Dragonflight Hotfixes - July 22

There’s still an issue with paying subscription players who do not own Dragonflight being unable to communicate in /say, /emote or /yell. It’s been a problem since Remix started. Any updates on when or if this will be fixed?

I would love to know what your metrics are on this one, for once.

There are just way too many players stating they did not kill many frogs, give us a number, and out us to show how many we did kill, prove to us that we are ‘froggers’, I volunteer to be the first person you publicly shame on how many frogs I killed to prove I killed too many, I dare you, you aint got the balls to do it.

Man this 3 day rule is weird, this farm was up for like a week or week and a half. I myself killed frogs just 1h before nerf came out and i don’t have bronze q. Also if this is true this would explain why some people are still running around with milions of HP post nerf. Its just because they did frog farm after first 3 days right? I too would love to see what metric is used here because to me it seems it was mostly random lazy checks of stats.

Too bad they will never tell us, even when I egg them on they will just ignore it, or at worst give me a forum vacation for calling them out. I know some personally who never frog farmed, they just went HAM and still got nerfed.

Honestly even if people lied, there is no way 100% of us lied, and that’s just those who actually got nerfed, there was plenty under the threshold who didn’t get the quest, there is no way a sane person can claim they gained an advantage.

Classes

  • Shaman
    • Restoration
      • Resolved an issue causing the Restoration Shaman Season 4 two-piece class set bonus to be cancelled when a Healing Stream Totem expires while two or more Healing Stream Totems are active.
    • Warlock
      • Affliction
        • Resolved an issue causing Drain Life to sometimes incorrectly consume mana while Soul Rot is active.
      • Warrior
      • Protection
      • Battle-Scarred Veteran has been updated. Now, when a damage event reduces your health below 30%, the portion of that damage event that would apply to the last 30% of your health is also reduced by 80%.
        • Developers’ notes: For example, if you are at 50% health and receive damage for 40% of your health, your damage taken will be 20% + 20% * (1-0.8), or 24%, and you will have 26% health remaining when Battle-Scarred Veteran activates.

Player versus Player

  • Evoker
    • Resolved an issue causing the dispel effect from Scouring Flames to fail on targets near the edge of Fire Breath.

Quests

  • The questgivers for Renown quests in Valdrakken now again offer the “Continued Waygate Exploration” quests.

WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria

  • Endgame tuning adjustments have been made to Heroic Scenarios, Heroic Dungeons, and Normal Raids so that they increase in power more slowly between levels 60 and 70. Heroic and Mythic raids have been adjusted so there is a smoother transition between them.
  • Players who completed the Pearlfin Jinyu questline can now bring Lesser Charms of Good Fortune to Elder Lusshan for additional reputation.
  • Players who completed the Forest Hozen questline can now bring Lesser Charms of Good Fortune to Chief Kah Kah for additional reputation.
  • Fixed a bug that inadvertently capped the maximum stats that can be gained on a Cloak of Infinite Potential. That cap has been removed.
  • Shado Pan Assault reputation earned per boss kill increased to 1000 (was 300). This amount is available daily.
  • Elder Great Turtles and Ancient Spineclaws have migrated back to the Timeless Shore, which should benefit players who are just Killing Time.
  • Illusion: Sha Corruption can now be destroyed by players who have already learned it elsewhere.
  • Adjusted and tuned several gem effects:
    • Arcanist’s Edge absorb amount (that can be converted into damage) has been doubled.
    • Fervor health amounts (that can be converted into damage) has been doubled.
    • Righteous Frenzy damage dealt to targets increased to 2% per second (was 1%).
      • Developers’ notes: This should give healers a bit more to do while optimizing their group’s damage, and it should make some gem combinations even more interesting.
    • Searing Light collected healing points increased to 10% (was 7%).
    • Slay cannot critically strike.
      • Developers’ notes: Slay still hits for the player’s entire health amount, and will remain an incredibly powerful option.
    • Ward of Salvation no longer applies a heal absorb. It has been reworked so that the caster’s heals are duplicated as an absorb shield, but not other sources of healing.
      • Developers’ notes: Ward of Salvation will remain a powerful way for healers to deliver some additional damage, but should not trivialize the most difficult raid encounters.

While I admit that the Yak Fur clogging up the mailbox was annoying, can we get a fix for the Tusks not being learnable by all classes? Soon?

Any notes to go with today’s extended maintenance? :slight_smile: hopefully a way to turn off Awakened raids?

Is fated going to be applied to the other two raids or not?

This is fine…but while you’re tweaking some animations, please fix Frost DK with not knowing when it is taking out/putting away a two handed weapon. It doesn’t know that the class can dual wield and NOT dual wield -_-

Why mess with PVP this late in the expansion? It still seems so unbalanced and some classes feel like they just have incredibly overpowered talents, escapes and CC’s. Would love a better explanation as to how and why these changes are made? Is it solely based off player complaints? Is it based on the top performing players? It it based on players who have YouTube channels and relationships with devs? Just seems like an average player like myself (not HC pvper) struggles to make any progress and then gets hit with a nerf while other classes just seemed to get buffed over and over. I would just like to understand better how these decisions are made.

This felt like a good, noticeable change.

Please fix “To The Test: Rune of Shadowbinding”. Its been bugged as long as the Taut quest before it, yet y’all only fixed that one and not the follow-up quest.
