction would be sent to the wrong graveyard upon death.
  • Fixed an issue where Hyperspeed Accelerators could not be used in the same macro as spells and abilities.
    • Developers’ note: Due to the nature of this fix, Hyperspeed Accelerators’ on-use effect no longer shares a partial cooldown with on-use Trinkets as they once did. For now, this is known and intended, but we may attempt a different fix in a future patch to resolve the macro issue above which no longer allows this and puts engineering glove tinkers and on-use trinkets back onto a shared cooldown.

And please, pretty please remove those carets from the minimap.

Carets: Those small up or down pointing triangles telling you something is above or below you. They do not belong in Clkassic as they were added in Legion Pre-patch.

What is this?

To Linxy.
Hello, can you please ask developers to consider allowing Engineers to apply Mind Amplification Dish enchant onto Engineer made helmet like Weakness Spectralizers.
The reason why blizzard initially decided that enchant should not be applicable is because
the helmet already has so called “one use” ability which is looking far into the distance.
But honestly, its not very fare to engineers and its not going to be game breaking to allow us have both look into distance and be able to mind cc people.
Thank you for looking into it

@Linxy @Kaivax - In case you didn’t notice the mounts with the ability to carry a passenger(s) are bugged. I completed my Mechano-hog today and nobody in my party can use the sidecar. Same for my guildie with the Traveler’s Tundra Mammoth. There have been threads about this bug for weeks on reddit and these forums, yet there’s only radio silence from you guys. Surely you aren’t unaware of the issue?

Hey Linxy, please have your co-workers look over “Divine Storm” animation as I have been waiting 13 years to experience this class again at it’s fullest greatness. Knowing that 80% of animation is missing each time I cast Divine Storm (…every 10 seconds…!) I am reminded of how scuffed my character is with this incorrect animation.

13 years. I wait. For this single spell. That’s how cool it is (when it’s the real one).
