Updated for 11/5/2025 PTR. I don’t see any changes to Gul’dan, but it seems like an engine change may have affected his quests, so the behavior is slightly different than my previous post.
Gameplay Bugs
Echoed Corruption
- The quest counter cannot be increased past 60 by normal means.
- Complete Quests button removes the extra strikes reward
- Complete Quests button does not grant the extra strikes reward
- The lifesteal on Corruption is incorrectly affected by the reduction in healing from allies by 25% from Hunger for Power (4).
- Worth noting that the lifesteal on Corruption does not interact with any damage bonuses from Ruinous Affliction (16), which is likely the correct behavior, but may seem confusing.
Tooltip Issues
Button/Tooltip/GuldanFelFlameTalentPursuitOfFlame- Consistency: Stack loss on death is not in #TooltipNumbers color (using Butcher’s Fresh Meat as reference).
- Does not specify that once completed, stacks are no longer lost upon death.
- Feedback: “Radius” was fine. “Area” is not a useful term for players to assess talent value, and is ambiguous about whether the area improvement is from range or arc size.
Button/SimpleDisplayText/GuldanCorruptionEchoedCorruption- Consistency: Tooltip summaries do not usually have a period at the end
Button/Tooltip/GuldanCorruptionEchoedCorruption- Suggested rephrasing:
(!) Quest: Hit enemy Heroes with Corruption.
(!) Reward: After hitting60heroes, Corruption strikes3additional times in the opposite direction.
(!) Pinnacle Reward: After hitting100heroes, Corruption heals for50%of the damage dealt.
- Suggested rephrasing:
Balance Feedback
Corruption quest at 40 stacks for additional strikes is already quite difficult. I would suggest keeping the first reward at 40. Since the main competing build (Q) was slightly buffed, it should balance out the added Pinnacle option on corruption.
