Hotfixes: June 26, 2019

Known Issues:

Keyboard

  • We are aware of an issue with some keyboards either not responding or taking awhile to respond. This appears to be related to several addons. As a temporary workaround we recommend disabling your addons or resetting your User Interface.

Quests
The Doppel Gang

  • We are looking into reports that the rare mob, Doppel Ganger, cannot be summoned.

Payment in Kind

  • We are looking into reports that Anduin is not visible in Stormwind. Initial investigation has revealed that other quests could interfere with Anduin being available, such as “Shores of Fate” which is part of the Darkshore quest chain.

Items

Waterlogged Toolbox:

  • Not a bug: This container can drop unique items such as: Germinating Seed, Chum, and Brinestone Pickaxe. If you have one of these unique items in your inventory, you will not be able to open another Waterlogged Toolbox if it is attempting to grant a second unique item. Use the unique item in your inventory/bank to be able to open your toolbox.

Resolved:

Tempered Blade

  • We are looking into reports of not being able to turn in this quest.

Scouting the Pens:

  • The Call Neri buff can be removed, requiring characters to return to Newhome to interact with the conch before being able to turn in the quest.

Descent:

  • We are aware of a situation where Oceuleth is repeatedly returning characters to the top of the waterwall for the quest Descent.

Shadowed Halls and Dusty Cogs:

  • During the questline for the Gnome Heritage Armor the Prototype Arcane Engine will sometimes be uninterractible.

What Will it Grow?

  • We are looking into reports from players who were able to receive the Germinating Seed, start and complete the quest “What Will it Grow?” without knowing Rank 1 for Zin’anthid gathering, therefore not learning rank 2.

They Made Their Choice:

  • We are looking into reports that Janius and Shandris are stuck, or missing which is preventing some players from being able to turn in this quest.

Zem’lan’s Lost Treasure Map:

  • We are aware of an issue with the maximum stack of Fragments of Zem’lan’s Lost Treasure Map preventing players from removing them from their mail.
