WoW Hotfixes – Updated May 27

I’m glad to see someone finally mention this. It has been driving me crazy. I have all these hats for him, and I keep trying to put them on, only to find out he took it off again mere minutes or even seconds later for some reason. I don’t want to keep having to ask him to wear his hat every two steps. >…<

Seriously this, I went through all 25 of my 60’s a few weeks ago and did the skip so I could at least farm the weekly boss, and now they’re all at about 500-1000 into Neutral. Not retroactively boosting those of us who did the skip prior to this hotfix is a bit cruel.

See all the white in this picture, makes me cry. https://www.screencast.com/t/TurF9yLspGvt

Is this going to be resolved for those that already skipped? My alt cannot make relevant legendaries now and is so far behind its not even worth the effort

And for that matter, why the hell is Tome of the Eternal rep locked anyway? I did the stupid quest, I played the content I’ve already seen. Why does this need also for me to fly in circles getting chests and world quests… again? Im 4k+ into revered on my main already!

Ok so I leveled another alt to 60.

That’s more than my toons that I skipped on and have done just the world boss weekly 3 times (they’re at 1.5k). Had they started with 1975 they’d be Friendly now.

What in the world are you thinking to nerf fights now? Save those changes till next week. This raid has brought the first level of excitement to the game for years with how close it is between the top two guilds. Let the race finish first.

Can you make Frost DK survivable in quest content please? Pretty please?

Nice, another hotfix goes live, and hunters remain untouched in leveling bgs.

This, despite the fact that they could receive an aura that applies a flat 50% damage output reduction on everything they do and not only would they remain absolutely completely fine, they’d still be highly competitive.

This drop rate sucks! As pretty much every one knows. How about the drop rate for the Vespoid Lattice? I don’t mind farming don’t get me wrong. But I’ve been farming for over a week now with NO drops! I know it’s not suppose to drop 100% even 50% or so but not even a 1% drop rate at this moment. I’ve killed at least 10+k vespoids in all areas there are and would hope that Blizzard might change or fix the drop rate?

Hmm… still not fixed. Blizzard are you paying attention?

Now that the Retribution 2pc has had it’s bug hotfixed is there any chance Paladin set bonuses will be looked at in terms of performance?

Currently they have underperforming set bonuses, ontop of a class that is already struggling with performance, whilst not providing any baseline raid utility (BoP etc is niche, Devo aura is not unique and typically brought by the better performing Holy and Prot specs).

Melee already has typically struggled with raid slots, and when compared to almost all other classes it falls short.
When “take the player not the class” is the mission Paladins fail in this objective, because there is every reason to choose another option and no reason to choose the Paladin.
