War Within and Season of Discovery Hotfixes: September 30th

Staff's Avatar by Staff

We have more hotfixes for retail and Classic today. Delve rewards get slightly buffed, the Stonevault’s door won’t close anymore, and SoD gets some Blackwing Lair fixes and more.

For today’s NA reset tuning you can head here for the raid part, and here for the Mythic+ dungeons.


Classes

  • Mage
    • Alliance mages can now use the Mosswool Polymorph variant, as intended.

Delves

  • Heavy Trunks in a Tier 6 delve now have a chance to grant 1 to 2 reagents (was 1 only).
  • Heavy Trunks in a Tier 7 delve now have a chance to grant 1 to 3 reagents (was 1 only).
  • Heavy Trunks in a Tier 8 delve and above now have a chance to grant 2 to 3 reagents (was 1 only).
  • Fixed an issue where fleeing Nightfall Initiates could fail to count for defeating an enemy group influenced by Zekvir.

Dungeons

  • The Stonevault
    • The door to Master Machinists will no longer erroneously close for players before starting the fight.

Quests

  • Reduced the health, armor, and damage of Lord Banehollow for the quest “When Revenge Burns Green”.

Season of Discovery

  • Losses in Warsong Gulch and Arathi Basin again award 1 Mark of Honor (was 2).
    • Developers’ notes: We’ve ended this experiment, as it provided too much incentive to lose quickly and get into another match.
  • Blessing of Shirvallah should no longer buff the bad guys in Zul’Gurub.
  • Addressed an issue that could cause the Cenarion Hold hitching post to be unusable during the hunter quest “Everyone Knows That Bugs Can’t Fly.”
  • Blackwing Lair
    • Fixed an issue that occasionally prevented the Trials from triggering after a soft reset in Blackwing Lair.
    • Vaelastrasz the Corrupt
      • Players’ own bonus damage modifiers will no longer amplify the damaging effects of Burning Adrenaline.
