List of bugs in 11/3/25 PTR

PTR Bug Report
1

This is a list of bugs in the 11/3/25 PTR I have tested and confirmed:

Sylvanas:

  • Black Arrows tooltip displaying incorrectly under Collection

  • Possession missing from Collection

  • Black Arrows tooltip cooldown listed as 1 second

  • Black Arrows tooltip spells Sylvanas as, “Sylvannas”. Also, one instance of “Black Arrows” is not capitalized, and “minions” in “non-minions” is not capitalized

  • Black Arrows baseline quest listed with the Shadow Dagger (W) icon in the Buff Bar

  • Black Arrows pinnacle reward heals Sylvanas for an additional 1% of damage dealt, and this 1% self-healing also incorrectly applies to targets that do not have 3 stacks of Black Arrows applied to them. This also occurs if you select Life Drain at 16, but do not have the 200 stack reward. This sometimes seems to possibly occur without Life Drain selected and without any rewards (?); needs further testing

  • Black Arrows quest does not gain progress from neutral mercenaries or neutral monsters (Sky Temple Guardians, Immortal on BoE during race phase, etc). Also does not gain quest progress from enemy summons. Correctly gains progress from mercenaries already captured by an enemy and enemy monsters (Zerg wave on Braxis, Immortal on BoE if the enemies won it)

  • Black Arrows does not gain quest progress from walls or gates (idk if this is intended or not)

  • Black Arrows quest does not gain progress when hitting targets with 3 stacks of Black Arrows with Wailing Arrow, Haunting Wave, bonus % damage from Overwhelming Affliction (is that a bug?), or secondary shots from Remorseless

  • Unrelenting Torment (level 1) does not increase W duration

  • Haunting Arrows (level 4) tooltip cooldown listed as 1 second

  • Mercenary Queen (level 4) and Haunting Arrows share the same color icon

  • Yellow Action Bar for Haunting Arrows (level 4) mislabeled

  • Lost Soul (level 7) does not grant cdr against neutral mercenaries or monsters, enemy summons, walls, or gates. Correctly grants cdr against heroes, forts/keeps/towers, mercenaries already captured by an enemy, and enemy monsters.

  • Life Drain (level 16) tooltip lists self-healing as 1%; should be 30%

Falstad:

  • Gust slow removed entirely

  • Gathering Storm (level 1) damage bonus is additive (so caps at 150% instead of 70%), tooltip should specify “additional” if this is intended

  • Gathering Storm damage bonus goes to 155% when completed with the “complete quests” button in Try Mode. Otherwise, caps at 150%

  • Dishonorable Discharge (level 1) grants the 30% damage buff from the 20 stack milestone immediately upon selecting the talent. The 20 stack milestone doesn’t do anything. No part of the 45 stack milestone works as intended - it doesn’t add anything. The 75 stack milestone grants a 2 second cooldown reduction, but not the damage increase.

  • Frequent Flyer (level 1) damage bonus is additive, tooltip should specify “additive” if this is intended

  • Frequent Flyer tooltip “Attack Damage” should be capitalized

  • Frequent Flyer damage bonus is not reset when resetting talents in Try Mode

Kerrigan:

  • Baseline Q quest gives the full reward of 325 damage after 75 stacks instead of 125 stacks. It also stops stacking after 75 stacks. It should, per PTR patch notes, grant 125 damage at 75 stacks and 200 damage at 125 stacks

  • Q quest loses 10 stacks upon death

  • Q quest tooltip correctly says it grants 325 damage at 75 stacks, but incorrectly says it grants 200 damage at 125 stacks

  • Q quest progress tracker in the buff bar is bugged to always show 0 bonus damage

  • Impaling Blades tooltip says 0.75 second, instead of 0.75 seconds.

  • Fury of the Swarm (level 1) still grants an additional 10% shield gain from aa’s that stacks with new passive bonus, despite the tooltip suggesting it shouldn’t anymore

  • Fury of the Swarm now grants aa splashes for 3 seconds after using Ravage, instead of just for the next aa

  • Ravaging Ferocity (level 4) does not grant attack speed unless your Q cast actually causes Kerrigan to move. Also grants ~56% attack speed in that case instead of 25% (being applied twice multiplicatively?)

  • Maelstrom deals no damage

  • Because Maelstrom deals no damage, Omegastorm (level 20) also cannot give cdr

  • Ultralisk aa’s are hitting twice against the primary target, instead of hitting once and splashing in an area around them

Thrall:

  • Crash Lightning (level 1) quest reward for 15 stacks (bonus damage) not applying, only applies at 30 stacks

  • Crash Lightning damage bonus in game is 270 instead of the 240 listed in PTR notes (PTR notes just wrong?)

  • Crash Lightning still loses 6 stacks on death beyond the 15 stack milestone. Correctly does not lose stacks anymore beyond the 30 stack milestone.

  • Crash Lightning damage bonus at 30 stacks also applies to the initial target, despite the tooltip only saying the bonus should apply per bounce

  • Crash Lightning damage bonus per bounce does not increase further beyond the first bounce

  • Crash Lightning damage bonus isn’t reset when resetting talents in Try Mode.

  • Echo of the Elements (level 1) tooltip has one instance of “Chain Lightning” that isn’t capitalized

  • Maelstrom Weapon (level 1) pinnacle reward is at 100 stacks instead of the 75 listed in PTR notes (Either PTR notes or in game functionality is incorrect)

  • Healing from Frostwolf’s Grace (level 13) unaffected by the pinnacle reward from Maelstrom Weapon

Valla:

  • Hatred tooltip listed as granting 0% damage and movespeed (this is also on live patch). Hatred itself functions correctly

  • Fire at Will (level 1) tooltip incorrectly says it grants 0 hatred against heroes (this is also on live patch). Fire at Will itself functions correctly

  • Hot Pursuit (level 7) tooltip incorrectly lists movement speed per stack of hatred as 1%. Hot Pursuit itself functions correctly

  • Storm of Vengeance (level 20) does not grant attack speed per stack of hatred; instead it just grants 30% attack speed at 10 stacks of hatred (this is also on live patch)

Raynor:

  • Several tooltips shipped to PTR seemingly on accident: Give ‘Em Some Pepper (trait), Veteran Marksman, Exterminator, Ace in the Hole (level 1’s), Fuel the Rush? (level 7), Give Me More? (level 13). None are functional

Gul’Dan:

  • Pursuit of Flame (level 1) tooltip does not mention that Gul’Dan no longer loses stacks upon quest completion

  • Echoed Corruption (level 1) 60 stack reward does not work. 100 stack reward does work

  • Hunger for Power (level 7) - unsure if it’s supposed to reduce Gul’Dan’s self-healing? It currently does not, except for the newly introduced self-healing from Echoed Corruption

  • Ruinous Affliction (level 16) does not heal Gul’Dan for 50% of the bonus damage dealt when the pinnacle reward for Echoed Corruption is completed

Zul’Jin:

  • Aa damage decrease from 96 > 94 as listed in PTR notes did not actually get changed in game

  • Baseline quest is still capped at 250 bonus damage

  • Berserker tooltip changes depending on whether Berserker is toggled on or off. When off, the tooltip mentions a cap of 1,000 bonus damage (which is only achievable with the “complete quest” button), but when on, the tooltip does not mention a damage cap.

  • Headhunter (level 1) tooltip and buff bar progress not updated from 2% > 2.5% as written in PTR notes

Zagara:

  • Hydralisk tooltip says it deals 0 damage; actual damage dealt by Hydralisk is working as intended

Uther:

  • Hand of Freedom (level 7) tooltip incorrectly says basic attacks grant 0 seconds of cdr. Talent actually functions normally (this is also on live patch)

  • Benediction (level 16) tooltip incorrectly lists cooldown as 0 seconds (this is also on live patch)

Maps/other:

  • Fallback tower not present on Towers of Doom or on Sandbox versions of Volskaya Foundry or Cursed Hollow

  • Fallback towers are keep towers instead of fort towers (unsure if this is intended, if not it means they deal more damage and have more health than intended)

  • Alterac Pass objective capture timer reduced by 5 seconds for each phase (PTR notes stated only “early capture time” was reduced
